#42092 Posted on 2016-05-29 17:06:31

warning long post is long lol

so i decided to put up my game play what i do every single day, maybe this could help people out? also feel free to put up yours as well or what you do different because i would love to learn different strategies and maybe start a 'test' herd around it :D

i also want to say that ever since i switched to this my horses have jumped up drastically in stats so it works well for my herd but maybe not for you :) and this is everything that i do daily -so the good, the bad and that thing everyone already knows how to do XD

*drag image to address bar for full size*

when i log in first thing i always check a couple of things: the first couple of horses that placed constantly (in this case it was budweiser and amarillo sunset), how much money i have, my messages/notifications and my level (i am stuck on level 16 curses!)


next i go to the bank and collect my interest, cry at my profit loss for the month and look at my show earnings. today was good (: fay thinks we have enough for her frivolous lifestyle XD


NOW i decide to take care of my horses, i have auto care/vet/farrior/show, etc. so first i make sure my horses are vetted and shoed. i decided to do this 'walkthrough' thing after i did this step sorry!


next i go through to each of my divisions and auto care, fay thinks she is so cool because she is an arabian -_-


when all the horse are taken care of then i go to my stables and collect my earnings from shows/training/riding school :) i also double check that none of my horses are not boarded because i have done that before XD also nevada is no help at all :P


i always wish for money at the fountain because when i wish for items i get 1 apple and when i wish for the horses i get nothing XD also, fay is prego with baby #?? honestly she has a lot of kids floating around lol but this one i am auctioning off :o and details for the giveaway are at the bottom!


then i go to the junkyard and pull something...boring XD


training time! i try to keep it all at my stables but for the local and higher i have to go to the training center for it :D


and i went to check for stat boost icons and noticed that a baby of mine turned 3! now he is old enough to be moved from youngstock to his division which in this case is the fire tribe c:


WHOOP WHOOP we got some that were ready for the boost. and srsly i love that icon because most of my horses are all over the place XD


now that is over with it's time to treat everyone c: i use prefixes on my horse names (ca, gr, ye, re, mints, etc) so that they group together in the division to make it easier when treating. the way i select treats is based on discipline so say jumping is speed and agility then you want to boost those stats to do better in that sport. and carrots=speed and yellow apples=agility then i have the mares eat carrots and stallions opposite so when i breed them the foal will even out more in both areas :) sometimes i might also treat my whole herd with sugar cubs, hay cubs or mints just to give them extra stats (:


we are almost to show time! seriously i know that it takes a long time till we show the horses but if any of the actions we did above move the horse into a new level it may not do as well in shows as it would've being at the top :) so now i select my horses that i want to show the rest of them will go to riding school. i select horses that are within the top 30 stats of the level (sometimes i just take a risk and somedays i want it to only be the top 10 stats before leveling up) so in the image i selected menma because she is 1 stat from the next level so not only should she do awesome in shows but tomorrow she will be in a new level (:


after i have my list selected from my whole herd i enter them in shows, i do auto show on cheapest because im lazy XD but when i try anything else i lose money so i just stick with this c:


riding school time! seriously this is the best thing since the opening of the recode i feel like my horses progress so much faster than before when they couldn't show well. i really appreciate abbey coming up with this and taking the time to code it! :D these are the 'times' that i have seen work for my herd my emphasis is on group lessons and trails c:

and that's it! when the riding lessons are complete i usually see if anyone is ready to breed and set that up if they are. then i wander around equiverse buying more horses i don't need and stalking the forums XD and now for the giveaway! i am giving away $50,938 evd and a 5/5 upgraded dressage tack set! :D Just comment below with your favorite thing to do on equiverse!

My favorite thing to do on equiverse is breed my horses! I love seeing the outcome of two different colored horses, and seeing the markings. I have a problem though, I breed TOO much XD

I can't do the fancy pictures(very nice by the way) but this is what I do


Treat everyone first(I noticed that if I take care of them before treating they don't gain stats, bad little ponies lol). Then I get take care of them, check to see if anyone has aged up to 3/needs stat point upgrades and then they are sent to the training ring.

Then shows, after I morn what I spent in show entries, I collect interest and wish for money.

Honestly my favorite thing is to go to the forums and just absorb all the info, what works for some what doesn't, it's fun, even if I don't contribute much.

Very nice madoka :)

I do the same things, just in a different order. I always show (and riding school the ones that I don't show, major $$$ maker!) my horses first (in hopes that if my horses are just on the cut off, I can get in the lower level shows before treating/training increases them into the higher one). And then treats, training, autocare, fountain, higher or lower/cointoss, and junk yard, in no particular order. xP

First my answer for the giveaway. My favorite thing to do is training and showing. I love watching stats increase as my horse levels up.

Wow, thaaat was a great (funny) read! I'm still in the process of figuring out a good showing/riding school strategy, so it's nice to see what you do :) I didn't even THINK to look at my horse's stat level (go figure) and how close they are because, honestly, all my horses are starting from the ground up! I may try to implement your strategy in the next week or two when my foals hit 3yo and see how it goes. Your horse's personalities are hilarious!

Right now my favorite thing is plotting breeding pairs and a hypothetical "wish list" of horses I'm keeping an eye out for my herd. That, and systematically reading everything I can on the forums! XD

The first thing I do every day is go to my Stables page and pick up anything I earned there. Then I go to the Fountain and wish for money. Then to the tack shop to repair tack.

Next, I go to the Junk Yard to see what I can get, then to the Item Market to sell it if I don't want it, and to look for good deals on things I use. Then it's off to Stable Expansions to get five more stalls and an arena, and to my Home page to expand my capacity by five. I check my inventory to see what items I need to stock up on, and then go to the General Store to buy what I need.

Now is the fun part - I go to the horses! I vet and shoe the ones that need it, and auto care for everyone. Then I check out any new foals (that's the best part!) I check their genotype, choose their specialty, and set them up with tack (and upgrade it, if necessary.) I make note of their birth stats and other things I find important, and name them. I sort any horses that have turned 3 into their proper division.

After I'm done all that, I put my riding school horses in their riding schools, give my horses their treats, and train them (and then check the Horse page for any who are ready to use their Stat Boosts.) I enter any eligible horses in their respective clubs. When the schooling horses are done, I pick up their money and items, and when Cron is done running, I pick up my interest. If I have enough profit left over, I may buy a credit. Otherwise, I deposit everything in the bank. Also, when Cron is done, I breed any horses that are scheduled to be bred that day.

In the evening, I hand-show all my show horses in show selected for stat gain, and create some shows.

Once a week, I update my horses with a notation on what treat they need, and update my stud fees to reflect any stat gains.

i will be ending the giveaway sometime this week just to let you know! ♥

@banner farms: i love love love watching my horses go up in stats its a huge motivator for me XD that's why when they weren't making much progress i had to switch up my daily care for them (:

@ducky: im glad you thought it was a great read XD i can't wait to see how this works for your 3 year olds once they start showing you can really tell you will do well in shows and who will really need those special treats to keep up with the herd lol and thank you! they are a bunch of crazies i have had years developing XD and i love the same thing as well! when i first get new horses i love pairing them with other horses and guessing their colors and trying to get them from 'poor' to 'excellent' xD also i use this coat calculator to see all the colors c:

@confessor: i totally forget about my tack! it's probably at 35% and im going to get a notification soon XD and i am so bad about foaling i usually give in a buy a instant birth because i can't wait 5 days but when i start breeding my huge herds then i will have to wait so i can't wait for those days to see the babies :D

i really need to start using the notes box and my journal to keep track of everything but i have always been pretty bad at that -dies- i just love what you do confessor! it seems like you have a fantastic system going on and i am def going to try doing a day like you do :D

I found a great color/coat genetics calculator online, so that's what I've been playing with for the last day or so. So. Much. FUN. I laugh because my boyfriend will ask me what I'm working on, and the best thing I could come up with was "Fantasy Football except with horses!"

I forget about my tack all the time XD

Anyways, I check show results and money, treat my horses, get them from the riding school, select the low statted horses/horses specifically meant for the riding school then enter them, wish for money at the fountain, get something for the junk yard, take care of all the daily needs of my horses, vet/shod if need be, enter shows, train the horses, and then stock forums and rescue center for any good horses that I probably don't need to actually buy. So I basically do everything you do, just in a way different order. At the end of the day I put all money back in my bank account as well.

As for my favorite thing to do on EV, well I think it would be to train them and breed them is a close second. (I haven't gotten to breed my horses yet XD I had them locked for the longest time because I felt they were losing out on stats. Hopefully doing a test breeding for the ones aging to 10 in the next few days.)

Thanks so much for posting this. I'm looking for ideas to gain a little more profit and stats while at the same time not taking all day to do it. I have several ideas to try in the coming weeks.
Some changes I am making right away are making sure that the treats I give are for the stats of the horse.

Treat before training

Pay attention to how close the horse is to the next level when deciding on show or school.
