baldr

In Norse mythology, Baldr (old Icelandic: Baldr, Latin: Balderus) is the god Ase of light, beauty, youth and love. He is the son of Odin and Frigg. His wife is Nanna, and their son Forseti. His domain is Breidablik, who is in heaven (or Sweden, according to the Ynglinga Saga), in a land from which evil is banished. Out of jealousy, the god Loki causes his death. Baldr is then sent to the world of the dead and Loki is punished for his misdeeds, precipitating the arrival of the prophetic battle of Ragnarok where the majority of the gods will perish. Nevertheless Baldr will be spared and with some other survivors he will take part in the revival.

Water Balloon fight is back with some changes


Special page for the Rainbows

The Vacation Prizes


For those who haven't played the Trick or Treat/Celebration contests in the past, the points above each gift indicates the threshold at which you get that gift

Collections (we just started, so I only have one "card" so far)

this is a prizes page for the Water Balloon fight, which I'm assuming are the possible UFO gifts you can win, as the prizes I posted for it in another post were what you win based upon your ranking

Do we have any kind of info about the Hippogriff?

Those prizes look pretty generous for the water balloon fight. Hope it's true that we can catch a harmony pack UFO! As for the promo, meh.. I love the Halloween version but it is SUPER expensive.

Have to say I think this is perhaps one of the worst divines I have seen in quite a while. It will drop roughly every 24 days but this promo tends to be an expensive one, so I kinda expect better unless this promo can be done in less than 20 passes.

co-management changes? I'm praying it's not true.

Do you know if the amount of points we get for ranking from throwing an ufo depends on how valuable the gift is? For example if I throw some carrots will I get less points than if I throw a harmony pack? Could someone please ask this for me on prepod?

introducing the new co management changes will be the biggest mistake howrse has ever made. @ow I hope you revoke this - you will loose thousands more players. This game used to be very profitable for you; you’re ruining it to the point where you will loose almost all your players and be forced to close. Disappointing.

For the water balloon fight, is it even possible to get to the top 10 players if you aren't already? How many points does it give for you to send on the gift? So, if you sent on every gift could you achieve a high ranking?

If testing for the water balloons hasn't happened yet (or that isn't a promo where it does happen), ignore this

These promos have nothing to do with your ranking, anyone can get in the top 10 as it depends on how many you find and send.

the co-man changes are dire and it'd be great if the people who work for Howrse/Owlient, actually played the game even a *little* bit competitively so they can see how tragic it is

Have I missed something? What changes are they making in to co management? Have we talked about them in this topic? If so then could someone please let me know from which page I should look.

There's a topic about it on PrePod.

Woah woah woah hang on a sec, what are the changes coming to comanagement? I don't use it really, but keeping in the know is important to me. Plus getting a heads up on negative changes is a plus. :/

It becomes more and more apparent everyday that Howrse is out of touch with its players, anyone that is in teams or just plays competitively in general will suffer from this, and for what real benefit? What about those of us that never log out, can we never let anyone co our account? I use the stay logged in as this is a password protected personal computer and this will be a MASSIVE inconvenience to me as a result.

Coman changes - I just want to make it clear to all that this change was NOT run past the Ambassadors. I for one would have fought against this but I'm quite sure it was planned well before we were voted on.
