Guess The Color Contest: Win A Free Stallion! (Winners posted!)
-
I have way too many stallions so I am holding a contest to give away some of my boys that I do not use much. There are some gems in my giveaway list so don't think that you are getting my garbage.
First of all the potential prizes: Click Me! I will probably give away approximately half of these boys so there will be multiple winners. Now onto the contest part.
Rules:
1) Each player has one chance to enter. If you wish to change your guesses please edit your original post, as only the first attempted entry by any player will be considered.
2) Players may repeat guesses made by other players if desired.
3) Tie breakers will be determined by flipping a coin or random draw.
4) Only one guess is allowed per cross.
5) You do not have to submit a guess for all crosses.
6) 2 points will be earned for a correct part of your guess, 1 point will be deducted for an incorrect part of your guess. 4 bonus points will be awarded for 100% correct guesses.
The Game:
I have 8 planned breeding crosses. I am planning to breed them on March 8th, the contest will close once those breedings occur.
Your goal is to guess the color of the foal that will result from each cross. For example you might guess Bay Pearl Appaloosa for a cross and if the foal turned out to be a Bay Appaloosa 3 points would be awarded (1 point deduction for the incorrect pearl guess). If you guessed Bay and the foal turned out to be a Bay Splash Tobiano 2 points would be awarded. (Incorrect penalties are not assessed for guesses you don't make, such as the splash and tobiano in this case.)
The players with the most points will win. I will PM winners and ask them to choose a stallion as their prize, the 1st place winner will get first choice, 2nd place winner will get second choice etc.
Crosses will be posted shortly along with an example entry.SALVISTAR PERFORMANCE HORSES

Hey everyone, the contest is closed. I goofed an accidentally bred the mare in Cross 3 to the wrong stallion, (I should not be breeding late at night). However, the other 7 breedings will be taking place as planned very soon. Stay tuned for results! Then there will probably be a day or two of delay while I calculate scores before I announce the winners.SALVISTAR PERFORMANCE HORSES

@Ritsika I might do that if I have a bunch that I don't want, but I tend to be more ruthless with my stallys and I still don't have much horses at all! Maybe when I get a basic account I'll reconsider.Producer of Volcanic Glass Drafts. Lapisobsidianus.
