Not sure if this type of "issue" has been addresed here, so forgive me if I'm repeting something as I only visit forums occasionally and don't read every post carefully.
Here's the explanation:
I suppose the "odds" of winning / loosing is a general statistical function. Say 50 / 50 would mean, that if you had a looooooong string of contests between these two horses, like 1 milion, it would tend to be half a mil win, half a mil lost, as the chance is 1 win in 2 races. And that applies to both horses in exactly the same way. Remember in each race there must be a winner, so one of you had to win even if they were both exactly the same.
If for example "odds" of winning was 75 % or 90 %, it would mean probability of winning 750 000 or 900 000 races against that same horse out of 1 milion respectively.
The more races done, the more closer the actual results would tend to be to the nominal value given.
Since the chance of getting long string of races between the same two horses is virtually zero, this info is practically useless as any individual race can be win or lose regardless the odds, unless the odds were 100 %.
Now all that is true for standard statistics. If and to what extent that really works precisely this way here is another question. Chances are it does. Nevertheless, wheather it does or not, see above, it pretty much doesn't matter anyway.
Of course the practical result here is more Golden HS when winning against stronger horse, while getting less GHS when probability of winning was higner (against weaker horse). I guess the same as betting in real races on clear favourite would give you less win boost on your stake then betting on the horse which is expected to lose, where multiplication factor in case of winning could bring you a fortune out of a few bucks.
So far so good.
You lost me there. Statistics works even if it is not the same horse. You get more horseshoes if you win against stronger oponent, but this will happen less times. If you play against lower oponent you will get less horseshoes but more offten.
It is true that you are geting MUCH more horseshoes when facing opponent stronger than you, so in a long run, this means more golden horseshoes. BUT on other hand, then you will not raise up in leagues. Every league gets you more horseshoes (in golden you get 50% more) and you will get no league prices. So its hard to tell which strategy is better.
Thanks aaa.
I was not suggesting or debating any strategy at all. Just describing what these "odds of winning" numbers mean and how it translates to our gaming experience.
Of course statistics works every time, but any individual "odds of winning" given for any specific race is related just to that particular horse pair (race) at their state of developement. For different pair (or with modified strength of one of the horses) the "odds" value will be different. Which leaves us no other option than to only consider the same horses for that one "odds of winning" value, if we want to get correct results.
The reason I left some space for "not precisely this way" possibility is that I did not write the code so can't be sure about what other modificators to this standard "rule" the code makers might have included in the script.
Does it clear out what you might have misunderstood?
Exactly that
If you didn't understand it, at least you are not any worse then before.
Keep enjoying your game.
Sorry for being late but seems not to be any bugs around the Diamond League reach it heere to nigth just the 50 victorys to get in there and no prices just a list whit for now 1 name ;-)
Agility is what you train to improve your chance to win a dressage competition. Elegance is the other breeding effect you could get to enhance dressage, and only dressage.

WTG!!!
You do win those 4 prizes at the end of the season, though I am not too sure what you do with a "Diamond Medal".... Would be nice to get an instant prize after all your hard work. Congrats on being 1st one in there, you get to pick the best comfy chair hehe

Yay!!! Congratulations FreeWhiteful, 1st one home on WWW1 .... Raid the minibar before someone else gets in hehe
Well done in getting into the Platinum League. Amazing!!!!
Think you are confusing BV (breeding value) with Q (Quality). They are 2 different things. BV increases as you train in the various arenas. Quality is a random thing that MIGHT show in the foals you breed. The higher the BV at breeding, the more likely you are to get better Q in the foal.
2.) The (wrong) horse that competes in challenge races is IN TRAINING when they compete.
3.) How is it that when I challenge other players in horse competitions - the same few dozen players are available for me to challenge (when I know there are thousands more players I should be able to challenge, instead of the same ones over and over.)
2) training doesn't matter when being challenged. Only in challenging.
3) random chance? I don't think anyone but the programers know what the criteria are for the selection of horses to challenge. But that said, its likely you will be paired up more often with horses moving through the ladder at roughly the same speed as you are, than others. Otherwise, random is random. I just lost 6 of 7 challenges I made, all of which turned out to be 70% or greater in my favor. Shrug. Random is random.

Just to clarify, I realize that you don't lose points when your new colt is "in training" and can't be challenged, but during the overall process of raising its level through training.

The difference seems obvious to me.
To challenge you must be playing.
To receive the challenge....you don't even need to be awake much less on-line.
I have an oddity, it seems....I am stuck on 1249 for some time now...is that normal?
Yes, you can`t get passed 1249 to 1250 & into the diamond league until you have 50 wins in Platinum 1....... You are close! ^^

Maybe I am getting close....all three opponents are +77 and they keep reappearing after i lose
Edit: All three opponents have now changed to gold level 8|
It's been saying ~1 month remaining for at least 2 weeks...
