When about generally does this begin?

Im debating on waiting to start a project if its coming up soon?

I think may but not 100% sure. Good plan is book your tickets now for then if your going with a ticketed entry

What is it, exactly?

What is what ?

The mascot contest! 

I thought the Mascot Contest started in January, but actually, Kaly may be right on it being in May. I agree that it's good to get a start now, as everything gets to be dredges during that time.

@Jaya  - The Mascot Contest is something that is held yearly here on HP. There are always 4 categories categories. No ticket Horse or dog and ticket horse or dog. On the first day, players will choose whether to go alone or with a group and the animal they're working on for the contest. Then on the second day, they have to write a backstory on their chosen animal and give them a custom image. Horses/dogs will be thinned out over time if they drop out or do not hit the selected dates for each event. At the very end, players will then take a vote on the animal they like best and that is how the winner is chosen.

Oh it’s an HP wide contest and there are 4 categories 2 for horse and 2 for dog and the entries you can either do no tickets/ no private shows or be able to use tickets and private shows . Your goal is to get the highest pointed animals plus you get to enter a backstory and custom pic for your entries and people vote and there is one winner announced in each category and you get certain prizes and such ! It’s really fun!

i hope I explained it well enough for you! 

Thanks eir! I do not think I’m great at explaining things XD

@R.oxxy - You're welcome! Excited to see what horse you enter this year! :) 

This year sign up for the Mascot Contest began in mid-January and the Contest officially started on February 11! You can look back on events that happened on HP if you go to News > Calendar and scroll through the months!

If it’s coming up in a few months I might as well save money and wait for the contest next year 

It’ll start sometime in January or February, but I’m not sure of the exact date yet!

Thanks to everyone who replied!
