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
To enter horses in this sale, you'll post the form in this thread with your entries, and they will be deleted as they are added to the catalog. Information may be edited (including outs) by contacting a staff member after the horse is added to the catalog up until the sale is posted. You are responsible for entering your horses here, including reclaims that you want sold. Even if you've said you want them sold in a reclaim thread, it is your responsibility to put the entry in here. Staff will not do it for you. Any registry horses will be entered by staff. Some reminders for this sale, especially if you missed the Discord announcement:
1. Y19 weanlings may not be entered in this sale. 2. Check out the entry rules again regarding eligible horses (regarding creates, etc) here 3. This sale is going to run semi-old-GHF style - we're going to have a catalog and write-ups, but horses will have a fixed sales price set by the seller. Anyone interested in the horses will then simply state 'I would love to be considered for X, Y, and Z' and then the seller for specific horses will look at those who are interested and make a decision on the horse. There will likely be a time window after the sale is posted before sellers can make a sale official, so everyone has time to express interest. 4. Because item number 3, there will be no 12 horse limit, buyer limit, etc. for this sale because sellers are choosing where their horse goes (or if it goes at all - they are not required to make a sale!). 5. The sale will run May Wk 1!
Form
Horse Name: Self-explanatory Horse Page: Most updated page, with results up-to-date Sold As: Yearling, HORA, Breeding Prospect, Breeding Horse, HORA/Breeding Prospect combo, etc. We'll fix this is anything looks wrong! The racer/breeder for older horses that haven't had foals yet are the most important. In Foal: If broodmare or broodmare prospect, are they in foal? To who? If mare is in foal, can the foal be sold? If the answer is no, the foal must be kept for at least half of its 2yo season Sale Price: This is a fixed price the horse will sell for if sold. It can be changed up until the sale is posted. Anything else? Are there specific reserves that the horse is being sold with, or any other information that should be included?
