Thrills and spills

Hello dear howrsers!

My summer has been a  jam packed one, I've even had a two week hiatus from Howrse, because my laptop broke down :( Now they are fixing it and I have a old PC for use that is almost as old as me lol, but works like clockwork! Talking about age, I celebrated my 18th birthday recently! So, bear in mind that when you want to message me, kids, you are talking with an (not-so)adult :P

Tanya has given me one more skiller: Ravensdale. He is her last foal, because Tanya's health is already decreasing and I don't want to risk losing foals. But Kept Secret is in foal for the first time! I bred her with best available horse(a purebred Lusitano) on Howrse and let's see what comes out! c:

Opal has turned out to be a superb trail class horse! He always comes back with golden throphies! I hope that one day, when I have skilled him enough, he will earn me a rosette or two c: #bhfdreams

A skiller that I once bought, Triton, has been standing in my stable doing nothing. I have tried to sell him, but my prices seem to be too high oops. Anyways, he is available, just mail me with an offer!

The maze event is back, but this time it's simpler: you can move more than ever before and instead of one maze there are many small mazes with prizes at the end of each. I am currently aiming for the new Drum horse c: I even found a vintage Apple and used it on Fine Design, who is now a flaxen chestnut Akhal-Teke of the old version c:

It's Hellboy's first week at the Grand Prix! Fingers crossed everyone! I hope he does well and manages to break my personal placing records! Current record is 720-something held by Fusion at trot race.

I have nothing else to write currently, but you can check out some horses with new coats I have managed to put on c: See them yourself ---> Fine Design, Taeyon, Attila(Ow's Helios' ray background).

See ya!

BHF is you ded??

Holy moly, it's been 2 months already! Phew! I am sorry for being away for so long, I had a though last period in school, but now it is officially over and the summer holidays are here! Weeheee! More time for blog! I've always had time for Howrse and I'll tell you what has happened c:

Tanya is retired and is currently "working" as a broodmare and besides Capricorn, she has given me 4 more future Grand Prix horses: mares Mrs. Dalloway and Fine Desing, and stallions Fair Play and Taeyon. They all look promising and I am in the middle of training them. Capricorn is doing nicely in comps and seems to exceed the most in cross country.

I wasted some money and bought a new skiller: Hellboy, a purebred KWPN stallion. I have already fully trained him and he has started competing. I also gave him a Golden Apple today that should soon retire c:

Btw, from now on, all my GP horses will have an Apollo's Lyre.

Currently, Pinata event is on and I am just playing and walking along, I won't get anything because I don't want to waste my passes c: Click onto my pinata and I'll click yours! In these two months a board game event has also been on, but I didn't earn anything special from there, so no news here...

But today, BHF made history...the Golden Fleece promotion is on and when I scratched it...*tears of happyness* I got Opal! It took me five years after Jade to get a divine! Yass, thank you lord of luck, I had already lost faith in you! But I have to admit he is kind of not so great, because I basically only have a bigger chance to get diamonds when I feed him carrots and that's just about it. At least I can add him skills using diamonds, this thing is pretty interesting, but it also means I will waste more diamonds and have less for promotions. Oh well, it's a two sided thing, like every good thing in this world. And a little picture proof for you too c:

This is it for this time, I hope I'll see you guys again soon :P

Sad vs. happy

Good evening fellow Howrsers!

Today was a bit of a frustration day to me. Sometimes, we all have them, don't we? But I also had some positive stuff too, so no reason to get depressed here! Read on to find out c:

I was just randomly checking some crossbreds I had bred and sold on and discovered this...
(Click on the pictures for a bigger version)

 Nice to see that my pwetty Terra Cota is being taken care of nicely c:

Hang on...

See this? 312 wins in dressage! Oh my god! I've sold a complete champion! Oh why, BHF, WHYY?! Let's say I don't have the eye for the champions, but I am pretty sure that it is almost impossible for anyone to tell if a horse is going to be a great-ass competitor or not. At the end, I am actually over the moon that I have managed to breed such an amazing horse! I think I have not done it before, so wohooo! :D

Oh and Terra Cota is daughter of Spectra, my retired throphy horse!

Second thing that frustrated me today was the Titan's challenge. I paid 20 diamonds for this and failed at level 3 to only receive a Helios Ray. And I was there like... 

 Why did I even bother?

Now, off to the happier news :P Fusion set a new record in the Grand Prix! He finished 822th this Tuesday in trot race! I have lately taken him to rides only to get more skills and seems like it helps! Another step closer to 500! (Though I doubt he will ever reach that point, I may need a better horse)

Amarita's first offsprings have completed training and have drifted off to competitions world! I have to admit, they do really well, just like their mother! I am especially proud of Alexander, who has proved to be Amarita's best offspring so far! I hope they all will be as or even more amazing!

That's it for today! I planned to do a Yay or Nay on the Maze event but...next time, please? :D

Anyways, have a good day!

Halloween fun!

Happy Halloween everyone! I have a lot to tell you today c: So while you are not carving your pumpkins, take a look at these...


I've been spending my passes. First I bought the seal of Apocalypse and put it on Amarita. I really wanted Pestilentia, but got Bellum instead. That sucks, I always get the smallest bonuses. Actually, since Amarita is a comp horse, that skill bonus won't do bad c: Right now the Magic Hat promotion is on and that's how I am left with one pass right now :D I put it on Amaretto and got evil witch! Watch out, when you join a competition with Amaretto, he'll give you three penalty points! Mwahahaha! lol :D

Trakehners have reached the 3000 GP line and some have already broken the 4000 line. Of course I breed my mares to the best ones, I really hope some 3000s come out there! Fingers crossed!

How's things with Fusion, the GP prospect? Not as I expected. He excels at trot races and truly, has brought me home many throphies, but he is always in top 2000 in Grand Prix...Gotta train him more! I know, that one day we will get that 500...

 In today's yay or nay...

Trick or Treat

Cons:

• Possible to win lots of prizes!
• You can read the story of Buchephalus, when you are bored.
• If you are out of treats, you can buy them from flash sales.
• Simple and fun, the latter for young audience mostly.

Pros:

• If you want to get more treats, you have to spend passes.
• Flash sales treats are expensive.
• Children may play a trick on you if you don't give them (right) treats.
• The progress is slow, if you don't use passes or spend equus, you will not get the divine.
• At one point, kids will start to pile up and you may not have enough treats.

 The verdict:
The game is really simple, but requires lots of money and passes if you want to aim for the divine and bigger prizes. This is a loss.


Yes, I was not so lazy this time and made a yay or nay, so please enjoy! :)

Happy trick or treating!

Grand Prix prospect

Heya! It's been a while again and I have quite a bunch of stuff to tell you about!

I have made a decision: If I want to get better results, I shall breed better horses and better horses don't come from mares that have a BLUP below 0. So I decided, that I won't breed my mares if their BLUP is negative. I'll wait if it turns positive. I will try that and see if I get better foals outta my mares.

I got my Arabian coats trophy! Hooray!

Pinatas are back! Yay! I am already on my third pinata, how about you? And as always, click my pinata please! c: I will try and click everyone's pinatas I happen to spot at the friends section. Fell free to friend me for pinata clicks! :)

And the fourth one is the most exciting news! Well, at least for me. I have been entering Amarita and Blackbird in Grand Prix comps for several weeks and I am pleased with them: both have managed to stay at the top 1000 and 2000. But we can always go better, right? c: So I looked at some of the winners' stats and decided to buy myself a future champion! And I found just the right one from the sales: Fusion, a pretty cherry bay KWPN gelding, 5000+ GP and 400+ stars! He was just 8000 equus(honestly, I expected them to cost more!). This is my first 5000+ GP horse! So I put all my bonus packs, Poseidon's packs and other stuff on him, if you want the best, you have to give him the best! With just half an hour he was fully trained and straight away won his first competition. That's my champ! :D I trained him another few days and today I entered him to the GP! Thumbs up and let's hope he will make it to top 500! That's my first goal! Will keep you updated on Twitter! :)

That's all for today! See you at the pinata party! :)
