I don't know if i'm just especially lazy, but I rarely, if ever remember to make shows, even though I am a deluxe with 4 arenas, totalling to 40 shows per day. As the riding school automatically changes discipline, I had an idea as a tangent to that.

Much like how auto showing works, there is a one click option that fills in randomly the price, and in what discipline the show goes into, and at any particular level. Maybe a small fee, like that when you upgrade all the tack at once, could be implemented with this?

I have no idea what the coding would be like for something like this, or if others would even find it useful, I just think its a shame that members like me, even though we have the best of intentions, do not contribute to the running of the game in all ways possible. It takes me a long time to hand show all my horses, train, treat, etc, so by the time i'm done with that the last thing i want to do it add to my list of 'pixel chores.' I feel like this could be a good solution.

let me know what you think(:

As a player with 200 shows, I would love that.

Rather than random, I would prefer something where you could select certain shows one time, and it would remember your selections from then on, until you decide to change them. I have 119 arenas, and it takes forever to create shows, and it's always the same ones - every specialty, starting at N1 and going up the levels until I run out of shows. I would save tons of time if I didn't have to input the same hundred or so shows every day. Maybe it could be a ERC thing, like auto care and auto showing.

I wouldn't want a random selection, though. Otherwise, I might end up with a ton of shows in one level/specialty, and nothing somewhere else.

Actually, I think I might make that a suggestion of its own. I bet there are plenty more people who have a ton of arenas and would use a feature like this.

Confessor i think that is a great idea.

However with the concept of it being random, it would prevent a build up of shows in one specialty, because a random algorithm wouldn't make that possible(:

I create 1190 shows a day, and counting. A truly random selection could possibly re-select the same specialty/level several times, and complete skip others, especially with that amount of shows, unless it is specifically programmed to not repeat. Which, in itself would be a problem, because I have more shows available than there are specialty/levels.

I know a bit about random algorithms. I used to play around with Markov chains a bit. (Not as a programmer, but just playing with the concept.) They're fun.

I'm sure some people would be just as happy with a random selection, but I prefer to have more control over where my shows go. No reason we couldn't do both, though.
