2016 Foaling Contest
Posted: Tue Feb 02, 2016 7:36 pm
Hello lovelies!
We’ve done this twice before, but is everyone ready to do The Foaling Contest for a FOURTH time?
-----
So here is the gist of what you have to do:
Review the information provided for you, and make your best guess as to the date that the mare will deliver, the time she will deliver, the color of the foal, and the gender of the foal. I reserve the right that you only guess ONCE per mare (to make things easier on me). In return, I will write down all the contestants’ guesses and I will provide updates and more information on how the pregnancy goes as she gets closer to her due date. Those who are the closest to the actual foal born will win prizes. And, of course, there will be first and second-place prizes, as well!
-----
Prizes are to be determined as follows:
Please note that this may change or more may be added! *
1st Place - 10,000 Game Points and a Paint yearling from my barn
2nd Place - 5,000 Game Points
((Exact yearling to be determined, and I promise it will be a good one!))
