I understand why there's no donkey teams (as their GP is different) but Draft horse's should be able to have teams, it would make it more challenging and fun.

Howrse hasn't ruled out the possibility of draft teams. They might come later.

Doesn't look like there will be a promo today then.

I never said that donkey teams would be functional

Also sorry if this stuff should be in spoilers. Drafts are known now so I am not sure.

Shouldn't we already have begun with the Flower Fight now? or will it first come tomorrow?

Maybe it will open later in the day.

Juicy bit! There's a topic in game play and Dr. Zig said they might come later today (and threw in a ) so we still have a bit of hope!

But then she said it may come tomorrow. By the looks of it, it will come tomorrow.

I think it will be tomorrow as it is passed The time they are usually introduced and the Howrse team will want to double check the update and make sure everything is right and working for before they come

Especially as there's been a couple of glitches today already.. They will want to sort them out first

So is it to say that the Maze and Flower Fight will be out tomorrow??

Well they will be released at the same time as the draft i presume..some people think it will be later today.. Because of comments from a mod.. Personally i think tomorrow for the reasons above... Or it could be neither

I hope it comes today because I can't be on as much tomorrow.

I actually don't really think it will come today but who knows it might so please stop pointing directly at me. If a mods says so it might.

What do you mean.by " pointing directly at" ?

wow I'm suprised we didn't go straight into the promo, I see they set up riding horses/ drafts now, cool, but howrse going 24 hours without some kind of promo.. is the world ok..LOL

It could be today, it could be tomorrow. A certain little played a few pranks during the mini-update today, which was to make things ready for the arrival of the draft horses.

you guys need to stop giving that monkey sugar.. he goes crazy when you all do..LOL

Anyone know what the "mini updates" were?

Mini updates=we are getting Miniature horses? Just kidding. Sorry.

Haha, I don't think so....

The Main Reason to use the banner is to help keep things a surprise. Yes, this is the Spoiler Zone - and Yes, the majority of Players come here for information and do not seem to mind if there's the occasional 'open' spoiler and don't come looking for anything particular.

But there are those players who do come in here looking for just specific pieces of information (ex. What Breed(s) of Draft horses are being added) and they don't care about anything else. While they do need to tread lightly - it's not exactly fair if a player comes here looking for info on Draft horses and ends up seeing a ton of stuff about promotions.

Now, true - some posts are just a spoiler, no other info showing to say what the spoiler contains and players have no choice but to click them to see what they contain...So again, not a 100% full proof system, but it can help if one just puts a small blurb before their spoiler (ex. above the spoiler - put the words 'New Promotion Info')

As to when to use the Banner...The best time to use it is when you are sharing information that is about something not on the game yet. It does not need to be used for a general comment about something on the game unless the comment contains information that is not yet known.

Here's an example;

Promotion Information


Now, here are two replies showing which needs a spoiler - and which doesn't in regards to this above spoiler.

Does not need a Spoiler Banner:

Thanks, I can't wait for these promotions to start.

This DOES need a Spoiler Banner;



Hopefully this clears up a little bit of confusion and helps people understand a bit better why the banner should be used.

Also - in regards to why the Mod team (at least myself) has not edited/censored unspoilered posts over the last few pages. Many of them were/are asking the same thing...It was my hope that allowing them to remain visible for a spell would help cut down on the times the same question was asked (I think I had to type the reply about what dates promotions were starting at least 5 times in less than 2 pages). That - and to cover them all would lead to 70% of the last few pages being nothing but censors...which might make it hard for people find information

The Mini-updates were things like the change in species name of Horse to Riding Horse - the adding of Draft Horse as a species, etc.

Very minor things that don't quite yet require a full announcement with all the bells and whistles that announcements bring

I thought that this promotion:

was starting today! What happened?
