Separate competitions are held for the three different size classes. Pull winners are determined by two factors, form (pose) and natural ability (paired with a splash of randomness).
Here is an example of a Lepitaur pulling pose:
~Animal must be in profile facing right.
~The further legs must be as hidden as passible by the closer legs.
~Eyes must be focused to the right.
After the best "form" are picked out (at least three per pull), natural ability among them comes into play. For each of these "best," a random percentage is generated (using a computer, dice, or other method). These animals' features can add or detract from their final numbers. (Added numbers are advantageous, subtracted are hinderance.)
~Stocky build +30%
~Lean build -30%
~Short legs +15%
~Long legs -10%
~Long tail -20%
~Bobbed tail +20%
~Other tails +0%
~Mane +10%
~Horns +10%
Note: Because dice are rolled, an animal who is at a natural disadvantace can still win over a "better" one. This simulates the luck involved, and because animals can have their good days and their bad ones.
Additional Rules
Lepitaurs may enter only in their size class.
Pull harness is allowed but not required. (You can download it here: geocities.com/vickiebreedz/id15.htm )
Modified (hex-painted) Lepitaurs may enter but modifications to make them stronger (beefing up the muscles or something) will be counted against in the final tally, and they must fit into the three normal class groups.
Mixed breeds or hybrids may only enter hybrid pulls but can earn points by the same scale as pure Lepitaurs.
Points
Pull entries are usually accepted for a month and points are awarded depending on the number of entries. (The same picture may not be entered two months in a row.) When ties occur, both entrants get the higher number of points.
When you win, feel free to take a ribbon!
Less than 5 entries
Winner = 3 points
6 to 10 entries
1st = 5 points
2nd = 3 points
3rd = 2 points
11 to 20 entries
1st = 5 points
2nd = 3 points
3rd = 2 points
HM = 1 point
Over 20 entries
1st = 5 points
2nd = 3 points
3rd = 2 points
HMs (up to 3) = 1 point
Titles
Strongest Pulling Champion should be retired from races.
~RPC. (Reserve Pulling Champion) = 5 points
~PC. (Pulling Champion) = 15 points (5 must come from non-HMs)
~SPC. (Strongest Pulling Champion) = 30 points (10 must come from non-HMs)
