Animal Crossing: City Folk - Gen. Discussion and info

I have 3 spare fossils.
Icthyo torso
Icthyo skull
Plesio torso.

Also I think they fixed the turnip on the table glitch.
In Wild World you could trick them onto a table and leave them rot free.
 
[quote name='itsbigfoot53']when is the best time to sell turinps or when are the prices the highest?
also is it true that if i put them on a box or table they will not spoil?

thanks[/QUOTE]

The turnip table trick doesn't work with this game. I found that out the hard way. :cry:
 
Used wii speak for the first extended amount of time. not that bad but I just cant get over how much damn backround noise it picks up, makes it rather annoying, ah well.
 
thanks for the info so now i am really looking for anyone willing to open their gate and allow selling some turnips hopefully at a high price,

thanks:cry:

thanks for the effort but i just sold mine to my nook for 250 each .
amazing how the prices change in just a moment.
my wife just went to sell hers and its already back down to 150.

thanks again

what? Each store only has 2 prices a day- before noon, and after noon.

If they have Nook N Go it's possible to get three prices.

Morning price
Afternoon price
Price after midnight (which is the same as the next day's morning price)

But on a Saturday night once it turns Sunday @ midnight, Nook should say the stalk market is closed. Hmm.

You can also get a price after midnight at other stores besides Nook N Go if you stay inside Nook's after it closes. This only works if you have your gate open and have visitors currently in your town and you go there right before it closes. Once your visitors leave, Nook will kick you out if you're in there after closing time.
 
Haven't been online much lately, but I've still been taking care of my town. Avocado is growing, slowly but surely. I should really start leaving my gate open when I do play, but the times when I've been able to sit down with my Wii have been random at best. Damn you, classes!

Speaking of that, if anyone's wondering why I'm probably going to disappear again in the near future, check my (impending) blog post.

buttle, I've just realized I never actually entered your code into my game. I'll do that the next time I play. :oops:

If anyone's got any extras of items in the Mario set and wants to trade, let me know - I got an extra block floor from balloons a few days ago. I can even throw in a Red Pikmin hat, if you'd like.

Finally, my TOTALLY SWEET character is better than all of yours. :D

I've got an idea for my next outfit, but I haven't had a chance to make the shirt yet. Let's just say it will be...marvelous.
 
Hey guys, I just got this game and can really use someone to play AC online with. Here's my info...

Name: Edrian
AC FC: 2192-2192-3461
Town Name: Irvine
Fruit: Oranges


Just PM me and I'll register yours; much thanks!


 
i had horrible prices for turnips this whole week, everyday was under 70 bells, today was 32.
As my first time buying, I'm disappointed. I hope this week is much better.
 
Hello everyone! Thanks again to all who added me. I have added you all as well. Sorry I haven't been on in a few days. I ended up having to spend a few days in the hospital because it turned into pneumonia. :(

My gates are open! Please feel free to visit and help yourself to some peaches! I just ask that you send me some of yours later on.

Info again:

Town: Cadeau
Name: Ash
Friend Code: 3910-1235-3914
 
Today my Nookington's FINALLY OPENED! HUZZAH! Also, White Turnips were 95 each, so I grabbed 1500. And to top it all off, Points Special Day! I'll probably go back and buy about...40 more Triforces to get Platinum status. I have quite a ways to go for Platinum (Like 8500 points or something). And I'm almost certain a Gold Axe will be coming my way in a few days. So, it's probably the best day in Animal Crossing history for me.

By the way, how much does the Lighthouse cost donation wise?
 
Hi everyone, I'm new here. Does anyone know if neighbors still give you their pictures in this game? I read somewhere that they don't and that would suck. What is the point of keeping annoying/lame neighbors?
 
That really sucks! That was my favorite part of the game. What's the point of talking to your neighbors now? Also, how do you stop someone from moving out? They are not giving me the option to tell them not to like they did in WW.
 
My first time throwing an axe into the fountain and Serena kept it! I told her I threw in a regular one.

Point special day at Nookway, so I'm going to try to get platinum status today.
 
[quote name='Filler2001']1m after fountain, 1,750,000 over all[/quote]

You do know you only have to donate 700,000 to get to the Fountain, right?
 
[quote name='Filler2001']Miranda, Ive used guides to get it and over a week of constant TTing, got one gold and 2 silver.[/quote]

So is it true that you need a lot of good luck from Feng Shui? And that your neighbors have to be happy with you for better chances at getting a silver/gold axe?
 
[quote name='Miranda']So is it true that you need a lot of good luck from Feng Shui? And that your neighbors have to be happy with you for better chances at getting a silver/gold axe?[/QUOTE]

Neighbors dont affect it but I heard Feng Shui good/bad feng can. If you want the axe after a couple days TTing is the only option sadly
 
I'll just keep trying once a day.

Is it one try a day per town or once a day per character? I'll try with my other two characters if it'll let them throw axes in too. I'll just have to get some good feng shui first.
 
[quote name='ArthurDigbySellers']That is why I take it extremely slow when playing this game. I only play with my wife (usually at night) and we aren't going insane planting a million fruit trees to harvest for an hour to sell to Nook or buying a zillion turnips on Sunday to try to make a huge profit. Trying to get everything in the first month of play is what makes the game unfun, IMO.

We just cash in extra fossils, rare fish, etc., when we have them but generally we just talk to our townspeople, design clothes, etc. When it becomes all about getting your house/Nook's/whatever fully upgraded as fast as possible, it doesn't become a game anymore, it becomes work.[/QUOTE]

No kidding. I play pretty much the same way you do...and I'm still paying off the third mortgage. :lol:

[quote name='Filler2001']There are no pictures and bad neighbors are tougher to kick out then they were last time[/QUOTE]

Somebody still needs to add me to the OP. :nottalking:

My laptops broken. Im typing from my PS3 with a USB keyboard
 
Nook is selling the "unknown machine" at my Nookington's for 4,800 bells. Ouch! It's the "special" so I assume it's fairly rare and I believe it completes the lab set. Anyone interested, let me know.

Want a complex machine for it? :)
 
I bought what I presume is the lab bed the other day. I thought it was the same as what I saw that Romeo had but now I'm not sure - on his the electricity rose up, fir lack of a better way to describe it. On mine it just stays in the same spot. Anyway, I would like to buy it if no one else has. I don't have a set of anything at all yet, so might as well start somewhere, and this stuff is pretty cool. Will you be online anytime later tonight?

i've got some things.
i think i've got a coin, brick, fire ball, mario hat, and wall paper. i got most of it one day with my slingshot.

i'll mail you anything you'd like.
i really don't have anything specific i'm looking for in return. i'm presently trying to put together a go room. pretty much all i've got at this point is a go board and some wall paper that i think will set the mood nicely. but i don't know what i want.

but as for the mario stuff, just as what you'd like, and i'll mail it right over.
 
i finally got the golden watering can today!!

i immediately went and cut a section of trees to make a flower garden. i grabbed all the flowers around town and brought them in. i haven't set them up for breeding yet, but i will soon. i probably won't put too much effort into it until spring.

my next plan is to do something creative with my tree layout. i've got some pretty fun ideas. but i can't do too much until i get the golden axe. i failed for the 3rd day today. but i'm starting to enjoy the challenge.
 
Yeah, I'm having problems connecting as well. I'm on the east coast.

My Nooks is having a 5x points day so I bought everything he had, but how can I get him to restock? I thought I read earlier of people buying out the store and then doing it again? Actually the paper doesn't seem to go out of stock, though.

He doesn't restock, but ordering stuff from the catalog counts towards your points too. You're better off just ordering the most expensive item in your catalog over and over.
 
Just started playing Animal Crossing today, and just started Nook's errands. Have a newbie question for you. When you take a picture, can you only store one at a time without saving to the SD card?

Yes, as far as i know. It only saves the last photo you snapped.

That's nuts. Even My Pokemon Ranch can do more than that.

I'll be on tonight. If there is a particular time you are logging on, just shoot me a message and let me know. It's all yours!

Cool - but wasn't that on sale yesterday? In any case, I'll be on later tonight. Sometime after 8:30 PM (Eastern), hopefully not too much after. It may depend on whether or not Nintendo WiFi is working - last night there were problems, as noted above, for at least two of us.

Yesterday I bought my second batch of turnips. This time... no time traveling. Do turnip prices always peak on Thursdays, or are they just commonly highest on Thursdays? I.e. if the price on Thursday is lousy, is there any reason to hold off on selling anyway?
 
[quote name='crunchewy']Well, SD cards are pretty darn cheap, and it's something you should probably have anyway.[/quote]

Oh, I have one. It's just a bit of a hassle to have to save a pic every time I take one. Because my town's name is Your Mom, there's all sorts of little dialogue worth saving to share with friends later. :D
