Alrighty guys! If you haven’t noticed, the old H-I-G-H-S point system was a little confusing and outdated. So I took on the task of creating a brand new one! Please
LINK all images of your horse to your horse’s reference image in order to get full credit. It would look somewhat like this-
[link] -----Note that pictures created of your horse by other players also count toward's your horse's points as long as you link them.
Starting Points
Points are earned when the horse is born.
0 points for a starter
5 points for a second generation (even line)
10 points for a third generation (even line)
15 points for a fourth+ generation (even line)
+1 point for each offspring the horse has.
+3 points for a foal reference
+5 points for an adult reference
+2 points for Purebred foals (Babies your horse has)
+1 point for Purebred cross foals (Babies your horse has)
+1 point per grand-baby
-----Note you may only have one reference, so you either make an adult or a foal reference. You can change it later on, but the previous reference wouldn’t count in your point system. References need to have the horse colored, no background or shading is necessary.
Training Images
For any
Event Specific pictures of your horse. Ex. Halter, Showjumping, Dressage, Cutting, ect.
Head shot: 1
Full body: 2
-Plus tack: +2 (full tack for what they are doing)
-Plus Rider: +5
-Plus background: +2 (Photo backgrounds don’t count)
-Colored: +1
-Shaded: +2
-----So if I had this picture of my mare (
[link]) it would be worth 7 points because it’s a full body shot +2 , she has the necessary tack +2, there is a background and it is colored +3, however the horse isn’t shaded so I wouldn’t get the shaded points, even though the background is shaded somewhat.
Shows
Show images need only qualify for entry in a show. That means, if you meet the criteria of the show, it is accepted as a show entry.
Group shows +8 points for entering UNLESS you placed
1st in Group shows = 13 points
2nd in Group shows = 12 points
3rd in Group shows = 11 points
Outside, Mini, or Circuit Shows +5 points for entering UNLESS you placed…
1st in Outside shows = 10 points
2nd in Outside shows = 9 points
3rd in Outside shows = 8 points
*Shows that haven’t been judged yet count as you have not placed in the top three until it is judged.
Other Images
These are any other images of your horse that aren’t training, shows, or a reference.
Breeding Images also go here.
Headshots: 1 point
Full Body: 2 points
-Colored: +1
-Background +1
Chibi full body colored and shaded: 2 points
Chibi head shot colored and shaded: 1 point
-----Chibis are considered any MLP styles. No uncolored chibi images are pointed because they are too easy to rack up points on and don’t take long to do.
Titles
Getting Titles for your horses has some benefits-
--Special classes are hosted for competitors of the same level. (There is less competition in the higher level classes which equates to more wins for you. This also prevents champion horses from stomping on beginner horses in every class)
--The higher amount of points you have give your horse a slight benefit in randomly-judged events.
If your horse wins a Futurity you add a

to it’s ranking.
If your horse wins Champion you add a

to it’s ranking.

Breeding Titled Horses
If your horse has a title and breeds you can get bonus points for your foal.
Grand Prix Horses 18 points per parent
Premium Horses 14 points per parent
A Level Horses 10 points per parent
B Level Horses 6 points per parent
C Level Horses 2 points per parent
-----Therefore, if you bred an A Level Mare and a Premium Star Stallion together you would get 24 starting points for the foal in addition to their generation points, reference points, and purebred points.
If you have any questions please send Lenalee11 or one of the other founders a note. Thank you

Current Registered Top Horses
To make it easier for players to find other top mares and stallions, I have decided to place this at the bottom of the points system. In order to have your horse listed here, his/her points must be up to date with the H-I-G-H-S system above. If your horse is up to date in the system, please send Lenalee11 an note asking to put your horse in the register. Thank you.
