Very disappointed. Doesn't remind me of summer at all. Just my two cents.

I like summer's design Palm trees and sand are an adequate representation - it works for the majority of people. Of course those in Alaska or the Great Plains won't have the same ideas as those of, say, Southern California or the coastlines.

Me: It reminds me of a beach.
My mother: It reminds ME of seaweed.

Just had to share. I like it, though!!

Summer reminds me of those palm tree leaves

I'm lukewarm on the designs of the seasons. I see what they represent but it just doesn't speak to me. Part of the reason might be that I'm not really interested in the benefits they offer. And there will always be someone who has a different idea of a season... winter doesn't bring snow to every place, nor does fall bring colorful leaves.

Int server is through to the Festivities. Spring is available to all players in HoPs. Lottery prizes:

Can you buy tickets too? How long will the lottery last?

Thanks for the official prize list! BE one of the first times I will not mind winning the lower tiered items. I need a /hoard/ of 2* bonus tack to affix to my unicorn herd.

The Lottery lasts 5 days. You can buy tickets for 200e with the price tripling each purchase. You can also send tickets to friends (one per friend for the entire Lottery) for 200e each.

Wow, the Lottery is...different looking. In a very good way! I love the new design, hopefully that's how it will look here too.

Ugh that summer doesn't really show summer to everyone. To me summer is the hot bare outback, aqua ocean and pure white sand. Not the classic palm trees wtc...

I find this funny because I can buy a pass with my reserve the day the lottery ends, therefore I can't use it to ge Spring. Coincidence?

*squeal* Lottery ticket UFOs!!!! I free tickets!!

I just got 19 tickets from my passes,buying tickets,and trading I might win a divine finally!

*Squeals again* Howrse I love you for the 1000th time! I got a Z. Bolt, aging points, 2** tack, and some other stuff! I just needed a Z. Bolt today after I bought a male uni for 39k (unis are really cheap right now!) and need to bolt him to a her. * squeals*

I'm just assuming that Summer will be the next divine offered, if they follow the real world progression of seasons.
It's winter right now on Howrse, fortunately they didn't make us wait for spring for the Lottery to begin. It's possible that the current season on Howrse doesn't have to match the divine being released.

I wasn't talking about Howrse seasons. Those honestly didn't even factor with me, as they're arbitrary.

It just seems odd to consider the rate at which these will occur. Let's say for the next round we can trim our time down to 10 days. Then five days for the lotto. We're looking at each cycle only taking a little over two weeks.

We'd be done with the new set of Seasonal divines within two months. That doesn't seem... Logical. Is Howrse really going to release a new divine bi-weekly? Past divines were generally monthly or even bi-monthly. Some were spaced even further apart.

Howrse did say we'd see smaller promos peppered throughout the larger challenge cycles but it seems they're favoring the challenges and that makes me wonder what their ultimate goal concerning new divines is - and makes me wonder how they'll even keep up with new divine releases.

Perhaps there will be a re-release of older Divines, like the solar system ones we just had... just a thought.

Oh OK! Thanks, I completely misunderstood what you said. I agree with what you're saying.
If they release the divines in quick succession, that surely defeats the original idea of the Big Challenge which was to stretch out promotions and give the Howrse Dev team a break. If, on the other hand, we unlock each lottery as fast as we did this one, and the main prize isn't a divine or Wild, will that lead to lack of interest in these challenges?
I'm going to be interested to see how they handle this.

I was wondering about the possibility of re-releases.

Howrse said during the Solar System sales that it would be our last chance to get them. But it's possible they may reintroduce the Gems or Winds. It's hard to say.

I guess we'll get an idea of their plan after the lotto.

Hmm , but they cannot re-realse wilds , because we already had a last chance wild promo , this may be harder then the Howrse Team thought it might be...

Players over on Int are saying their Donkey coats got update.
But I can't see a difference on our US Donkeys. Anyone know a confirmed answer?

I looked, but I don't see any difference in the Int donkey coats...
