I feel like this would cause there to be MORE drama.

The award should be for those who don’t take part in Break drama 🤪
Didn't Em say she was taking your forum membership away like 5 days ago---during break?!?
I’m not saying *I* would get one, I’m just saying people might be on their best behaviour 😉

Two small things. On entries and results page, would be cool to see a total of entries for a day and region like it shows up for results. You can just look and see you have 53 horses entered for week 1 day 1.

When you click to bid on a horse in auction, be neat if it said somewhere “You are high bidder” or “such and such is high bidder “ was presented to read

All you need to do is look at how many high bids you have before you bid. If it goes up by one you're the high bidder.

If you look at who the high bidder is before you bid, if you're not the high bidder it will be the same person.

If you get sent a link, or come across it any other way through research and random clicking, For a horse at auction or alternatively search for horses at auction using the sales page. Then you have to open more pages and find it in the auction

I mean it's just a make our lives easier thing. If it doesn't get implemented that's fine and if it does that's great.

Could there be an obvious indication when you have text typed in the quick filter and it's active? I pretty regularly forget I have it filtered and then realize I've missed a bunch of horses later on. It sticks around when you leave the page and come back which is nice but I always forget it's there. Maybe highlight the filter box in a color when there's text in it, as an idiot alert.

Also, side note, for me the column widths get messed up when the quick filter is active and you reload the page.

Money drain - pay to prevent a horse in your graveyard from having their name released to anyone but yourself. I hate seeing some of my broodmares lose their names, Legacy's End's is an example. I bought the second Legacy's End just in case I could ever give the name back lmao

Love the new nonclaier and nonbarrier trial horse types. Was wondering if we could also get a "claimer" horse type that would default to only showing claimer races.

You can give the name back - I've done that a few times by using the contact us button. That said, I like the money drain idea.

I also thought of this, but it wouldn’t work. The default needs to be able to see all races, since the modification is only for SIMperior members. So if the default was no claiming races non-SIMperior members wouldn’t be able to enter claimers.

It'd work, it's just a quick filter system for SIMperior members. Non-SIMperior members would see the races as they see it now which would be like if a horse has no horse type set so it'd show everything. Love the idea

Oh my god, yes please, I'd love an idiot alert for this :lol: I do this way too often, no matter how many times I still forget :roll: I'm not a huge fan of the filter staying filled, but I see it's purpose. I just tend to use it for quick things like finding a specific horse so I don't need it to stay filled in

Maybe "default" wasn't the right word. But if simperior members can set horses so that only nonclaiming races show up for that horse, or only turf mile races while other people can see all the races for their horses I don't see why there would be a reason simperior members couldn't likewise set a horse so that only claiming races showed up for that horse. It would seem the mechanism is already in place it just requires the coding of "claimer" as a horse type.
