🎯 Product Update 🎯
🤖 NEW BOT POLICY
🤖
Part of our job is to ensure ZED RUN racing is accessible to all and it has come to our attention that a small number of users have been utilising bots to gain an advantage. We want to take a strong stance on this issue and, as a result, all bot usage with regards to racing on the ZED RUN platform is now banned. Effective immediately, the use of bots will result in disciplinary action, and we will be implementing measures to prevent the use of bots. We’ll also update our Terms & Services to reflect these changes.
😅Stamina Update 😅
Key changes to stamina, which have been designed based on feedback and data from the community, will be deployed next week. Here’s a reminder of what those changes are:
✔️ Reducing the number of races considered in the stamina calculation from 'number of races in the past 24 hours' down to 'number of races in the past 12 hours'
✔️ Displaying the Stamina bar, which itself will be adjusted to provide more clarity, in more areas across the ZED platform
✔️ Enabling 99% of racehorses to race at least 5 to 8 races before Stamina begins to deplete
✔️ Adjusting the rule that limits racehorses losing class points when they have less than 70% stamina from, 70% to 90% For more information check out our guidebook page on stamina >> https://guide.zed.run/racing/untitled-1/stamina
