i powder a
granite monument
in a soundless flash

showering the grass
with molten drops of
its gold inlay

sending smoking
chips of stone
skipping into the fog
Everyone calls me Sweetkins and I've never had a villager ask for a catchphrase (not once in 50 days)

I'm what the kids call: a big nerd
you know what would be better than every single villager adopting the same dang catchphrase and all becoming super samey? if they, i dunno, did they same thing they did re: nicknames and asked for your opinion, so I wouldn't have to send them to isabelle's happy fun time reeducation room for saying stuff that doesn't match their appearance or personality at all*.

I've only been asked to change a catchphrase once, but once I did, it immediately spread to the other villager of the same personality type (jock) so I had thought it might have something to do with that. A week later, it's still only the two jock villagers using it.

So I just realized- an amiibo card puts a villager in boxes on the third day in a row you use it, right? That's guaranteed as far as I know.

If a villager asks to leave, they're in boxes the next day, and there's an empty plot the third day.

So, if for instance my friend just got Raymond, who I think is swell, and she's not super into... I just need to let her know when a villager in my town asks to leave. She scans an amiibo. Next day my villager is in boxes, she scans it a 2nd time. Third day I've got an empty plot and she's forced Raymond into boxes.

There's nothing wrong with this plan, is there? She's got access to bootleg amiibo cards so it's no problem for her to use them to boot someone- except for the fact that it's less random and therefore less fun. I just need to wait for someone to naturally ask to move out.

you know, i really wish custom catchphrases didn't spread as fast as they do in this game. I remember it being a thing in the past, but it wasn't nearly as contagious.

I shouldn't have three different villagers decide to take felicity's custom catchphrase in one day. it doesn't fit them.
I got lucky, the first villager that asked me was Olaf the smug anteater. I made him say "sniff sniff" 'cause it's vaguely snooty and he's got a big nose.

Well, now my whole town has a cold 'cause they're all saying sniff sniff. But it works.

I have kept in mind going forward that catch phrases are extremely contagious, and so I've been giving them stuff that's not super specific to that villager. Or else I've got to make peace with the idea that a villager's personal phrase might start a trend of other villagers mimicking them.

Reneigh the horse wanted a new catch phrase and I couldn't resist making her say "né," and if other people start doing it to it won't make sense, except in the sense that they're mindlessly copying the cool thing Reneigh is saying 'cause they think she's cool or whatever. I'm kind of interested to see how far a villager's personal fad phrase could spread. It's fun to think of the phrases as still belonging to certian villagers, and when other villagers use it it's a kind of influence thing. It'll be interesting to see who abandons Olaf's "sniff sniff" camp, and who sticks with it. It'll be funny if Olaf abandons it and other villagers are following an old trend months later or whatever.

Your listing isn't private, you're gonna have redditors trampling your flowers and drawing dongs on your noticeboard :ohdear:

Granted goons would also draw dongs on your noticeboard but still.

There's a checkbox on the last screen when creating the listing that makes it private. A public listing with a high turnip price and no fee will be sniped by bots instantly.

Saharah is here with Mortar Wall (pretty neat), Ranshackle Floor, and rugs I forgot about.

Leopold is crafting Steel-Frame Wall.

Nooks have a Loom. edit: GONE

Spare DIY drop-off/pickup on the right-side beach.

If anyone has a spare Saharah ticket, I’m sitting on 4 and would love to get a new floor. Willing to trade.

Pls don’t go nuts on my peaches. If you need a couple it’s fine though.
