Greetings to you all. We are here tonite to Introduce someone to you. Some of our Wind Runners got loose recently and by the time we found them one of our Prize Mares had bonded with someone and refused to come back with us. Since she is a Wild its kinda hard to force her to and very unusual for her to bond at all. Due to this affinity , we have added her to our team and would like you all to Welcome Spixy!
Spixy will be running some events for us here in this thread as well as helping me with other aspects :) Please make her feel welcome and show her the same accord you would me.
Please allow her to post and reserve the posts she will require.

Hi there. Todays events will be mainly focused upon realistic colored Wind Runners :] I have colored up quite a few adorable mares all looking to find a new home. So come come and play :D
General rules of play:- be nice to each other and the poor hostie :-) she's new, so do expect small errors and wait time.
- please don't beg or whine
- chat all you want
- aand the most important rule - have fun :]
Events planned:
For tonight I've planned to do:
- Pick-a-door
- 'Who am I?'
- Frankens
- Small quick quizzes.
Event 1:
Pick-a-stall
This will be a fast pick-a-door as I'll only be having 8 doors. Hiding behind the doors somewhere is two cheeky little mares and possibly some breeding items ;)
1. Stall one - Blondie_63
2. Stall two - Neocridders.
3. Stall three - Math.
4. Stall four - Echowing.
5. Stall five - jojo080889.
6. Stall six - SeaCrest.
7. Stall seven - Springacres.
8. Stall eight - YourLoveOnly.
Stalls will open when all are picked.
Event 2:
'Who am I?'
This 'Who am I' game will be me posting a small picture or information about a random thing/person/charactor in my head and it'll be your task to guess who or what it is. If it's too hard I'll provide more clues.
First game:
We'll start out nice and easy :D
Clue #1 - I am a male.
Clue #2 - I like red.
Clue #3 - I am not of this time.
Clue #5 - I have a half-brother.
Event 3:
Frankens. The frankens will be happening through the thread and will come at completely random times. You'll only be allowed to answer every 2nd question - unless no one has posted 10 minutes after I post a question.
Small realistic markings such as socks, stockings, faded, blaze, star ect. is allowed :] No unrealistic or crazy markings like zigzag/paint ect yet.
Event 4:
Small quizzes.
Small quizzes will be happning throughout the thread aswell. This will be small quick questions that require a quick - ahm, google search ;D

RANDOM EVENTS
Fake Bribe!(http://i1008.photobucket.com/albums/af201/0WindRunners0/Prize%20Pool/mare4png.png)
This girl is looking for something .. special to coax her home with you. She's quite picky, but has a softer side for very odd things :o She'll probably be the only one with such markings until we get some sgenes templated.
This little event ends tomorrow - I'm sure she'll have picked out her favourite .. stuff by then.
Reverse Auction!(http://i1008.photobucket.com/albums/af201/0WindRunners0/Prize%20Pool/0013.png)
This is one of the very few boys out there at the moment. Males are very limited - so here's your chance to nap up one before the breeding season ;o
This auction is a reverse auction. This means that the bid will start at 100 sg and move downwards. You can only 'decrease' the bid by 1 sg. The bidding will end when someone reaches 0 xD You cannot out.. de?.. bid yourself! xD
YAY more adoptable events XD
=D
I think I'll start out with a small quiz to give out the first lady of the evening (and so that I can try to cert a girlie ;>)
QUIZTIME:
When was the original 'The Black Stallion' movie aired/published (date/year)? Also what was the name of the stallion that mainly played 'The Black Stallion'?
1979, Cass Ole
Stall eight, please.

Congrats guys! :D
When are we gonna get another hint? I've been pondering ideas, and I can't figure it out. :/
I'll set up two games to run overnight ^_^ It's way past midnight here and I'll try to get some rest after I've set up the events and certed the lovely girl. I'll do some more franken tomorrow aaand hopefully someone has snatched the last door by then :D
Another clue coming up Math ^_^
Clue #5 - I have cute puppy ears ;o
Inuyasha? >.< No idea...
Stall One Please!
Yaaay! You can name her Toxic.
Inuyasha!
My laptop had a major lag. :/
Yes :D Inuyasha was the one I was looking for - It's amazing how fast people guess it when the puppy ears are mentioned haha xD
(http://i1008.photobucket.com/albums/af201/0WindRunners0/Prize%20Pool/mare9png.png)
Congratulations Neocridders!
Name and owner please XD
Overnight contests are up =D
Fake Bribe
Well, first off she is such a gorgeous mare, and would make such a lovely first. I can bribe her with some coupons to the store "Everything Odd and Strange", along with an automatic hoof polisher and some... strange tasting skittles. I also can offer a pair of fake fangs, because you never know when you might want some. ;) I will also offer a squishy pillow, and I can offer my services of servantry whenever you may need them. :)
XD I was actually thinking inuyasha when someone mentioned Elmo. I wasn't thinking appearance of red. I was thinking his favorite color was red. And since I'm unable to watch the show because of strict parents, I was unaware that he had a half brother. Hehe. But, that's interesting. ;)
-Squeee- new Wind runner!!
Ehh, I am so at a loss for a name for her! But I looove her so much.
Spixy, incase you missed it, Blondie_63 claimed Stall 1. :)
Oh - I missed that xD
I'll just add her and then reveal the prizes tomorrow <3
*jumps through thread*
I'll give out the prizes in a few minutes. Anyone up for another round of Franken?
Yeees Franken. Although I have dinner in 5 minutes or so XD
Fake bribe: I play some pretty music for the girl, because music is everyone's first love! =3
yeah Franken! Though I have to run off to work in a few minutes as well, haha.
But if there are some rounds later I can probably sneak in a few posts while at work hehe
I have to run right now, but I can play in 30 minutes or so.
I'll wait an hour or two then ^_^
Stalls opening:
Asteria watches with interest as each person picks a door. When all the doors are picked, the signal is given and the curious people can finally open their stall. Some people are greeted with a loud whinny - others a smoking potion or a special bag of oats.
1. Stall one - Blondie_63

Ooooh I absolutely love my girlie! <33
I'll name her Frosch!
*munches on the oats*
Hm. These are probably not for me. Also, I don't know what they do.
*keeps munching*
I'm pretty sure it's a breeding item that gives you a girl and the blue one would give you a boy.
uhoh.
O.o
edit: but seriously, yay breeding item XD I just need to get meself some of these pretty wind runners X3
Haha I'm sorry - let me clarify ^_^
Oat bags:
Normal Bag of oats: Breeding between 1 male and 1 Female; 60% chance Filly, 40% chance Colt
Pink Bag of Oats: Breeding between 1 Male and 1 Female; Guaranteed Filly
Blue Bag of Oats: Breeding Between 1 Male and 1 Female; Guaranteed Colt
Elixirs:
Purple Elixir: Only used on a Colt/Filly, guarantees a forever baby. Please Note; Forever Babies can NOT be used in breeding season.
Red Elixir: Allows Same Sex Breeding, must be used with Oats
I need name and owners for the won Wind Runners =] Gifting is allowed.
Ooh, I love my girl! SUCH a pretty buckskin - I'd like to call her Euterpe please :)
Wow my girl is absolutely stunning! Can I name her Destin please?
Thanks for the elixer! :D
