All those fancy pictures!

Good afternoon!

I don't have any ideas for a good intro so let's just begin :D

I changed my avatar! Just added BigHorseFreak in a fancy font onto a palomino horse picture and there it is c: Cute, isn't it? ;D I won't change my blogger profile pic tho, you can still look at Michael Jackson's Dirty Diana cover here :P

I am holding a Grand Giveaway in my equestrian center's forum! In the past I've had small prizes usually, but this time I took a deep breath and agreed with myself to make a few sacrifices...tho I have more of these items in store lol, trying to be generous here or what :P Entrances are open for everyone, so be sure to enter and have a go! And if you can, please spread the word with this banner, I haven't got any participators(nor visits) so far, largely due to Howrse's new rule, that advertising trough messages to boarders is prohibited. Thank you!

More fancyness...

Lottery, my favorite event, has begun again! I have been lucky to have gathered tons of tickets and the biggest price so far has been a Golden Apple c: Narcissa got that one, she has a super cute palomino uni coat now! Also, I got another Golden Apple when I finished the Great Challenge, but as I went to use it, I accidentally forgot to tick the box that I use a GA from my inventory and I lost a precious pass x.x But I think it was not so bad at all, cause the coat I got went retired today and it has less than 200 copies, woop! So I got altogether 3 new coats in one day, not bad at all! Here, have pics of them :3 I am really sorry, I couldn't find better pics, so avoid enlarging them if you don't want to get your eyes burned by all those pixels...

I love Narcissa's pwetty palomino ass *w*

I just counted them up...I have exactly 30 GA horses, 4 of them are RCs and a handful of others are soon-to-be-RC. Quite a lot already, eh?

This time I got a lot of pictures here, woops...Anyways, thank you for stopping by and see you in the next post!

Sincerely,

SH confessions

Hello!

It's been a while! I've had the thoughest cycle in school and very demanding finals, but I have always found spare minutes(and hours, woops) for Howrsing around, so here is a little summary.

Last week I entered both Tanya and Fusion in GP every day. To summarize it up, Fusion is doing better than Tanya, the latter only gets better placings in cross country. This week I have only entered Fusion for GP, will tell you about the results next time :) Last week I managed to hop to 264th place in the general GP ranking. I hope Fusion takes me higher!

I am the kind of breeder who very rarely uses Safe Haven. I try to sell any unwanted horses and when they won't go with even the lowest price, then the very last option is SH. But today I had to make an ugly exception to pass a guest in the Great Challenge, where I had to put a horse into SH. I didn't have any I could send there, so I bought a cheap crossbred foal from the market and put it into SH. Of course I feel guilty, but this is just game, BHF...just a game...

I noticed that I haven't talked about any tips or had discussions lately, I promise I will try to do them more often from now on! I tried to do one today, but I ended up deleting it, because it didn't come up so good. When I happen to get great ideas, I will come and make a new post!

Sorry for yet another short post! I always have great ideas, but once I get here, they are all gone...I should try writing them down...

See you!

Breeding farm updates

Good morning! Or good evening!

You are probably wondering how are my Haflingers, Shires and others. No? Well, I'll still inform you about it.

BLUPping is a slow thing. I am just basically training, training, training my Shires and Haflingers, checking the BLUP-o-meter or whatever it is and it goes. So. Slow. I think I just need patience :P I entered Sunshine in several comps but she came back with 2 bronze throphies and a bunch of 5th placings. So, not yet.

About Arabians: Seems like Blackbird's line is dying out. I have already begun selling mares whose at least 3 last offsprings I have been forced to sell because they are not good enough for me. These all happen to be from Balckbird's line. I haven't bred Blackbird herself anymore. Yes, her offsprings have very good inborn skills, but that is not enough for me. I need them also to have a high GP. But if you would like an Arabian foal from her, feel free to mail me. You may choose the stallion ;) Rest assured, I am not gonna sell her, cause she still brings home golden throphies from the competition tracks. Amarita's line, in the other hand, is doing really well. All her offsprings are mine and so are her offsprings' offsprings.

My Trakehners have suddeny soared to the 2000+ GP skies. Best ones have about 2200 GP right now. And that means I will be selling foals with a GP below it, which means get ready to buy these lovely folks c:

In today's Yay or Nay...

The Great Challenge: Legendary horses.

Cons:

• Bonuses for the next festivities!
• If you feel bored, you can read a story about a Legendary horse.
• Missions are moderately easy. While doing your everyday stuff, you may automatically have completed them.
• If you are stuck with a mission, you may ask help from the community.
• You can help the community with missions and in turn you receive lottery tickets.

Pros:

• Getting the Divine means spending passes(real money).
•  You have to pay a fair amount of equus if you want somebody to help you complete a mission.
• Only several missions have the help option.
• In order to get all the bonuses, you have to be online everyday and complete all the missions.

The verdict:

This event is quite easy and a great way to spend time. Though you may not get the Divine(unless you are a pass millionaire), you have a big chance to get other great items. This is a Win.


That's it for this time! See you!
