Brilliant, just brilliant, having the posts on the wall requests turn pink when you have worked on those facilities! Some of my neighbors post their facilities 3 or 4 times a day and it was so hard to remember which ones I had worked. Thank you for the update.

I have a question... on the fuel rule, does this apply to super neighbors? If so, how do i unselect it? thanks

Hi Martha,
It currently only applies to super neighbors in that they use your fuel. Changes for thatmay come soon, but we will have to wait for the developers to work on this. There will be an update here if or when anything changes on this.

Thanks for the update. It appears that there is a problem when hiring in the market. I usually hire for one or two things at a time rather than all jobs. I hired for flowers. It appeared that I could not then hire someone else for harvest and plow. I guess this is for the time/job extension which is a good idea if someone gets booted. However it is a hassle if popping on quickly to get harvesting sorted. I don't often accept multi-jobs myself. In the end I spotted my worker and rehired for flowers and harvest and plow. Now later and off to the market to try and hire for the rest of the jobs.

Hi Cherry,
I am not sure why you were not able to hire a second person for different jobs. We will have to test this.

Thanks. Several others in the market were saying their sent hires were not working either. I will go back later when I have time and see what is happening.

Hi Cherry,
If you are trying to send a hire to someone who has already had one sent before yours then you won't be able to as they do not let new hires load over the top of the one already sent. The worker has 30 seconds to accept or decline. They will not get another hire request until that one expires or they decline.

Yes, I am aware of that restriction when hiring, it is great as very annoying when another used to come over the top of a hire you were trying to accept. After my initial hire this morn I sent or tried to send about 10 hires at least for other jobs and none seemed to work, I noticed others saying their hires weren't working either so thought it was worth mentioning in case someone else was having the same problem. I often have to send several hires to get one accepted but farmers weren't replying at all so presumably the hires didn't go through and from the comments in the market others were finding the same.

Hi Cherry,
I am not sure why it didn't work for you but we tested this and had no problems. Were you possibly trying to hire for different jobs but on the same farm?

Yes, some of the farms have several items for work so when I hire there is sometimes cross over of different work. It is my habit to hire for trees, check work, ALL farms tree work selected and sent then a separate hire for say, Fishing and Chop, some may be the same farms. So in one visit to the market my usual habit was 4 hires I think, different jobs but yes there would be some cross over on farms.
