This is the part 2 post for the trail of the beautiful horses competition. Prizes are split between the owner of the horses and the "presenter". Everyone has a turn as an owner and a "presenter". The prizes are 150k for first place, 100k for second place and 50k for 3rd (remember this is split between owner and presenter). The person you are presenting for is the person that posted before you. Remember to very clearly put down the name of the person you are choosing for. Please put down their IDs and your IDs so its easy to distribute prize money.

For this competition you will pick out 5 horses.

Here are the requirements. Please note some are minimum. So must have one. Some are maximum. So do not have to have, and can only have one.

Minimum of 1 show pony (Aka altered)
Minimum of 1 stallion
Minimum of 1 mare
Minimum of 1 foal
Minimum of 1 adult

Maximum of 1 fantasy OR closed gene
Maximum of 1 bought horse (so not bred by owner. Hint: If they don't have closed genes but bought a show pony maybe...?)
Maximum of 1 Foundation (GMTed or otherwise)

Remember you are only picking out 5 horses so it is essential that at least some horses fit two of the requirements.

Entries will close the 25th. Voting will close the 28th. Prizes will be given by by the 31st. Edit: think I will close entries when everyone signed up has made their post. Then voting will continue for 3 days after that.

Winners will be chosen by popular vote via the "thanks" button. Anyone, even if you haven't entered may cast their vote. Just remember to come back later on in the competition so all entries have an even chance of getting seen.

Please put any questions on the old post. This way this can only be entries and anyone voting can easily scroll down the list. Someone will reply on there and I can decide whether to edit this post to include the information.

I can't wait to see the entries! Good luck everyone!

Edit: just wanted to say now before we had issues that if there is a tie I will be the tie breaker.

Update on question from other post

Yes you may vote on multiple groups of horses, but please don’t go crazy with this as I only have placings through 3rd place and would rather not go to tiebreaker.

****----Entries and voting are closing the evening of the 29th. But please note if you enter your horses on the 29th then most likely voters will not be able to see your entry so you will be at a severe disadvantage. Please post your horses ASAP.

Please post all horses on one post. Otherwise the voting gets confused.

*************-------------------Closed! Doing my counting now. Please don't vote anymore

Results:

There was a tie for 1st place, but I was the tiebreaker vote.

In first place getting 75k each

HTRanch representing duelinghawks!

In second place getting 50k each

ParadisePark representing fj1482lingha

In 3rd place getting 25k each is

deulinghawks representing CeffylDwr

Looks like all these players have been on here enough to recieve direct cash. I am sending first and second place prizes right now, and 3rd place in the morning after show bonus. Congratulations to all!

I had a few ideas of how to improve this for next time. I will update as I remember more. If you have suggestions please drop them below.

Firstly I am going to break us into 2 distinct groups. "Senior" players and "new" players. This would further help the even out the balance and help us break into teaching pairs. This would also clarify who is representing who.

I got SandycreekFarm (ID 441).

Altered:
I love, love homozygous pearl, especially on blacks. It really stands out to me, and as an added bonus, this beauty carries sooty+ and tobiano. With the satin, he looks so shimmery. I love this combo!

Raptor Disclosed

Stallion:
I quite admire chinchilla, but could not afford it this time. I'd like to think that if I'd have bought into it, I'd have a horse that is as striking as this boy.

Mare:
I love pearl and I love DP. 'Nuff said.

Regardless of if/when the rest of the (3?) people post I am closing entries AND voting on the night of the 29th. I will then count and distribute awards. I am leaving the 30th on another trip but should be on on the evening enough to coordinate selling horses for prize money (If the winning players are too "young" to directly receive money)
