Newly printed flyers appear on the Market Boards all over Eorzea calling for any would be chocobo racer, trainer, or dreamer.

((OOC: In non Eorzean terms, the race will be on Saturday March 15, at 7pm EST starting at Black Brush station. If you wish to participate in the race please get there a little earlier so you can pay your entry fee and so that we can jot down your name. Chocobos are the only mount allowed in the race, others could cause panic among spectators, and we wouldn't want people to be mistaken for Ascians when you come riding a floating eye. The race will consist of three laps around a designated track. There will be three members of Equilibrium-RP at various spots around the track, the locations will be given on the day of the race. All racers must ride past these three checkpoints in order to be qualified to win the race. Top three finishers will be paid prizes, the sums based upon the number of entries, so the more people to participate the higher the prize!

While my guild will not be in charge of betting Raeras and her team of bookies will be there to facilitate for your gambling needs. Though as this is the first race, the odds will probably not be based on previous races.

This first race goes through a lowbie area as we didn't want to excluded low level characters by racing through Mor Dhona, so we've chosen a track that will hopefully have some obstacles to slow down riders and make things challenging. Depending on attendance and interest higher level tracks will be considered later.

I did notice that today there was another event occurring on Balmung of a similar nature. I guess great minds thing alike Smile. I hope everyone enjoys both races. Please remember to check back on this post come Friday March 14th to see the map of the race track posted on this thread. Can't give those intrepid riders too much of a headstart in practice.))

Ooh, very cool! I'm glad our races are happening on different weekends, haha. I also think it's funny how both of our FC's have been planning races behind the scenes at the same time, without ever really being aware that the other was doing it as well. XD Great minds, indeed!

I'll be encouraging our FC to participate, for sure  - it sounds like a load of fun, and really very different from our own! Moogle

Honestly, if you and Xellie put your minds together, maybe you could come up with your own Eorzean NASCAR....NASCHOCO?  Eh...I dunno.

Either way...two weekends of choco races?  Sounsd awesome!!  I hope to attend both!

Cross posted to the Dark Embers calendar. A few of us may drop by briefly, but it's pretty close to our weekly FC event, so we might have to leave before the event finishes. Curious about it though!

We're going to group in Black Brush Station which will have the start and the finish. I'll post the map tonight/tomorrow morning with the locations of everything. You could probably stand anywhere along the tract, but I think start/finish will have the most people.

Excited for this tomorrow! For those interested in betting, Myself and T'iathar will be positioned at the starting area in Black Brush to take bets! It will be decimal odds for this, at least since it's the very first race.

All bets will be made in real gil and paid up front. Minimum bet is 100 Gil

For an example of how the odds work you can take a look Here under the 'How It Works' tab.

There will be two areas to bet on.

The first area will be betting on who will win the race. Pretty straight forward- you just bet on who you think will win. The odds for this will be 2.00 (double your money)

The second area will be on correctly guessing at least the first five places-if you wish to try and guess all of them, be my guest! The odds on this will be 2.50 (If you bet 100 Gil you get 250 back). Remember though, if even one is wrong, you lose.

If there are any questions feel free to PM me or send a tell in game to Raeras Valhalla or T'iathar Nuhn!

Thank you to all who attended the chocobo races!

With the donations from House Dubois, from Mr. White, and the entry fees. The total pay out to the top three finishers being around 80,000k.

Congrats to our winners.
1st- D'emi Rohjah
2nd- Kassandra Enora
3rd- Ereshkigal Ahriman

Keep a look out for the date and location of our next races! If you are interested in helping to sponsor the next race feel free to contact Evelyn Strider. We can work in a Company announcement to tell all assembled gathers and racers.

Once again thanks to everyone! You made this event a huge success!
