:D ~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~ Congratulations to our August's Player Spotlight Winner!Kuwait Kuwait (#1690), our always supportive of the events and activities with a great sense of humor friend! ...Community Chatter...These little shout-outs come from various players, not just staff!

"Kuwait has a unique sense of humor that makes chatting always interesting!" ...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? On Horseland Members' Forum 2. What is your favorite thing about HP? Seeing my animals gain points, and seeing pedigrees grow. 3. How long have you been playing for? 5ever. 15 years. 4. How did you come up with your player name? This one? No idea; it's from my HL days. My proper name is Murdock, which is the surname of my bestie of 21 years. 5. What is your favorite breed of horse or dog to train? German shepherd and Shire 6. What caused you to pick the breed(s) you train and breed? Have loved both since I was a kid. Dream breeds of each. 7. How do you come up with names for your animals? I look up lists of things. I also go with authors, music artists/bands, games etc. 8. What are your current goals on HP? Just to get my current GSD, Bloodshot, to as high as she can go. 9. Do you have a favorite animal? (It can be your own or another player’s you admire!) I'm proud of my main GSD because I've been working on that line since the breed was added 15 years ago. 10. Who’s your go-to graphic artist or coder? Are there any services you offer? I don't buy graphics, really. My most recent pic purchase was from Tragedy. I don't offer services with the exception of ticket and backup sales. 11. What is your favorite Site-Wide yearly event? 24 DoC! 12. What other contests or activities do you usually participate in? Forum ones that don't involve graphics and coding. And seasonal ones like ToT and Easter egg hunting. 13. Do you have any training or breeding tips to share? Just do it your own way. If it makes you happy, then that's all that matters. 14. Which seasonal layout art is your favorite? Winter. 15. If you could change one thing about HP, what would it be and why? I'm happy with it as is. 16. What do you spend most of your time on HP doing? Training! So much training. ;_; 17. What is your favorite Club? I don't have a fave. ~...Real Life & Random Questions...~ 1. Where are you from? Belfast, UK 2. Does your place of residence have any sort of quirky history fact or legend/tradition, and if so, what is it? We built the 'Titanic'. 3. What do you do for work? I'm a cleaner. 4. Do you own any horses or dogs? Nope. 5. Do you have any other types of pets at home? A void called Pickle. 6. What are your favorite breeds of horse and dog? German Shepherd and all of the draught breeds, especially Shires: like me, they're built for feed, not speed. 7. Do you have any hobbies? If so, what are they? None, per se. I do like to read. 8. What’s your favorite color? Black. And anything fluorescent/neon. 9. What’s your favorite Holiday or Month? I think June because it's PRIDE MONTH. 10. Do you have a favorite vacation spot? If so, what or where is it? I don't go on vacations any more, but my fave place is still Tollymore Forest Park, here in Northern Ireland. I would live beside it if I could, so I could go in whenever I wanted. 11. Do you have any special talents? If so, what are they? Does sleeping count? 12. If you could own any breed of horse, what would it be and why? Shire. Loved them since I was a kid. I dream of meeting one some day. 13. If you could own any breed of dog, what would it be and why? German Shepherd. Loved them since I was a kid. Neighbour had one called Copa (after the Rod Stewart song, 'Copacabana') and another neighbour's grand-daughter had one called Flint. 14.
