After some back and forth with the contest administrators, I got my shoe back. They thanked me for providing them with "good feedback." Works for me!

I ran 4th last night, but somehow still have a shoe. I believe 4th is "o.k" and you don't lose your shoe.

Wonder why you would lose a shoe and I didn't?

Just checked, and I've still got a shoe. Thought you had to be 3rd or better, but it's 4th or better. Thanks!

big, I thought there was something wrong with the site, leading to many eliminations. I e-mailed the administrator of the contest, and he got back to me with this:

"We have an established user base of 3000 plus players many of which play the harness horses and did not make picks in this contest for the quarterhorses and therefore were eliminated from the contest."

Seems a little strange that their "established user base" was "signed up" for the contest automatically; maybe they just wanted to overstate the participation in it.

Yeah, that is odd..overstating probably true..

Hit the wall and finished 21st.

Compared to the rest of us, I really don't think you should be unhappy with 33rd place

Do you normally play the Quarters or just for contest stuff?
