My phone is dying so I'm going to go and let it charge. Is there anything writing-wise you want me to do while I'm gone? Any descriptions or whatnot?

(OMG yes, if you are able to research and create a short description for reigning that would be great! I've got some up just for english so far so you can look at those to get an idea. Just a short one, nothing too long, perhaps the kinds of horses [lol prob quarter horses] used the attire and what it is, basically. And if there are specializations for it (I'm pretty sure there's not from what I have been able to tell from reading, and from when I went to the FEI World Cup I saw reigning, but just in case Im mistaken!) You would be the bestest ever!)

Yes please! I'm trying to find it now, reading some articles.
Lol yes for sure! I'm putting it under games, with vaulting. I thought about doing them as sub disciplines at first, but with one being english and the other western, I was like, eh....and decided they're seperate.

Ok then and this i my final answer: I'll head train reigning, Indian relay, and trick riding. If I can do four then I'll also do barrel but if someone claims it before that it's ok with me

I know literally nothing about horse riding except grab the reins and hold on for dear life
That said, I'd be perfectly willing to roleplay a student, or perhaps even a veterinarian character if you'd be willing to create a role for that?
Either way, I'd love to join this cx

Reining: Often referred to as "Western dressage", reining is a western riding competition where risers guide cantering horses through precise patterns of circles, spins, and stops. It can be performed indoors or outdoors so long as there is dirt underfoot. All horse breeds except Stock Horse breeds can be used though quarter horses are most common. Normal Western riding eqipment is used but bits most be competition approved and horses must wear leg protection. Riders wear long sleeved shirts,jeans, and cowboy boots and hats. In most competitions chaps are also worn. Spurs are allowed but whips are prohibited. Certified equestrian helmets may be permitted occaionally.
Indian relay: Indian relay is one of America's oldest sports originating in many Indian Nations as war games, hunting tactics, and more. Now it is a dangerous sport showing an exciting test of skill, courage, athleticism, and teamwork. Seven teams race at breakneck speeds and leap from one galloping horse to a standing horse held by the "Holders". There are four people and three horses per team: jockey, two holders, and one mugger who catches the galloping horse after the jockey leaps off during the "exchange". Tracks are typically one half mile but can be longer. Some events require risers to dress in Native reglia while others dont. All races are ridden bareback. Any breeds may be entered though mostly thoroughbreds and saddle horses are used.

I don't want you to have to put all that work in, Silver. I know how busy you are, especially with the job search. How did that interview go, btw? If you want you can still be a mod, though

(Ah well their loss. You'll find something better, your worth more than a silly place like Hot Topic! You'll be excellent at anything you do!
Yeah, it's no worries! I'm sure we'll find someone who has plenty of free time to throw into it, someone looking for something to do. That leaves the rest of us busy folks to just be mods and enjoy the fun! XD We'll find someone dedicated that actually has time on their hands soon ^.^

Still want to be a mod though? I think with five mods it won't take too much time out of everyone's schedule...

Thanks, Silv ^.^
Hello, absolutely! Need a 'coder' or graphic designer that can put together our layout, and also one more mod that will take care of the rp once it starts- such as making sure rules are followed, creating plot and drama, approving joining forms and the like.

Yeah I want a background but not sure about image, maybe just a color, or swirls or something plain like tht. Color scheme for the rp is red black and white (the colors or the academy). It will be six posts in total, the same basic order or what I've got now (posts are listed which order) with a post at the end giving credit to everyone. Have you done anything before, maybe I can take a look and see if that is the style I'm going for (to make it easy) or if we need to go in another direction?
