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
Winter Lease Drawing Event It's time to put out feelers for potential winter leases! This lease will last November Week One through March Week Five. Note many horses may require a month off for a good rest at the end or beginning of the year, so this lease is one month longer than our summer lease.
Figure out which horses you want to lease out, and PM them to me only, do not post in this thread. Based on the summer lease, I now request that if you put in more than three horses, you MUST accept taking one lease in. This will help prevent only two or three members being dumped on. Next to each lease, put down what the reward is for the lease term. Such as a BR to that horse, or another horse, or a rare item perhaps (you must own the item if you want to give it, you can't make it up out of the air).
If you wish to take on one or more leases, PM me the age and general preferences of what you would be willing to take on. For example: 2 juveniles, one dirt router and one turf sprinter. If there are any other conditions, such as gender or grade, please list them there. The more specific you are the more difficult it will be to place, so be as flexible as you can.
I will randomize and do a full surprise list of leases before November Week One begins to give a little time to get pages set up.
I cannot guarantee that every horse put up for lease will find a home, but I will put up leftovers if there are any for anyone to snag if they have interest. Please let me know if you have any conditions regarding the lease event, such as if your horses don't get randomly placed you cannot take leases in. I do my best to find homes for all but there are no guarantees.
New Rule: If you do not have the pages up for your leases by closing of Nov. W1 and actively race the horses throughout the lease period (minimum of 7 times during the event) you are subject to losing your leases and the rewards.
This was a really tricky one, most entered were 3YO and there was a larger request for older horses. There are lots of pretty ponies who could use a home for a while! Please consider one if you have room :3 Anyone may put in a request to lease the untaken horses.
CRUISEY Trying To Impress - Although this lady is stretched router, she is winning at 8F dirt, so I think she'll fit in with you ^.^ She comes with a fancy BR.
HARRY Dark Divine should fit with you. He comes with a BR OR 1 CFK + 2 surface supremes. Diminutive Miss - BR
KENREN Bejeweled comes with a BR I've raced her a bit light so she shouldn't need a break.
RIPLEY No one matched your preferences this round, maybe someone below will strike your interest
