All right friends, as a puppet account, I have greatly enjoyed my time as a new player on Forest server, but after this month, I'll be shutting down this account, so I want to host a giveaway!

Starting June 30, my barns will be open to sell everything inside. I'll be selling it all at around market price (maybe a bit discounted), because I want to take all those HBs and GMT one of you a fabulous horse.

So the rules.

This contest will run until game rollover on June 29, I'll pick a winner on the 30th and open my barns up to sell the rest of it all to help fund this.

I want you to look through my Primary barn, pick a horse you want out of it, and tell me what you would do to it to make it perfect for your program. Describe in detail what edits you would want. Change gender or size in any way, whatever genes you would add to make it *perfect*.

I can't make any promises, because this account isn't swimming in cash, but once I pick a winner, with the sale of all the show ponies and other pointed Rank Specials I have, it'll be a tidy sum to get a little bit fancy.

I will be creating the rest of the June Herd Helpers this month, if that inspires you as well.

Once I have all the money from emptying my barns, I'll put the finishing touches on the winner's horse and send it your way.

The deadline gives some freedom with the Gene Mod lab with the fun restricted genes available. I won't spend real money on this, but all the money left in this account will be put into GMTs (or boost tokens) for the winner's horse.

The winner will be picked based solely on who's idea I love the most. Get creative! I want to make a gorgeous horse for you! I want you to love it!

Again, once a winner is picked, that horse is the *only* horse spoken for in my barns, and everything else will be available to buy to help fund this giveaway. Everything is pointed, and most of my show ponies are Exceptionally Perfect or Exceptional Show Horses, or herd helpers of that nature. Feel free to PM me a list of horses you would like to purchase from my show barn.

Cherry Drop 9456157

First off I’d make her a riding pony (that’s all I breed on here and that’s 1gmt), I would also put Appaloosa and possibly depending on how many you’d have mushroom.

HiddenGenetics · Jun 27, 2022 2:28 PM

Clean Slate 9471452

Mare > Stallion
Hom DP on both strands
Hom sty on both strands
And Kit M
depending what I have left over I might make him onyx

I love my grullos and they are washed through out my barn having a new stallion to use would definitely be able to make this easier on me. I have a lot of strong mares with onyx and kit m and I’m slowly working on taking out any A’s in my barn.

StormwoodFarm · Jun 27, 2022 2:56 PM

Pieces of Eight 9475661

I would make her a riding pony (13.2 hands) and add another copy of DP to each strand.

Depending on just how fancy we're talking, I'd love to add two copies of mushroom to the primary strand and either pangere plus or satin!

I've been very into the golden shiny ponies, especially the gray champagne, lately!

TripleGRanch · Jun 27, 2022 3:02 PM

Ever since the new update of gray with hyperpigmentation, I've become obsessed
over the cream champagnes. I've even started to slowly move towards moving in a new herd to
play with them. So I picked this little lady.

Pieces of Eight 9475661

Firstly, I have an unhealthy addiction to the HH itself. (hides barn full) But anyways.. Haha

- I would start off by changing her bone to medium (1.75ish).

Primary strand
- Add Cream
-Add Dun
- Remove the LP
- Add Either W8/W10/M
(If we could go super fancy, adding Dpf1/dpf2)

Secondary Set
- Add Cream
- Add Dun
- Add Roan
- ASR1 for those spots

MiaMooForest · Jun 27, 2022 3:53 PM

I love cupcakes. And I love chocolate. So isn't it only natural that my new favorite RS is the Chocolate Cupcake?

Chocolate Cupcake 9510599

Changes:

1. I'm not the best cook... so of course, the cupcakes I was making came out burnt. (Lower case e-E on the second set)
2. I forgot to mix the batter well, so it came out quite lumpy and dappled. (+1 copy of S+ second set)
3. But boy, that wasn't even the worst. Clumsy me dropped a bunch of the frosting in as I was making it, and when I baked it, in my hurry, I forgot to mix it in well, and I put in the wrong time in the timer, so it came out undercooked and with an awkward swirl of white frosting! (Primary set +1 ONX, and +1 Pearl) After that, I was too discouraged and tired out to try to fix it. Absent-mindedly, I took a bite of one of the cupcakes- and to my surprise it was delicious! I guess all is well that ends well.
(None of this actually happened, except for the fact that I really am a bad cook =)) )

This is an amazing contest, and I had fun thinking about the most cupcake-ish changes I would want to make that would actually sound like the kind of baking mistakes I would make :-))

Dugout · Jun 27, 2022 4:53 PM

Starry Eyed 9530203

I would make her EE and add kit M. Love those black and white spotted horses!

ClicknikStables · Jun 27, 2022 6:25 PM

Let’s bring some confetti to this party! (sorry, couldn’t help myself). This lady has a couple studs hoping for dates with her.

Satin Party Dress 9508470

Add hom snow (looks like confetti!)
Remove gray
Add satin (to make hom satin)
Add hom DP
Bone weight 2.5
Make her taller! 17hh

Love this idea. That was fun to think of!

WolfgangPride · Jun 27, 2022 7:28 PM

Pretzel Twist 9491019

She'd help out my Liver line which is ever growing thankfully
Add 2nd copy of DP to both strands
Remove LP from both strands
Change bone weight to 1.8 or something close to that just WB density not specific to which
GMT to max-height
Make perfectly consistent
Change W20 on strand 1 to SB2
Change W20 on strand 2 to be Kit M
Change the white factor on strand 1 from minimal to large

That about does it she has the perfect base colors already

AshaWindsong · Jun 27, 2022 9:44 PM

So I would love to add this girl o my brindle herd.

Pretzel Twist 9491019

I would switch her to a stud and bring up to draft in size and weight. If mushroom is an option I would add HOM mushroom another copy of DP and drop LP from the palomino side add also set palomino to 100 for breeding.

Thank you for offering the giveaway.

WolfCreekRanch · Jun 27, 2022 10:24 PM

What a great contest!

Made in the Shade 9522505

I would make a stallion and make him a heavy warmblood if not possible to make him a draft. If possible make over 16h the taller the better.

First strand
Make EE
Add dun
Add Onyx (if possible)
Add Overo
Add SW1
Add Pearl

Second strand
Make EE
Add LP
Add PATN1

Things listed as if possible would be nice but aren't needed to fit in my herd. As well as all white markings are not needed just if I was dreaming up a horse haha.
Super fun to think about but I could probably change (add/subtract) a lot on any horse lol. There is just so much you can do in this game :)

whywishesarehorses · Jun 28, 2022 6:45 AM

This is a lovely giveaway!
If I were to win, I would take either this filly or the Pomegranite:

ExPer 9471663

To be a perfect lead broodmare, she would need to beef up overnight into a warmblood. She would then blossom into a deeper shade of lovely bay with a second helping of DP. Although it would not be obvious, she would sprout a spore or two with a homozygous helping of mushroom, which might slowly infiltrate my even bred herd. Finally, she would prematurely lighten in color, with a double serving of whitened mane through ZZ, and a splash of tobiano paint across her flank.
(a pomegranite would go through very similar changes on at least one strand)

ImagineThat1 · Jun 28, 2022 12:04 PM

Chocolate Cupcake 9510599 I do love cupcakes.. but prefer vanilla so I would add sun and Pearl to both primary and secondary strands
Add a champagne to one either top or bottom

Add some additional shimmer with some satin all around
And a little frosting with M and KIT .. perfect vanilla cupcakes with shimmer frosting

silverborn · Jun 28, 2022 3:38 PM

ExPro 9471675

This little dear is close to what i breed my light line for already. I would add another DP to make her black liver, then add sabino-2 and tobiano. Depending what's left, changing one pangare to plus would round her off nicely. If that's not an option, hom for TE1 or het TE1/TE2 would be neat. I love dark horses with bright eyes!

TransylvaniaStables · Jun 29, 2022 5:34 AM

Last day to enter! I'm loving everyone's submissions!

GreenAcres873 · Jun 29, 2022 10:56 AM

I would choose Mountain Mist.

Mountain Mist 9513694

I would beef her up to a draft type, add a Sty, add hom mushroom and if we're getting extra fancy I would add chocolate!

What a cool and fun giveaway!

BossScorpio · Jun 29, 2022 11:42 AM

Pint of Guinness 9542971
Imagine being in Irland visiting the best pub in Dublin, Mulligan’s you sit down to have a stout (wb/dr) Glass of Guinness, with its Dark (t>>a, add DP/DP, sty>>s+, *chocolate if we can also) and rich flavor. As you ask/watch the Bartender pour you notice they filled it from the tap two-thirds of the way full. They then placed it on the bar and walked away. You freaked out a bit but, "it's okay that how its best prepared" says a local. After a few minutes, the bartender returns and fills the pint the rest of the way. When the glass is perfectly filled, it is brought over to you. You let it settle like is recommended. Making a clear division between the white foamy head (kit sb2/M), and the dark beer. Finally, you’re ready to drink your beer. The local did mention this is not a beer you daintily sip, or one for which you slurp the head off before drinking the rest. Instead, you grab the pint and gulp down at least a quarter of the beer, as if it’s the first drink you’ve had in years. Three more gulps down. There should be only four foam lines in the glass when you’re done with it. After that you know why this is the "Guinness of Dublin" and the best place to have come for the unforgettable experience.
PS that was a blast and I learned alot looking up this information. :-)

TransylvaniaStables · Jun 29, 2022 8:52 PM

All right, friends, I'm going to deliberate tonight and come back with a winner in the morning! Thanks so much for playing, it's been fun seeing what everyone breeds for and prioritizes in their lines!

TransylvaniaStables · Jun 30, 2022 5:23 AM

Okay, this was a super hard call because you all had such great entries, but I've come to a decision!

The winner is @whywishesarehorses! I'll send you a PM and get you your horse as soon as she's done!

As for the rest of you, I'd like to offer you the horse you selected! This will be a "pay what you can afford," honor-system based sale, so everyone should be able to take home their base horse if they want them! (If your daily payout is 700hbs, I am definitely not expecting you to offer 500k for something)

Thank you all for participating, this was so much fun and I'm glad I got to play here for a month!

AshaWindsong · Jun 30, 2022 6:37 AM

Congrats to whywishesarehorses.

I would love to grab this horse

MiaMooForest · Jun 30, 2022 6:45 AM

Congrats to whywishesarehorses! This was such a fun contest!

StormwoodFarm · Jun 30, 2022 8:31 AM

Thanks for running this, @TransylvaniaStables it was fun! Maybe I'll do something similar for my puppet account, I haven't done a good job playing on it.
Congratulations to @whywishesarehorses!

I know that @TripleGRanch also picked this filly as the horse of choice, but if they don't want her, I'd love to add her to my herd- a quick change in height and she'll be a perfect fit for my herd!
https://hj2.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=9475661
Would 25k be okay?

whywishesarehorses · Jun 30, 2022 8:37 AM

Thank you so much, @Transylvaniastables!

BossScorpio · Jun 30, 2022 8:43 AM

TransylvaniaStables · Jun 30, 2022 9:32 AM

All those prices sound perfect, do you all have chats I can drop them in?

BossScorpio · Jun 30, 2022 9:39 AM

My chat is BS hour and thank you

TripleGRanch · Jun 30, 2022 10:07 AM

You had sights first. All yours. I'd be more than happy to pick up

Congrats @whywishesarehorses

StormwoodFarm · Jun 30, 2022 10:18 AM

I don't have a chat- perhaps someone would let us use theirs?

silverborn · Jun 30, 2022 10:55 AM

I can do 20k for the little liver frame filly, if that's okay. I don't have a chat to put her in.

TripleGRanch · Jun 30, 2022 1:02 PM

I have a chat if anyone needs one.
https://hj2.huntandjump.com/buddy_chat.php?chatid=1388

HiddenGenetics · Jun 30, 2022 2:37 PM

I’ll happily buy my little clean slate for 200k to help fund this if you need some more funds :)

TransylvaniaStables · Jun 30, 2022 3:15 PM

@TripleGRanch you are more than welcome to any horse in my barns not spoken for! Everything is up for sale now!

@silverborn that sounds perfect! I'll put your name on her and put her in TripleGRanch's chat!

@HiddenGenetics that would be fabulous, I'm very close to making the winner's horse perfect!

TransylvaniaStables · Jun 30, 2022 3:22 PM

AshaWindsong · Jun 30, 2022 5:02 PM
