My favorite boy:

SHS Holding Trial BS
The only things I'd change would be making him hom S+, hom kitM, hom prl, hom flaxen, and another KP, 1 or 2
I'd like an Expro Draft Mare please!

If I win, an ExPerf Warmblood stallion would be great!

The 14th is a Monday.....When does this close?

Ah! I just realized I got my dates and days mixed up. Thank you for noticing, Wolfgang! I did mean to end it tomorrow (Saturday, the 12th), and I'll announce winners on Sunday the 13th. Sorry about that! Since there's a full 24 hours before it closes people should have the opportunity to enter still if they did want to.

Happy birthday, and thanks this is a really cool idea, loved the scavenger hunt!

Okay, I'm going to close down entries and I should be able to get the last few quizzes graded figure out winners this afternoon.

Here are the winners!

Third place was a tie between @CoppiLane and @Danaerys with 38 points each, so I sent you both a 250k prize!

Second place goes to @Windigo with 40 points.

First place goes to @ChrystalBlues with 42 points!

I will be messaging the first and second place winners regarding their GMT ponies. The 20k entry prizes will be sent out tonight. Thanks for playing, everyone!

Thank you! This contest was just great all around, and the prizes are awesome! Thanks again.

Congrats to the winners, and thanks again for the fun!

Thanks for the hbs!

I'm posting the quiz and the answers here, for those who want to know how to find the correct answers! The intention of this contest was to help people learn how to use the different resources we have around HaJ (the searches, the forum, the FAQ, the Rules, the Genetics guide, etc) so hopefully posting the answers will also be helpful!


1. What is the longest color name you can find in your herd? (One point per word in the name)
The longest color name in your herd: use the search! A handy tip would be to select "must not have" under the dominant Gray allele (G) as a gray horse will not show any base color words in the color name.

2. What is the rarest (fewest living examples) Rank Special herd helper in the game?
Rarest rank special: You can find a list of all the rank specials in the game including the number of living horses and how many you own for each rank special and herd helper by clicking "My Stable>>Member Home" on the menu (your stable overview page). From that page choose "Account and Stable Management". Under "Account Management" click "My Herd Helper Collection."

3. How many living foals does a stallion have to produce to qualify for the Top Producer breeders' club awards?
A stallion must produce 10 living foals to qualify for the breeder's club boards. This answer can be found in the FAQ - click "Resources>>FAQ User Guide on the menu. You can also find this information in the forum in the "Basic Information for New Players" thread bookmarked at the top of the Announcements section.

4. Is the pangare gene (denoted by "p") documented, well-supported, or moderately-supported?
The pangere gene is "well supported" according to the Genetics Guide (Also located in the resources tab of the menu). The Genetics Guide will give you a more detailed and scientific overview of most of the genes in-game.

5. How old is the nd1 mutation?
The nd1 mutation is over 43,000 years old! This answer can also be found in the genetics guide.

6. It's time to tack up! Post a link below to one of your horses wearing a "plain stable halter," "tidy hunter braids," and a "pinwheel braided tail. (one point per correct tack item)
To put tack on a horse, go to the page of a horse you own and click the "Tack" tab all the way to the right above your horse's picture. From there, you will see drop-down menus for each tack pack you own or have access to. The boxes marked HEX to the right of each drop down menu allow you to change the colors of your tack by entering a 6-digit color code. Select a tack item for your horse and then make sure to click "Add tack item" below the menu to actually add the tack to your horse. You have to click "Add tack item" for every individual piece of tack you put on - otherwise it won't show. When you are done, refresh your horse's image using the prompted button or by clicking the little circle arrow below your horse's picture to see your new tack!

7. Time for a scavenger hunt! The horse in question is owned by breeder ID 43830. They carry 3 closed fantasy genes, are homozygous dominant for the gene that controls black/red pigment, and heterozygous for a gene that causes death in foals when homozygous. What is this horse's sex? (You will know you've found the right horse when the owner notes say "Congratulations! You have found the scavenger hunt horse!")
In order to find the first scavenger horse, we have to use the horse search, which is located under the Community tab in the menu. We can infer a few things about the horse from the clues: The horse carries closed fantasy genes, so will most likely be entered in the "fantasy" breeder's club, so we can type "fantasy" into the breeders club tab in the search. The "E" (black) gene controls black and red pigment, and the capital letter "E" is the dominant form of this gene, so we can select "must not have" for "e" on the base color search tab. Frame (Olw) is the only gene in game that is always lethal when homozygous, so we can select "must have" for both "Olw" and "-" on the "white markings" search tab. We are also given the owner ID for this horse, so we can type that into the "Owner ID" slot. That will narrow our search down to 3 pages of horses, and we can just scan for those that have 3 closed fantasy genes. This is the correct horse:


HT2 4B Ny B5 6390764


8. The second horse is also owned by HTRanch. They are old enough that they could age out at rollover at the end of September. They are sired by a horse named "Syzygy" and carry two different KIT genes.
In the owner's notes of the first scavenger hunt horse, you will find a second scavenger hunt! What is this horse's bone weight (in numbers)? (You will know you have found the right horse when the owner notes say "Congratulations! You have found the second scavenger hunt horse!"
Scavenger hunt number 2! If this horse is also owned by the same person (me), then they will have the same owner ID. Otherwise, you can find user's ID numbers by search for their username in the "Search Users" tab under "Community" in the menu. Since we know the name of the horse's sire, we can search for "Syzygy" using the horse name slot in the search. Simply doing that won't work though because the original Syzygy is deceased, so we also have to check the "deceased" tab in the search in order to find him. Once we find Syzygy, we can copy and paste his ID number into the "Sire ID" slot on the search page. (Don't forget to also input the owner ID we already had!) If the horse is old enough to age out at rollover, they must be at least 17 years old, so we can input the age as "greater than" 16. If the horse carries two different KIT genes, we can go to the "White Markings" tab of the search and select "must not have" for "-" under KIT Genes. This will narrow our search down to only one page of horses, and we can sort through until we find the scavenger hunt horse. This is the correct horse. Her bone weight can be found in the left-hand column of information under her picture.
