This next giveaway is inspired by @Herzeloyde 's giveaway on Bluegrass and after getting permission, I am super excited to implement it here! This giveaway was a huge help to starting my herd on Bluegrass and although I had to make a few tweaks to make it more feasible on this server, but I hope it is just as impactful here! This giveaway will run indefinitely for all new players.

*If you are new to this server and your daily payout is less than 10,000 hbs, put a horse up for sale for 50,000 hbs. Post the link to the horse here, and I, or another established player will buy them from you, so that you have some extra fundings to begin your HaJ addiction.
*This offer is intended for newer members. If you are a long time established player, this offer is not intended for you.
*One horse per player, and if you have multiple accounts, you can only enter this with one of them.
If anyone else buys the horse before I do - no problem! The most important is that you get some money to start your game

***

Below is some advice for new players also written by @herzeloyde with a few minor bonus modifications from myself

If you need to build your economy, and can still create foundations with points, here is what I would do:

1)
First, try to get hold of all the following Herd helpers you can get:
- Exceptionally Perfect
- - Exceptionally Producing (of all kinds)
- Exceptional Show Horse
- - Perfect Foundations
- Great Show Horse
- - Rank Specials

Because they will be more attractive to buyers. Then, when you have created as many as you can with these HHs every day, you can start creating from regular Herd Helpers.

2)
If you get a rare 600+pointed horse, keep them if you want, but sell everything else, unless it is a rare Herd Helper that you just can't part with.

Put the horses up for sale for 50-60% of their lifetime value, announce it on the forum, and they will sell quick. If you name them according to their HH, it is more easy for buyers to see which ones they want to buy. i.e. I would call a horse created from the Exceptionally Perfect HH something like "9890973 Ex Perfect" or "9890973 Great ShowH" if it is the "Great Show Horse" HH you used etc.

***2a bonus from Ladyhawke. Do not make seperate posts for each sale horse. If you go an a large create spree, put all of those horses up together in one forum post***

You do NOT need to waste money on testing them, other than the free breeding test, because experienced players will already know about how good they are, if they are created from one of the above Herd Helpers.

3)
Enter any horse that did not sell after a couple of days into the auction, and use the money you earn to create new horses, and repeat step 1-3.

**3a bonus by Ladyhawke: If you create all of your horses as 4 y/o mares, you can pasture breed them for only 500 hbs each. You can then auction off both the mare and foal for an extra 2,000 hbs profit.***

Keep only the few that you do not want to part with, or that will be crucial to your breeding program, and the ones with the highest points. (more than 500+ at least), because as a new member, you want to keep the horses that earn you the most per stall

Once you have reached your limit of 20,000 points held, and all the horses in your stable are horses you want to keep, it is time to use the money you have saved in your bank account and buy the biggest barn you can afford.

4)
Now it is time to buy other player's pointed foundations, and fill the new barn with pointed foundation show horses only. When you have done this, you will have a nice, steady income to support your pixel pony addiction

5)
You can also get a nice income by selling off Rank Specials, if you are lucky enough to get one, for their real market value. Forum auction is probably the best way to make sure that you get payed what they are worth, or just put them straight up for sale for the prices you see they sell for on the forum. Do some research, and see what they usually sell for

The money you earn from this should be used to buy a Basic upgrade, or for saving for the special show barn.

- If you reach the 20,000 points held-limit, and can no longer create foundations with points, just sell the horses, and you can start creating horses with points again, until all the horses you have in your barn are super high 5-600+ pointed horses, and their total amount of points exceeds 20,000.
Good luck, and have fun!

EvieC · Jan 19, 2021 9:44 PM

What if I’m new to this Server but not new to the game? Can I still put a horse up for sale for you to buy?

LadyhawkeStables · Jan 20, 2021 4:10 AM

@EvieC absolutely! I updated the verbiage to be more clear that it is open to all players new to this server and with a daily payout of less than 10,000 hbs!

This is a great idea, @ladyhawke! Unfortunately I'm not on bluegrass so I can't ask @Hrzeloyde, but can I copy this giveaway on the forest server with credit to both you and Hrzeloyde? Thanks!

LadyhawkeStables · Jan 22, 2021 9:30 AM

@egret absolutely! I'll shoot them a message on Bluegrass and let them know! It's always fun to see your ideas being shared! :D

Egret · Jan 22, 2021 10:00 AM

Thanks @LadyhawkeStables for pointing this thread out to me!

You're welcome @velvetlava! Hopefully the extra cash and advice helps you get started! :)

ChkChkChkBoom · Apr 25, 2021 1:37 PM

I'm learning Hunt and Jump from my mom (@velvetlava) and she mentioned this thread.
Here's my horse:

499602

LadyhawkeStables · Apr 25, 2021 2:24 PM

Sorry @chkchkchkboom but I am only going to do one per household. There isn't really a good way to prove it isn't the same person one both accounts - I've seen it happen many times before. There might be another player willing to pick him up though!

ChkChkChkBoom · Apr 25, 2021 2:43 PM

:(

VelvetLava · Apr 25, 2021 4:36 PM

No sweat, @chkchkchkboom, I'll split it with you.
[Edit: looks like I can't due to account-sharing rules. Sorry.]

Evolution · Apr 27, 2021 12:39 PM

Any chance this offer is still good? I made some noob errors and am having trouble keeping money in my account!
https://mesa.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=505020
Thanks!

LadyhawkeStables · Apr 27, 2021 3:33 PM

Absolutely! Do you want the money in your Evolution or Phylo account? Your post was from Evolution but the horse is owned by Phylo

Evolution · Apr 28, 2021 10:06 AM

Sorry, the Phylo account. I'm not sure why it posted that way. I'm logged into Phylo, but it still says Evolution at the top. I'm in a mobile browser and the accounts use the same email address (Phylo is my "second attempt" account after I blew my cash on rank 1 creates).

LadyhawkeStables · Apr 28, 2021 10:51 AM

All set! I know the forum logins can get wonky with two accounts. I think if you just close completely out of the browser to log out of both accounts and maybe clear cache that should do it?

Acorn · Apr 28, 2021 5:19 PM

Thank you so much! I shant squander it!

DejaRea · Apr 29, 2021 12:28 AM

I grabbed that spare pony, as I'm not hosting.
