When Will I Get A Deli Foal? (Born! Winner Announed.)

Post by EclipticEnd »

Don't quote this, please.

Some of you may be aware that I'm attempting to finish all of the Breeds Quests, of which there are 328. I'm currently working on Marwaris, but I'll be doing Delis right after. I thought this would be a good opportunity for another contest.

Each person will get one guess as to how many foals it will take for me to finally get a Deli. The person who guesses the closest number will win. On the off chance that two people choose the same number, a tie breaker will be done based on whether you guess it to be a colt or a filly, and what color you think it might be.

For clarification, if you guess the number 3, then you're guessing that my third foal will be a Deli, not that there will be three failed foals and then a Deli on the fourth try.

Note that I do not currently have the exact horses that I'll be using for Delis. I will, however, be using my group of four West African Barbs. Delis are made by breeding West African Barb X Arabian crosses with Caspians. My WABs are the following colors: 2x Red Dun Tobiano, 1x Silver Bay, 1x Silver Bay Dun Tobiano. I will be using public studs for the Caspians, which tend to be Black, Bay, or Bay Dun, and Arabians also tend to be Dun. I will also be using my own Arabians, which are Black, Dunskins, or Grulla Duns. Use this information to form your guess.

On the slim chance that there's still a tie, both winners will receive their chosen prize.

Entries will be closed once I have my Caspians and Arabian X West African Barbs mature and begin breeding. I'll post an update here when I'm done with my Marwaris and begin that process. The Winner(s) will be announced once the first Deli foal is born.

Prizes:
Your choice of one of the following: (Fill this in within your entry form please.)
-The Deli Foal
-A Non-Trained Rare Horse (check here for possible breeds)
-$1,000,000
-A Fully Trained Horse of random breed, gender, and statistics
-1x Breeding Pass for any of my private studs

You'll also get a bonus $250,000 if you guess the correct gender.

Anyone who guesses the correct color will also receive $250,000, regardless if they guess the number of foals and gender correctly.

So Far:
-5 Fail Foals
-Success! Deli Foal.

Added as I realized my wording is a bit vague:

[quote="The edit that I"]For clarification, if you guess the number 3, then you're guessing that my third foal will be a Deli, not that there will be three failed foals and then a Deli on the fourth try.[/quote]

Also, I just got a Marwari. I'm working to get a second so that I can have both genders. After that I'll start creating my recipe horses for Deli.

UPDATE:

I've finished with Marwaris and am now beginning Delis. Entries are open until I make my first Deli attempt; I'll alert everyone at that point so that you have a chance to change or make your color guesses based on who I pair together.
