ok as an example of what needs done to clean up things

How to name an animal
1. What would you call it if it was your real life animals
2. Ask someone for help, be carefull of contests though as you loose money on these
3. Look at the animals features, like color, variation and details. A white animal can get a wintery name like snowstar or the like.
4. Add a brand to mark who is the breeder, like if your farm is Teals Glory, you add [TG] Snowstar.
5. Use the pedigree, combine ansestors names. Like if the mom is Gray Cloud and dad is Fire Shock, call the animal Fire Cloud or Gray Shock.
6. Use other languages, find a dictionary, like Fuego (spanish for fire can be a good name for an animal with red fur)
7. Descriptive names, like actions or the like as Leaves playing in the Wind
8. Theme names after mythology or other things, like you can name your cats after disney figures, dogs after cookies etc
9. Add an adjective, like Happy Ulo, Sad Fido
10. use a name generator, you can find one through using google
11. Username's __________ user #

Events

One way to make money is through entering events, which also helps up your prestige.

What are they? acording to game help files
Quote:
The Stats your animal has are not directly checked in events (except for speed), but they help your animal in other ways.
* Strength determines how well your animal resists the rigors of an event, causing its condition losses to be lower.
* Intelligence helps your animal to train for events by increasing the max amount that can be trained for an event, and increasing the amount trained each examination.
* Speed Gives a direct bonus to your score in each event you enter.
* Agility determines how quickly your stats (strength, intelligence, speed, agility and stamina) increase if you choose to work on them during examinations.
* Stamina determines how quickly your animal regenerates during examinations.



Before you enter it, its benefisial to train the animal, which you do by changing it from no exam cost to one of the stats, and then take exams. You can also send it to others to help get it trained faster, as it train a little for each exam, so the more exams an animal go through the more trained it gets.

There are several things you can train in, stats, training and special. Some find that the speed stat and special value is more benefitial to train in, then the training option itself. Of the Stats though only speed counts towards events.

To enter an event you look on your left hand menu in the game, click events, newest events will now be an option on the right hand side, click that, and now you get up an oversigth of all the events. Make sure to check the entery fee before entering an animal.

To make your own events, go back to events, then on the top in the middle of the screen it will say create event. Click it, and remember that you have to pay one tird of the price, so to make an event with 1 mill in prize, you have to pay 333k to make that event. Screen pic illustration

Look to see which type of events are popular, you need at least 4 enteries to make money. Make the prize somewhere between 10 and 100k, dont set any limits on the event, and advertise it on the contest board.

etc (aka i am to lazy to go through all 18 treads on this topic to compile it)

lol this was just set up as an example, to post to your tread on making a guide

on how you should aim to make it so its easily readable

aka index on top

then a summary including the most important info, and then link sources like in game pages, other treads etc, thus making it posible to go look on other related topics because everyone explain differently, and one way of explaining may make perfect sence to one person but not much to the next..but in a good oversightable guide you cant aim to explain everything 10 times in different words
