Since it is fun to find something out of the ordinary from time to time all actions in the game should have the ability to gain a curiosity.
Also specialisation might not work out that good in villages which are organized in a capitalistic way in case there are areas without the possibility to gain curiosities.

another one here..

I'm the farmer for our group, and i tend to have to mooch off their foraged curios as i spend hours a day harvesting and cooking for them, only to have had zero chance of getting a curios during all those activities, where in previous worlds i'd have come out of that work with a couple thousand LP atleast.

Its looking like i'll need quite a few Chicken coops if i'm to get enough fresh chickens to get a wishbone often.. that combined with some dandelions i fond on the front lawn only gets me so far..

I liked the idea of a lady bug dropping from crops or something, but i think this needs more variety than that.. even to the point of each type of crop dropping something different.. "Mishapen carrot", "Beetroot in the shape of Jorb", "Enormous Grape", "White tipped Hemp Bud", or maybe in the beehive, "Petrified Bee", or a craftable with Wax "Wax Sculpture",

If someone specialises in farming for a community, unless the guy has some fantastic friends, it'll be to his detriment LP wise... I think these kinds of ideas could be fun, reward work done, without being very grindable since our curio box is only a set size, if all these farming curios were short low ATT curios, with a few long high lp rare curios, they'd only be as 'grindable' as just about anything else that gives curios in nature.. kind of like an ant hill with it's multiple levels of LP curios possible. You're still limited by the space available and the attention you have.. And if somoene spent the time to get a farm going with all 14 different crops, and maintains it each day.. i think there should be some kind of LP reward for this.. Let me know your ideas for this!

if you're spending hours cooking and farming for your community and they aren't giving you good curios, then your community sucks, quite simply.

Maybe i could be asking more of them, but wouldn't it be nice if we all just collected our curios in our own way? it would seem appropriate to me anyway.. That way we could share curios instead of me leeching off them.

so, offer them some shewbread or straw dolls or poppy flowers i suppose, but it seems a fair trade to offer food and other farm byproducts for curios.

If you are doing all the cooking and farming for them all they should be showering you curios.
