As our head racers run, the come across the crumbly exit to the ravine as the third obstacle.
Kentouma and Echos goodwill and illwill spells both happen to reach Tusk this round and combine together creating a harmless cloud and neutralizing both effects.
Kagari's tailwind spell blows up behind Strike giving a +1 speed boost
Kentouma's tailwind spell whips up behind tusk and boosts her ahead by +1
Nighthenge's tailwind spell whirls around Notch before giving a boost of +1
Janalee's goodwill spell helps Scaling get down the ravine safely
AsaraDragon's tailwind spell helps Equid move along but the rocks begin to slide out from under her as she climbs up the ravine
Yildun's tailwind spell blows Scaling up and out of the ravine with a +1 speed boost
@Yildun - yeah, sorry, there is a round's delay in the spells or I almost definitely lose track of who was using which spells when and on who... it's already way more complicated and confusing than I imagined XD

((I hope there's still time for this... hehe)
Retinue squinted her eyes as the racers began to make their way through the final stretch of the course. She still had some tickets left and she was going to use them. She hurried back to the Sharian booth. A slippery banana peel was just the thing for Notch, and a goodwill spell for her hopeful Question. (All tickets gone)

((Whoops!
Thank you for the reminder, Kentouma. I have edited my post to reflect the proper ticket amounts.))

Flare glared and flicked her wings in irritation. She turns back to the vendor and purchases a goodwill spell and another tail wind spell for Notch.
I should have 3 left

Practically sitting on Pearl to keep her frothing herd-mate from climbing onto the track and physically attacking/tripping racers, awhile also trying to tether Omen to keep her from trying to join the racers, Pursuer watches solemnly as shy Peek cheers almost inaudibly. Ruby and Flicker return carrying snacks and start screaming encouragement to Tusk.

Ooh, good, got back in time to spend my last ticket!
Goodwill Spell for Scaling, please! (10/10 tickets spent)
And I certainly don't envy the amount of work the tickets and spells are making for you Silver- it definitely makes the race even more fun though, so thanks for doing it!

No problem. I realize this is really hectic for you, Silver and I wasn't trying to make more of a hassle. I'm also using my last three tickets for another Tailwind Spell on Scaling. XD

As the race continues, our winners may be right around the corner.
The effects of Kagari and Yildun's tailwinds continue into this round, giving Strike and Scaling a +1 speed boost
tierasa's tailwind spell floats over to Question and gives a +1 boost
Kentouma's goodwill and ill-will spells have no effect this turn
Operetta's goodwill spell gives Flash and Question a speed boost, but the illwill spell is not quite as fast acting. The headwind spell pushes back against Equid neutralizing the effects of Seren's tailwind
Sushidragon's headwind spell buffets Notch, slowing him by 1
Yildun's tailwind spell pushes Scaling closer to the finish, but the illwill spell doesn't quite reach is target yet
Kagari's banana peel lands right in front of Pursuer and manages to trip him up
Seren's tailwind spell tries to push Equid farther ahead but is neutralized by Operetta's headwind

Goodwill Spell for Equid, please!
(Let's see if I have the corrects totals for this round... 6 tickets out of 10 left, after spending 1 ticket).

As this round concludes, Equid manages to cross the finish, claiming first place.
Last rounds illwill spells from Operetta, Yildun, and Kentouma all combine this turn to slow Pursuer by 3, and Kentouma's goodwill spell speeds up Tusk by 1
Kentouma's goodwill and illwill effects reached their mark this turn boosting Tusk and slowing Pursuer
Yuiven's tailwind boosts Equids speed by 1
tierasa's goodwill spell doesn't quite reach Question this round and Notch is able to doge the slippery peel tossed out in front of him
Nighthenge's tailwind picks up boosting Notch towards the finish but the goodwill spell doesn't quite reach him yet
Echos' tailwind once again bubbles up the stream behind Blood, pushing her on towards the finish, but the goodwill spell takes a turn off in the wrong direction before fizzling out
Janalee's goodwill slowly makes its way onto the course but is a little slow
Yildun's tailwind spell boosts Scaling towards the goal
Novanight's tailwind blows behind Question helping her increase speed by 1
((my brain just about exploded... I definitely need a better way of tracking everything for next time!))

And with that round, a swarm of racers cross the finish. tierasa and Janalee's goodwill spells manage to reach Question and Scaling just in time as they pass the finish line, just ahead of the rest of the pack. Of the two of them, Scaling manages a fantastic leap right at the end, claiming second place and leaving third for Question.
First: Equid of the Prehistoric Past
Second: Scaling of the Lush Jungle
Third: Question of the Ancient Fields

Wow! That was a close race. Poor Pursuer... We all ganged up on him. I was just worried he'd barrel out front and end it before Scaling could even come close, but she managed to pull through! I'm actually amazed at how well, but then she had a lot of help from Janalee as well.
This was super exciting, Silvermoondragon! I hope we get more like this in the future, but hopefully we can figure out some fixes so it won't be quite as hard on the host next time. XD

Equid of the Prehistoric Past will be going home with Yuiven, Scaling of the Lush Jungle will be going home with Yildun, and Question of the Ancient Fields will be going home with tierasa
The other Samanayrs will be used in other events in the next few days/weeks so make sure to keep your eyes peeled if you didn't win this time.
Also, birthday cupcakes go to: Nova Night, Seren, AsaraDragon, and Janalee
Thanks for participating guys, things got a little crazy and confusing but it was still fun, and I hope you guys enjoyed it too. Even though it's more work for me, I still like doing races with interactive components! I'll definitely be brainstorming better ways of keeping track of things to make it easier next time.

What a great race! Congrats to the winners.
EDIT: WOW! I won Question? I'm so happy. When I saw Sushi coloring the other dino-sams, I was really hoping for an ankylo-type since that was always my favorite. XD
