Ah, well I guess the downside is missing out on his gift, and just being mean to Gulliver in general.

Still soliciting info on flower seeds, please tell me your native flowers, the second flower type you see on islands/permanently in your shop, and what your third flower type is now/last week/the week before.

I have tulips on the clifftops, I see tulips and hyacinths consistently in the shop/Nook islands, I have also seen both windflowers (last week) and pansies (this week) show up in the shop.

What exactly are nook miles good for? I’ve purchased all the recipes and the few items I like. Now just infinite trips to a mystery island? I was hoping more things might show up at the terminal.

Do you have the upgraded Resident Services building? Once you get it there will be a bunch of new stuff added, including a voucher to sink excess miles directly into money.

Got my wife hooked on this finally, shes never played video games before. Yesterday while I was working she went to a friends island and got me a cool 1.6mil in turnip sales! Then on her profile she caught TWO drat colecanths and a drat oar fish and a snapping turtle. I've never been more proud. It's been like two weeks and we still dont have the Abel sisters store - is there something we're doing wrong? Mabel is finally back today so we're both buying stuff and chatting with her. Other than that I'm moving a building around so i guess i can get Ohare to move in, he's derelicting at the campsite right now,the bum.

I'm in the same boat re: Mabel. I've read some reports that Mabel's stall mostly shows up on the weekends, so I think people who started two weeks ago got shafted by last weekend being double events.

Gonna stop lurking this thread and open up my island while I potter around. Southern Hemisphere. 10am. Nothing of note, but turnips can be bought at 98 each. Mabel is visiting, and the Nooks have a fortune teller set. Selling windflower, rose and mum seeds. Native fruit is apple. Fruit on the trees is fair game. I’m still pretty early on, so I don’t have much, so anything you might want to leave is appreciated! I’m currently working on breeding flowers of all kinds so if anything that would be great.

So what is the difference between flowers grown from seeds and wild growing ones? I moved and watered some wild roses growing on my cliff tops and they spawned my first hybrids, including a purple rose.

Apparently flowers have a full fledged gene system with 3-4 gene pairs per species. Store bought seeds always have the same purebred genes for each color, wild flowers are more random and can have recessive genes.

I'm curious when exactly the patch will drop since a friend said the JP tweets said the 23rd as well.

The Mario Maker 2 patch that was announced for 4/22 was released at 8PM EST last night (equivalent to mid-morning for Japan) so it's probably reasonable to hope for the AC patch to hit around the same time tonight.

I've been keeping track of what I get from balloons since there was debate over how random they were a couple weeks ago, and I have never received Bells except from yellow balloons, or materials except from blue balloons. Pretty sure I've gotten DIY recipes from all of them, though, and possibly furniture and clothing as well.

Also, I'm not totally screwing up barreleyes, right? They're just small fish in regular ocean spots? I've been trying for two evenings now, and I could start my own fishery with all the mackerel I've caught, but no barreleye.

Hey, Drake left me his train set on the way out! What a nice duck. I would miss him more if I didn’t have two other lazy villagers.

On a related note, did somebody mess with Kitt on my island while I was at dinner? I had set Nibbles’s catchphrase, but now Kitt is using the same catchphrase. I double-checked, and Nibbles’s did indeed get set. Is Kitt in general just broken as poo poo?

Villagers just randomly copy custom catchphrases from each other without any input, it's pretty annoying.

Plenty of free stuff on the beach to the right, please liberate us from the scourge of spare DIYs piling up!

Is there any way to tell what's what before you dive, or am I just gonna have to chase all the bubbles in the world until I get a vampire squid?

I saw one tonight!

I saw it fly away, because it was on the tree in front of Nook's, and I was running back to sell some crap :suicide:

The density of bubbles correlates with the size, and you can also observe the behavior when you get close. Stationary creatures are most obvious, but they also have some variation in movement patterns. Vampire squids scoot away quite steadily and give off a medium amount of bubbles; this isn't uniquely identifying but you can winnow out obvious mismatches.

Ok. Need advice. I have three stags left before the end of the month - golden, hercules, giraffe. I don’t think I have even seen them. I hit up a NMI after 7, get rid of everything except palm trees, plant more that I bring with me, and make circuits. Nothing.

Are they really this rare? Is there any thing else I can do to force spawns?

Certain islands have bug spawning restrictions, it's possible you hit an island that's keyed to a different type of bug entirely.

There's at least one NMI that's almost entirely bugs that sit on trees, which makes it really easy to catch any of the stags that you haven't found yet (or the loving scarab :argh:), but it takes a bit of luck to find (it's all hardwood trees except the usual palm trees and has no water.)

So do I understand correctly that the most recently moved in villager will never ask to leave of their own accord? If we want to get rid of the last person who moved in, short of getting an amiibo is there any way to get rid of them that doesn't involve kicking someone else out and inviting a new villager to displace the previous newest one?

That is not correct.

Once you have ten villagers, any of the ten can ask you to move. Brand new villagers can ask to move out --there is no mechanism stopping them. In fact, since your newest villager likely has the lowest friendship level, they have the highest probability of asking.

Data miners disagree :shrug: There are people that have decompiled the probabilities and built calculators for them, they say that the most recently moved in won't ask.

There are certain patterns they follow but they're essentially random, later is not necessarily better.

You can also go to mystery islands and find the occasional non-native fruit island.

Unless they changed it in a recent update, you will only ever be able to get 1 type of non-native fruit from mystery islands (not counting coconuts), they're all either your native fruit or the 1 designated non-native fruit.
