Opinions needed!
Post by Farant »
I may start something like holy war, but I should do that.
Okay, I'm puzzled with competitions.Once again.
I checked top and saw this horse. http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/286386 Literally any horse from top 10 will do.
You should look at his competition record in Dressage. You will see dozens of competitions like Merula http://www.horseworldonline.net/competi ... edition=21 and Kermes Karpes http://www.horseworldonline.net/competi ... edition=24.
I can't understand something about it. This horse almost never competed against another player's horse, but it's still a champion. More than a champion, it's on the top of the game with great amount of points. Can it be considered as a fair game?
I want to hear your opinion.

I have seen this happening for a long time, but recently I have not entered competitions as often as before so I don't know if it is still a common practise or not. But I agree that it is not looking like fair game and I would like to see a maximum amount of entries per player in every discipline.
Since there is not limit on most of the disciplines you could basically give a horse infinite amount of points in no time if you create shows and enter all your horses in them to make them run immediately. The horse you want the points for will win every time and with more entries the amount of points the winning horse gets becomes even higher. Your own player-points will also be great which can make you climb to the top on the rankings without ever competing against other players.

Basically I dumped all of my horses into one show because I wanted my breeding stallions to be SMGCh. Yes, they rarely competed against other horses, but that was mostly because of the cost of entry and the fact that no other horses could have possibly beaten them (at the time, now Bita has some monster dressage ponies).

So, are you advocating for a cap on the number of horses that a player can enter per competition (for those events where you can enter more than one horse)?
