Post SO7 vs New SO6 League?
Was just wondering whether people thought we would get another league after this one from SO6, or if SO7 more likely to be the next one. I figured out exactly what I should be doing breeding wise very late before the uploads, so didn't have enough time to implement it properly. I now need to decide how hard to play, or save myself for the new game?

id say every chance there will be another so6 league season as so7 is a long way off
obviously this will be down to Gray and Leon to decide its them who put the time into it

I don't know when this will be done we will have a two week break over Christmas but I am sure we will have another league next year of SO6.

Gray


P.S also I think when this league is done New TOM will offer off season Racing that wont affect the league where trainers can use horses already uploaded or upload some new ones hoping to use more USA and Australian racecourses on the flat side in the off season with some Jumps.

Thanx for the info. This will give me incentive to keep playing and work on my NH team. And maybe have a full stable of 30 by week 6.

Now I just have to figure out why I need 30 horses and what is a novice and open and what is a bumper.

I thought Mark said the game wouldn't be out until the end of 2017 or 2018, so the earliest a league would be is middle of 2018 so why not get a third season in because we had 3 on the last game.

There will be more than likely be a few more seasons of starters orders 6. In addition the changes in Tom now allow for quicker turnovers of seasons and it is easier to fix code or add features

In real racing a novice is a horse that hasn't won in a previous season over that code i.e hurdles or fences. So in its first season hurdling it would be a novice and continue to be one for the rest of that season regardless of how many races it won, the following season it would no longer be a novice. However, if it failed to win it could continue in novices again the following season. Then when it starts chasing it becomes a novice again and the same rules apply.

A bumper is a national hunt flat race, usually run as the last race as they actually take the hurdles down and race between the wings even if the course has a flat course. Not sure why they do this but maybe its something to do with the distances and the turf. Once you have run over hurdles or fences you are no longer eligible to run in these. In years gone by you also had to put up an amateur or conditional jockey but these days the top jocks can ride in them

An open race is exactly what you would think, one that has no restrictions regarding entry.

Not sure if the rules are different for the online league though. Hope this helps.
