Races close on Mondays at 9PM EST! Our Next Sale Begins: January Y22.
02/05/23 We're almost ready to kick off the New Year here at Final Furlong! The New Years Sale is still OPEN for bids - lots of ponies needing homes! As well, we're hoping to close January Week One races by MONDAY, FEBRUARY 6. However, if we need to extend closing date so more people can get entered, just let us know in the Discord. In addition to getting your pages ready, don't forget to use your bonus points if you'd like!
01/29/23 Congratulations to KENREN for winning the Y21 Breeders' Cup Betting Contest! You've won a breeding reserve to FIFTY DREAMS (Firestone Stud) and 2x 2 furlong extensions + 5 bonus horse points! Lolly finished 2nd, and Cruisey finished 3rd.
12/08/22 The Breeder's Cup Betting Contest will make a return for Y21!!! It'll be a little bit different because of the new points system, but get ready for some end of year fun 😄
11/21/22 Entries for the New Year Sale are now open! We know it seems a bit early, but with life things we're going to need time to make sure things are right lol. Please follow the link here: https://final-furlong.proboards.com/thread/2304/y22-new-year-sale
08/20/22 Judging has been the basis for issues for a long time - taking too long, drama regarding results, bias, etc. Kenren has attempted to put a points system together that keeps the spirit of our system while streamlining and standardizing the process. It's a lot to take in, but once you get in the swing of it, preparing pages with these points takes way less time than doing a layout change lol! If you have any questions, please post them in the judging-help channel on Discord for now. If anyone needs help with anything, please let an admin know! We would like to give everyone one week to get things settled, and then we would like to run July Wk 2 using this system closing 8/27/22 (or earlier if everyone is ready). If it works out, we would like to run two game weeks per RL week to get things moving! Thank you all so much for being her!e
07/27/22 To start July off fresh, we've been playing around with a new theme for Final Furlong! Make sure to check out 'Sonorous' under your profile ❤️ Feel free to use whatever theme works best for yourself. We can't wait to get back to racing!
07/21/22 it's official! We're back! It looks like June Wk 4 was almost fully judged, so make sure you get that updated if you hadn't! We will plan to close the next week (July Wk 1) on Thursday, August 4th. This close day may change, but it's not a bad place to start! For now we'll be doing one game week per RL week to get back into things. Please remember that starting the second half of the year, 3yos can compete against older horses without automatic lower placements.
As an aside, because this is fairly sudden after a whole year, we will not be allowing reclaims on horses for members not currently active for a few months. We will readdress this going forward if needed. Thank you all for understanding!
07/08/22 GO answer the poll ❤️ https://final-furlong.proboards.com/thread/2232/ff-restart-poll
Due to my ongoing illness I need to lease and/or sell stock. I had an ER visit today my blood work and things were normal but they noticed a few times I had an irregular heart beat, so I am on a monitor for the next two weeks. They were unable to ascertain exactly why I have such bad fatigue and weakness, I need some more appointments with my doctor and a cardiologist and stuff. So please, take what you can, I will do my very best to keep up with the ones I keep, and make arrangements probably with Harry/Free to keep some of my stars going but this is a bad necessity right now.
SALE/LEASE Right now I'm not doing any BR terms or anything I just need these guys sold.
Okay I've had my little freak out - I am going to put a hold on this for now. I have Harry set up to help me record results if needed, I've been able to keep entering tonight, so at least through the month of May I should be okay. I was able to see my test results online and they are perfect (literally like four pages of numbers, I was SO HAPPY to see my glucose was 103 and I'd just eaten like an hour before, big family history of diabetes so that's always a number I keep track of), so I don't think I'm on death's door here even though the world feels like it's crashing down -.- Basically on the monitors they caught my heart beating not in a steady rhythm a couple of times. The beat was always strong, but a couple times it was going .4 .4 .5 .4 .6 .4 .4 .4, that sort of thing, that's what they're checking up on. Super scary but not a lot I can do except wait the 2 weeks they want to record.
It wouldn't be a bad idea for you guys to keep a few of these ponies in mind that might fit in your roster if I decide I do need some help, but for now I think with Harry as my back up I will try to continue racing as normal. I purposely kept them all pretty much undercarders here so they wouldn't directly conflict with anybody's HOTY string. It's super strange how your body can be show results nearly 100% perfect and yet you feel sooooo horrible. I'm thinking maybe because I've spent 18-24 hrs every day in bed the last 3 weeks that it's just gotten me really weak, they've caught some stuff on my heart (palpitations and such) before and said I was okay, so calm is the name of the game right now, they told me just do daily life as normal as much as you can, so they can get the best results. Anyway-I shall keep you all updated as new info comes. Sorry for the novel.
*If anybody wants to pick up one of the horses on the sale list through here you can.
I've got Wired entered at GHF week one, otherwise their pages are up to date.
