deleteaccountpls Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 A few questions: Can a single character compete in multiple events at the same time? Also, can a character compete in an event even if they lost in another one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosewind Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 A few questions: Can a single character compete in multiple events at the same time? Also, can a character compete in an event even if they lost in another one?Yes, characters can compete in multiple events at the same time.Events are self-contained by the staff running them, so "losing" in one event does not disqualify the character from participating in other events.

BaconofChaos Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Query: Are there age limits or a "junior" division or anything? It recently occured to me that apart from Lyra (who I don't think would be into this) all my characters are colts or fillies.Alternatively, I seem to remember a rule that allowed crossover characters to join in special events. Is that still in effect? Because I do have Chrysalis... Just saying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manestream Posted July 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Colts and Fillies are fine to participate- its not the actual physical ability of the pony that will determine the winners, but the style, quality, and unique flair of how the character is played that will win a pony an Iron Pony title Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojo Posted August 11, 2012 Report Share Posted August 11, 2012 Will the scoring be Olympic style (1st place - Gold, 2nd place - Silver, 3rd place - Bronze) or simply a 'Top Score Only' Winner's circle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueblood Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 I certainly enjoyed this; it gave me a chance to do a story arc with my new character, and see some really good examples of writing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarringtonSleuth Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 That was fun. It looks to be quite the process behind the scenes, though. There must be a lot to look over and more to scrutinize just to pick the outright winners in each event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
