Sneaking
Failure to follow these rules can lead to you no longer being able to sneak with your characters (can still be snuck from by others).
# Stallions can sneak for up to two mares from one person at a time, limit two ppl.
# Can sneak for a territory but its not recommended unless the leader is inactive.
# Mares can sneak for freedom and/or their foals freedom.
# Sneaks must be decipherable and must have hints as to what you are sneaking for and from whom.
# When sneaking for a mare, you must also include hints to what land she lives in
# Stallions can only block for half their herd or the majority if the herd is an odd number (ex: Blocks mare A, B, C (3/6) OR A, B, C, D (4/7).
# If a stallion blocks mares A, B, and C, but you were sneaking for mare D, then you don’t have to wait for the three days to be over. A moderator will check to see if it’s valid.
# Moderators will not remind you to post the meanings of sneaks. A sneak will remain open for blocking after the three days, until its meaning has been posted.
# Sneaks can be in riddle/poem form or just said.
# Must wait three days, if the person you are sneaking from does not block by then, say who it was for and a mod will declare it valid/invalid.
# Cannot sneak for something somebody is already challenging for.
# If you are going to cancel a sneak then you must still post who the sneak was for with the reasoning of your sneak. Also, when you are asked to reveal who/what your sneak is for (whether it was invalid/valid) you must reveal the reasoning of your sneak as well (how each line related to what you were sneaking for, etc.)
Let me give you an example of a sneak...
Shadow was sneaking for a mare called Golden Dream, her stallion is Demon.
Dark as the night, this stallion is,
wanting a mare, the color of gold she is.
Gaining her would be like stealing from a raging devil
but oh, such a sweet victory, for many think of her in their sleep
Taken by a brute, so hateful is he
she didn't have a choice, taken by force
but the mystical stallion wants her back
and would risk his life to get back a mare, made from pure dreams
Scared and shy, this mare does not fight back
but the shadows have a way of knowing
and he wants her back, so determined is he
that no devil will stop him from the Gold.
Demon does not block Golden Dream, so now you post what your riddle meant.
Dark as the night- The stallion is black, like a shadow
wanting a mare, the color of gold she is.-Golden dream is the color of gold.
Gaining her would be like stealing from a raging devil-Demon is a word associated with Devil.
but oh, such a sweet victory, for many think of her in their sleep.-Referring to the fact that part of the mare's name is dream.
Taken by a brute, so hateful is he-Demon is an evil stag
she didn't have a choice, taken by force-Golden dream was taken by force.
but the mystical stallion wants her back-Shadows are almost mystical, so Shadow wants this mare.
and would risk his life to get back a mare, made from pure dreams-Again referring to the fact that this mare is a dream.
Scared and shy, this mare does not fight back-Golden dream is a shy mare
but the shadows have a way of knowing-Shadow however, knows of her suffering.
and he wants her back, so determined is he-Shadow told Demon that he would get her back.
that no devil will stop him from the Gold.-Shadow refers to Golden dream as his gold, referring to her coloring again.
This post would be considered valid because it has many hints to the stallion and the mare that Shadow is sneaking.
