| Horse Guidelines |
• No famous horses can exist in E.E.
• Horses must be kept realistic. All breeds are welcome in E.E, but
their stats must be kept realistic. Example an arabian isn't going to
be 17.hh. If your unsure about a horses standards to some research or
ask another member.
• All horses diciplines must be kept realistic. A clydesdale isn't
going to do barrel racing. Horses may only compete in a limit of three
strenuous disciplines, not including halter. Example Dressage,
Showjumping and Hunters.
• Created horses can have either real life bloodlines, or created
bloodlines. If you would like your horses to have real life bloodlines,
but don't know how to find them. Ask me (Kelly) and I'll help you.
• Inorder for horses to exist in Elite Equines they must be
registered in the horse registry. If they aren't than they don't exist and
can't do anything.
• All horses need to see the vet once a year, and the farrier
every two months. Members who don't take their horses to the vet/farrier
will have their horses taken off them.
• All horses age 1 year on January 1st.
| Breeding |
• In E.E mares a pregnant for 3 weeks. I've shortened the period
for sim purposes. 11 months is a long time to wait for a mare to have her
foal.
• Mares in there first week of pregnancy can compete in their usual
disciplines. In their second week of pregnany they can only show in
halter. In their third week of pregnancy they can't show at all.
• Mares can have one foal per breeding year. If your mare was born
in 2000, she can have foals in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007.
• Stallions must be atleast 3 years old before breeding. Mares must
be atleast 4 years old before breeding. Cross breeding is allowed.
• Foals stats must be realistic. Two black horses will not produce
a palomino. If your unsure on what colour the foal could be, ask
another member.
| Importing/Exporting |
• Importing of horses is ok in E.E. Past show records can be
converted into E.E points.
• All horses need to exist in another sim game. This is not just
a way to create horses. You must show proof of the horse existing.
• Once a horse is imported into E.E, it can no longer exist in any
other game.
• There is a $8,000 importing fee, that you must pay before
importing the horse.
• If you decide to leave E.E you are welcome to export all horses
you created or imported in.
| Showing Guidelines |
• All disciplines are welcome in E.E. And we encorouge members to
bring new ones in.
• When choosing a discipline and level for your horse be
realistic. A draft horse isn't going to be doing barrel racing, and
a 5 year old isn't going to be competing at grand prix level.
• Horses can begin showing undersaddle at 2yrs old. But nothing
to strenuous. Horses can show over fences at 4yrs old.
• Race horses can begin their careers at age 2. Racers
can only show in racing, untill they retire. Then they can be retrained
for another discipline.
• E.E works on a point system. When you show your horse, it earns
points. These points earn show titles. Show titles are a sign of a
quality show horse.
• When entering shows, don't over show your horses. Members who
over show their horses, will have them taken away.
• When hosting a show, keep classlist realistic.
• Results must be out within 1 week of the shows running
date. If you can't the results out in time, get another member to do
results.
• Show results must be randomized.
