[quote name='shinryuu']Caught a Coelacanth! This time I actually caught it when it bit. =D

[/QUOTE]
Awesome! Cute bunny ears btw :D
 
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 ;).
 
Sorry I left so soon guys, really wanted to play some more, but the girlfriend wanted her K.K. song before it got any later :/

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.
 
IO- Stopped snowing so i left, oh, and i accidentally left a gyroid on the shore next to the river. You can have it if you want, or you can mail it back to me.

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.

i'll get one someday. Really more interested in the stringfish and centapede at this point.

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 ;).



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 ;)).



So I decide to go back to the little trollop and show her my stuff. Yeah, baby, it's THIS big!



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'.



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:.



Anyway, fun times. And, apparently, I need to get out more ;).
 
are canth shadows that much bigger then sea bass or tuna? i think i've seen a shadow, but i'm not sure. unless it waits till it's 5th nibble to bite, i have a lot of trouble hitting the button fast enough.

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? :whistle2: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.
 
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?
 
My gates are open. Nook has the Small Festive Tree (I think that's what it's called) in stock over here, if anyone's interested. Also still looking for non-peaches. (ETA: closed)

Anyone have their town open with Joan around? I can't seem to find her at all in my town and it's before noon. :cry:

Edit: Never mind, I had my date set to yesterday and forgot to change it back. :lol:

Miranda from Io's town sent me a letter with this Mario fire box attached, I think she tried to kill me with it after we all trapped her in!

Here's a conversation I got a kick out of:

My turnip prices were 96 today, which I was pretty happy about. Sadly I didn't have much cash today, so I only got like 280 or so turnips. :(

[quote name='shinryuu']You could actually complain about him/her at the town hall if you REALLY don't want him/her in your town. haha[/quote]

Really...cos there is this one bunny i hate and her house is right in front of my new bridge. I might try to get her to leave.

I just bought 2,000 turnips at 93 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.

Same here. I'm broke and could only afford 200 turnips.
 
I got the nook store that stays open till 1am so ill check in at 12 to see how much turnips are. And file a complant over that damn bunny blocking my bridge. LOL.

I already had someone leave my town, Big Top? i think was his name. but he was a big ugly elephant and looked stupid so i was happy he left. but i think he left because my town sucks right now.

The next day starts at 6 AM. Too bad you can't check the price at 12. Also, how is bunny blocking your bridge?! I hate all of my villagers. I wish complaining would make them leave.

I have Nan right now and she is cool as a fan. All of my villagers are pretty cool for the most part....Winnie, Static, Jeremiah, Amelia...all good people...err..animals.:cool:

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.
 
My theory from earlier re: turnip pricing changes

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.
