*Show Entry Cap

This is why I dont bother to AutoShow, even when the wishing well gives it to me for free. I dont need my horses competing against themselves, especially if they both have the stats to get first places in all of their shows.
I easily get 20k from show earnings by only showing a portion of my horses at a time through manual showing while AutoShowing can only really get me 10k or less in earnings.

No support, sorry

Support! Only if the show system itself is.fixed though...

I know people have large herds of horses. I know i personally work 40 hours a week and have a thing called a Real Life. I do not have time to spend *hours* hand entering my horses.

With the current show system the way it is, I don't think a cap on how many horses a player can enter per show is feasible as there is already a shortage of shows. The whole show system ought to be revamped in a way that isn't detrimental to players with larger herds.

As it stands I have to say no support with how shows are currently made. I very rarely have enough shows for all my horses so have to stuff as many as possible into the same shows just to get them shown. And even then several end up in riding schools for at least half their show slots. 

Now if game made shows came back and were generated as soon as shows run out then I MIGHT support. 

I'm bringing this back up for discussion.
I feel like auto showing is a waste of money and credits if my horses are all getting entered into the same shows.
I end up doing a combination where I search for shows my horses of one level can enter and then click lowest entries so that they won't be entered in the same classes.

I could see this being a problem for people with more horses.

One suggestion I've made in the past is an auto showing random option. Thoughts?

Maybe EV its self could "host" 10 shows in every grade; I imagine that alone would help a little bit. 

Seeing this topic come up again, I did find a way to have less of my horses in the same show. Using auto show, select 'Lowest Entries', especially immediately after generating your own shows. I got some foundations with over 1000 stats by the time they were 17, so it kinda works; not for all of them though since some are severely lagging behind.

It's just a temporary solution to a bigger problem. There needs to be some form of auto generated show system. The whole thing with 'oh my shows haven't run yet so I can't create more' is very frustrating. I log in usually right after cron runs (11 AM or 12 PM UK time). If my shows haven't run, chances are I'll either forget or cannot be bothered to log in just to see if they've run, unless the game specifically tells me 'horse entered in <10 shows cause there are none'.
