Taz,
Seems unlikely that the black box would have to download the same crop on 21 farms. Having been at this game since 2009. The black box issue hasn't always been a problem and as of late it is a real issue with the game. Last evening was the worst. Finally gave up, apologized to the other farmer and left the game. Raul and his team do an awesome job at bringing up new items and ideas. However, the old issues that seem to hang around need to be addressed. Seems it gets worse right before an update.
