The Round Stable

Guess what time it is daaaaaaaaaahlings? :vogue:

Welcome to the contest made for the most fashionable of forum members! In order for you to participate, you must have a status symbol that shows off how you're a member every forum member should know! The crème de la crème! A Rarity's Roughneck! If you do not have one, then be off, as this is for the elite to attend!

Faaaaaaaaaabulous prizes!

The winner gets to choose the fabulous vintage 2011 look-at-my-hair version (right) or the exciting new 2012 I'm-a-proud-diva version (left)!

Like the Faithful Students' contest that is so yesterday, this contest will feature three qualifying stages. What they're going to be I won't reveal until you get there, but they will be different from the last contest and will themed accordingly. This time, however, I ask that if you want to enter this contest, I ask that you please commit! Dropping out of a contest made for your favorite character is so much a disgrace that if anyone thinks of doing so, I will be taking away their Rarity's Roughneck gangtag!

:gonkity:

Don't be a flop!

Anyway, should you choose to compete in our fun contest and show some Rarity pride and are okay with not dropping out, then I would love for you to join! Only and all Rarity's Roughnecks are allowed to post in here whether you're in the contest or not, but I ask please that only eligible contestants post with entries. If you are not competing, don't post joke entries or how much better you think you could have done. It makes it a lot easier for me to read and prevents saturation of ideas. So remember, anybody who breaks these rules are subject to a GENEROUS ban!

:sweetielarm:

THE FIRST STAGE: :sweetielarm:

I love you, Rarity.

If you're sure about joining in, choose a position on the grid to place your jewel (post a coordinate).

Yep, that's all you have to do. Once I've put up your number, there is no changing it. And as always, I'm giving a chance for gangtag-less people to earn a Rarity's Roughneck tag as well! Be advised that if you earn a gangtag here, you are also committing yourself to the contest. That said, your task would be more difficult than anything I'm putting the contest goers through: you must draw Rarity being fashionable! This does not need to be a super high-effort fanart; heck, I can even accept MSPaint entries. However, I want it to be more than a stick-figure/nondescript blob scribble job and I want Rarity showing off at least one piece of clothing or accessory. It'll be up to my discretion if your art is worthy or horrid! :-o

For all these things, you have until Sunday, June 10th, 11:59pm PST to enter or submit an art! Now be off!

Aramek chooses C 5 for his placement!

Because only the BEST Diamonds have all five C-ratings taken into account, Carat, Colour, Cut, Clarity, and Certification. :vogue:

Are you all ready for the best and most fabulous Gang Contest?! :iiaia:

I have this urge to do a Fancy Pants recording of the OP.

I'll take F 3.

May only the most graceful and classy forum-goer win :vogue:

Not in the contest, still interested in showing Roughneck solidarity (solidrarity (not a fat joke about Rarity)).

Oh come now Sir Reginald Swarthwaldy Ragnarsius XXXIV. Participate! Tally, Ho, old bean, it is shaping up to be a ripping good time, and I'd be crestfallen to be without your accompaniment. :vogue:

Alas, Lord Oswald Aramekkio Tarsus Gravidus* Goldmeadow Rubaeo Swathewarner of the Second March, this contest must take your most august and commendable presence for a balm against my somewhat regrettable absence. May you find comfort in this: I watch most eagerly.

*Also not a fat joke

I choose B 6!

I am most excited for this contest. :vogue:

A5 gives max E-tanks in Mega Man 2 so let's go with that!

If Willsun's not letting me enter every contest through my giant pile of paintube gangtags I'll just have to enter THIS one!

(?) · by **Mechanical Ape** (?) » Sat Jun 09, 2012 1:24 am

Finally! A contest for those of us who conduct ourselves with beauty and grace. :vogue:

Rarity, will you kindly advise this forum as to the status of it?

Indeed it is.

I shall choose F1, because Rarity is Fabulous and there is only one of her.

(?) · by **JaceNV** (?) » Sat Jun 09, 2012 1:46 am

Aww yeah. Put me down for G 6.

(?) · by **Wylie** (?) » Sat Jun 09, 2012 2:15 am

I will take E4, because both E and 4 were looking lonely. :vogue:

(?) · by **CapacitorPlague** (?) » Sat Jun 09, 2012 2:41 am

Excellent! Let's get the fabulousity started! D 2.

(?) · by **PonyAught** (?) » Sat Jun 09, 2012 4:24 am

Ah, a contest for the most sophisticated members. :vogue:

As I already have a McD Rarity figure, I shall casually observe.

(?) · by **ToastGhost** (?) » Sat Jun 09, 2012 7:39 am

I would love to enter as well, though I do hope you don't mind the Pinkie Pie fashion faux pas that is my avatar :wat:

A1, please. Because there is only one A in Rarity, and because it looked so simply divine.

(?) · by **Milli** (?) » Sat Jun 09, 2012 7:43 am

Welp I'd like to first earn my gang tag by posting some fashionable Rarity fanart!

Now I don't know much about them pony fashions, but I'd like to think ribbons are pretty fancy!

If this is deemed worthy of the tag, then I'd like to claim C3 please!

Awesomely well done! Consider yourself in, although I can't get you a gangtag quite yet because I'm updating on the go. The dress is very fancy indeed and is straight up Rarity's style. So high society! :iiaia:

Also I am very pleased with the turnout so far. Rarity's Roughnecks are promising for sure.

(?) · by **synthorange** (?) » Sat Jun 09, 2012 10:58 am

Going for A1, because Rarity doesnt settle for second place, and also, steak sauce.

Edit: oh looks like A1's already spoken for. Guess I will have to settle for second place. A2. :ohrarity:

Forgive me for butting in on a contest where I don't have the requisite tag to participate, but ToastGhost already claimed A1. :-I

Good luck to everyone, by the way! :vogue:

If you so wanted to, you can compete and if you win, bestow your prize to someone of your choice due to the element of GENEROSITY. Still, no skin off my back if you don't feel like competing. I just didn't want the nature of the prize to put you off from joining in on the fun.

(?) · by **dayseeder** (?) » Sun Jun 10, 2012 1:05 am

I have no drawing skills whatsoever. I do, however, have a Shine Bright Rarity that I festooned with feathers, and so I shall risk entering an ever-so-artsy photograph of her in lieu of original artwork. Perhaps I am flying too close to the sun, but is it not better to try and fail than to never try at all? :iiaia:

If, in your generosity, I am allowed to enter this fabulous contest, then I pick 4 H. Because, horses. :gotcha:

I plan on gifting the prize if I win.

Way to steal my idea if I got to the final round, jerk. :ohrarity:

I mean, I generously concede the position of "first person to state that idea in this thread". :vogue:

(?) · by **Crow** (?) » Sun Jun 10, 2012 5:38 am

I wouldn't be surprised if most of us had the same idea. :iiaia:

(?) · by **ToastGhost** (?) » Sun Jun 10, 2012 7:31 am

It's very true. I had planned on doing it if I were to make it past the first round. I even have a Rarity figure of my own, I just wanted to compete with some of the crème de la crème of ponygoon high society. :vogue:

I shall take D8, a spot fit for a queen! :vogue:

Too bad.

Also you must choose a coordinate. If you don't get back to me before late afternoon tomorrow, I'm revoking the gangtag. Quickly, now! We're waiting on you!

And another thing I thought of: if you do want to give your winnings as a prize to someone else, I must confirm with your giftee if they're okay about getting it since I'll need their shipping address. That is, unless they were involved in last year's Secret Santa, in which case I might be able to work a surprise.

Who knows. You might not even survive the first round.

(?) · by **logicow** (?) » Tue Jun 12, 2012 5:43 am

I've been asking myself if I should participate or not, since:
1) I had a rarity gangtag before my current one.
2) I already own Happy Meals 2012 Rarity, Fashion Style Rarity, Plush Rarity, Ceramic Rarity.
So, here's my effort for the situation. Behold, Rariminty:

If you accept it, I'll take the spot G3.

Roughnecks coming out in force for this contest. :iiaia:

So how come Yarma was telling me he couldn't enter on account of being a Minty Murderer? :rainbert:

Is it because he never actually tried to enter?

(?) · by **Willsun** (?) » Tue Jun 12, 2012 8:10 pm

If he's had a Rarity's Roughnecks tag before and is willing to draw something then sure.

Parasprites are savage little creatures that cough their spawn in your face.

Gross. Now for revenge.

D8, G6, G3 is eliminated due to parasprite. :starity:

Please be patient for round 2. Why don't you go take a spa treatment while you wait and praise Lord Schmooze?
