Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Stupid things like that are why "time travel" isn't cheating. I'm not planning my life around a game, the game will work around my life.

But won't setting my clock back to buy turnips and then going back to real time spoil my turnips?

Only going backwards after you've bought the turnips will spoil them.

You can skip forward as much as you need, just don't do beyond the next Saturday obviously.

I've been thinking about trying to force out my first couple villagers and invite them back. Can do it with friends and trading or easier with amiibo.

The first 5 have such sh*tty houses. When I check the wikis can see what they are supposed to look like, it's so disappointing.

I guess I could just naturally let them leave too. But I like most of them. The ones I didn't I let go already.

I've been giving my villagers things that I think will look nice in their houses and hope they use them. For the most part, it works. I'm going to need to give them a lot of wall art though since their walls and floors are so plain.

Thanks Stele. I was under the assumption that any time travel would cause the turnips to rot. I am also pulling back from my normal 60 stacks to 30 stacks starting this week. Got the Nook Mile achievement for the Stalk Market so now it's just for the fun/novelty while I can. Once I have to go back into the office I will miss all my AM prices during the week.

Not sure what bumped me over the edge, but Isabelle said 5 star rating when I checked in tonight!

It was surprising because I am trying the six-rock-zen-garden-mannequin thing, and the island looks and feels messy.

We just got our 3-star rating by adding another villager and spamming decorations at the back of the island. I clumped together a bunch of fencing on the rocks by the sea that are up north as well. They probably think your mannequins are decorations.

Redd's here today, selling fake amazing, scenic, and academic paintings, if anyone's interested. We have to do some errands at around noonish EST but can leave the gates open.

(I bought the ancient statue.)

Rats, missed it!

Let me know if you decide to reopen and have any fake art left.

Redd is on my island too. He's selling a real perfect painting a fake detailed painting, a fake warrior statue and a real robust statue (bought). I'll open gates in a minute.

Edit: open. Bianca is also making a cherry wall and it's raining.

Edit Edit: If anyone could bring some white/red mum seeds, that would be great.

Sweet, on my way!

EDIT:

Thanks again!

When our store opens I'll check for you and mail them along if so.

Also, we've got Bianca the white tiger in boxes today -- let me know if anyone wants to invite her to their island, and I'll open the gates for you. (Genji is moving in to replace her!)

Ok, gates open. We'll just leave the gates open while we're gone. Stuff in front of the town square is free, make sure to bring a ladder.

Edit: Also dropped 3 white mum seeds if you feel like coming over to grab them FH, no worries if it's not worth the trip.

Edit edit: switched to dodo code because the wife's playing: 1CQ16. (sorry FH)

Edit edit: Closing gates but let me know if you want any of the fake art and I'll try to reopen.

Edit: Grabbed the seeds. Thanks!

Can't find your island when I search for islands to travel to, stupidhaiku.

KK Slider is here playing at Residential Services for my birthday is anyone wants to come visit (closed).

Keep in mind we're a work in progress, but you are welcome to anything at Nook's or the Abel Sisters.

Happy Birthday

Happy birthday, RedJen!

Everyone get fake art to their satisfaction?

Already planning to sell my turnips elsewhere this week. According to Turnip Prophet, I'm looking at a near 90% chance of fluctuations and a smallish chance at a small spike (10% - 11%). Max for me will be at around 200 bells.

Happy Birthday RedJen!

Happy Birthday, RedJen!

100% small spike for me this week. One day I'll get the super duper big spike...

Realised today that breeding flowers takes a looooooot of time, space and effort! But I kinda enjoy waking up each day to the exciting prospect of that first Blue rose!

Got 2 Blue Pansies now which is exciting for some reason.... Funny, play games like total war where you command thousands of troops and have epic battles, but waking up and seeing some blue flowers somehow fills me with excitement...

Sahara is on my island, and Flurry is making a Tiny Library. If anyone is interested, I'm leaving my gates open for a bit. Dodo Code is 26YFR.

Fluctuating for the fourth week in a row. Zucker finished moving in and Kicks is here today. According to Isabelle, we're going to get shooting stars tonight!

I love all my blue pansies! <3 <3 <3

(I love pansies in general and have been one of my favorites since childhood!)

I'm starting to think I'm cursed: I got Kicks twice in the past 5 days (his previous visit was on the 21st), but no Redd since he was first introduced.

Yay. Let us know when you open the gates after dark.

Seems the strategy now for meteor showers is to wish on 20 stars and have visitors wish on 20 stars each, for maximum star bits the next day.

I have not seen Celeste on my island in over a month and Isabelle has never mentioned a meteor shower in my morning news. I wonder if I messed something up the first time Celeste showed up...

In other news, Turnips dropped this morning so I am fluctuating this week again.

Also, happy belated birthday RedJen!

Turnip-wise, looks I'm locked in for a small spike this week, after being absolutely convinced that I was gonna be on another fluctuating week.

As I believe I've stated before, Kicks is the herpes of Animal Crossing visitors. His flare-ups happen more and more frequently, and when visitors like Redd and CJ realize you have a nasty case of Kicks, they don't want anything to do with you.

Got the DIY & did some shopping with Sahara. Love your island’s layout. So many fun areas to explore!

Sorry, but I must disagree about Kicks. I LOVE Kicks. He is one of my most favorite visitors. I have gotten so many cool bags and things from him that have really helped me enjoy picking out and wearing my daily outfits. Kicks is in my town today in fact and I bought three more bags from him that I can't wait to use later!

I think Celeste only shows up on clear nights? She was in my town the other day as I posted here when I opened my gates, but I haven't experienced any actual meteor showers in weeks, though I haven't been diligent about checking for them *every* night. Went to someone else's island to wish on some stars and finally got a large star fragment for the first time ever. Didn't get a single Gemini fragment though.

Maybe we're getting different Kicks. You have gotten the cool, helpful Kicks that brings stylish and awesome bags and shoes to your island. That's fantastic. My Kicks shows up nine times a week, drowned Redd in the shallow tide, sent Flick off crying after making fun of her tights, and sells nothing but used Piggly Wiggly grocery bags and the terrible flip flops you buy at a gas station in Panama Beach when it's three in the morning and you just traded your shoes for meth. Also, he flipped me off once I assume.

lmao, I'm dead at the Piggly Wiggly grocery bags. Can't ... Breathe ...
