:new: 9/28/16- I found the gaps between Great Foal (20 points), Excellent Foal (30 points), Awesome Foal (50 points), and Amazing Foal (70 points) to be too uneven. So they have been edited as seen below. Horses that are already registered these ranks via the previous system (including current and graduated foals) will not loose their current/graduated rank. However, current horses will have to follow the new system to reach the next rank up.
Changes have also been made to the points given out for a foals pedigree. Sire/Dam points have been changed from 3 to 2, and lineage past that has been changed from 2 to 1. Real Life pedigree has been changed from 1 point with a max of 5 to 0.5 points with a max of 7. Please edit your points calculations for current horses accordingly (again, if they are already ranked and this brings their score down, they will not loose their current rank).

10/24/14- Most of the old system has changed, so please re-count your foals points! These changes do not effect graduates, only foals and yearlings that are still registered now. All ranked foals have been placed back to the unranked foals folder, their ranks removed from the journals as well (eventually). Once the proper changes have been made, and your horse has a rank by the new system, send a note to the group with proof of the rank, and we will move your foals reference to the ranks folder and mark their rank in the journals accordingly.

:star:REMEMBER! This system is only for foals and yearlings under 5 years old that are registered with this group!! Horses who were registered with our group, but are now 5 years old, are considered graduates harpgs-best-foals.deviantart.c… and no longer gain points from our system after graduation/turning 5 years old.


These are the Levels/Ranks:

:pointr: Each level will have a special ribbon (in progress)

:bulletgreen: Great Foal - 20 points
:bulletblue: Excellent Foal - 40 points
:bulletgreen: Awesome Foal - 60 points
:bulletblue: Amazing Foal - 80 points
:bulletgreen: Best Foal - 100 points
:bulletblue: Top Foal - 200 points
:bulletgreen: Hall Of Fame Foal - 300 points
:bulletblue: Foal Of Legend - 500 points

:pointr: There will be a special Trophy for HoFF rank and FoL rank
The higher ranks are something that will take a lot of dedication to take, and are a VERY high set goal for a foal, but they are achievable through hard work and dedication.

:star: Once a horse Graduates harpgs-best-foals.deviantart.c… they stay the level they are at (they do not advance in the ranks) and they stay that level for the rest of their life.
