Hm, I've actually been having a much easier time getting people to harvest now that you get a percentage of the crops. People are now much more willing to do low-money crops - before this change I had just been harvesting the low-coin crops myself, wasn't worth going to MP.

I don't mind if people just politely say they want plowing jobs at MP. Then I don't waste my time sending them a harvest-hire request. I hate it when people say "work, please" but then turn down the hire request; I assume they're waiting for a plow offer. Given that it sometimes takes a long time to get a response in the MP (and I usually wait a decent amount of time b/c I don't want to over-hire), it's disappointing to wait a long time for the response to just be "no thanks."

I don't really understand fishing for hire...if I want to go fishing, why wouldn't I just fish on my own farm and get 100% of the take? I've rarely seen a farm that doesn't have *some* water on it. Maybe it makes sense for really new people?
