I have a meteor shower in my town right now. Does that mean anything special?
If I remember right from Wild World, if you can tap yourself in time, you make a wish and you get a present in the mail the next day.

Holy moly, turnips are worth 512 bells here! All that work selling my turnips for ~350 at jdm's gf's town... haha.
I'd let you guys in but my brother is kinda antsy about who I let into his town. I can't really do anything about it (well I can, but.. to make a long story short, he's special and makes huge deals about small things). He said I can let people in if I charge a fee. Haha, any takers?
IS YOU STILL LETTING PEOPLE IN TO COME CAN HAZ SELL TURNIPZ?

What's everyones limit on buying turnips? I don't mean how many you'll buy, but the price. This week Joan sold them to me for like 106 and last week was 104..:lol: I think anything more than 115/120 is too much.
shinryuu

Closed up town. Might be on again later today, but don't know if the prices will be different by then.
Also, 120 for white turnips from Joan is pushing it, and I certainly wouldn't pay more than that. I think I paid around 105 last Sunday.

What happened to the stuffed bear at the auction house? I was going to bid on it and now it's gone :cry:
Also, Ed finally moved out. If this works the same like Wild World then he should transfer over to the next person I visit. If they don't have an open space available then he transfers to whoever they visit until he finds a place to stay. I wonder where he'll end up :lol:

Paid off my 2nd mortgage a few hours ago, so now I should have a bigger house tomorrow. I don't know what comes next. I believe it's just more room for the current floor, right?
Anyways, I still need Pears and Oranges. Does anyone have Pears and Oranges in their town right now so I can come over and get some?

But it was the Papa Bear. I think there are just two many 4-square items at the auction house so they're not all being displayed?
If you wouldn't mind ordering them for me, I can pay you for them. Are you the one with the Japanese items in your house? I have the Black Katana if you want it.

Yeah, you gotta love how neighbors will ask for things you can't get them, of if you did, you gotta donate it. I can't tell you how many neighbors wanted a tuna :roll:
I've also run in to getting doubles and triples of fossils, which surprised me considering that's never happened in Wild World to me. Maybe they made fossils seasonal :-k

Strell, I can trade that Peking Man for a Sabertooth torso if you need it. I also have a few others but can't remember what they are right now...
Also, how the hell does the Redd invite work? Someone yesterday in Strell's town (Jeff) gave me a Redd invite but he still doesn't let me in. I can make a letter out of it, but if I try to send it to myself I can't select it for mailing at the post office. Did Jeff have to mail it to me for it to work? I guess I can see if I can mail it to one of the kids and let them get in... In any case, then, I still need one.

That's a shame :cry: Your town is so pristine. When I visited, I was afraid to run and tear up the ground. Hopefully they didn't take too many flowers and you can rebuild, but most of us here do not act like that.
Nesster of Nowhere was my attacker.....
I met Nesster through Wa-Keen. He gave me a cool Mr. Saturn pattern, but I don't think he's from CAG. If he's doing things like that then he's certainly not on my friend list anymore.

Did anyone get the Wii Speak Channel today? I just got it and I think my Wii Speak might have some trouble. I had to turn the sound up to 18 (started at 6, then to 8, then to 10) to get it to work. Even then I didn't get the best score.
Um...You know the 360 dashboard? It kinda works like that...only worse. It doesn't tell you what games people are in. You don't get any indication if you send them an invite or not, but it's kinda like the 360 dashboard...only worse.

It's a lost kitten that can appear in your town after you use wifi. She keeps crying and talks about wanting to go home to see her Mom. You have to visit the town she mentions to take her back home. Or you get the Mom in your town whining about her lost kitten. It's annoying but you get a gift after you take the kitten home.

CAG AC:CF Secret Santa 2008
Yup. You heard me right. We are doing our very own secret santa on CAG for Animal Crossing: City Folk (got the idea over on another AC board). The rules are:
*You must PM me by the 13th of December (Next Saturday)
*PM type of gifts you would and would not enjoy to recieve
*You must be on OP (updating tomorrow, finally)
*There is no min. or max., but don't be cheap to your fellow cheapass. Get them something fairly decent.
*No sending bells, it is not very creative and shows little thought put into your fellow CAG.
* You may send it by mail or in person, though it would be nice to send it with a nice letter.
*You will be PMd your giftees FC on either the 13th or 14th and the other person will be PMd yours (but not name or town, as it wouldn't be "secret" enough ;))
*Final date to send is December 24th.
*Other banned items: Fossils, Flowers, Fruit, Gyroids (Unless you specifically ask for these things)
*Don't ask for hard to find items like the royal crown, be fairly general with it (ie Lab furniture)
Also, send my PM in the following format:

I've been doing this and now I have a question: if you have the full house expansion, will adding feng shui to all the floors have triple the effect?

FallMoon

Each piece of furniture adds points to the feng shui points. I guess they are like lucky points. So, you should try to squeeze in as many points as possible if you really care about it. Or just make it blend in with the furniture set! Like, let's say you have a jingle set, you should add a christmas tree in the lower right corner. It would look nice and give you points.

I'm just sort of trying to get stuff to grow right now so I can fully go for a Perfect Town in a couple of weeks.

Same here. I got a bunch of non native fruit growing and just got some coconuts from Memphis last night. ;) Im trying to get a bunch to rake in cash and have some for storage when i want to map out my town and fix it up real nice. Only problem is i dont know if trees die if you plant them where a house could end up if a villager moved in? Plus i dont want to block an area where i could put a fountain or lighthouse at by planting trees in the way of a good spot. Hmmm.

Plus i dont want to block an area where i could put a fountain or lighthouse at by planting trees in the way of a good spot. Hmmm.
Too bad making a perfect town doesn't make the town look nicer. I think it looks ugly with too many trees, since I was just trying to make a perfect town. It's kind of hard to plant trees correctly, near where a neighbor could move in, that is. It will die if it is planted where the house would be located. Some spots around the sign will allow plants to grow, but others won't. You should test it out.

There is an unlockable gyroid storage room located in the Roost (Brewster/K.K. Slider/Museum Area) that will be accessible if you order and successfully drink 7 coffees (must be hot and on separate days for 7 days) from Brewster (make sure you have a gyroid in your inventory) and talk to him at the side of the bar, he will take any and all gyriods but he will not take duplicates(if you have more than one tall lullaboid for example). This gyroid room is displayed as a list of the gyroids you have collected.

Well damn. It just reeks of fake, and having already had multiple weeks worth of coffee (without a gyroid in my inventory) it seemed dumb. It makes about as much sense as this:

Damn... that's a shame it's not an actual room, it would be cool to have a little display room for your gyroids instead of having to keep them in an inventory.
And I like the idea of this secret room opening up in the cafe, all James Bond like, Brewster would pull the decaf carafe to open it up (since who the hell drinks decaf?)

The Wii Speak channel is actually pretty slick.
Strell
12-06-2008, 08:01 PM
Just wanted to drop by and say I downloaded the Wii Speak Chat Channel.
It's strange. I had 44 blocks open. I try to download it. I can't - I need 51. So I delete an NES game. Now I have 66 blocks open. Then I download it. And then after I'm done, there's 76 blocks open.
Surely conspiracy theorists can dream up fancy explanations for this.
As for the channel itself, it's nice and slick looking. Music is kind of catchy, all the menus are clean and refined. It's as cool looking as it will be useless since no one is going to use it. Which is fantastic, I guess.
It's another one of those "this should have been the case from the damn beginning" sort of things, or it feels like it. Maybe I'll actually test it out soon enough.
Edit@Yukine: Whoa. I checked your status - it said you "couldn't chat." Your circle was sort of grayed out.

Here's something neat about the Wii Speak Channel. I put in Strell's Wii FC # onto my Address list, and through the Wii Speak Channel I was able to see that no, he did not put my Wii FC into his address book, which is under my avatar, like everyone else's.
That's pretty neat.

Kingbroly: Sorry, missed your message. We ended the chat. I'm actually on my way out in a few minutes to take care of a friend's kid.
I'll get your FC up ins my system and we'll check it later.
Impressions: Slick interface, you can share photos which is kinda cool (I tested a few Animal Crossing snapshots), and the voice seems to work. There was some echo on Yukine's end, and we theorize the cause is his surround sound. I have no such fancy audio setup, and he said I was coming through pretty well.
So, again - something that should have been there all along. Nintendo always goes three steps forward and then one or two back.
Also there's a "change voice" button that causes ten seconds of....well, it's an acid trip. This was intensified in that I had a Mitch Hedberg Mii at the time.
KingBroly

I just got out of a chat with someone and there was some echo in there, but you could hear everyone, including yourself. I will say that the Wii Speak Channel makes me sound more like a man than either my PS3 or 360 headset. So +1 to Nintendo for that :)

Knox: I haven't gotten you in my system yet. Sorry! I'll do it tomorrow though. There's still a few dead weight names to get rid of.
Had a lot of fun in Pompeii (Io's place) tonight. Never caught a 'canth, but racked up plenty of robstars and fuutbawz. Dmunkee and GenDV showed up. I filled up my inventory with big ticket fish, went to drop them off, came back, and D was gone. Eventually nbbaballard showed up. Lots of good fun fishing was had by all.
It's late though, and I reached that point where I couldn't tell apart medium and big shadows, and would just go for any near me. This landed me with lots of dabs and olive flounders. :[ But is ok.
Really, really need to do some photo posts here really quick. I've got plenty of small stories and things to tell.
Strell, apparently you are cursed, because right after you left I caught one ;).
I'll have pictures in a bit once I figure out how to transfer them. Are they just pics on the SD card like any other pic?
For now I'm leaving my town open for Nathan to catch one. If anyone else happens to be up come on over whilst it is still snowing!
That little trollop is still caught on our trap. I showed the fish off to her to taunt her a bit while her pimp Moe was busy elsewhere. I'll post that pic when I can ;).

Sometimes, I find myself liking the Animal Crossing avatars/characters more than Miis. They just seem to have more charm to them than Miis do. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy seeing Chuck Norris and Adolf Hitler in various other games, It's just great to see how unique our AC characters look, even though we only get a seemingly small handful of options to choose from.
Anyway, don't mind me, it's late, so I think of crap like this. Carry on.

I missed 3 HUGE shadows- one i drew to early, the 2nd wouldn't ever look at me and swam away, and the 3rd looked at me right as a withdrew my poll.

Ok, so Strell, Nathan, and Daniel (I think - sorry if I messed that up :oops:) were over to catch Coelacanths and after the man whose name I may have screwed up catches one the rest of us are getting frustrated.
Strell then comments on Moe's late night activity and how he needs to get some rest. Then, as chance would have it, we all ended up in the company of this rather overly made-up creature. After the shuvel crew did it's usual bang-up job, I concluded that this was clearly a lady of the night. And that must mean Moe's nefarious late-night shenanigans are clearly that of a pimp out pimpin'. Well, Strell did say upon entry to my town that he was told to be careful out there. It is a rough place, as my bandages can attest ;).
http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/1968/ruu00072nm0.jpg (http://imageshack.us)
Then, back to our regularly scheduled Coelacanth hunt. Strell and Daniel (?) leave and, it turns out, Nathan and I only have a few scant minutes to catch a Coelacanth before it stops snowing at the (oddly-adjusted) hour of midnight (really about 1:15 my time ;)).
http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/383/ruu0008va0.jpg (http://imageshack.us)
So I decide to go back to the little trollop and show her my stuff. Yeah, baby, it's THIS big!
http://img367.imageshack.us/img367/589/ruu00092oa9.jpg (http://imageshack.us)
Then, later, after Nathan leaves, I figure I better free Miranda before Moe returns to dole out some damage for trappin' his ho. But just as I get there, her friend and, clearly, colleague, shows up to see what's happenin'.
http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/7844/ruu00102al2.jpg (http://imageshack.us)
After I free her, the two, who are apparently more than just colleagues in the oldest profession, are overjoyed! If only I had lilboo's pimpin' outfit I would have tossed that stuff on and taken over Moe's turf. The one thing that would have made this sequence pure gold is if Moe had shown up then :lol:.

They are as big as tunas/rays/stringfish. Sea bass are kind of big, but not long. Tunas/rays/canths/stringfish are pretty long, and not fat or thick.

Turnips are 100 here. What's the highest they can be? :-k
Anyway, I'm fine with 100. I ended up getting 1000 :bouncy: Now, let's hope someone get another crazy day where the asking price is 500+ :drool:
If I open my gates, will someone come over real quick.. go to my Nook N Go and like.. buy a pack of paper please? I want this store to upgrade!

Welp, the snow stopped in my town. Anyone on the west coast where its still snowing? I've got plenty of oranges to give.
I bought out 350k worth of turnips, should be pretty helpful even if the highest they go to is in the 200's.

12-07-2008, 11:09 AM
bought over 350k as well of turnips.... Has anyone lost money in the exchange? I'm sure if you were to just use your own Tom Nook it would happen, but with having access to other Tom Nooks it just seems impossible. Is it even possible that no Tom Nook would pay over 120 bells per turnip?

Can you and a visitor to your town both visit the city? I haven't been able to test this but my wife and niece play and say they can't visit the city in either our town or her town.

The basic idea with AC is that anything extra shuts down whenever visitors are around - can't donate fossils, can't put down designs on the ground, can't move furniture in your house when they are in it, etc.
I did have an instance, however, where Sahara showed up in my town along with someone visiting it. I could have sworn she wasn't in it beforehand, and then they came over, and bam - there she was. I could be mistaken, but I'm just so sure she wasn't there.

Ohh damn that sucks. Well its not really blocking the bridge, but her house is right there and it leaves almost no room (one square width) between her house and the river/bridge. Its just annoying.
I still want to add new shirts to my clothes shop cos im tired of villagers wearing those gay clothes, especially when they are men. But im lazy, and dont want to spend the time making the design. Wish there was an easier way, rather then the point and click.

12-07-2008, 03:57 PM
My theory from earlier re: turnip pricing changes (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showpost.php?p=5200423&postcount=1493)
In short, I think it changes at noon and 12 AM. If your Nook's stays open until 1 AM, you can see the price change at that time. However, it carries over to the next day on until noon.
In other words, it'll change at midnight to X. X stays active until noon (a full 12 hours), where it then changes to Y. After 12 hours at midnight, it changes again to Z.
Technically you could argue there are "three" turnip prices a day, but determining the price at midnight will tell you what it'll be in the morning.
This is my theory, and as such requires corroboration.
Oh yea - Friga in my town wants "cool clothes." I figured this meant any clothes. So I bought something cheap from the sisters. She rejected it. So I bought the other two. She rejected these as well. So I took the five backups I have in my house - all rejected. So I went and bought a 6400 Cow shirt from Gracies (since Friga is a short round penguin anyway, I figured it would look funny). She rejected that also.
Am I missing something here?

I know... This could have been a great game, but without GC controller or maybe DS as controller support (among other things) it's just an okay game. :cry: Who was the
FUCKER
who thought it was a good idea to allow no screen pointing necessary, but then made it required in the more crucial parts of the game like pattern design and selecting items? :bomb::bomb: Even making a simple AFK pattern I fucked up like 10 times.
Strell
12-07-2008, 04:01 PM
I can't say this for certain - and this isn't a great solution - but is there a way to design something on the DS and then upload it?
Might be the best alternative at this point.
I do agree - no GC/CC support is retarded. Hell, there should be...half a dozen controller options:
Classic
Gamecube
Wiimote only
'Chuk only
Wiimote + Chuk
DS wirelessly used with some touchscreen capabilities
I could probably think up more if I wanted.

Does the fountain always appear just south of the bus stop?
Also what are the feathers you get by donating?
I can't say this for certain - and this isn't a great solution - but is there a way to design something on the DS and then upload it?
That would be awesome if so. Why couldn't they make the pattern designer be a DS download app? There are really simple, make-sense kinds of things that they utterly failed to do in this game. Sometimes it pisses me off :bomb:. Being able to use the DS for pattern designing would have been a great example of Wii/DS connectivity as well.
I have some great patterns I made in the DS game that I would love to bring over, but oh well...
As for the Nook being open till 1am thing, I don't get it. Is this just something that some people get and others don't? I'm on the third variation of Nook and it has always closed at 10pm. It is highly annoying and that is the main reason I have my clock set back a few hours since I'm nearly always playing after that time. That reminds me, I need to get turnips (after I sell all those fish stored in my house from last night ;)).
