:new: Closed for Judging! As of now I will not accept any more entries, and extra images created after this time of 5:25pm will not count. When I do the RNG aspect, I will host a Livestream!
If you posted an extra image, but not a main entry, your extra image will count as your main entry.

WBS Winter Races RESULTS:star: 5 hours of judging and the results are up!
The only people who showed up for the RNG Aspect were :iconWinter-Pine-Farms: and :icon17mndrake:
If you see anything wrong with my math, comment right away!!

First of all I would like to thank EVERYONE who participated in this show! I am very happy with the turn out, and look forward to our next Winter Races show in December! (Announcements will be made for it in November, it will run in December) I really hope to see you guys come back at a second shot for winning, or at a shot to hold onto your title!
By my stables aging system (4 irl months = 1 in game year), December is an in-game year away from right now. So if you enter in December and win again, think of it as your horse won 2 years in a row!
Anyways, onto the reason you are all here... the results!
First things first, though, is the numbers. There are a list of numbers after each horse that represents their score so you can see where your strong and we


Due to popular demand, the show has been extended. Winter Races will open back up this December!

Running: Deadline is August 1st, 2015 August 31st, 2015
Event Type: Racing
Class/Classes: Flat Race, Cross Country, Skijoring, Barrel Racing, Beach Race
Restrictions: Horses entered into the Flat race must have at least 50% Thoroughbred blood. The other classes are open to any breed.

:star::star:The Rules:star::star:
:bulletgreen: Tracing, Leasing, and Collabs are permitted.
:bulletred: Do not re-use old art- the entry must have been made after the creation date of this show. This goes for training/arrival/extra images, too.
:bulletred: Backgrounds must be drawn and yours. You may re-use them for multiple classes.
:bulletred: Register as many horses as you want so long as they qualify, and you can get your entries in on time.
:bulletred: There is a breed restriction for the Flat Race, but any breed may enter the other classes.
:bulletred: There is no dress code for the rider.
:bulletred: You must register for the classes you want to enter.
:bulletred: I may enter my own horses as well.
:bulletred: Backgrounds may be re-used.

:star::star:The Classes:star::star:
:bulletblack: Flat Race (13/4th's mile, Snow on Dirt)
:pointr: Begins in the morning, after the sun has risen.
:pointr: Horse must have at least 50% Thoroughbred blood
:new: There has been some confusion with the background for this class in a few entries so far. To put it simply, if you draw the horses running to the left, you will see the outside rail of the track in the background with forestry behind the rail. If you draw your horses running to the right, you will have to draw the inside rail as well as the opposite side of the track in the background, with the forestry behind that. Also, Mountain Ranges are only visible behind the forestry of the first stretch and turn. There are no Mountains behind the second stretch and turn. Remember that we don't have grand stands, so you may see people standing around the rail at any part. If your background is incorrect, I will note your privately about it as a heads up that you will lose points towards your score if it is not fixed. If it is not fixed by judging day, I will deduct points from your score for having an incorrect background. This way, I give you time to fix it if needed, instead of just taking the points away without giving you time to fix it first. If I do not contact you, your background is fine. For examples of what the track looks like, see links below.
:pointr: The winning horse will get an additional RNG roll to determine how many lengths they won by! The RNG is set at 1-25, for a possible win of 1-25 lengths.

:bulletblack: Cross Country (4 miles)
:pointr: Takes place during the day
:pointr: All obsticals are natural or made of natural objects- fallen trees, boulders, streams, hills, logs tied together, etc
:pointr: All breeds allowed

:bulletblack: Skijoring (1 mile)
:pointr: Takes place during the day in a field of snow surrounded by forestry. The snow has been plowed into piles of various sizes across the course, but jumping them is optional.
:pointr: You may either have a rider on the horse (shown here), or no rider on the horse (shown here)
:pointr: All breeds allowed

:bulletblack: Barrel Racing
:pointr: Takes place in one of our outdoor arenas. The fenceline is brown wood, with three planks across each post.
:pointr: Barrels are purple with a black middle, shown here
:pointr: All breeds allowed

:bulletblack: Beach Race (2 miles)
:pointr: A casual race on the beach around sunset to end the day
:pointr: All breeds allowed

:star::star:Weather and Setting:star::star:
It is Winter on the Island. There was a snowfall the previous night, so expect fresh powder snow across the courses. The racetrack will not be plowed, so the snow will cover the dirt, the racing rail is black with the posts that go into the ground being purple. Beside the first stretch is forestry with mountain ranges in the background (shown here but without the building in the back) and around the first turn to the second stretch is more forestry (shown here  but the horses would be facing the other way). Our race track has a path that leads up towards the grounds in the direction of the loading gates. We do not have any grand stands to sit at, so spectators may stand by or drive up to the racing rail. Bring your own chairs if you would like. The cross country course will also be snowed over, with possible wildlife along the way, including Printer the squirrel (shown here , here), deer, mountain lions. The snow is covering the sand in the outdoor arena, and there may be snow on the fence. Behind the arena is a hill with the tops of trees poking over the rim (hill shown here). The snow will not reach the sand on the beach, but of course, it will be quite chilly out.
