Now that could be a major problem , just read what u wrote. This could be Big trouble for the league.

This is mine.

I always use the same options. I set it up for what works for me. I watch my trials the same every time - hit left click to skip the field screen that scrolls by and then hit escape. The race starts and runs for a few seconds and then you see the result. I do it the same way every time so it is uniform results. I keep my best times and horses on record so I know what to aim for. Consistency in placing with my faster horses is what I value most.

Some very good investigating there Jalupen. I'm shocked, I didn't know the ck was this bad.

Hmm so I take it the smaller the window the faster the time which would mean full screen is the slowest??

Paul, this really needs Marks attention.

Also Paul I hope you do much better than me in the league if and when it starts!!

Happy to see you do well

The league is still a while away. The game has to come out of beta first, and then there needs to be at least two months after this before it can start.

In addition to this the changes Mark is planning for the league will require code changes in the online league site. I'm going to start rebuilding the site this week to a) get rid of the wordpress stuff and b) make it faster. I will keep the legacy data for the last 2 seasons ( i don't have the data for the seasons before this though). Hopefully will get it done in a week or two.

I Think the best thing to find your best is set same conditions for every trial and dont go mad on times
for example set every trial in windowed mode without using the filters and without skipping
if you do this for every trial you will find your most consistent if you change your conditions of running trials
every time results will be all over the place.

The way i am trialing i always find my best i never go with my quickest just the most consistant point scorer

Nothing has got any better since I've been away
I'm back to playing the game after the new year i hope its a bit better by then

For the 1st i have crossed my best at 2 distances

been working on milers for 6 weeks and mile 4 for about 4 weeks and have to say i was disapointed

Steve (Jalupen) you are clocking early 203s for 1m2f at ascot good G1 i am almost 2 secs behind you
clocking late 204s which in terms of gameplay is a million miles you can see my best attempts below

Oh i did break my PB for the mile but alot i mean alot of work has gone into them and it was a blimmin sprinter who broke record
and beat my best 5f time




its hard not to feel a little disheartened by how far back my best 1m2 horses compare
being 2 secs in the ck is 1000s of seasons of gameplay

my 1m2 splits 25.7 105.6 152.4 204.9
J's -1m2 splits 25.8 105.8 150.3 203.0

new PB 1m4 time

I wouldn't be too disheartened mate I think ck is a mess my sprinters (depending on how I set up)can run 58secs-sub 56 I really don't know where I stand as there is no outstanding performer little bit frustrating really

Plus u can only bred with what u have, times only matter to people in jail.

I'm kind of dropping my flat team because I'm spending my time/having fun breeding jump horses, in the last month I've only spent 4 days on my flat team and that wont cut the mustard so I'm scaling back my team to just having some 2yo's and perhaps a few dirt horses. I'm having fun breeding jump horses but it's takes a lot of time to doing it.

Typical was about to quit the milers and i break my PB twice

Bred 150 Horses to take 0.001 off pb

That's good to know, I would hate for there to be no more improvements. In The last SO we were still improving after the last season.

Moved on from the milers found a st leger beauty took well over 1 sec off my best time
and incredibly consistent in ck
