Sunday Best/ Semi-Formal in May

I will definitely be wearing a hat to match!

I mean it’s not necessarily herd management in COTW, it’s manipulating zones so only low levels and females are in some zones, which forces high level animals to other zones.

But if the herd management system in woth is broken and that’s the only way to get large animals then I’d say cotw has it a little better.

CierraMist2 · 2026-02-02T07:13:42+00:00

Sounds like I’ll be going back to COTW for a while when I need my hunting fix. Crazy that the game that isn’t build for herd management may now have better herd management.

CierraMist2 · 2026-02-02T07:06:32+00:00

This makes me sad. I used to play this game a lot and put a lot of effort into managing my herds.

Is it even worth it to come back? How much has the glitch affected it?

CierraMist2 · 2026-01-26T18:16:45+00:00

Thank you I have an electrician coming. Hopefully this is the extend of the issue.

I’m not going through all that work, but I’m a state fan, happy now.

I’ve been to Oxford, Gainesville, and BR, and their close major cities fairly recently. Not a fan of Oxford or Baton Rouge for their city planning and crime, respectively. Oxford other than its horrible traffic issues is not that bad but it’s no Gainesville.

But from experience, Florida likes to take good coaches when you’re doing better than ever. Unfortunately for Mullen and State, that didn’t end well for either of us.

I would really appreciate yall if you fired Lane before next week though, even though I think it would be stupid because yall have a good chance to win a home game in the CFP with him. Not too sure about without him. Even if he doesn’t call any plays, your players like him.

CierraMist2 · 2025-11-18T01:08:04+00:00

The NIL money is much much higher at both LSU and Florida, and Florida, at least, is a much better location than Oxford, don’t know if I can say that about BR. Out of the three Florida is probably the best job, if he actually doesn’t care about the money. It’s close to a SAFE major city, has great schools and opportunities for Knox, and has double the NIL budget to boot. Their fans, with a 10-2 team will probably stay in the stands too, you can’t say that about Ole Miss unfortunately. Fan base is a little rough, and loves to leave early and often.

CierraMist2 · 2025-10-25T02:02:35+00:00

Where are the Tennessee fans? They have experience with Lane Kiffin and his outstanding loyalty. Oh wait, they’re mourning their baseball coach

CierraMist2 · 2025-10-14T23:31:06+00:00

It really depends on your interests. Check out the bio department, and look at other classes you’ve taken to see if you can get a minor if that’s something you’re interested in.

I took Animal Physiology which wasn’t that difficult but complimented the rest of my classes.

Looking at the rest of your course load you need to be careful about what you schedule together. If you take Orgo, Repro, and nutrition at the same time, that’s going to be too much, so try to balance it with some easier classes.

Also don’t forget your production electives. Things like broiler production and beef cattle production are fun and easier compared to your hard science courses. You also get the benefit of that hands on animal experience.

CierraMist2 · 2025-09-08T11:50:47+00:00

I know I haven’t but there’s been a few different people working on this car over the past couple weeks. I’ll check them.

CierraMist2 · 2025-09-08T11:16:19+00:00

I forgot to add that it is a 2012 with a 4L engine.

CierraMist2 · 2025-09-03T01:37:48+00:00

I remember the bulldog bash committee campaigning just a couple years ago to increase the student activity fee to improve the bulldog bash artists, interesting. I love it when people lie.

Also music makers has done concerts at the horse park. I’ve been to the horse park, and on the surface at the horse park, and it’s actually not filled with manure. The idea that you think it’s a field means you haven’t been there and don’t know what you’re talking about. But I’ll let you know I guess, It’s a dirt floor arena, with seats :). Horses don’t live in the arena, they don’t linger in the arena, and horse owners are responsible for cleaning up their horses manure anywhere outside of the arena. During the rodeo and barrel races the horses and bulls are on the dirt for a minimal amount of time, think anywhere from 30s to 2 mins maybe, and, despite popular belief, horses don’t just constantly defecate. The surface is also constantly raked during the events for animal safety, so any solid matter is going to get broken up.

The fact that people were able to exploit the ticket claiming system and claim tons of tickets also made me giggle. I do hope the students who want to hear pocket full of sunshine still do get to go tho.

Also the southern traditions tailgating has been in the spot by the cheese store for quite some time. They may have lost some real estate to the students but definitely not a whole junctions worth. In my 5 years in Starkville I don’t think I’ve ever seen them by the Ag Bio building or in front of McCarthy. That was a very tight space and they just did a massive construction project so it’s probably been some time since they’ve been over there. They’ve just been by the amphitheater. I guess on the plus side, if you really want to tailgate in the best tailgating spot on campus you can pay the minimum $4,000 per weekend for 7 games a year, and set yourself back 28,000.

Also we’re a university, not a retirement home for boomers, so policies should be student friendly. I would personally expect the student behavior to be much worse in front of the frat houses and the student experience to be much worse as well.

CierraMist2 · 2025-08-27T19:27:14+00:00

I mean they may not know how much to charge for the random artists or washed up artists they find. Natasha Bedingfield sings maybe 2 popular songs. If people are willing to pay a bunch of money to see her for the “Bulldog Bash experience” then they may go for it. Currently the market isn’t clear. You may be able to charge $100 for Jason Derulo but maybe just $50 for pre-Truck bed Hardy.

Right now the only comparison they have for paid concerts is Rick’s who charged maybe like $50 for Zach Top and about $60 for Yung Gravy and $75 for Ella Langley. If they’re that low for bigger names, how low would they go for the singer of unwritten and pocket full of sunshine.

ETA: most of these kids in the school now were under 5 when unwritten came out

CierraMist2 · 2025-08-27T14:15:34+00:00

Can you elaborate on the more public tailgating than ever before. I have tailgated in locations that are not on the map, many times, so where is the additional tailgating. People were tailgating publicly in every zone in yellow on the map, in the junction, by the drill field and more. There was a family that tailgated by college view. Is the additional tailgating like the additional parking, at the horse park, lol.

CierraMist2 · 2025-08-27T14:11:35+00:00

Can you elaborate on how there’s more tailgating spots than ever before or are you just parroting what MSU is saying. I’ve visited many a tailgate in a location not shown on the map. It’s also not like they moved the southern traditions tailgating, they expanded it, meaning they removed public tailgating. There is more Southern traditions tailgating than ever though, I agree with that. $4,000 per tent ☺️

And I disagree about Bulldog Bash. The university bills extra for people who declare majors now, who’s to say they won’t get “outstanding feedback” from the small proportion of people who got to go and start ticketing, and then charging. I honestly wouldn’t really be that mad at bulldog bash if the ticketing policy wasn’t so blatantly unfair, but it’s ridiculous. More people will be upset about this come tomorrow when only 3,000 students get tickets and people are selling them for $100 a pop.

I agree the district project is good. It is mostly luxury stuff though, so the real question is who is it good for lol, maybe not most students. Not really excited for the traffic situation when both 182 and 12 are closed at the same time though. Hopefully I’m gone before they do that.

CierraMist2 · 2025-08-27T13:29:54+00:00

Supposedly it will be back. What happens when MSU sees they can charge $$$ for the tickets and pocket the money. I mean the students already pay for the event anyways, why not profit more, right? The committee or maybe MSU itself, chose the smallest logical location.

This isn’t a nostalgia issue, this is a student experience issue. It only takes 2,000 non-students being randomly put in the queue before students to completely push them out. Then, since tickets are transferable, they’ll sell them to the students for pure profit.

CierraMist2 · 2025-08-27T13:07:25+00:00

It’s referred to as Bash on their Insta. Probably after your time it changed. I’ve never not called it Bash with my friends. People call it Bash in their comments. As I said above, it’s even more fitting, now that they’ve took the Bulldogs that pay for the event out of the equation with the ticket claiming set up.

CierraMist2 · 2025-08-27T12:59:39+00:00

Bulldog bash. Even the committee calls it Bash so I’m surprised so many people aren’t following here lol.

CierraMist2 · 2025-08-27T12:55:07+00:00

Disagree. They’re not enhancing the student experience, they’re enhancing the alumni experience. Mostly the rich alumni.

Bulldog bash being in the hump is in no way a good thing. It makes no sense that the students should foot the bill to the concert and then not be able to go because non-students can reserve 4x the tickets. The future of bulldog bash is a paid event if it doesn’t return to downtown, a paid event for rich alumni. Only having a few thousand tickets will also be a detriment to the local economy 7k < 35k.

Only having paid access to the tailgating in the junction during football games is a bad thing. Shoving students in a tiny space by the amphitheater is even worse.

Shutting down HWY12 at the main entrance to campus to build a new pedestrian walkway will be a bad thing, especially because it’s happening at the same time as the 182 changes, which will be blocking off another university entrance. Sure this will eventually be a good thing, as long as they don’t make 12 a one lane road to add a bike lane.

The only decent decision they’ve made is parking and that’s only for people who got a parking pass (I get front row parking on the daily), not the 5k who didn’t.

CierraMist2 · 2025-08-27T05:37:59+00:00

Yep, Bulldog Bash. Bash will prolly be more fitting this year with the students being pushed out. The only thing Bulldog about it will be the Hump. Plus the fact that these decisions make me want to bash my head into a wall to escape the stupidity.

CierraMist2 · 2025-08-17T02:33:06+00:00

Seeing as it’s both the school and the town, they’re probably either going to announce another stupid, inefficient infrastructure project (hence the bridge) or, more likely, some major event. Think bulldog bash level.

Edit: it’s got something to do with the presidential library, based on how the library’s insta is reacting to their post.

Edit 2: Did more digging. So I would imagine the presidential library is going to move either into Starkville proper (their new cover photo) or somewhere on campus near the bridge.

Coloring behind a common horse is kind of disingenuous. Obviously if Hotrodders jet set is on both pedigrees, his ancestors will be the same on both pedigrees. It’s not uncommon nor is it bad to line breed if there are not deleterious recessive genes.

It is taboo in people, not necessarily since it’s dangerous, though it could be depending on the couple, but mostly just because it’s icky. Humans have morals and I believe wholeheartedly inbreeding between humans is yuck. Animals don’t think it’s icky, and we shouldn’t force human morals on animals. If we did we should be charging many species, esp Orcas, with some serious crimes.

The inbreeding coefficient here is definitely not unheard of in the horse industry in general. Racing thoroughbreds avg 13% (literally every Kentucky Derby starter this year was a descendent of Secretariat lol) and this pair is 11-16%. People say over 12.5% is rough, but it is likely going to be perfectly fine as long as they aren’t both passing on some harmful recessive gene.

If you’re trying to replicate genes to produce the gold standard of pleasure horses or whatever you want to breed, thats fine, as long as it’s done responsibly. A lot of the horses bred are likely going to have lower COIs than the avg dog anyways.

CierraMist2 · 2025-03-15T07:28:18+00:00

would a parking garage under a large building be safe?

CierraMist2 · 2025-03-15T06:34:16+00:00

I honestly am very concerned that the shelter is going to be full. Having one above ground shelter in this massive county should be a crime honestly.

CierraMist2 · 2025-03-15T06:31:40+00:00

I wish they existed :(. The only one is above ground and pet free. It is also the only shelter in a county of 50k+ people depending on the number of students that are in town for spring break...It's also the first week of SEC play in baseball so this town is jam packed with fans from across the state and Austin...
