How to fix BAD quests - blog edition!

I know Ian has a lot on his hands, and I appreciate all the work. However, there's these elephants in the room that have been irritating me long enough. It's these particular few quests that aren't/rarely worth it, or ask for such ridiculous items you're like "Are you serious?".

1. Personal trainer is no longer trash. Great!

2. Santa Claws: It's also trash.
I can understand why this is still the way it is; it used to be good with most toys being cheap. But now this isn't the case anymore. Most plushies are now over 5k with the increased selection of plushies, plushie collections, and now the new played toys collection.
Solution: Increase plushie odds from the machine/s, increase this quest MP payout and maybe even a random chance of him giving out exclusive prizes - perhaps little presents that contain goodies.

3. Hump racing: Yet another trash quest.
The chances of getting rewarded greatly is very low. 30 in 1 chance to win a measly 15k? Seriously? And the coupons have shot down to 1mp, as I exactly predicted. Newth racing is way better, which is much cheaper with greater odds. 2 in 1 chance to earn 3k with 1.5k, or spend 9k with a 2 in 1 chance to earn 1k?
The fact is, drinks are so expensive as there are three quests that specialise in asking for them (with Boraks Brew being the only one actually worth it), not to mention marapops being in demand for recycing prizes. Honestly I never liked the concept of this quest at all, since Puchalla Inn quests were expensive enough to complete.
Solution: More consolation prizes, increase odds and mp payout. And NO MORE beverage quests. Which brings me onto..

4. Puchalla Inn: Another bad quest.
Thanks to Boraks Brew and Hump racing, this quest is even worse. Why bother getting charisma and risking loss of MP, when I can get it cheaper/for free at murfin madness, school or the gullotine? I can't even choose which pet to gain charisma on. Jobs don't pay out very much anyway.
Solution: The chance to win some exclusive gourmet drinks and increased MP payout. Increase job payout too (especially because of the influx of rare school supplies) and let me choose which pet to gain charisma on.

5. Eleka prison: Ridiculously expensive items
I never supported the idea of gourmet minipet food, because now it will give Ian yet another job to code out super expensive/UB items.
Solution: Put a SS price cap on the items needed, and perhaps increase payout, now that RP is in higher demand. Also release more common, NON-GOURMET minipet food. Making it gourmet just increases the demand for the items in question and makes feeding the minis a gauranteed waste of MP, hence less doing the quest.

The Sewer monster used to be listed here, but now it no longer asks for ridiculously expensive gumballs. Hoorah!

I like those quests for weekly quest challenges.

Yeah, I have only won two ruins in nearly 70 quests. And the Runes take a bit to sell - I've noticed.

Eleka prison is one I enjoy although sometimes it is hard to come by jars of food. If you put in enough quests you can make good mp off of the simerion (spelling) explorer.

Puchalla Inn
Only ever done this ONE time on the 25% day when the pool party invited me to do the quest. It awarded me 35k, but I only spent like 1,000mp. I don't know how much it normally awards, but it sure does ask for expensive stuff.

I also paid for the Simeon Explorer, and it has yet to have made me ANY sort of profit.

Yes! Someone who finally brings this up! I find myself thinking the same thing for a lot of these quests, especially with these pool party tasks asking me to do sewer monster and personal trainer. And I agree with the solutions!
