Stable: Bridled By Force
Host: Giannia Rossini
Information:

This event will be run in two stages, with two sets of ribbons. There will be a Qualifying-Stage, and a Championship. The Qualifying-Stage will run continuously from 1AM on 30Jan through 11:30PM on 3Feb. The Championship will run from noon until 2PM on the 4th.  We hoped to have a live YouTube feed, but that seems unlikely, though we do intend to record video and post it, as well as have a webpage with current results available.


The Ranch will be closed or the Championship, except for two judges, and one competitor at a time. Twenty Finalists will have five-minutes to make as many runs as they can, to post their best time. The Finalists will be determined by the best Qualifying-Times. Since not everyone who runs in the Qualifying-Stage will actually be able to attend the Championship, the top-20 qualifiers who are ACTUALLY IN THE STAGING-AREA AT THE START OF THE FINALS will get to run in the Championship, starting with the fastest-qualifier.  The location of the staging area will be provided to the top qualifiers.


Ribbons will be awarded for best qualifying times and for the Championship, so you can ribbon even if you can't attend the finals.

 

The judges will be Darius Renneville and Kimba (Giannia Rossini), neither of whom will be competing in the event.  Their decisions will be final.

Quick-jump is prohibited.  Pony-tack must be worn, including body-harness, hoofed-boots with horseshoes, bridle and bit, arms behind the back with visual restraints.  Rules posted at the track must be followed, as well as the instructions of BBF Level-3 trainers and above.  Ponies may roleplay but no OOC harassment will be allowed in the event area.  Spectators will please sit on seating provided.  If the scoreboard needs reset, official standings will be posted on Pony Info Group.
