Entertaining Glitch
I have a mare on lease. For the sake of privacy for the owner, I won't name the mare. Said mare has a ton of Hypo grades on her page, most of which are B+. Except, I noticed that she does have two A- nicks, which would be great if they weren't from studs sired by her sire...

I actually have a letter from Nick Gilmore asking me to fix this issue from... like... a year ago.... still in my inbox.

It will make a 6 legged baby which means the baby will be faster. More legs, more speed right?

Re: Entertaining Glitch
You can also hypo horses to themselves, as well as to horses from another breed. Can't breed them though, just drool over the A+ hypos in the lands of what could have been.Lily Wilkins wrote: β2 years ago I have a mare on lease.

Re: Entertaining Glitch
Things I learned over the past year from this exploitable glitch.
Mares hypo better than studs.
Pedigree-less horses ie the 45k gp mixer studs hypo terribly to themselves.
The entertainment value and wasted GP was priceless.
It doesn't work with dead or non-retired horses. It doesnt allow breeding, only hypomates.
When I couldn't find a tester stud for my mixer mares, just do a little link movement and switching for those studs not cross-breedable. Done. Works the same.
