BULP Info and 'How to...'

BULP

What is it?

BULP: Best Unbiased Linear Prediction

BULP plays a big role in breeding. It determines how much genetic potential from the Dam or Sire that gets passed to their foal. Foals are born with -100 BULP and over time achieve +100 BULP. 

How do you BULP?

It's easy! Well most of it is. You need to have...

Won 20 competitions - 200 BULP points

Reach age 10- 40 BULP points

And bold the 3 best genetic skills- 130 BULP points

Bolding

Building is when you gain the maximum amount of skill. If you bold in dressage that means you have gained the maximum amount of skills in dressage. That does not mean just training. You must gain all training skills, skills that come from rides AND from participating in competitions.

Top 3 Skills

The too 3 skills are not the highest skills you have at birth. 3 too skills are genetic. Under genetic potential you will find genetic potentials of each skill. Find the top 3 and train in those skills.

Competitions

After training you will need to do competitions to top off the bolding. Do the competitions that require the skills you are bolding. Do those competitions until they give you no more skills and then you're bolded! now after all that you may have a few wins under your belt as a bonus and now you just need to win a total of 20 wins! then you are done! 

I hope you all have a ton of fun! I would recomend some Morpheus arms if you want to BULP fast,
