"Iri has been a friend to me since day one of coming back to HP after a long hiatus and sheโs always there to talk about anything!" ...Interview Questions...Anyone who wins P.o.t.M. can answer as many or all of the questions as they want or feel comfortable answering! ~...HP Questions...~ 1. How did you first learn about us? I actually found it on google. I had quit HL when they went to the new style and made it more child like. I was playing a different game and wasn't liking where the owners were taking it and wanted something old school. 2. What is your favorite thing about HP? I have to say the community. I have made so many good friends on here and love talking to anyone who will listen xD 3. How long have you been playing for? I made my first account in 2012 and played off and on for a few years, then in 2018 I took a long break because I was getting married and life was getting crazy. Then my birthday I was sitting at home and was like "you know I miss HL" and funny enough I got an email from HP that week and was like "you know what? Let's see whats going on in HP land" and I've been back ever sense. 4. How did you come up with your player name? Uh it's kind of super lame, I am second generation Texan and we come from Irish heritage so I put the two together. xD 5. What is your favorite breed of horse or dog to train? The Norwegian Fjord. I love those fluff balls and their manes are so cool. 6. What caused you to pick the breed(s) you train and breed? i've bred them in every game I've ever played for last 20 years. IDK they are just my thing and I love the different shades of Dun and again those manes. 7. How do you come up with names for your animals? Music, book characters, random thoughts that come in my head when I should be working. I've even been starting to do sports themed now. 8. What are your current goals on HP? Breeding top quality horses or dogs of any breed I pick out. I'm currently on a mission to own and train the top of as many breeds I can this year. So far I have helped bring 3 in partnerships and 1 on my own with many more starting and I am hoping by end of year I will have 6 or 7 highest of the breed. 9. Do you have a favorite animal? (It can be your own or another playerโs you admire!) I have several. I love Eldrawyn, she was my first ever mascot and is a beast. I mean she is ending with over 24 million points in 13 weeks. O_o Eros, the baby boy that Whynn and I did together for mascot hoping that people would you do not have to spend a lot of mascot. My favorite non owned animaly is Natorious Ziggie by Insom. The fact that she made her in memory of her sister and the amount of love and work put into her is just awesome. I really hope she hits number one in her lifetime. 10. Whoโs your go-to graphic artist or coder? Are there any services you offer? I usually make my own art, however I do love Tragedy, Eldrea, and Uta for art and Whynn and Aeon for coding. I offer graphics, tickets, private shows, digital art, being the in house name generator. 11. What is your favorite Site-Wide yearly event? Mascot contest. I had so much fun participating in my first mascot contest and not only winning with one but two in one season, freaking crazy. 12. What other contests or activities do you usually participate in? Double point month has been a blast, or chat line contest 13. Do you have any training or breeding tips to share? Take your time and as hard as it seems, wait on those breedings. If you plan on doing a project put them in private shows. That can get you 4-6 million points easy. 14. Which seasonal layout art is your favorite? Summer 15. If you could change one thing about HP, what would it be and why? mmm maybe more ways to make money? I see so many players struggling and the only way they can make money is through buying upgrades for others. 16. What do you spend most of your time on HP doing? Training. I think I have 16 active training accounts right now? 17. What is your favorite Club? Bookworm anyomus. ~...Real Life & Random Questions...~ 1. Where are you from? North Texas 2. Does your place of residence have any sort of quirky history fact or legend/tradition, and if so, what is it? We had a TV show named after us called 'Dallas'm, my AG teacher in HS's parent's owned the farm hand house that they show the rand hands coming up from to Southfork. The city I grew up in had a Hulu and HBO specials made on it. If you like true crime look up 'love and death' on HBO and 'Candy' on Hulu. Unfortuantly I know mostly the true crime history about where I grewup. 3. What do you do for work? I am a full time insurance customer service rep. Part time groom for my trainer and part time show secretary for local hunter jumper clubs. 4. Do you own any horses or dogs? I own 2 horses and two dogs.
