:D

This is a tough question! Everyone always does such an amazing job! So much time, dedication, and effort on everyone's part every year!

Obviously, I'm quite partial to all that I have entered and very proud of them all! And I still have all their lines going (even the ones that I didn't breed at the time of doing them for mascot that year).

Isla Sorna - Jurassic Park themed - loved the backstory for her that Nekkers came up with! (I'm horrible at the backstory portion of the contest.) I also adored the custom graphic that Nekkers created for her and I'm still SUPER bummed that I can't see it on Sorna's page anymore! ugh

Atlas - because she was dedicated to my now 7 year old son and he is my world! And she finished in second that year.

Blue Ghost - came in second in points to Ringwraith; almost my personal best in all my mascot trainings

Tart

Gravestones - finished in second place

Baihu

Chubby - because he was dedicated to my great grandmother

I also liked these ones because a majority of my entries were team entries. I love the social aspect of mascot and being able to work with someone on every activity throughout  the duration of the contest.

Now, my favorite that was not mine, I'd have to say Ringwraith for the horses and Too Hot to Handle for the dogs. I loved watching all the work that was put into Ring. I mean over 33mil points! Wowzers!!! That's some dedication! Not to mention a lot of money! And i was on the edge of my seat waiting for the foal to be born (they took forever to breed her ugh). I also enjoyed the backstory for these two and the activities they had for all of us observers to participate and follow along with their journeys.

Ooooh an easy one!

The Mandalorian by our stunning Mango! 

1. This breathtaking animal left me in awe. The coding, the backstory, the effort and energy put into creating such a remarkable entrant left me speechless. It's one of those entries that will stick with me for a long time.
2. The animal CSS page and the backstory. The love and effort Mango put into this pony is evident, such detail and skill!
3. The Mandalorian inspired me to pick up my own line of knabbers. 

* Who is currently your favorite Mascot of all time? Ringwraith

* Why are they your favorite? Obviously watching her go up in points was amazing. But it was everything about her. How their team of three worked together so well. Her picture makes me drool. The CSS on her page. She’s the whole package.

* Outside of points gained, what else about that specific Mascot did you like? All of the activities that they completed with her, plus the bonus stuff they offered to help boost her popularity!

* Anything additional you'd like to share about your favorite Mascot? The team’s passion led me to pick up my own line of dutch warmbloods, which I still have going! 

* Who is currently your favorite Mascot of all time?
{9W} Io (ID #133101) - Dog Information

* Why are they your favorite?

Mango did beyond amazing with her image, the page coding, the backstory, fun ways for players to interact (the music playlist, etc). Everything was unique and fun and so well thought out.

* Outside of points gained, what else about that specific Mascot did you like?

IO felt more then just a pixel animal. It was very enjoyable watching the creativity she brought about through the activities that Mango created around her. I randomly found the playlist again awhile back and listened to it over again!

* Anything additonal you'd like to share about your favorite Mascot?

While I have never competed in Mascot contest I cannot fathom the detail and time everyone spends on these. Each year I look forward to seeing the graphics, images and creativity come to life. IO really brought my attention to the contest for the first time as I had not been too involved in any of the fun that was involved with mascots.

Currently my favorite mascot of all time is Frank Jr...for obvious biased reasons. xD But...I was so stoked to have actually won and ephe and sat were awesome teammates! Frank comes in as a hot second because he was the OG and ephe's image of him still cracks me up to this day.

Other mascots not my own, but I just really enjoyed the creativity of the names/character or art [in no particular order] include:

Clifford
Tarot
The Alchemist
Jinx (looove this image!!!
