I just ran into nbballard's town. The chef hat (and now the entire chef outfit) is mine, and I finally figured out I'd been planting coconuts in the wrong place. Didn't take any fossils or anything else, though - just the coconuts. Short stint of the game over; time to hit the sack.
You get the gold and silver tools from Tom Nook, right? I haven't found any of them yet.
[quote name='crunchewy']I have a question about sharing friend codes and sharing the game with your kids. I would like to open the flood gates for myself, while not opening the flood gates for my kids, but given that things like letters sent get repeated by residents, if I share my friend code with others and some bozo sends a letter with language and such I'd rather my kids not read, would they then see it via this mechanic of the game even though it came as part of sharing *my* friend code and not theirs?
Perhaps this doesn't even make sense - I'm not an expert on this game. I just know that in the game the residents talk about how they like to read letters that others have sent them and that when you share friend codes, you can send letters to other peoples towns.[/QUOTE]
I wouldn't worry about it. Admittedly, I've only been playing for a week or so, but I haven't had a letter shared with me yet. When they
did share letters in the GameCube version, there would usually be one letter a character would show over and over.
Possible, yes, but I wouldn't worry about it. If you'd like, you could make that a condition of adding people to your friends list - I can't imagine anyone here would disagree.
