Christmas Unicorn!!

Post by shadowheart2006 »

Hey y'all! The Christmas Unicorn is back for the third year in a row!! Very exciting times my friends :lol:

The horse, the myth, the legend himself:
.:من الظلال:. Christmas Unicorn!


Now, you may be asking yourself "What is this Unicorn thingy? Why do I care that this person has a greyed out grinder with a unicorn horn??"
Well, you should care, because the Christmas Unicorn is here to hand out gifts!


Gift list! (These are not all of the potential gifts, you can ask for things that aren't on this list, or more specific things like a specific horse breed, an amount of money, etc. These are just suggestions of things that you could ask for :) )
- A free trained horse (from one of my farms, I will choose this horse at random unless you have a specific breed/color request)
- A free training of a horse you own (done by me!)
- A free horse from the market that maybeeee you've had your eye on for a while but don't want to spend the money to buy :lol:
- A free studding to any of my studs (you'll have to find the stud, sorry)
- A free custom foal from any two of my horses or one of my horses with one of your horses (once again, you find the horses)
- Money, can be a specific amount or not
- 600 PT - I cannot guarantee that I will be able to do this; I want to be able to do it for everyone who asks for it in order to keep things fair, but I can't spend the money to buy it for 20 people. You can certainly put this on your list, but it is at my discretion as to if this happens or not.

A few short rules (I know they're no fun but I don't want to have a negative interaction with someone because I didn't list my expectations for communication :roll: ;) )
1. No begging please, I promise I will do my best to make sure everyone is happy, but in the end you get what you get. If you really don't like it, you can always politely pass on receiving it :)
a. Going along with this, I am working very hard to make this fun little giveaway for the community, and if all you do is complain because you didn't get the exact gift you wanted, it will make me very sad. Please don't make me sad. No one wants to see that :lol:

2. Please don't use multiple accounts to get more gifts than everyone else. That's just rude.
3. Please be patient! I will try to get everything handed out or at least set up and ready to be handed out by the set date, but things come up.
4. You will have up to 2 weeks and 2 pings after the date that I hand out gifts to pick them up, if you do not they will be kept by me or disposed of in a manner that I feel appropriate.

That's it! I will do my best to get everyone something from their list that they will enjoy, but I may not be able to get everything on your list or even, unlikely but still possible, I may not find anything on your list. If either of these things happens, please be a good sport and remember that I am human, and I also do have limited time and resources and can't spend hours searching the market for that one specific horse that you have to have :lol: . I will definitely still find something that I think you will enjoy, even if I cannot find anything on your list!

Not really a rule but I think it's worth mentioning: You do not have to celebrate Christmas to receive gifts! The Christmas Unicorn is a horse. He doesn't care if you celebrate Christmas or not, he just likes giving gifts, and so do I :D .

Now for the fun part:

Copy and paste this into a post and fill it out and I'll get to gift getting :D!

Gift list:
1. PT (Reason: I've been really grinding for it lately and my grinders aren't pulling through, so this would be amazing)
2. A free training of a horse I own (Reason: Bro I have wayy too many grinder foals and just don't have the time anymore to train)
3. Anything (Reason: Anything would make me happy this holiday season xD)
What's your favorite thing about the Holiday season?: Hmmm... Probably when I go shopping for presents and such :lol:
Anything else you want me to know? (You could put a Christmas pun here, I love puns): Did you know that the Christmas tree trend started because people thought it would spruce things up a bit? (Get it, spruce? Lol that's one of my faves)

Gift list:
1. Pony Tokens
2. A trained horse
3. Money's always nice; no set amount in mind
What's your favorite thing about the Holiday season?: Snow. Don't get me wrong, the lights are gorgeous and I love peppermint flavored things, but nothing's more peaceful than some big, fluffy snowflakes gently falling down in a not-quite-blizzard.
Anything else you want me to know? (You could put a Christmas pun here, I love puns): If too many people ask for PT then don't worry about me; I don't mind since I've been doing relatively well at grinding for them. Horse-wise I don't have a specific breed or color in mind. Roans are nice? So are Roan Duns? But really anything works. I'd prefer something either High Strung or stuck at Bombproof so that I don't have to worry about temperament changes. I'll probably use any trained horse as a grinder. I think this is brrr-illiant!
