I was playing Furry Paws and I saw that they have a few mini-games that you can play a set amount of times per day to earn cash prizes. They even have automated blackout bingo rounds that start every 10 minutes! I realize that if this suggestion were to be accepted, it might only happen much later. I think it could be good especially for new players who need to earn money to get their lines started.

There could still be regular bingo for when there are extra-awesome prizes, of course.

When did we lose show earnings? Why am I just discovering this? lol

I think we removed them about 6 months ago! They were adding so much money into the economy overall, but not enough that most players even noticed they existed, so prices on everything just kept rising, and since we've removed them, inflation has gone down considerably :). It was sort of on a trial basis to see how it went, but most people haven't noticed and it's helping keep prices steady, so it's been a good thing.

  if mini games are added it would give players something to do after training is done, we would stay on HP longer, also we could play the mini games or not it would be our choice, Im all for it after reading so many great ideas from other players, like the idea of hpd or points as rewards, achievments as well

I hope the mini games that are chosen will be mobile friendly!!!

Since i do alotta hping via phone!

I do like the idea of mini games on HP.

Though I don't really have anything interesting to add to the discussion at this point, I just wanted to show my support! :)

lol Sam I honestly hadn't noticed until I read it here XD I think maybe adding the earnings back for a new players only would be benficial to them if it's possible to do it that way. Like have the accounts set up to be in new player status for say 3-4months so they have the chance to earn extra HPD with the shows and mini games while learning about HP and getting themselves established

I completely deviated from the main topic but just felt like throwing that out there since it was in the brain and kinda on same subject, kinda....

P.S. The New Player status idea came from another game I used to play where essentially new players had the NP status for I don't remember how long, 6 months? Anyways they have special tracks and series they can run their horses at to earn extra game cash and to have a better chance at actually making money vs going up against the seasoned players and their well-bred stock.

I KNEW that was something that we used to do!! People thought I was crazy! I distinctly remember earnings from shows a few years back when I was still fully active.

I'm also totally in support of the mini games. It'll keep players on longer and it'll give us something fun to do when we're waiting on shows to run, people to respond to messages, etc.

Adding mini games isn't going to suddenly turn us into HL, BTW. They won't be mandatory, so if you don't want to play you can just... Not click the link.

It's a really golden opportunity for players who can't offer services to still make money (think of our basic players! They exist! LMFAO) like murd said, and give everyone else something to do when training is done for the week. Which has always been a huge demand/criticism.
