Thank you Cam^^ I didn't think I'd be home to try for him, but fishing day ended early due to conditions being 'meh' and we got home so when I looked and didn't see any picks posted, I zoomed off to find one XD I saw the one I posted and went 'ooooo...perfect to lure that boy in!' *dances* I'll probably hold on to him til the right Sphinx comes along...though I'm sure all of them will pamper him^^

I have the one I got in trades last year. Haven’t gotten around to attaching it yet. Merely because I want to be kind to Mr. Pooka and I’m sure there are plenty of attachment requests he’s attending to from Heb. I wanted to wait until a lull, but then I forgot. It belongs to Lysippe, or at least is designated in my mind to belong to her. X3
I was here, just spacey and forgot! Glad someone was paying attention at least! *snugs AoM*
I always love Pharoah Adjo’s stable games! The horses are some of my favorite companions. *peers at Sphinxes* I wonder if there will be opportunities for charioteers this year!

Diplomatic Exchange - Round One Results
Oh, there were so many great entries! And that's super awesome and some of you went the extra mile to read through the webpage! I had just been trying to link to the image, but I guess it worked out for the best that it didn't work, lol. You all had correct entries, but as I said before, only three from each group can move onto the next round. So I've put your names in random and here are the results.
The top three in each list advance to the next round! Congrats to: Cameron with Thaddeus wolfrysk with Marcus springacres with Anaxagoras hybridsiren with Euthalia Phoenix Stardancer with Thetis SweetIntoxikation with Iva Males: Females: |

That’s the beauty of it though! As stalkers we never truly know anything other than Heb! X3
Congrats to the other diplomat entrants that made it through!! 💜

I'm so glad I was able to try for him. All the horses are lovely, but he was my favorite.
*snugs back* I entered for the word search as well, so that will be interesting to see who gets that pretty.
I need to get me a dragon...wanted one of those since they first came out too XD *whistles innocently as she sends in naming for her handsome stallion*
Congrats and good luck to the remaining entrants!

Diplomatic Exchange - Round Two
Putting the hieroglyphic parchments to the side, the scribe then brought out a new stack on papyrus, although this time the sheets were not blank as before. As she moved around the room, giving each of the six applicants a scroll, the Pharaoh explained.
"Just as it is important that you be familiar with our system of writing, it will also be essential for a diplomat to have some understanding of the culture and society he or she is seeking to negotiate with. With that in mind, our head scribe has developed a short test. Some of these questions touch on the basics, and others on more specific matters. Can you answer them all?"
1. What is the staple food of Khemet?
2. Although important structures in Khemet are often made of stone, what much more common material are everyday workhouses and homes made from?
3. Where is this plentiful construction material found?
4. Ahket citizens often enjoy playing board games in the cool of the evenings. Can you name one of the most popular?
5. What major Khemet crop provides the fiber for our linen?
6. What major Temple hosts the largest, most important festival in the city of Ahket each year?
7. What is the name of the recently discovered city, previously hidden in the vast desert, which is full of portals to other worlds?
8. In what military position did the Pharaoh serve, before the Crook and Flail chose him?
9. What organ does Anubis weigh after death to decide whether the deceased should be allowed into the afterlife?
10. What god is associated with the aspects of magic, writing, and science?
~~~~~~~*~*~*~~~~~~~
OOC:
Please send all answers in a private message to this account (Adjo), NOT my jeanstarwind main!
Deadline for entries is 9:01pm CDT/2:01am UTC June 7. That's roughly eleven hours from the time of this post!
Only two Sphinxes in each group will get to move on to the final round! If there are more than two correct entries, then all entrants will be put into random to see who gets to advance.
Good luck!
