Horse Rewards ???

How can it be that we are getting an Asian cowshed decoration for the Horse Racing in Platinum level? We get one of those very 5 weeks from the Asian weekly event.  This was very disappointing.

    Even in the Japanese event. They did say in the official announcement (https://community.goodgamestudios.com/bigfarm/en/discussion/152046/update-apr-25th-japanese-golden-week) that there was going to be a choosable "Cherry blossom barn skin" as top prize, which I though it would also fit into the next horse season but either it was a misunderstanding or they didn't have time to implement it...

    Well it looks like this skin is a bit different in color, I am ok with this as long as I can get another one in the future decorating my farm is a big factor for me in playing.

    The variations in it are extremely slight.  Some flags hang on it.

    In the Golden Week, it was a choice, but there were other choices.

    @gavinfarms (US1) In the weekly Asian event you get the "Asian Cowshed" skin, this horse season one is the "Cherry Blossom Cowshed" skin, they are 2 different sets, but the differences are slight, the most noticeable one being that the Cherry Blossom skins have a brown roof and the Asian ones are green.

    @mia111 (GB1) The announcement for the GW event does indeed say "Cherry Blosson Barn" skin, but I see we had no image for it & there was some confusion in translations for the horse season on some servers where the cowshed is translated as "Cherry Blossom Barn" so I am not totally sure if the GW event had a cowshed or a barn skin, I will try to find out.



    EDIT:It would appear that the skin for the GW event was the Asian cowshed & not the Cherry Blossom barn as per the OA.

    I am not arguing that it was or was not announced properly.  I am noting that it is not a very original skin.  We are simply used to getting something a little more special from the horse seasons.
  • So I have a question about horse racing. I reached the platinum, level in the most recent horse racing season. Got the cash for reaching the level. When the season ended I only got the prizes for gold level.  While I am happy to get the gold I was a little disappointed to not get the platinum prizes. Am I missing something about how the season works?

    Did you finish up in the Platinum level, or slide down back into Gold?  Where you finish is what's counted, even if you reached a higher level during the tournament.

    Nope finished in Platinum. I did not think it possible to slide back down a level  When looked at it said platinum prior to gave season-ending this morning. When the season ended it said Gold level that is why I am confused.
    Always have been happy with the prizes, so I am happy to get the gold  but I know next time I will screen shot where I m when it ends

    Check your Notice Board. You'll get a notification there about where you placed in the tournament.





    It is entirely possible to get knocked down from Platinum to Gold in the last few minutes of the tournament, especially if you're right on the edge between Gold I and Platinum V.
  • Ok,  I will leave it at that. I was not on even close to being back to gold. There was only about an hr left so there that would have to be an awful lot of races to lose in the last hr before the season ended, So, I will have to give them the benefit of the doubt on this one. I thank you all for responding. Next time will screen capture the end of the season. Thanks, peeps   <3

    In Platinum, every time you lose a race you lose 4 points.  In Gold it's only 2 points.  That's why it's so hard to stay up in Platinum, you have to win at least 1 race for every race you lose (when challenged by another player). :)

    What Rank did the "Season Over" message in your Noticeboard say you ended the season in?
  •  Message board said I ended in gold. That is why I was a little surprised as I had recently received the 4k in horseshoes which were the prize after the cash

    It should also show you each of your wins and losses during that last hour or two as seen in Southern's example.
  • @farmermim5000 (US1) If you can recall the approximate time/date that you received the 4000 horseshoes, you had at least 950 points at that time. To drop from there to the gold league (874 points), you would need at least 19 losses & 0 wins. If you look on your noticeboard & you have more than 19 losses since the time that you won the horseshoes, then it is possible for that to happen. Assuming that you also had several wins during that time, you would expect to see more than 19 losses shown.
