I'm having the same problem. I'm glad it seems to have stopped for some of the players but mine are still shipping. Maybe there was a horse coup lol. :)

Well, back awake. Same as it was when I went to bed, so at least the money wheel isn't going backwards like a jackpot in Vegas (in reverse!) I am just making a few assumptions here (I have my own business web-site), but I would guess there is a "clock turn back" capability with the game, so after they figure out what happened so it doesn't happen again, I'll guess they might try to turn back the clock to 11:59 PM Pacific last night, which would undo all the shipping. I know I'm not moving anything or breeding anything or even petting a horse until I get an all clear. Got a Saratoge handicapping expo today, maybe I'll come back from that and find all is back to where it was.

Cathie's report that her horses are still moving is scary: Cathie can you confirm?

well, cant say I'm out quite as much money as everyone else, but I do have horses going everywhere, a couple are still shipping, long distances. I don't think ALL of mine shipped, I still have some at farms and I don't see a pattern on that. Some broodmares shipped, some more than once. I dunno whats going on, but its kinda wild! :wink:

Checking random horses like Fiddle Dee Dee and Tremendous, it looks like they all shipped to the first place noted on the "past performance" tab. Most of mine race in North America, so that pattern was obvious and the Euro/So. Am shippers were easy to spot. Thankfully it stopped. (Pinto in Animal House: "remain calm, all is well....")
...the still shipping I think implies they are in transit and NOT still randomly being shipped.

And on a personal note: my "overnight" annoyance in real life: kitchen sink drain pipe is broken behind the wall which is destroying the foundation - oh the joy.

Holy cow, I logged in with 68k less then I did when I went to bed. I had a dream this happened too O___O that I lost a lot of money overnight for a weird reason. CREEPY!

But yes, every single horse of mine shipped. Battlenote must be telling me that he is tired of breeding cus hes currently in flight to California's Fair Weather park.

And poor Staris still has 19hrs left as she flies from Japan to Florida. Same with Presidential who is going from Barbados to Japan.

Im super cranky that Tribune is flying to Canada since she had JUST got to France :( I hope they go back free of charge haha.

It appears to cost approximately $130k to ship most of my stable. The broodies, stallions, pensioners and active racers have certainly racked up the frequent flier miles, lol.

I think I'll wait until this calms down to ship or breed anyone. I still have several that are 20+ hours out from their destination. Actually one poor mare (Grey Areas) has shipped from Oklahoma Park to Hipo Argentino to Columbia to New Zealand. Talk about jet lag!

Oh yea, my horses are all over the place.

My horses have shipped all over the place too.

Ie: My steeplechasers are at Price is Right, & also Trial Park (& I havent been able to race at Trial park since about March 2008).

:shock:

Edit: well, lol at least one of my favorite horses, What a Night wasn't retired (he is a 9yo chaser who doesnt want the 9yo mandatory retirement!)
