Club Limit Update is out - How did it impact you? What clubs need help?
  • Thank you so much to everyone who provided feedback on this. We have had a few days and the flow of comments has really calmed down.

    Bluegrass was strongly in favor of adding this in right now and at a limit of 3 per account. Forest was mostly neutral and more concerned with how associated accounts would be handled. Mesa leaned toward waiting and having 5 per account.


    Combining the feedback of all servers I have landed on the following:
    -This will be implemented right now. A lot of players are very intent about this, much more so than the people who suggested waiting. I personally think it sets us up for more informed conversations about the June update as well.
    -I will add to the club rules a request for players to limit themselves to 2 accounts per club. It is easy enough if you have more than 2 accounts to just focus/keep entries on the different accounts to different clubs. I have done this with my test accounts in the past and it works well.
    -We will be starting with a limit of 5 placings per account per category. This is to help small servers like mesa run, prevent altering the payout on the limited-era clubs, and give more transition time to help smaller clubs/servers adjust.
    -I have also removed any fantasy restrictions from the size clubs.

    I am going to roll out the limit of 5 placings per club. I expect pretty rapidly to be making tweaks to help small clubs run, so don't panic if you see clubs with not enough horses. We have over three weeks to massage things and make sure as many can run as possible.

    For example, I can see right away that the Miniature club needs to change to include a wider size range.


    How did this change impact your LB standings?

    Do you see any clubs that are going to need some extra help?

  • Very exciting! I haven’t really looked yet to see any negative impact, but already see positive. I will reorganize and see if I can’t add to the clubs with less than 25. Am I correct in thinking all horses are still in the club, just the top 5 in each are showing, correct?

    And poor Miniatures! This little club - literally!- ! :D is on life support!
  • Completely correct. I posted this on the other thread.

    It may help some people to think of it like this: You can have an unlimited number of horses entered in a real life breed registery, but you can only nominate a limited number of horses you own for horse of the year. The game is doing the same thing, picking your best horses and submitting them for lb contention. Everything is just handled automatically.

  • There is a special herd helper coming out later in the month that has the height regulator gene, so that should help the miniatures club if my thinking is correct?

  • I really appreciate the bumped GMT rewards for being at the top of the board. As a newer (ish) and smaller player this will help me out significantly with my goals (if I manage to get to the top of the boards again).

    I really think this will soften the blow for everyone tbh.

  • Gmt rewards have not changed. Not sure what you mean?

  • Something might be off with how the script is running on backwards breeder foals.

    The backwards breeder foals yesterday I had one foal just barely peeking into the top 25 with AmberHaven's bunch. Today, I see AmberHaven's 5 best, and my best sitting at #6, but I should have at least 4 more foals showing that would qualify and bring it up to 10.

    At the very least regular bred foals from other players should be showing up to fill the board to 25, even if they are like 7.0 PTs or something.

  • Seems like there were no immediate negative impacts from this change.


    The backward club is still on my list, as is monitoring the miniature club. I have not heard a peep about any other clubs needing help but I am here if any need assistance.

  • It is now the 18th and it looks like there are a bunch of clubs that are short. It is up to the membership to figure out how to fill these clubs and to ask for help if help is needed.

    For example, I have no doubt there are plenty of draft foals to fill the draft PT board. People just need to enter them. You will need to work together to make sure the clubs you care about can run. I have no doubt that in a few seasons, once programs adapt these will fill easily but I just want to make sure people are aware that the onus is on them to get clubs filled. (or ask for help after they have attempted to get the club filled by working with other players and can't find enough breeders)

    The clubs I see currently in jeopardy are:
    Gulastra Plume
    Mushroom
    Snowflake App
    Chinchilla
    Chocolate
    Onyx
    Phantom
    Rainbow Riot 1
    Rainbow Riot 2
    Draft
    Miniature

  • I am still willing to help but we are rapidly running out of time. Requests for help need to be in asap or it will be too late.


    Looks like Chocolate, Miniature, Chinchilla, and Onyx are still in danger of not running.

    Please work together to fill these clubs if you want them to run. :)

  • I haven’t actually done my main slot of breeding yet for the season, maybe people are waiting till the last minute after Christmas to fill up their desired clubs. I don’t really pay much mind to any of those clubs personally as I don’t have the horses to match them so I could be wrong, but I’m pushing it fine this season as I messed my pasture bonus up and think I have 1 day before the season closes to breed my mares lol.
  • I’ll be doing some breeding for miniature and chocolate. Just having to find the time to sit down and do it.

  • I got 2 mini studs on the board, was gonna get a 3rd one on the board but unfortunately he is not gmtable and missed the height cut off by .1. Yes really. :)) Why is this cutting off all my post? I had a whole bunch of things written but this mysteriously disappeared…
