I just ran a bunch of sample Sagg quests, and:
Simulation Summary Average Net Value: 79,248 sP Profitable Outcomes: 97 out of 100 Profit Rate: 97.0%
So I still need to do some tweaking to make the rewards higher (since it's an sP only reward, I do want it to feel quite high for removing those items from the system), but I'm pretty happy with the number of quests it takes to get an unprofitable one!
I agree on asking for repeats, I'm going to see if I can do something about that π

psst keith fancy pressing your big olβ reset button so i can satisfy my need to quest?
And, just to give overall feedback as a returning user !
I actually quite enjoyed the new quest system! It worked really well yesterday (my first real use of the Kumos site to be honest), my rewards were all great - I had an overall profit, though I can't remember how much exactly! I'm not sure how I feel about not having to tab out/do a shop search for quest items though, as people have commented on this thread previously, I'm one of those who will double buy an item if it's on my beanbag/sticker wishlist and I'm asked for it by the NPC... But, overall, this was my only real 'gripe', and even then, I'm sure I'd learn to get used to the new system in time :)
// Edit to Add // I can also confirm I'm currently getting a quest point every 5 quests!

What will this mean for Morty Cards?
I've pressed the big fancy button π
Right now you can continue to use your Morty card on the main site, I haven't made a decision about them going forward. I'd really prefer to not implement all of the CSC stuff just for that little buff, so I might just make it so they're all redeemable for the full value, or something!
I'll take a look at how many have been redeeemed over the past year, and how much CSC has gone out in that method to get a sense of it, and try to move that free CSC (because it's valuable to have a small amount circulating in the system) elsewhere, for a less RNG based reward.

Feedback on today's questing:
starting screen of each QG changed to default theme, changed to chosen theme once the quest starts
Rumi asked for Purple Eel Sticker, a common item (41), that was neither in the user shops nor stocked in main shop.
the number of quests on the overview page still starts with 6/3 quests if no quests were done yet, and 3/3 if they were done. Is that a bug or a feature?
Huh. Kumos quests have been pretty fine but when I did my quests last night, I was unable to do a sticker quest because a common item was completely sold out in user shops and didn't restock in the main shop. I refreshed shop search around every 5 minutes. Kind of a bummer since I like getting those reputation points up and I basically just.. missed out on 1 of my 3 daily points due to a common item (the Purple Eel Sticker) being totally unavailable. ... Oh, looks like now someone has a few in their shop for 150k. Lol. Okay.
Aaalso this is a small layout thing... but... is the part of the reputation points progress bar that's 'filled in' supposed to overflow the progress bar...? It looks a little awkward...
EDIT: Didn't realize someone else had the same exact issue with the Purple Eel Sticker lol. Should've refreshed before I posted (or just remembered to post last night when I actually did my quests.)
And now I'm also having the theme change issue mentioned above. I keep having to manually change it back.

Here hoping it'll be pressed again π

was doing Sag daily quests and this was the first one I got:
not found anywhere
Buy From User Shops (cheapest: 13,000sP)
Buy From User Shops (cheapest: 100,000,000sP)
edit: This is the first time I've tried the daily quests, did not even knew they existed because I use legacy
2nd quest after I quit the first was 2 affordable items and Buy From User Shops (cheapest: 14,999,999sP)
Interesting... I did Saggi day before yesterday (after the last reset) and he asked for stuff in his legacy price range, one quest was 3 items totalling 170k. Payout was (like posted before) measly, around 20k profit each time. Before the reset I had one quest 3 items totalling 1,2 mio and I received 1,7 mio - no need to mention, I liked this way better ;-) Looks as if this was still very luck based.
Maybel's payout was better, the other 3 very poor, esp. Wizard with only 15 tokens, a low & cheap rare book and ~6k cash.
Please press big fancy button again, quests did not reset for me
Same for me, did mine a couple hours before reset last night and it still says I've done them already
Yes, would love a press of the big fancy button, mine haven't been reset in a day or two :/
I was starting to wonder if it was just me waiting more than a couple of days for a reset ^^;

I wish, still waiting on a reset.
any chance you could push that button so I can get questing ^-^
The quests themselves are fine so far, but the layout of the quests page could really do with some re-jigging. Everything is so... big and I'm constantly having to scroll down a bit just to click the button to move on. It's be much more user friendly if everything was arranged similar to how quests are now where everything fits cleanly on the screen at the same time; information to one side and items/rewards in a row on the other. That big coloured bar at the top just pushes everything down and even with the CSS I've added to shrink things a bit, it takes up an awful lot of space for how little it tells you.
it'd be nice if we could still tab out to buy the item, instead of just checking the box and automatically doing it. I really liked hitting shop search, that's how I find most of the stuff I want/need, restock, learn the prices and stuff. I don't know if this has been mentioned or if I'm missing something, so sorry if so.
also, please don't get rid of the Morty cards!!! this was a feature I didn't know about until recently and it's soooo good. it's probably also the only way some people like new players are able to get csc.
Reset - Wizard still disappojnting peanuts and only a 15 point token. Saggi did not ask for anything special/expensive, every item around 30k. 2 quests were o.k. with around 120k payout, 3rd one gave 75k for 65k items. Neither makes me dance with joy, has less turnout than quests now.
I've made some major modifications to the way that items are asked for, so you should (hopefully) see a lot less of a single item being asked for. I've added additional checks to make sure that we're not letting all of the items just get bought up, for example. There are now additional checks to make sure there are enough of the item on the site (supply) before allowing it to be asked for.
Sagg was modified to not have specific label requests, for now, until I can work on that a little more. So he'll be pulling from normal items, just asking for expensive ones ;). These quests should be more doable 3 times a day.
And I know that folks are starting to hit the reputation levels to hit level 2 in some quests (they're not standardized, but should be soon), which means you'll see an additional bump of sP as you're doing quests. Enjoy!
You can click on the item picture, and then 'shop search' in another tab. You can still search the shops if that's your preferred method, and if you refresh the page it'll let you get those items from your inventory.
