Nookways opened today, and he's having a 50% off sale this evening. A writing desk, a pyramid, and two other things I don't care about are in there. Turnips are crap, though.

I definitely want the pyramid, since I am already flossing with a Crown. My turnips are now at 94 bells (up from 64 from this morning), which could be a good sign. Hopefully they will jump up even higher tomorrow.

Crunch, you should get that chair anytime, I sent all three the same day. If you don't get it by tomorrow, I'll just send another one.

I still need to visit the Prof sometime to toss him his goodies as well.

I know, I still haven't seen you on yet.

I'm trying to finish off the Robo series. If anyone wants to trade, I have;

Robo-Bed
Robo-Sofa
Robo-TV
Robo-Clock
Floor
Wall

I need;

Robo-Dresser
Robo-Closet
Robo-Chair
Robo-Table
Robo-Stereo
Robo-Lamp

I need the Robo-Clock! I have everything you need except for the Robo-Closet (Warddrobe?) I probably need more lab stuff (is there a lab clock? dresser? wardrobe? lamp? Don't send any of that stuff even if it exists yet - I tend to forget what I have... let me check first :-), but also would now like to start building some other sets. Do you have any other collections of furniture? I'd like to start perhaps the cabana set, or something like that. I have the cabana dresser and the cabana screen and need everything else, if there is anything else. In any case I'd be happy to order you the robo-dresser, chair, table, stereo and lamp. Just let me know. Then you can order me the robo-clock and we'll figure out what else you can get me in exchange. Too bad there isn't a 5x points sale now. Speaking of which, is it possible to order from your catalog in someone else's town?

Thanks, Romeo, for opening your town last night, though it was a mystery where the big fish were. At least I caught a couple tuna and a football fish. I hope I didn't jinx the charm by catching a second bitterling. Do extras break the charm? I'm also wondering what effect the charm will have if do still have it.

EDIT: others are trying to get robo stuff too, so probably I should only give you some of the stuff you need, as I think they also need the robo-clock. So, I'll wait for them to chime in....

EDIT2: Ok, so only Darkpumpkin has taken me up on one of these King Tut Masks and now I'm loaded down with them. What do I have to do? Have a blue light special? Surely you can't all already have King Tut Masks, can you? Come on, at least offer to make me a half-decent homemade pattern or two in exchange. I'll accept! :)

Was up a little early today and decided to check turnip prices before heading to work...but Nook still had his tanuki arse in bed. #-o

So...turnip prices this evening...post 'em if ya got 'em, please. :)

cruchewy, I guess I can help you out w/ one of those Tut masks. I'll have to see what I have that I can trade, I think I may have a couple pieces from the cabana furniture set.

I'm mainly looking for items from the exotic and Japanese furniture sets. Here's the ones I don't have:

Japanese set:
Screen
Hibachi
Paper Lantern
Paulownia Closet
Stair Dresser
Low Screen
Paper Tiger
Lucky Frog
Bow
Black Katana
White Katana
Ninja Sword
Deer Scare

Exotic set:
Exotic Bureau
Exotic Chair
Exotic Table
Exotic End Table
Exotic Screen
(can't recall if I already have the rug and wall)

I also like the bonsai set (anyone see a theme?). Don't have:

Bonsai set:
Ponderosa Bonsai
Pine Bonsai
Mugho Bonsai
Holly Bonsai
Azalea Bonsai
Maple Bonsai
Hawthorn Bonsai
Quince Bonsai

I may have to verify this list is correct before anyone starts offering me anything...these lists are based on what I remember owning and I haven't had enough caffeine yet this morning.

Also, I think my kids might have a few of these, if I can talk them into buying them for me. Which they should, since I pay their mortgages.

Also...anyone have any Lucky Cats?

I'll try to put together a list in the next few days of what I have in my catalog...and what my kids have.

darkpumpkin and Interstella...I mailed all your items last night. Hope they arrive safe and sound.

Alright Crunch, I'll send you a robo clock as soon as I get one from Crook's.

I didn't realize there was a robo closet, I guess I'll need one too.

Eug, As soon as we meet up and can start mailing each other, I'll get you the ninja sword and some bonsai plants (only missing 3 I believe).

I forget who was collecting the chess pieces, but I've got a Black & White Bishop both in my Nookington's today. As well, I know there were a few of you that wanted the Lovely collection, and there is a Lovely Lamp in Nookington's also.

Turnips were only in the mid 60's today, so I'm hoping for the Wed night spike like last week.

Here's my want list, since it appears to be the trend of the day...

I'm way late to the party and just started playing this last night. Assuming I get engulfed by this item-collecting madness that everyone here seems to suffer from, I'll post my info here. For others to visit your town, do you have to have the game up and running? Or is there a way to use WiiConnect24? (sorry if this is a stupid question)

Go into that building right where your bus stop is, the gates, and you have to talk to the dog guard on the right to open your gates if you want people to come in. If you want to go out, you ask him to search for open gates. You have to have the game on and running for people to visit back and forth.

Feel free to add your info to the list in my signature, and let anyone know if you added them so they can add you too. It's a mutual agreement, so if you add them and they don't add you, you don't get anywhere.

For others to visit your town, do you have to have the game up and running? Or is there a way to use WiiConnect24? (sorry if this is a stupid question)

You have to have the game running to let people visit. You can enable WiiConnect24, however, to allow for delivery of mail, and I think other stuff (DLC from Nintendo?) I'm not really sure what it's used for to tell the truth, but I think it can help speed up mail delivery to and from friends. Don't quote me on it. You enable WiiConnect24 via the telephone beside your bed.

You need to get and share your friend code and you need to enter other people's friend codes before you can visit/be visited. To get a friend code you must talk to the guard on the right at the gate and select the Friend Code option. Once you have some other peoples FCs entered and they have yours entered, you can let people into your town by opening your gate. You do that by talking to the same guard. You go out by talking to him as well.

I'm maintaining a list of active AC:CF players. Post your FC info here and I'll add you to the list. Use the format you see in that list. You'll probably want to add people on the active list as well. See my signature for a link to that list normally, but I'll post it here as well for your convenience in case you have signatures hidden (like I do!):

I still have Kilraven's robo-stereo as well. I might just pass it to crunch and see if he could mail it.

Also, my turnip price this afternoon is 130 bells. I am really hoping that it goes up tomorrow or someone here has a better price, because 28 bell profit, while better than a lose, is not that appealing.

And on a side note I got my fountain yesterday, so today I throw my first axe in and got a sliver one. First try, how about them apples?

Crunch, how much do you want for a tut mask?

It'll be at least 5 hours before I can check turnip prices...unless I call my kids after they get home from school and have them check. If they load up AC:CF at all.

My charm has changed. It's still about trees but I don't want you guys to accidentally ruin my perfect town status! I'll update it once the 15 day waiting period is over.

And If I can keep everything in order here

CL-Insanity, we need to reunite those cats. I have the kitten so I'll need to visit your town.

Janet was kind enough to bring me my fossils. Now all I need whatever is between the amber and the Peking man and I am all done.

That would be the Fern Fossil which I just got today :bouncy:

I'm mainly looking for items from the exotic and Japanese furniture sets. Here's the ones I don't have:
Minus what Ash has offered you, I have the:

Stair Dresser
Bow
Black Katana

Exotic Bureau
Exotic Chair

Ponderosa Bonsai
Pine Bonsai
Maple Bonsai
Hawthorn Bonsai
Quince Bonsai

If you want me to order them just let me know. Nook closes at 9 PM central.

As far as wants, if you guys could keep an eye out for the:

Ranch Chair (redd item)
Cabin Chair (redd)
Cabin Wardrobe (nook)
Mama Panda (redd)
Firebar (Mario item)
Blue bed (redd)
Blue Table (redd)
Blue Bookcase (nook)
Blue Flooring (nook)

I'd really appreciate it :D

Fossils Ankylosaur Tail Iguanodon Head Tyrannosaurus Rex Head Apatosaur Tail Seismosaur Torso Shark Tooth Archaeopteryx

I still have the Iguanadon Skull, T Rex Skull, Seismo chest and Shark Tooth.
-
Crunchewy, the Mad Scientist theme has only 9 pieces.
Lab Wall
Lab Floor
Lab bench
Lab Chair
Amazing Machine
Florence Flask
Medicine Chest
Unknown Machine
Complex Machine

And on a side note I got my fountain yesterday, so today I throw my first axe in and got a sliver one. First try, how about them apples?

That is so unfair :rofl:

Sorry, we got hammered by scary winds and bad storms, so I lost my connection for a good while.

Matt, I ordered your modern sofa, desk and wardrobe. The total is 7,271 bells. Just subtract however much the lovely lamp is off from that.

Eugaet, I can either order all of those items for you or you can just let me know which ones you want. I get a discount, so for everything I have that you want, the total would be 20, 984 bells.

Janet, sadly I do not have anything you need at this time, but I will keep looking for you!

Romeo, I will take you up on what I need. Matt is sending me the lamp and Janet is sending me the end table. Right now, I have the table, loveseat, armoire and chair. So I need everything else in the set.

Ended up taking the night off from AC (for the most part...loaded it up long enough to water my red turnip, check turnip prices, and see what was in Nook's/Able's/recyc/L&F). Was just way too exhausted after work. I'm sorry, I'll try better next time...

darkpumpkin, I'll go ahead and send you 21000 bells. After I receive those, I'll take a look at what I still want and check what everyone else has. Trying to keep this from getting too confusing.

CL, I'm certain my son has the white knight and black king. I'll reg you tonight and then see if I can get them ordered.

If you want to play it safer in the future, you can do what I have done in the past, when you get a somewhat OK price like 130, sell enough of your turnips to get your money back and no more. Then you are left with turnips that will be all profit. Even if the price drops after that they'll still be all profit, and if prices go up, you'll still get to take advantage, albeit not quite as much. It's a cowards way, but it works. :)

I can open it right now if you want, if you can get in before 4. Also, I won't be around, as I'm playing WoW instead. Nooks is fully stocked save for a round floor I bought this morning, and my neighbors have actually been asking for you.

My bad, I really thought Nookway & Able's had the same hours.

Wow, 455 is a great price!

Just found this info on how to predict what your turnip prices will be like:

http://www.wiipals.net/Forum/f28/hey-guys-wanna-know-how-to-predict-your-turnip-prices-50508.html

I think mine has been a rollercoaster week this week, and in another town I've been in every day, they've had a steady decline.

This is interesting. Unfortunately, due to work, I can't check prices in the morning during the week, so I can't put this into practice. Too bad there isn't a way to play AC:CF remotely.

It's been two days for me without AC:CF. Last night it was because I fell asleep early. Prof - sorry about the delay in getting your King Tut Mask out. I will definitely get it to you tonight! Daisy - if I see you I'll give you your green bookcase if applecrisp hasn't already gotten you one, or can mail it. I don't need to order one as I already have it.

I believe I now have Nookingtons in my town. Nook was upgrading yesterday, I'm pretty sure. 9 PM closing time is for the birds, but so is the 9 AM opening time as I was thinking I'd just set the clock back an hour to compensate for the closing time, but then my kids would be quite unhappy since they play on Saturday/Sunday mornings and their morning game time ends at 10 AM. Yes, they would be very unhappy. I wish there could be both a Nook & Go and Nookingtons at the same time, instead of one or the other. On the other hand, I guess having gotten the charm from oemor's town, maybe I'll see some good items, if I can get there before it's closed! And if that's what the charm did. ???

PhoenixAZ

02-13-2009, 11:59 AM

I too have been debating if I should change the time on my game because Nookington's is only open 9am-9pm. I like to sometimes play in the morning like at 6 or 7 am, pick up the fossils, pull the weeds, hit the money rock, etc. If I moved the time 3 hours earlier, then it'd essentially close @ 6pm in the evening, which is pretty early, but it would give me some time yet. I guess I could always go out to another town if I needed a Nooks in the evening too. There would be other disadvantages though, like Joan showing up between 3am-9am.

There should be one more upgrade after Nookington's, and I like your idea Crunch. They should make an additional Nook N Go or Nook's Cranny for expansion.

alison

02-13-2009, 12:50 PM

Nookington's is one of the main reasons that I changed my time to reflect a 3 hour difference (i.e. 9 pm here is 6 pm AC time). I typically play in the evenings (and I'm the only one in the house that plays), so this works out perfectly for me. Now, my Nookington's is in the process of being downgraded, but I'll probably keep this time change for the time being.

With that said, hopefully some folks have their gates open tonight. The downgrade is happening today, so I'm Nookless :(

Or do like I suggested before, and when there is a price like 200 bells, sell enough to make back what you paid for your turnips, and keep the rest in reserve in case their is a big spike. Even if prices go down, you'll still do well and if there is a big spike, you'll do great. Mind you, the last time there was a 230 range price, I sold all my turnips, so I'm not too good at taking my own advice. :)

That's what we've been doing, it's kind of like bell cost averaging.

I've got a Lunar Lander in my Nookington's, it's a special item, so it seems like someone should be interested.

Also, the Lovely Lamp came in, sorry for the delay Becky. Let me know if you'll be on and we can exchange.

I'm definitely going to be playing sometime tomorrow afternoon, what with my sweetie giving me that nifty wireless keyboard that I'll want to test out. :) Hopefully I'll find someone online. Anyway, can pay with bells or King Tut Masks!

Fishing tournament happenings:

- Son woke up early, had caught a sea bass at 45.x inches.
- I caught a tuna at 92.x inches, reduced my son to tears because he said he would never find another tuna...
- He immediately catches a tuna at 100.x inches and order is restored.
- I'm still suffering a nervous twitch from watching Chip devour 14000 bells worth of tuna.

At my parent's house now, most likely not able to do any more fishing until the tournament is over.

Also, sold my red turnip (payed 1000 bells) for 16000 bells. Not sure if that's good or not, first time messing w/ red turnips.

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!

I did play some more and got a sea bass that took the lead and was super happy to get the neutral corner to go along with my blue corner. Just need the other corners now. One of my kids turned in a pike he had in his house to take lead after me. Hopefully he'll win with that. We tried a fair amount and never caught anything bigger then a sea bass.

I had the lead with a 47 inch sea bass until Gala came in with a 74 inch tuna. :bomb: I already have the two fishing trophies, but wanted to get trophies for my other characters too.

I did play some more and got a sea bass that took the lead and was super happy to get the neutral corner to go along with my blue corner. Just need the other corners now.

I think you only need the red corner to complete a boxing ring. The neutral corner can be used twice, facing different directions. I think the red corner is a Redd item.

Romeo, thanks for the wall!

Eugaet, I hope everything comes your way shortly. I haven't gotten the bells yet either. I hope because everything was such a big order that its taking some time to get there.

The F13 remake was meh. Just meh. This was the first time I let myself get pumped up for a remake/reboot and I was so dissapointed with the end result. It's essentially The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake with Jason replacing Leatherface. Understanding since there is the same director, same production company and some of the same actors even.
The film flew by before I even knew it, but it seemed like they were trying to cram way too much mythology from the first three movies into this one. Not even two minutes into the film and Mrs. Voorhess gets decapitated. Then Jason has his burlap sack mask for about 15 minutes. Then suddenly he finds the hockey mask, and the way he is first shown with it is no where near as effective in part 3
The kills aren't even that exciting. He's essentially just machete happy and loses a lot of the creativity he displayed in previous entries. Still, he's a bit smarter in this one.
If you do opt to see it, let me know if you think Jason is a pot farmer? I'm still wrapping my mind around this.

I know the current hDLC won't destroy the game...I've done my research, but thanks for the reminder. It couldn't have hurt if the hDLC didn't look like ****, though.

Sure, right now the risks are low. Whether it stays that way in the future remains to be seen. I really don't know...but apparently you two do. It comforts me to know that y'all are in possession of crystal balls that can see exactly what the future holds in regards to AC:CF and hDLC.

Well I AM animal crossing after all ;) . Also, there are technically 256 hex slots for new items but within those there is actually the ability to hold thousands of items, which is why I said there wont be a concern because if they manage to release thousands of items at a rapid rate, you shouldnt worry because theyll probably suck if they can fill that many slots so fast

Hey, thanks for posting the math for others who haven't done the research. If that was for my benefit, though, I'm not sure why you'd waste the time...I already know that! :D

Luckily, no one else will ever figure out how to release AC:CF hDLC because that would be impossible! And worrying about impossibilities is silly! Because they'll never happen! And I really like exclamation points tonight! Do you like exclamation points, georox? Oh damn, that was a question mark! I'm going to PM you some exclamation points right now!!!

Ahem...also, I'm going long on the turnips again this week so let's hope for some good prices. I may look into the whole averaging thing.

EDIT: Ah, Filler replied while I was posting. Yeah...256 slots, thousands of possible item codes, I know all this. Unfortunately (for my schedule, I had other things to do), I spent multiple hours on multiple days researching AC:CF hDLC and how it might affect me...but mainly how it might affect my kids, since they play as much, if not more, than I do. If one person figured out how to do it...then someone else can, too. And those slots can fill up with illegitimate **** pretty quick if things get out of control. Right now, it's not much of an issue, though.

My reasons for disliking hDLC are more ethical right now, however.

EDIT EDIT: Wait, you are Animal Crossing? Sweet! Come on, man, you've got to do something about those Nookington's hours! Not looking forward to that upgrade! [Glad to see some humor in your response, Filler. :)]

I agree that avoiding the hacked DLC, at this point, is pretty much futile. In fact, I'm pretty sure we all have it now, and a big reason for that, and this is my issue, is Filler. Filler is a person who repeatedly felt the need to tell us how tired he was of the game and how he was going to sell it, and perhaps even his Wii, yet did not do so. He continues to state that he's going to sell the game. Then when he got the hacked DLC, presumably because he had reached "don't care" state and figured, "why not?", and found out that it spread so easily, rather then doing what he'd said he'd do all along, or at least wiping his town and thus avoiding spreading it among CAGs, he instead chose to hold contests with his "most insane prizes ever". And now he's giving away millions of bells. So, yeah, I'm not a big fan.

I love how you hate me so much but havent actually said anything to me directly XD. Good job making accusations though, not so great on following through. You want to know the truth? I havent even been to anyones town on CAG since the event, Ive been mostly getting bells to distribute among CAG for when I do finally get a seller (left a few ads on CL). I have amassed another 10 million for CAGs needs also. Crunchewy, I think you are what makes this thread so silly at times.

PS. If any of you guys are infected, it was not me, and it isnt really being infected at all.

I am glad to hear that no CAGs took you up on your "cut all my trees down and trash my town", nor your "fishing tournament with most insane prizes ever" events, either of which would have resulted in spreading the hacked DLC. If that's the case, then avoiding the hacked DLC may not be as futile as I imagined. At least not yet.

i'd definitely like that axe. if you put it up on the auction, i'll certainly put in a bid. but if you do it outside the auction house. i'd put in an initial bid of 25,000 bells. but i'd certainly be willing to go up.

do remember how you got serena to give you the axe? i've been failing miserably all winter to get anything out of her.

I got the silver axe the other day. If i can remember correctly, I told Serena that I can tell that she looks different today and i put the slider up when she asked me to judge her.

Just by telling her I threw in a regular axe.

So, is there any more interest in doing a bid on CAG instead of the auction house?

I finally added two more characters to my town, "Closet" and "Garage", for storage purposes. I figured those were fitting names, and they can give me two extra chances at the axe in the fountain every day, plus a little extra cash if they hit up a money rock or the special events. That will also give me three different characters to try the three different paths with Serena (gold axe, silver axe, plain axe).

I think I am in for a rollercoaster week on turnips. Yesterday I had them at 114 already, which seemed very high for a Monday. Then today they are down to the low 60's this morning and like 53 this afternoon. I'm hoping for a big return this week as I have over 700,000 in bells of turnips and I'm looking to get the lighthouse and help pay off my wife's mortgage yet.

I will try to do that tonight, but may not get to do so until tomorrow night. The only other thing I did was to check the turnip price (last night), which was 60 bells. Ouch.

I doubt that could be the problem, they let you send 10 letters at a time. I think I sent the 21k bells a little before you sent everything to me...so hopefully it'll show up today or tomorrow.

I'm new to the fountain thing, so do you only get one try a day? I told her I threw in a regular axe, she thanked me for being honest and threw it back. Tried throwing another one in, no dice. :(

Also, do you have to donate all 1 million bells at once or can you do a little at a time?

PhoenixAZ

02-19-2009, 03:34 PM

DarkPumpkin, congrats on the Lovely Phone, that's pretty cool.

On the fountain, you only get one shot per day per villager. That's part of the reason I created additional villagers for my town, to have additional shots at the axe. I used up all my axes pretty quickly though, so now I'm just down to one axe per day if Nookington's carries it. The other thing that is beneficial with multiple villagers is taking a different path on the axe with Serena every day. I have my main character as the honest one, then the other two characters say the Gold and Silver individually. One of them has to pay off eventually. I need to buy some axes in bulk though. I'd gladly pay 1000 bells per axe if someone can sell me some.

On the town fund, you just have to donate a total of 1M bells. I did my last 400K last night and they had the voting process for the Windmill/Lighthouse today.

Congrats on the gold watering can janet. I really hate trying to get that perfect town rating. I just want to make my town the way I want it.

It would help though if people stopped running in my town and killing my grass

i've got to make a comment on the grass.

lately i've been paying once a day for less then a half hour. i've done this for a couple months now. and i never run. and the grass still doesn't go back. and then i'll go 2 or 3 days without playing, and a bunch of grass will grow back.

i believe very strongly that grass growing and running aren't as connected as we once thought.

and also, grass shouldn't effect a perfect town rating. that i know of.

I was doing some TT to test a theory I had on bare trees (fur trees, trees without fruit) and inadvertently got my golden watering can about a week sooner. It's cool to have it, and I'm still going to keep my town perfect anyway. I didn't realize that when you TT forward and then back to your original time it keeps the changes after you went forward. For example, I had done shake downs on a bunch of trees and left the contents on the floor and when I TT'd back to the current time, it was still there.

To answer your gold card question, it does not do anything other than do what I guess are bragging rights, which I find kind of funny because you cant actually show people you have it besides dropping it. IMO the cards are pretty useless themselves because with the ABD in the city, you can easily withdraw and deposit on the spot.

Also, if anyone wants to see something really awesome, check out my new 4x4 mural:

I asked my brother if he got the white king from last week and he just gave me a dumb stare. So he doesn't have any, sorry. He's more interested now in collecting the Mario Set. He's got almost everything except the Koopa Shell and the Green Pipe, because me and my other brother have them.

Damn! I got greedy and lost out on my axe! Serena asked what I thought about her and I was honest. Then she said she would reward me. I asked for a silver axe and no dice. She kept my axe. A-hole.

Perhaps AC:CF based Serena off this? If so, perhaps all the speculation about telling the truth to her may be correct after all?

Mine haven't been above 57 this week.

To get your friend code, go to the gate at the top of your town and talk to the guard dog on the right.

As for turnips, sorry. Mine are 64 today.

If anyone's played any of the previous Animal Crossings, does it feel to anyone else like it's a LOT harder to get pictures from the neighbors now? It's been a month, I've only turned on one of my neighbors and buttered up everyone else, but no one's given me their pictures yet.

I've got two extra golden watering cans for my two extra characters in my town if anyone wants one. I need the Mammoth Skull and the last fossil on the top right shelf if someone wants to trade. I'm not sure if it covers more land or what exactly, so it's not as beneficial as some of the other golden tools.

...That would definitely explain things. Well if those are gone, what the hell have I been nice to these gossipy dimwits for?

Converse - I still owe you for the lunar lander! Sorry about that! I'll send the funds off today.

Speaking of which, my youngest bought the moon from Kody via the Flea market for about half price, a little over 15k.

Converse, I wouldn't mind one of the gold watering cans...but I don't have either fossil you're looking for (top right is a coprolite). I'll do some digging...and see if anyone is selling one today at the flea market (one of my neighbors used to have a mammoth skull).

Bought a ton of turnips at 92 bells each today.

Turnips cost 107 for me today - rippoff! :)

My kids are having a lot of fun with the flea market. I've done OK, but haven't sold as many fish as I'd have liked so far, though in retrospect, I probably more need to unload furniture I'm not using anyway, as my closet is overflowing. Hopefully I can sell my other stringfish and my 2 football fish and one red snapper, though, before it is over. Will residents who have visited come back again later or is it once per? I accidentally blocked myself in when Maelle came in and didn't get to sell to her. Oops. I'm hoping she'll come back later.

Don't worry about it, I made a killing in turnips last week, so a few bells is a drop in the bucket for me. I probably owed you for something anyway :)

I was wrong, it's not the coprolite, it's the Archaeopteryx, and besides the mammoth head I need the Ankylosaur Tail as then my fossils are done! I saw in a later post that you got the Mammoth Skull, and I'll be online in about 1 hour so check your gate and we can swap out for the golden watering can.

I guess I'm done with the flea market for today. No more animals will come into my house even though there are different ones that are outside now than this morning.

Made 471,476 Bells with one character, but could've made a little bit more if I sold one more thing to Stitches. I still have a bunch of fish left in my house.

My other characters don't really have anything to sell.

Joan was selling turnips for 100 earlier. Speaking of turnips, I found this site that helps you decide when is the best time to sell your turnips. Seems to work pretty well. I tried entering in the numbers I was tracking for turnips last week and it worked good enough... except in one town it suggested to sell a day too early. Here's the link to the Stalk Market Wizard:

I won't be on again until tomorrow night, because I have spent the weekend with my mom. I had so much crap to pack to have with me for the baby, that I figured I would just leave the Wii until I came back to my apartment. My fiancee was supposed to log on and buy some turnips and do the flea market for me.

I'm going to give the axe a few more shots, but yes, I am interested in buying it from you Paul.

Nice! :applause: You must have saved up a ton of fish! This was the first flea market where I really sold fish. I made out OK, but storing them is too much of an inconvenience. Sending letters and being friendly a couple of days before helped me to get nearly 3x their worth from every villager that visited.

Yeah, I had so much fish in my house. Someone commented that it looked like a pet store on my first floor when they visited my town. :lol: I was getting close to 3x Nook's buying price too. I think that's the last flea market where I'll be selling stuff. It's too much work to move all my furniture out of the way (especially since I'm out of storage) just to set up a bunch of fish.

I just did Festivale tonight in another town with someone on my friend's list who's in Malaysia. It takes so much longer to get furniture from Pavé than getting it from someone like Jingle. You have to play games with your villagers and if you lose, they take something from your pockets or 500 Bells. If you win, you get a piece of candy. You need 3 pieces of a specific colored candy to get 1 piece of furniture.

What we ended up doing was laying out all our candy in front of Pavé and just sharing it with each other. Then we'd have our separate piles of furniture/wallpaper/flooring and any dupes would either go in the dupe pile or in the pile of whoever needed the piece.

After about 3 hours, we only had 1 complete set between the three people who were in the town. The other two of us were both missing 1 piece and we had a whole bunch of dupes. Really a big pain in the butt to get a complete Pavé set. I hope I can get the last piece I need once Festivale starts in my town.

So it can be done on wifi. Looks like we need to get some attack groups going :D

Which piece do you need Miranda?

Miranda

02-23-2009, 06:50 AM

Yup, you can do Festivale on wifi. Here are some tips:

- trap your outdoor animals. The closer you can get them to the town hall the easier it'll be than having to go all over your town to find them to try to win candy from them. Also be sure that at least one person is holding their shovel in case anyone else accidentally kicks in a hole and sets an animal free.

- empty your pockets, wallet (unless you don't mind losing money), and letter attachments... the letters will be used for temporarily storing any candy you might win (if it's attached to a letter, they won't try to win it from you since they can't see it)

- collect as many shells/fruit as possible or any other worthless items you don't care about losing. The animals didn't seem to want to try to win pitfall seeds from me, so there might be some other things that you won't be able to put on the line in a game.

- if each person holds onto their own candy, it takes a little longer to get piece of furniture, so having an organized & shared collection of candy right near Pavé might help everyone get furniture faster. Just take turns with who will be the next person to give Pavé the candy he (yes, Pavé is a guy... LOL) wants.

I think there might be some sort of logic the NPC's use when they play rock-paper-scissors. If you win the first game (let's say you did ROCK and they did SCISSORS), in the next round I think the NPC will try to use something that's effective against what you won round 1 with. So since they'll probably try to do PAPER next to beat ROCK, go with SCISSORS. I haven't really figured out what their pattern is when they win the first round or when there's a draw the first round. You have to win at least two rounds of r-p-s, so if you win the first round, the second round is usually easier to predict. Or it might be just luck that I won those. I think it's just random.

For the "guess which hand the candy is in" types of games, I usually won those by picking the same hand for both rounds.

There were other types of games, but I think they're mostly random with how you win them.

I'm not sure which piece I needed. I'll check the next time I turn the game on.
