Beefalo Pageant

Exclusive to:
Only during the Event: Year of the Beefalo
Competing in a Beefalo Pageant is the only method of obtaining Lucky Gold Nuggets during the event. It can be initiated by hitching a Beefalo at a Beefalo Stage and talking to the judge at the Judge's Booth during the day. Only one contest can occur each day. At least 4 Beefalo Stages are required to start the pageant. If there are not enough players to Beefalo Stages, the extra stages will be occupied with Merm and Pig competitors with their own Beefalo. To initiate a pageant, all participating players have to hitch their beefalo to a Beefalo Stage. Beefalo cannot be hitched to anything if they are in heat. Once all participating beefalos are hitched, a player has to activate the Judge's Booth.

Once the contest begins, the Judge will tell the contestants what kind of beefalo he is looking for to be the winner. Then, the players choose the beefalo they believe matches the Judge's criteria. They only have a set amount of time to choose. Players choose by clicking on the beefalo or beefalo's stage, which places a ribbon. The choice is not set until the timer ends, so players are free to make multiple attempts to choose, but can only choose one.

After the players choose the Beefalo they think will win, the Judge will go through the winners starting from third place up to first. The player wins a large Red Pouch if they choose the first place beefalo. Players who do not win will receive a small Red Pouch. The Judge will also give out Pattern Scraps, the amount of which matching the total amount of participants.
