[atrb=background,http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y216/woogan/AbydosStickyMid.png,true] Read these rules if you should wish to challenge a lead stallion for his territory, or if you are a stallion attempting to steal a mare. Territory Challenges You must be a stallion that is not currently leading a territory to challenge. However, you may currently belong to a territory at the time of challenging [It may be the same territory you are challenging for]. Only stallions at the age of 3 or older may challenge for territory. To challenge for a territory: Post in this board IC making a challenge to the stallion. The stallion you are challenging has 3 days to reply to your thread. If the stallion does not reply, the territory is automatically yours. You may not challenge a stallion who has notified the site an extended absence unless that individual is gone for one month. If he does reply within the time limit, you each then have 3 turns each to attack each other. If, at any time, one of the fighters does not reply in 3 days, the challenge is automatically over, and the inactive member loses the challenge. Make these posts count! After you have each posted 3 times, the battle is over. Staff will then discuss the quality of these posts and decide upon a winner. The winner will be announced, and that stallion will then lead the territory. Stealing Only stallions may steal, and they may only steal mares. Stallions belonging to herds that are not leaders do not need to be stolen to change territories. To steal a mare, post a riddle in this board that provides clues as to which mare you are attempting to steal. For example: If you are attempting to steal a mare named Lily, you may write a poem describing that type of flower. The stallion to whom the mare belongs to has 3 days to reply to the attempted stealing, and they must answer correctly with a maximum of 3 guesses. If he does not answer correctly in that time-span, the mare belongs to you. If the steal is successful, the stallion who made the steal must explain the riddle for the staff to make sure it is a fair steal.
