Cypress Endurance Relay: OPEN
Post by Cypress Creek Elites »
Hi everyone! It's been a bit since I last attempted to host a competition, but here goes.
The Idea:
This will be a 4-horse relay. There will be 4 endurance competitions set up. Each team member will submit 1 horse to their leg of the race. Each participant may run 2 horses, either on the same team or separate teams- THIS INCLUDES SIDE ACCOUNTS.
Team placings will be calculated SOLELY based on time, and not on the condition subset of endurance scores. However, the worst 20% of teams (condition wise) will receive a small penalty.
The Timeline:
I may push this out if I don't have enough entries. At the very least I need 5 teams to run- this means a minimum of 10 player signups.
As of posting this, the signup deadline will be Feb 1. After this, all signed-up players will be pinged when the comps are set up- I will attempt to get this done by Feb 8.
The Prizes:
Of course, there will be prizes awarded to the top performing teams, on top of earnings from the races.
First place will get $10 million, split between team members. They will also get a silly little trophy.
Second place will get $5 million, split between team members.
Third place will get $2 million, split between team members.
The slowest team will get $100K per player, and a silly little badge.
The team with the least condition penalties will get $250K per player, and a silly little badge.
The team with the most consistent speed will get $175K per player, and a silly little badge.

Do NOT quote this post. PLEASE. I am begging you.
Teams will be defined by colors. You MUST tack up your horse in at least one item of the team color. This is for my personal enjoyment. Brown, black, grey and white will not be options.Do NOT quote this post. PLEASE. I am begging you.

Cypress Endurance Relay: Announcements/FAQ
Post by Cypress Creek Elites »
Announcements:
Jan 3rd, 2024... first attempt at organizing those already signed up into teams. No teams completed as of yet.
FAQ:
1] are you randomly pairing up 2 players as a team identified with the same color that you choose? Making a team of 4 horses/2 players, or is a team only the same player but can be horses from 2 different acct.?
A: ideally, I will have 4 unique players on each team. If it's more convenient to place both of one player's horses on one team, or I don't have enough entries to reasonably split up the horses, I may put both of one player's horses on the same team. maximum 2 horses entered per person.
2] do both horses have to be kept on the same acct.? meaning only one horse per player can enter in each of the 4 comps?
A: each horse is only eligible for one comp, because it's a relay- the other legs of the race will be taken by other horses. the horses may be kept on any accounts the player running them owns, either together or separately.

If you don't currently have a horse, put "add later" if you have the resources to get one yourself. If you need another player to give/sell you an endurance prospect, put "iso".Code: Select all

I would love to enter your contest!
But I may be a little dense, because I need a little clarification. I understand each team is identified by one color and each player puts up just 2 horses. I assume you, Cypress, will choose one of the 3 colors we list and apply to each team.
Please clarify what consists of a team.
1] are you randomly pairing up 2 players as a team identified with the same color that you choose? Making a team of 4 horses/2 players
or
2] is a team only the same player but can be horses from 2 different acct.? so 2 horses owned by the same player can enter the same comp for a team of 2
Or
3] do both horses have to be kept on the same acct.? meaning only one horse per player can enter in each of the 4 comps?
