Trite, contrived, mediocre, milquetoast, amateurish, infantile, cliche-and-gonorrhea-ridden paean to conformism, eye-fucked me, affront to humanity, war crime, should *literally* be tried for war crimes, talentless fuckfest, pedantic, listless, savagely boring, just one repulsive laugh after another
Is there some trick to getting blue weevil beetles to spawn? I have plenty of palm trees, and given their low sell price it sounds like they should be common. But all I ever see are miyama stags and drone beetles.

Redd is in town with the following!


The two paintings on the left appear to be genuine and the remaining statue thingy is a fake. Still got a few bits of stuff I don't want any more on the beach and a few recipies for the taking also. If you fancy watering my crappy rear end black and purple roses at the top of the island that would also be very kewl too, I"ll be semi AFK

Edit: have been advised the famous painting is a fake, my bad! It's still available if someone wants a fake one!

I wonder if the spawn rate got adjusted in a recent update, because I remember seeing them a lot in the first part of the month, but I've seen pretty much none in the last week or so.

Blanche on my island has given me the DIYs for a bamboo bench and a bamboo shelf.

Viewtiful Jew posted:

Any of the young-bamboo material ones were only available during that time period. I think they still make most of the ones that just take normal bamboo.

Ah ok. It looks like I did at least get all of the young spring bamboo recipes when those were available, so I guess I'm just unlucky with the villagers DIYs. Thanks!

they take up a perfectly good horned hercules or giraffe stag spot far too often, in my experience

Also christ the daily scallop swim is so tedious and awful. Let me swim faster gently caress

I'm doing it on two characters until I get all the DIYs, and it's pretty awful. Some days you find a scallop in 10 minutes and Pascal pops right up, other days you spend an hour looking and Pascal doesn't pop up until your 4th scallop. I'd honestly rather just have him as a visitor like Flick where I can trade sea life to him for random stuff; at least then I could farm when I just wanted to chill and stock up for the days he was in town.

I wish I knew why I have such trouble finding scallops. Lately, I've been more likely to catch isopods and giant clams than a scallop.

The giant clams move way faster than scallops, so they should be easy enough to ignore.

Speaking of meteor showers my island, Discovery, currently has a big one! Celeste is trapped by the fossils and Olaf is crafting a tall lantern. Please please please take as many of the DIYs and fossils on the beach to the right of the airport as you want. I'll be open for about 2 hours. Dodo code is CLOSED. Thanks for coming everyone.

When I was a kid, I had to get up at like 6 or 7 in the morning. Sometimes I'd play games for a while after getting ready, or watch shows.

Hell sometimes my brother and I would get up earlier to start the day with MechWarrior 2.

Even if I'd been allowed to play video games as a kid, there's no way I would have been allowed to TOUCH them during daylight hours. But tbh boomer parents probably had more rules about TV time and stuff ten million years ago when I was a kid.

CJ is on my island if you are in need of copious amounts of bells or model fish! He's wandering around the rightmost corner in the fruit orchard.

Nook's is selling a board game and a rock guitar and Able's has mage robes.

Take anything you want except for the two gold roses that some wonderful goons brought me or the two purple hyacinths. I'll be semi-AFK because I'm working, but I have breaks sometime where I just sit and listen to people fight!

yesterday for the first time I realized I forgot that one of the additional rooms of my house had some turnips (gone rotten) that I forgot to sell a few weeks ago

and nook still paid 80 bells per rotten ‘nip to take my trash!?

feels bizarre after there always being a charge to dispose of trash in the earlier games imo

He just be like that sometimes.

He has a history of it:

quote:

Pascal is a little otter or some sort that is supposed to come and talk with you when you find a 'scallop' from the deep sea. He is willing to trade you some rare 'Pirate item' for your scallop (according to the game book. )
I have found and brought up at least 3 scallops from the deep sea, and yet the little friend is nowhere to be found... What am I doing wrong?
By the way, I am in my hometown, not at Tortimer's, so it should work...

Thanks in advance!! :) Nicky_moon - 6 years ago

He doesn't always come keep trying maybe then he will Thelivingmuffin - 5 years ago

Is there some way to inject new life into the randomness of this game? For maybe the past two weeks almost everything has been dupes for me on what feels like a daily basis:

- Nook's Inventory
- Mable's Inventory
- Fossils Discovered
- Balloon / Bottle DIYs
- KK Records

It's seriously starting to feel like Groundhog Day, and we all know life feels enough like that already. Is this happening because I don't visit people enough? Don't have them visit me?

Do not do anything in this game every day, that you don't want to do. Or any game really.
