trivia board game

ok, for the trivia game, I was thinking that I could set up a chutes and ladders game. Instead of rolling dice though, you would pick up a question card from the deck, each question would be worth so many points and they would be shuffled at random, just like a dice would be. However many points you get, is how many spaces you get to move. There would be a separate deck for bonus question as well. If you land on a ladder, you would have to answer a bonus question to be able to go up the ladder, and same if you were to land on a chute, you would be able to answer a bonus question to try and 'save' yourself from going down the board. Whoever gets to the end first would win. we would keep playing until 3 people made it to the end and those three would get to pick from the prize box in order of who won first.

oh and I should mention that the piece that everyone gets to play with, would be a fakie pony as my daughter has tons of those and that wherever there is a bonus question on the board, there would be a pony sticker to indicate it, because I have tons of those from swaps and stuff. Just to make it a bit more 'pony'.


I found this on the internet, I think I could make one pretty easy out of poster board and construction paper.

another update :)

I have picked up the supplies now for the rehairing tutorial. hopefully our hair will be here for the meet though! I got a message from custompony.com saying that my order had been shipped, 10 days after the order was placed!! so I'm not super stoked that it took them so long to get it together, but we still have 20 days, so....it should, hopefully.

I also have gotten a bunch of stuff together for the prize box.

**update**

hi all, I just wanted to let everyone know that I just made a hair order from cutompony.com. Everyone will have one skein of hair (enough for 1 ½ ponies) for our re-hairing tutorial. I ordered extras as well, just in case we do get a few more people of if people bring someone along with them. Everyone coming does need to bring their own bait pony.

As well, just a reminder that we will be doing a ‘secret santa’ style swap, and so everyone needs to bring one excellent condition pony ($10-$15 value) as a gift for someone else. Please bring it wrapped with your name written on the outside somewhere.

We as of right now have four confirmed people and 2 maybes. It would be nice if we could get a couple more people, however, if it just ends up being a bit more of an ‘intimate’ pony meet, that will be okay too. It just means less chaos, and we will be more able to really get to know everyone. Please let me know if you plan on coming with anyone besides yourself. hmmm…what else?

Pony Trivia! Between now and then, I will be getting together a list of about 25 pony questions, varying in difficulty. There will be first and second place prizes!!

As far as food goes, I will have food here for everyone, but I am asking that for every person that comes, that each bring some sort of snack item, whether it be chips, pop, candy, or if you choose to cook or bake something, by all means, go for it. if I can figure out how to use the barbeque between now and then and it is a nice day, maybe we can go in the backyard and make burgers. Please let me know if you a have any allergies or food restrictions!!

I think that is it for now. I’ll keep everyone posted about any changes to the events. Let me know if you have any questions about anything. Thanks!


heart. Jenn

About Me

i live the simple life so to speak, but a bit of an eccentric one. i have an extensive vintage my little pony collection and shelves of only the geekiest lunch boxes around. nerd? perhaps. really i love to collect anything vintage and i enjoy being a big kid entirely too much. i love to sew and make cute things. i am vegetarian; i love to cook and bake. i try and be conscious of the decisions i make in this life. i recycle. i reuse. i compost. i try to live as plastic free as possible. hippy? no. hippies never looked this good in a 50's dress and high heels.
