Re: Prehistoric Gambit
*laughs* I still can't believe that a mini Arboreal came in second- those tickets really do add a fun, evening element to the Races! Would it be easier if people had fewer tickets, or if you had a Race Assistant/Ticket Taker to help out with any more Races like this one, maybe?
Congrats to all the winners, and thanks for the Cupcake!

She just exploded with energy at the end there. Maybe she found some good trees to jump across in that section.

I think maybe fewer tickets would make it easier than a ticket taker might. Especially when it's our own Sams racing. Maybe 5 or 8? Then you'd really have to manage how you're spending them and the banana peel would be for extreme measures only, or something that you'd have to decide about using near the beginning, since you couldn't do much else besides that.
Edit: Also, maybe in future races, the people who enter their own Sams can't use tickets or bet? That's if the prize is one of the normal ones, for the Sam, and the people betting get something else? It would nullify some of the fun, but be offset by the chance of winning. Might feel bad if multiple people spread the hurt onto your Sam, but if this is combined with less tickets, there might be less of that to go around as well. Hrmmm...

Re: Prehistoric Gambit
Thanks for the suggestions guys, fewer tickets was definitely something I had though about, since I didn't really think about just how many goodwill spells would happen, I actually mostly threw them in as an afterthought for that one ticket left over after three tailwinds XD
I think they also need a little balancing since the goodwills seemed almost as good as the tailwind spell but cost less, so I need to change around the probability of the spell failing, and perhaps change tailwinds up to +2 bonus.
I'd say the biggest confusion though, was the delay, and when I forgot to write down in my posts which Samanayrs the delayed spells would be effecting and I'd have to go back through the posts to find that out. A better system to keep track of things on my end will definitely help too. If I remember, the first interactive race was pretty hectic too, but not as bad the second time around.

Re: Prehistoric Gambit
I would happily help out if you needed it. Retta and I are really great at organizational things. This was a really fun race.
Re: Prehistoric Gambit
Congrats to all the winners! I wish I'd been able to be on when it was going, it looks like a lot of fun.
