Super Race Weirdness?

Post by The Steward »

Thanks to Steve Leavitt, who pointed out this bit of weirdness:

https://www.simhorseracing.com/race.php?RaceID=1510075

Post positions were generated 24 hours before the race, like usual. But horse #3 is gone.

Here are the horses who WERE entered into the race in the weeks leading up, and were scratched:
Here are horses that were entered in the race and were scratched:
Entered 'Hugo Crab' into race 1510075
Entered 'Always Away' into race 1510075
Entered 'Wandering Creek' into race 1510075
Entered 'Rockyruby Story' into race 1510075

Here are the reasons horses MIGHT get scratched:
Player manually
24 hours before the race because the horse’s location or it’s NW status has changed
Horse transfers to another player (which isn’t supposed to be possible when entered)
A horse is put into an auction
Shipped to greener pastures
Turned into a steeplechaser
Injuried
Retired

The Admin can't figure out how a horse was scratched AFTER post positions/race locked.
I can't figure it out.
We have never seen this before.

REWARD for the person who figures it out!!

Always Away and Rockyruby Story were double entered for 7.3?

Edit: and Hugo Crab wasn’t at the track. So your trouble must be Wandering Creek, not sure why they aren’t in the race. Cause she is at the track and everything

Oh yeah! The fee is taken out as the post positions are picked now! That’s new for the year so might just be a little bug! Smart cookie

Do you have enough examples to make comparisons?
These races also run with an empty gate:

Not sure if it would make any difference, but Always Away was manually scratched from the race
