I have lost all kinds of interest in this game. I have played for several years with multiple grade 1 wins and horse of the year I have 11 stables. 77,000 BPs and 15,000 credits. My breeding stock is amazing. So many blue bloods as that’s all I bred. I have had tons of fun here but I just don’t want to play anymore. I want to donate everything to someone who will appreciate what I have built. Every stable has 20% win rate.
Who would like these stables? Please send me a message. Or I can donate the stables to tommy Tommy has first dibs
Thanks again for the great years

So sorry to hear this Bill, but I totally understand. I've been there a few times, yet I always have found myself staying. I thank you for your support over the years, your prize offerings and friendship. I wish nothing but the best for you my friend! Maybe one day, you will ,miss it and come back. Goodbye for now bud, but hopefully one day....... Take care my friend.  |

I feel your pain Bill ... I am very much weighing up whether or not to fold up my multiple stabled conglomerate myself after 20+ years at simulatedsports.
I have found another game that is nothing like this, and is in fact quite inferior, but is something new and for now is taking a whole lot of my simsports time.
I just think the game has become too geared towards the high paying/credit customer and just sick to the hind teeth of the same few getting the luck when it comes to breeding. One player can breed multiple times to a certain sire and get nothing great and then one of the chosen ones breeds the same sire and gets a multi millionaire. It is luck I know, but feel the credit buyers get too much geared their way.
It is not so much sour grapes, just sick of being a battler at best when putting as much into the game as the next player. Not sure what needs to change for me to get my funk back, I have had these lulls before, but the game has become a chore and I just can't be bothered doing the basics.
Sorry to hijack your post Mr Lucky, but feel your frustration at a game I know we both enjoyed so much for many years.
Hope you get the itch back one day and maybe find a way back into the game. Maybe look for a player who would be willing to hand the reigns back should you choose to return someday.
Good luck with whatever you decide.

2 Eclipse 2 BB wins New Yorker win. Some others as well. I have the fastest 2yo again this year. Despite it all, I really don't have the enthusiasm I once had. Will probably stick around in a smaller capacity. I'm down to about 130 horses now I think and most need to retire.

I totally understand then burn-out and lack of enthusiasm for the game. I've been playing on and off for over 20 years now - I've never had great success, just a few group winners here and there. At least in part because I've never invested much money in credits, etc. I've taken long (year or more) breaks at least two or three times..... I end up coming back to my stables and playing again. Most of my horses are mediocre at best, but I go through the motions of entering them and checking results.

Always stinks to lose long-time players. I'm actually in the reverse situation. I dialed down for 5-6 years after playing seriously for a solid 10 years. Was just running just non-stake horses and doing minimal breeding, but then the past 2 years or so I've been back full of interest.
Guess it all depends on what you are expecting from the game.
With Mike making updates to the game, maybe instead of throwing in the towel or nearing that point, reach out to him to voice concerns and/or offer suggestions.
Either way, as someone else suggested, I'd hand over stables to someone who would be willing to return them or just let the stables sit idle. Mike doesn't remove horses or delete stables, so they will be sitting there if/when you return.
