I think I need a coach.
  • I was in this game for a while, and still have problems understanding its mechanics. If someone could volunteer to coach me while I get the graps of them I would be very grateful.
  • I'll try giving you a hand. If you can give me your player ID number and some idea of what you'd like to know first, I'll take a look at your stable and we'll go from there.

  • Of course :)
    My member id is 258 , and I'm having problems decidin when to enter horses into shows, and when to let them rest. All of them had their last show yesterday.
  • You can pretty much show them all, all the time. You make money in this game by racking up points. The more points you hold the more money you make. So unless a horse is coming in dead last every time it is worth it to enter them in shows.
  • You mean I should enter them every day?
  • Actually, you can enter them twice a week.

    However, looking at your stable I see that you went a long time without playing much at all, and most of your horses have gone on aging without training, so they have leveled out at a very low point (meaning that training them isn't going to do much good). and they aren't going to do you much good.

    It looks like you are culling your older horses as I'm working on this reply. That's good.

    Start with fresh, young horses, train them every week on Sunday and show them twice each week, however they place.

    I have put these two older show horses who have a fair number of points up on buddy sale for you. They will give an instant boost to your total points (and your weekly showing bonus) and should be able to go on showing profitably for a while.

    She's been near the top of the Roan Breeders Club leaderboard for points earned by foundation horses for the last two game years. She should do well for you.

    Dawn Master http://hj2.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=45692
    She's showing in the middle of most of her classes, but she has the highest total points of any of my show horses, so she also should do well for you.

    Just click on their links and you will be able to purchase them for a bargain price.

    If you'd like to PM me with your questions, I'd be glad to carry on coaching you that way, or we can continue in the open forum if you'd like.

  • PM coaching sounds good. Thank you for the horses, I will take good care of them.
    How do I send private messages?
  • If you click on my name in any forum post it shows up on, you will find, on the left of the page, "Send SandyCreek Farm a message." This will set up a one-on-one dialog, like emailing back and forth. When you do this, the Inbox title in the dark blue bar near the top of the forum pages will let me know that there is something waiting, and when I send one back to you, you'll see the same thing. Click on the notice of the message in the first screen that pops up and you'll be able to see the whole thing.

    I'm glad you like the horses. They have done very well for me, and I'll miss them, but I know that they will be a big boost to your stable as you get restarted playing the game.

  • Oh, that is right. I was searching the private messaging feature in the game itself, instead of in the forum.
