The Pretty Pony Pageant is a monthly dress up contest presented in the style of real life horse shows!
Utilizing the beautiful digital horse images of Horse Eden Eventing and the tack and decor found there - community members create entries for the classes in the current show.
The PPP Show is judged by a panel of judges (the Show's Judges Panel) who are selected from approved PPP Judges. Using a rotation and anonymous system, the several judges are chosen to place each class to their liking just as in real shows. Because multiple judges submit scorecards for the same classes, the scorecards are tallied and the horse with the highest ranking score wins! Just like a real show - the entries are ranked from First to Last, with the top three presented ribbons!
Every entry into the Pretty Pony Pageant walks away a winner - with First, Second, and Third places earning a ribbon they can hang up on their stable page; First through Sixth place earn in-game money, and any place after 6th can choose an item from the PPP Item Table.
While most of the classes offered to the PPP Participants are 'Realistic' classes or ones based off real life classes or disciplines, every PPP Show has a couple of 'Fun Themed' class that the entire HEE Community can vote on. The voting is run slightly differently due to being a Community Voting Class which employs the Poll System in the HEE Forums. With the Poll System - everyone with an HEE account has access to the PPP Community Vote Poll and can see all the entrants for that specific class all at once. They can only vote for their favorite entry to win and they can see instantly who is in the lead.
The Community Vote Classes - or the Fun Themed Classes are often based on seasonal holidays, special rides, or celebrations: Valentine's Day, Fairy Tale Inspiration, and Awareness Ride to name a few. Some of these classes are Community Interactive - meaning even if you didn't enter a horse into the show, you still can participate and earn special prizes!
Special Ribbons commemorate special classes!
All ribbons state the class name, the placing, and the year won!
End of the Year Awards
At the end of the PPP Show Year,
A Grand Champion and Reserve Champion are chosen in the Championships!
The championships are where the first place winners of all the classes are put against those that won the same class
(Example: Dressage Championship is against the winner of the January, April, July, and October first place winners). They are judged by the entire PPP Community to help decide which entry was the prettiest!
