5* Halter Events Idea

Middy [Platinum || 76 posts] on 4/19/2023 9:03 pm

Right now there is no real insentive to breed 5* horses. Yes they do better in shows slightly, but if a not so popular breed, the halter never runs.

Idea:
5* halter runs every night at roll over no matter the number of horses. Gives people a higher insentive to breed for 5*, and those that have them, might enter more halter if they know they will not stand forever in limbo. 

If the show does it 20, it just runs like normal. Once roll over comes around, if any horses are entered, it runs again. 

I personally hate breeding 5* crossbreeds as most of the events never run. They are just sitting there.

Support - but I also support halter shows running after a certain number of days anyway.. I have horses that have been sitting in halter shows for a long time and it's made me avoid showing halter altogether.

I fully support this! I WANT to show my horses in halter shows but when they never run, I get discouraged and frustrated that my horses have so many unrun shows or that I might not be able to enter anymore since they haven't run.

Yes, I love this idea. Like Reddrookk said it's a great idea to run them all after so many days, for all the stars. Some breeds just don't have a ton of halter entries even for the 3 and 4 stars.

 

I have 5 star foals that have zero shows run for them, and for some breeds it's not much better for the adults. I'd love it every 2 or 3 days for their scores, but honestly once a week would be way better than the never they're getting now. ๐Ÿ˜†

Support! Not just for 5* shows, I have 4* adults for a breed that has a decent number of horses in the game and the halter shows don't run.

I am pretty sure they were going to implement this forever ago so not sure what happened it got forgotten. Even on popular breeds I have had horses well into adult years that their shows still haven't run.

Maybe we could win some prizes with the halter shows? I know at some point we will have ribbons (all types) that can be put in your horse as normal tack in General Store, but like in RL, If we have prizes for halter shows?

In real life, there's predicates for horse conformation shows (gonna use Friesian studbook).

Star, Kroon and Model.

3 * stars halter shows = Horse wins star predicate and can have either a head ribbon, neck ribbon or a blanket that can be customized.

4* star = Kroon predicate with a option of getting two itens; either ribbon neck or/and head or/and blanket; also customized.

5* stars = Model predicate with a option of Gold, Silver, Bronze or diamond encrusted on your special tack. All of three options avaiable; ribbons (Head and neck) and a blanket. There's of course a money prize too

I don't know about the winning range, maybe If your horse wins 10 halter shows?

Fully support this.  I know it was talked about at one point as Maki stated, but not sure what happened.  This would be a fantastic addition to the game.

This is a very old post. All halter shows now run at midnight if there is at least one entry
