To me, if someone is putting in the time, money and effort to train, house, feed and enter thousands of horses. They sure as hell earned all possible profit from showing
I honestly don't have time during the day, especially during school, I get up at 6 in the morning, to get ready, take care of animals, and leave by 7:20 from there I have school from 8-3:30, and after school, I have sports that run to 5:30 or 6. By the time I get home its 6/6:30, and I need to take a shower to have dinner between 6:30 and 7:00, so I can be done with that by 7:45, then I have homework, and I'm in all AP/Dual Enrolled classes. Then the day starts >.> I don't have time to enter shows late at night becuase I get up early but I get up early enough that to get up any earlier leaves me drained, mentally and physically >.>
Right now my biggest complaint is the easy enter show page does not show when horses are ready to show. The only way to do that is to count training bars and even then your horse can do poorly.
Irene, I totally understand about being a free accoutn from the aspect of showing. But the other benefits of a premium make it worthwhile for me. I enjoy doing the Federations . And ratings of course, the most obvious benefit
Honestly FSF at first I was skeptical of the show cap comment you made, but... I make palettes, and I doubt I'd have as many barns (and geldings to show) without the money I make from selling my palettes, which doesn't bode well for showing. Seeing how many geldings you had made moot by the cap also makes me think we need a cap increase.
Buckeye, I noticed that. My free account didn't have good placings at all with horses that I *know* should do well, at least on my prem account. It's discouraging.
FSF, the difference in profits between premium and free accounts is why I haven't upgraded yet, and don't plan on doing so until I start breeding. It doesn't seem worth the lost money.
As more players figure out what “ready to show” means, the competition has gotten stiffer, for sure. Also, the premium and free accounts being separated for shows made it harder in the placings.
For those reasons, I stopped using the barn manager to enter shows long ago. I think the barn manager is not the biggest problem with showing, currently. Probably an unpopular opinion, but based on having been showing in game for a very long time, and having been one of the top stables in showing.
My comments will probably be overlooked, but I made them anyway, as they are my opinion 😉😊
I mostly just do my own thing these days in game, for various reasons
I didn't notice a huge difference with the BM when I did my own test, but she had double the data because hand showing takes me forever. Her having double the entry count and still having about the same earnings per show is... not a good sign for her employment at my stable LOL
Yeah, BM has usually been hitting the bottle when she enters shows. I did a multi month long test of which was better: hand entering or the BM. While the overall winnings were the same, the over all profit was lower with the BM and the average placing was lower, too
