Competition Scarcity

[Kainiz]

If anyone else wants one too please quote me so I can see it.

Hey! I can host up to 9 level 5 comps at the moment, so I can cover the level 5s and work towards 10s.

I would happily take that. I know a couple of other people who would too. There are only 4 or so recurring dressage comps open to trained dressage horses currently; I've been spamming them for my own purposes but I would be happy to just make a bunch of recurring ones so there's 10 open, and then use the rest for a less popular discipline- there are 0 level 10 Driven Dressage comps open currently so I'd probably go with that as a secondary one.

I have given you the upgrade. If anyone else wants one too please quote me so I can see it.

Could I please have this too? I can host up to 7 level 7 comps right now

Yes, both of you have been added to the program. Happy competition making!

Thank you very much, I will create some daily comps right now

Thank you, Tom!

For anyone planning to do this:
The disciplines that could use daily recurring comps for trained horses are as follows: (as of 8/29)
Barrel Racing (0)
Cross Country (3) has one each in level 5, 6 and 10
Cutting (2) has one at level 6 and level 10
Inhand Jumping (0)
Log Pull (4) has two at level 6, one at level 5 and 10
Marathon Driving (1) one at level 6
Obstacle Driving (4) two at level 5, one at 6 and 10
Reining (1) one at level 10
Western Pleasure (3) three at level 10

I'm only looking at level 5 and above competitions. Daily recurring comps at level 5+ would be the most helpful.

I've covered Western Pleasure, Level 5 (5 comps) and Reining, Level 5 (1 for now, but will re-shuffle later to make it 3)

I'm also editing this into my initial message.

I created 7 daily level 8 in hand jumping comps

Okay, so in hand and western pleasure will be taken off the list! Thanks guys!

UPDATE:
Tom is graciously offering single month account upgrades for people willing to use them to set up recurring competitions, as a temporary fix until the competition update comes out.

One of the things I've noticed the most since the changes is now that it seems auto comps stop auto-running after premium expires, there are way fewer competitions open per discipline. Which makes sense, because it takes time for those of us with non-premium accounts to set them up, but it does negatively impact the entire game population, especially when there's only 3-4 comps available to trained horses of a given discipline. Also gives us less opportunities to test our horses, unless we force run comps.

Here's a few suggestions to get around this:
-Mass comp creation. Be able to make more than 1 comp at the same time, as duplicates of eachother.
-Saving comp preferences. Could be tied to its own skill- increasing the number of different saved preferences- or have paid upgrades.
-Notification in "my events" when single-instance comps run, so you are more incentivized to check that section of the game; also an option viewing your past created comp results to create a copy of the same competition.

Would also be good to have maybe 5 competitions each run by the game in each discipline at levels 1, 5 and 10, or 1 at each level, with daily or every other day recurrence, so that even when there aren't player comps available, we'll still have something to enter our horses into.

Hello!

I can do level 7 comps, and 3 at the same time. But I'm working in both level and how many comps I can run at the same time and I would love to do this because I also need Cross Country and Hunter conpetitions (in s little time) for my Faeroes so I would love to run more comps!
edit I'm running a level 7 cross country competition right now!
EDIT: I'm studying for level 8 conpetitions!

Right now I'm running two level 7 cross Country comps. I can do level 7 and 3 at a time, and I'm studying for level 8. What comps do I run now?

Thankyou,
