First mare bred to Atlas by any player is unrestricted.

Any additional mares bred to him must be approved by me. If more than one mare is bred to him, ALL mares must be exceptional, e.g. stakes winners, siblings of stakes winners, dams of stakes winners, or just have an exceptional pedigree cross with him. In other words, if you want to breed one crappy mare to him fine, but you can't breed multiple crappy mares to him.

All of this is an attempt to keep half the foal crop from being sired by Atlas. I'd really prefer it if all players tried to restrict themselves to only one or two Atlas foals each. There are a lot of really good sires out there so try spreading out the bloodlines. Thanks. :)

P.S. If anyone remembers, this is the same deal that was run with his sire, Conduit. How effective was it? Well, Fighting With Wit has only one additional year at stud compared to Conduit, but FWW has 205 foals and Conduit has 118. At least I'm not being Sam Riddle and refusing to let anyone but me breed to him. :)

Sara: consider this approval for Confirma and Storied Tales. I'm hardly going to deny Confirmation and Folklore!

Of course, silly, you haven't bred any mares to him yet. The first mare bred by any player is unrestricted. :)
