Overview

This is a short, one-day event that helps add a bit of fun to training your HARPG lovelies (you don't have to be registered in the official HorseArt-RPG group though). For twenty-four hours, members of the community can come together to doodle their ponies, without the stress of heavy competition or perfect quality. Despite the name of the game, images don't have to be centered around training - horses can be drawn in the pasture, stalls, being groomed, etc. Anything goes, just no show entries! The rapid-fire event is designed to cater to all skill levels and working speeds, as participants can choose many different ways to go about entering. You can enter with one image or twenty, submit sketches or polished images.. everyone is welcome to do as they wish! And at the end of the day, no matter how much you managed to do, you're eligible for the prizes! We've got everything from art to slots, and everything in between.

Rules/Guidelines

1. Be honest! We have no way to regulate cheating, so we have to trust you not to do it! Stay within the time limit, credit your stock, don't work from already-started pieces, etc.
2. Art must be fullbody at minimum, colored inside the lines (with the exception of a few stray pixels), and lined neat enough to be defined as a definite horse. Acceptable examples - fav.me/d7kixm4 // fav.me/d7n402m // fav.me/d7n4tnj, Unacceptable example - fav.me/d6qaxiv
3. Tracing, heavy reffing, etc are completely allowed and won't be counted off! Just remember to credit.
4. All breeds may enter, but the ticket system is based upon Nordanner's kaaring system. Your name will be entered into RNG for prizes based on how much kaaring you racked up within the time limit.
5. Discipline training, grooming/bathing, out at pasture, trail riding - everything is allowed! The only image type we won't accept will be show entries, as it makes it much too easy to earn tickets!
6. One person may draw a variety of horses if they please, there's no limit. If you want to train five horses from your stable in one day, so be it!
7. An individual can win as many prizes as RNG determines. This means one person may win five prizes while another person may win none. This is the most efficient way for us to run the event, so that those who put forth the effort to draw many images can have a bit of an advantage over someone who did the bare minimum. If you end up rolling for own of your own donated prizes, it'll be re-rolled for someone else.
8. All entries must be created just for this event - no double-entries between this and a show, etc. 
9. Horses/riders entered do not have to be from your own stable, leasing is perfectly fine! If you need a horse/horses to use, feel free to use mine, or Nordanner's group horses. You don't have to ask permission! :new: You may also use any of ANIMALGIRL1869's horses!
10. The golden rule is to just have fun with it! Don't worry about winning, just have some fun and draw!

How to Enter

Simply wait for the event to start (countdown here). Once it begins, start drawing! Any time you're free, any time you'd like to, just doodle as you wish. As you finish images, upload and link/thumb them in the comments of this journal in order to be entered. Entries that are not linked/thumbed in the comments by the time the deadline hits will not be counted, even if uploaded to deviantART beforehand! Once you've entered as many images as you'd like to enter, just sit back, relax, and wait for results!


Earning Extra Tickets

If you advertise this event, you will receive one extra ticket for however many people enter with you as a referrer. This means that if I post a poll to advertise, then Sarah and Jacob enter at least once and mention my name in their entry comment, I will earn two extra tickets. No extra tickets will be given if the people you refer do not mention your username when they comment their entries here! Make sure you tell anyone you refer to do this, so you can gain the bonus. Do not use spare accounts to cheat your way into earning more tickets. You must enter at least one image yourself in order to earn extra tickets (you can't just refer people and earn prizes without participating!). You may only earn one ticket per person you refer, even if they post multiple entries. Individuals may only list one referrer, and this must be done in their first entry. Don't tell your friends to mention your name just to gain extra points, especially if they've already finished an entry without you being the one to have shown them the event. Basically, be reasonable, and be honest! You may earn up to five bonus tickets from referring people.
