A Few Updates

Post by The Steward »

Hello all,

Just a few quick short updates, which may or may not be mentioned in other posts:

1. Auction Naming - you still have to pick a name at the start of creating your auction, but before posting it you can edit the name at the end
2. Horse Alerts - Tired of those depressing horse alert messages piling up in your inbox? Turn them off via the Settings page.
3. Nominations are now entirely automatic, from turning on and off to adding themselves to the calendar. It's one of the best days of my life, I think! Because of this, they now run Sunday - Sunday instead of Friday - Friday.

I think I changed this a little. It is now Monday through Sunday.

Even More Updates

On the search page, under the Date area, we added "Today", which are the upcoming, unrun races for today (because as soon as races post, it becomes tomorrow, so at 1p Pacific when Tuesday results run, the SIM thinks it's Wednesday, so Wed races will show). I don't know about you guys, but I will use this EVERY DAY.

Interesting to see that horses from a more distant past still have their records up there.
Satelite, Conduit, The Scarlet Nite, Symbol, Clearly Best...are a few I spotted, there might be some more there, but I'm not familiar with all the names.

Sim horses in general are a lot faster now, but those records are still up...the owers/breeders of the 'old timers' have to be proud that they had such awesome horses like those.

Surprised to find that my old War horse Scary Cat holds the race record at both 550y and 650y. I guess he truly is a freak.
