Happy Breeding!!

How do I submit my Designer Breedable?

Happy Saturday everyone! I hope your weekend is off to a great start. Today I want to talk about those gorgeous designs that you have been working on!

Do you have an amazing creation that is matched up with just the right traits for the design that you imagined?

Did you know that you can submit that project/design to AMOC to be displayed in one of the many designer albums on the AMOC facebook page? So now what do you do?

1st Create a notecard and name it your creation name, avatar name & date then on the inside of the notecard list the information about your project/creation, for example:

Name of your project
Your Name
Date you are submitting i.e., 03/09/19
Horse/K9/Bird/Ponie Stats
Parents Stats

2nd  Please list what stats you will want to see on the completed creation/project. It does NOT have to be completed to submit. Parents full stats (including UUIDs) MUST be included.

3rd  Take a picture of the breedable as it currently looks (you can always submit an updated picture at a later date). Make sure the picture is full perm and then drag it into the notecard.

4th  Drop the notecard into the collection box just inside AMOC Headquarters located at http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Amaretto%20Ranch%20Haven/100/152/22

Do not send notecards to AMOC officers — all notecards/submissions must be put in the AMOC mailbox only. Notecards that are put in any other mailbox will be deleted.

Your creation will be posted as soon as we verify that there has not already been a similar project previously submitted. If there is already a similar project we will verify the date the picture was taken and that will determine the creator (think of the picture as your copyright)!!

You will only be notified in-world if there is a question about your design. Otherwise, you should be able to find your submission, within a week, on the AMOC facebook page. There are several different albums, each sorted by colors or traits, so be sure to check them all!

You can take a look at some of the many AMOC certified designers that have been submitted in the past from Festive Traits, Coloring Book, Sweet Treats, Reds Reds & more Reds and so many more right here https://www.facebook.com/pg/AMOCoalition/photos/?tab=albums

Hope to see your amazing creation soon!

Until next time this is Snookie hoping you have a fun weekend and Happy Breeding!

ARU is for Y, O, U

Happy Thursday Amaretto Community! Recently we had our 2nd Graduating class at ARU and many more of you graduated from Amaretto University.  Classes at ARU have been going strong since that graduation with many more of you now attending classes in order to be a part of the next graduating class.  As one of the teachers at ARU I would love to see tons more of you attend the classes each week.  We have classes at ARU on Monday, Wednesday and Friday and we teach them twice a day to give you more of a chance to fit them into your schedule.  Each class will only take about 10 minutes and if you complete all the classes we offer you will be eligible to graduate in the next graduation ceremony next spring.

 

Classes are very informative and can even be lots of fun!  We also offer time at the end of each class for you to ask any questions you might have about whatever we cover in class that day!  It’s a great way to get the answers to some of those burning questions you might have.

 

Every month we post the calendar of classes on the website so you can see which classes are coming up and plan accordingly.

You can find that calendar at this link: http://amarettobreedables.com/pages/ARUCalendar

We also offer the ARU Website where you can register and see which classes you’ve taken and which ones you need.  Simply go to the terminal located in the ARU Classroom touch it and follow the easy instructions to sign up.  You can find the ARU website at this link:

http://amarettoranchuniversity.com/

 

As you can see from the calendar below Avalon and Mal are teaching a class on “Getting to know the breedable menu of the Barnyard Birds” tomorrow.  Hopefully many of you will attend and who knows maybe even fall in love with those adorable Barnyard Birds all over again!

 DecAru

Until next time, Happy Breeding!!!

Let’s go to the Races!!!

If you have never been to one of the horse races, you are missing out on some exciting fun, and if you have you know what I’m talking about. Even if you don’t race it is so much fun just to go and watch.

 

Well A.M.O.C is having there

 

Race for Fun

DATE: October 26th. 3 pm SLT

Time: starting at 3.00 pm

Location: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Gerri%20Amaretto/3/109/23

 

As you know, one of the goals of the AMOC race is not only to make us socialize more, but make this race itinerary… meaning, we’ve been bringing this race to other members’ sims.

 

Below I have listed two sets of RULES, General and Specific.

 

General rules:

 

1) Flying is not allowed

2) Jumping is not allowed

3) Using Huds different than Amaretto official one is not allowed

4) Sick horses (yellow or red written) are not allowed

5) If a horse has 2 different racing classes between speed and stamina it will race in the category corresponding to the highest class (example: an horse with speed class D and stamina class C will race with C racing class horses)

6) Any horse has to start crossing the starting line only after the “go” of the racing system, after 3 times in the same race and horse will fail the start crossing the line before the “go”, the rider will be disqualified for that race

 

 

Specific rules:

 

Market owner’s race

 

1) Market owners can race themselves or delegate 1 rider to proxy for themselves

2) The winner wins, as prize, the possibility to have next monthly race in his/her own place, if the winner, for any reason, doesn’t take the prize, it goes to the second runner-up and so on, along the ranking list

3) Once the market owner wins the AMOC market owner race, he/she won’t be able to race on their own venue. If they want to run that specific race, they need to take into account that they

Won’t be able to take the prize 2 consecutive months if he/she wins the race, in this case the prize will go to the 2nd runner-up

 

So Ladies and Gentlemen that are sim owners… take a chance to get all that traffic to your sim, and enter it! Those that already have entered, can enter again, of course, the only time you cannot enter is 2 consecutive times, aka if you won last month, you cannot enter the sim owners heat for this month, but the next month of course you’re more than welcome to join that heat again.

 

Everyone that will enter the race will receive like just last time an AMOC Certificate of Participation! Also there are ribbons for the 1, 2 and 3rd place at each heat.

 

So mark this on your calendars, you don’t want to miss this race!!!!

Hey guys how are you today? Hope you are enjoying a lazy Sunday, those are the best!
After attending the AMOC general meeting yesterday I wanted to take some time out today to spread the word
about the AMOC Hallow Weenies Contest!

What is a Hallow Weenies Contest?
Don’t worry I wondered myself when I first heard about it.

It is a contest to show off your Halloween themed horse! Bring the horse you’re breeding for Halloween and show it off.

A Contest board will be up and the ones that get more votes will be the one that wins.
This is an AMOC contest so it means to vote you’ll have to be in the AMOC group.
Why a contest board.. because that way you don’t see who is winning till the very end! Oh yeah…. we’re mean like that.. will be Halloween.. so will be trick or treat for real!
The contest board will only allow one vote for person too.

Now what can you win:

1st, 2nd and 3rd place will be posted as new designer horses in the AMOC Site.

More surprises will be waiting for you.. but you’ll have to wait till the time to see if it a treat or trick!
On the last day, Sunday at 4 pm we’re going to do something scary…..

… A show with the best ugly fugly costume using your avatar and try to match our most horrifying horse creations!

After that show…. we’re going to announce the results of the voting that lasted for those 3 days.

Rules for participation:

Only 1 horse per person.

You need to put in the board behind the horse a picture or art work (if the project is not finished yet) of the horse along with a notecard with the its traits. if you want you can add some info or history about what led you to do that project.

This is a totally free event for you! you will be not charged for the use of the prims. but you will have to bring your own food and salt!

NO SELL “in LOCATION” will be allowed!
This is just to show what you have.
Of course you can display your own LM where people can find them
for sale.

I know how much you guys like to dress up and Halloween is loved by many in sl so here is your chance to show off! All you have to do is find a AMOC board at Boomtown click it to get the application.

The sooner you send in your application the sooner you can guarantee your participation, as of course there will be a limit of applications accepted.

I cant wait to see all the scary creations that you guys bring out! I have also included some pictures of the haunted Hallow Weenies location below Scary!

Well get those applications into Bundy Xue or Mami Deerhunter. If you need more information please message an AMOC officer! This is Ava over and out!
