Festival - Perfect Pair Design Contest - results!
Posted: Sun Mar 10, 2013 1:49 pm
I don't know about you, but I really enjoyed this contest! It's definitely going to have to return sometime in the future 
Thanks so much for your entries!
Here are our perfect pair winners I picked amazondreamer's and Pristine's entries based on their designs and compatability with their new mates, and LostDollie is our random winner (although I think they look quite nice together too ). I hope we'll get to see babies from these pairs sometime soon!
And here's the new Sams together so you can get a look at them without their perfect pairs
Congrats!

Looking for the right partner can be a long and difficult process, but so worth it in the end! Why don't we help out some Samanayrs who haven't yet found their ideal mate? With all of the single Sams in the area for the Festival we're bound to find someone for everyone!
Your task is to design a mate for a single mare or stallion that you own, or for a single Sam that you've borrowed (with permission) from someone else! The new Samanayr will be drawn to be interacting with the existing Sam, and their cert will be changed to the pair cert:
The two Sams will be required to start a Song together, but it's up to the owner(s) to decide whether to make it a pair Song or open the Song up to other mares.
I'll be picking two entries based on creativity, uniqueness, overall aesthetic appeal, and compatability with the existing Samanayr. This doesn't mean they have to be all matchy-matchy, but try to come up with a Sam that you thiink would make interesting foals with its mate!
I'll also be picking one or two entries randomly
- Please enter on PI or the Sam forum, not both places.
- If you don't have any single Samanayrs you'd like to enter, you can enter using a single Sam owned by someone else with their permission. If you win they'll own the original Sam and you'll own the new Sam.
- The owner of the stallion is responsible for setting up the new Song.
- Only Samanayrs not in a Song can enter.
- Since there's no roleplaying involved in this contest the pair need to be of compatible species, so no Mystic and Misery, etc. You can see if the species you're interested in using has any breeding restrictions on the species page - http://samanayrs.net/species.php
- Any traits except 'unique' or species-specific are allowed!
- Samanayrs are very small, so when designing please keep in mind that it can be difficult for me to do very small or detailed markings.
- Since Samanayrs are hand-colored it can be difficult for me to match up the exact colors, but I'll try my best!
- Your entry can be written, drawn, or a combination of both. You won't be judged on the quality of writing or drawing, just on the design itself. Visual aids are most appreciated, particularly for detailed markings and that kind of thing.
- Entries can be as detailed or vague as you'd like, but please be sure to fill out all of the info on the form as a bare minimum.
All entrants will receive a random tradeable item
