Hall Of Fame Voting Guide
I put this together for myself to vote on the human category, and thought others may find it useful. If you're one of the trainers on here and notice I made an error, please post a correction!

Holy smokes Kris Bobby's stakes win percentage is intense.

Re: Hall Of Fame Voting Guide
I've kind of just resolved myself to the fact that I will never make it in. My stats are awesome considering I only own around 100-155 horses at any given time total. I'm fine with it. People with small stables can't get traction in these type of things and it's ok! Congratulations to whomever gets in.

Re: Hall Of Fame Voting Guide
I assume most long time players will eventually make it in. That's kind of the point in letting in 1-2 people per year. All the people are deserving if you've been hacking away at a game since 2007 etc.

Re: Hall Of Fame Voting Guide
I also have an amazing assistant that has had full run of my barn for a good while now. It probably wouldn't be exactly kosher. Just being honest and full disclosure. I can't take much credit for the success of my stable. I did have a good run once for a little while, then I realized how bad I really am at running my horses and turned that part over to better hands.

Re: Hall Of Fame Voting Guide
That will help with voting.
Also...what would also help is a category guide for the horses.
I have no clue to what category I'm suppose to be voting for. All the tags just read 'Hall of Fame'.
Are they all just for racing records...or are some of them for ..say..racing filly as opposed to broodmare...where one I would be looking at the race record and the other her offspring.
And for those who figured it out...don't jump me to hard for not doing so....
I haven't had a lot of time or ambition to dig into it and try to figure it out - my back pain has really flared up, so I've been taking a 1/2 of a hydro during the day...which I normally don't do, as it makes my concentration rather lax, and I've been worried about Jaya, and not sleeping much at night due to the back pain and my stress over her.

Re: Hall Of Fame Voting Guide
Well, I'm just happy that my career is good enough now that I could even be on the ballot for inclusion in the Hall of Fame (even if I'm gonna get my booty kicked this year, RIP first ballot). Even like just a year or two ago in real life there would have been absolutely zero case to include me on the ballot, so this just shows how much my stable has progressed in the last several sim years compared to, say, the first 25 sim years I was on the game
Seriously, my lifetime win % is only 21 but for the last 10 sim years or so I'm usually either at or above 30% per year, even reaching 40% last year! That would've been unthinkable for a long time

Re: Hall Of Fame Voting Guide
Oh so YOU guys are hogging all the G1 wins lol
Also curious how you calculated their stakes win %? Did you go through and find how many stakes they had entered?

Only the truly great ones make it into the Hall of Fame on their first ballot.
