So I definitely should just a stone axe to get wood and not an actual axe right? I assume if I chop down all my trees I’m screwed.

It's not really possible to be screwed in this game but yes, stone axe is for gathering resources, metal ax is for when you want to chop the tree down.

there's honestly so much to do this time around that I'm considering just turning back the clock and not time traveling after all

probably should let my new villagers move in first before I do though I assume?

Yeah, it's the latter. Seven other real life people are on the account, and I intend to eventually make seven extra accounts on my Switch for more houses to design.

Oh. I'd probably consider a family account for those 7 accounts and then maybe move yourself over to it since shuffling things around between characters like that is going to get old in a massive hurry.

For what it's worth, I'm rolling in nook miles and I have like 20k right now with really nothing meaningful to spend them on at the moment. I know stuff to spend them on will unlock, but I'm just getting them so fast right now. Maybe that'll slow down when I complete a bunch of the challenges that don't reset (Catch 1 fish! Catch 20 fish! Catch 50 fish! Catch 200 fish! or whatever for each level)? Or do they eventually reset?

Dear diary, I got another erection today at work. SO embarrassing, but kinda hot. The CO asked me to fix up his dress uniform. I had stayed late at work to move his badges 1/8" to the left and pointed it out this morning. 1SG spanked me while the CO watched, once they caught it. Tomorrow I get to start all over again...

I think it's kind of dumb that the crafting station apparently doesn't link into your storage. I get that it wouldn't when I'm at Nook's or DIY-ing in the field but when I'm in my home it should just automatically detect that I have 200 of this wood type instead of making me go withdraw the amount I need of it from the invisible storage in the house I'm currently in.

You mean the actual trees, bamboo sprouts, or bamboo mats? Anyway I have some of all 3 (though I think you’d have to register as a best friend to dig?), so you can come visit and take some.

Hey so did some experimenting with tools breaks.

Flimsy axes and shovels break at 40 uses and the upgraded forms at 100 uses.

From what I can tell an axes only break down if it hits a tree or rock, so hitting a building or furniture by accident won't do anything.

Shovels only break if it hits a rock or digs something up, so hitting buildings, trees, or just digging or filling up holes seem to be okay.

Still trying to find out the net and rod number, but it looks like it only breaks if you actually catch something so don't be afraid of whiffing.

The watering can is weird cause I can't get a consistent number out of it so I'm still experimenting with it.

Has this experiment also revealed if using a Shovel or an Axe has any effect on what you get from the rocks? I've gotten lots of iron with a shovel and stones with an axe as well as the complete opposite. So I cannot get a read on if there's a best choice or if they're the same.

Finished getting the housing stuff done for the three new villagers. It went this way:

• Invite 3 villagers to live with you from 3 separate island visits
• Nook gets a call the next day
• He then sends you on a quest to craft a total of 18 things. 3 interior things, 3 exterior things for all 3 houses
• Verify everything is right by pressing on the dropbox at the house and then talk to Nook. From there, you'll move forward.

The three villagers I talked to were cool, so I invited them too live with me and those same 3 are moving into lots corresponding to what order I talked to them. Meaning, I talked to Nana first and she's in the house labeled 1. Then Hornsby is 2, with Audie as 3.

The museum is really incredible. Every room has a very different feel and it's all gorgeous.

But frankly, my favourite part is in the fossil section. It really wasn't much of a section before, but oh my god they nailed it. The room design and flow leads to a really cute joke/wink and I'm just in love.

They're only found at night on the clifftop rivers. Don't worry, I haven't really found on yet either.

I've only got 5 more creatures to find in my game this month, but I'd like to go to a southern hemisphere island and see what's available there.

Re: order of new villagers moving in

I had six villagers invited by the time I get to where I had to put down the three new house plots, but the second and fifth I invited were the first two to move in. And plot #2 was the first to be populated. It seems like all of it is random.

You were lucky :negative:

Mine did not correspond to the order I invited them in, which really screwed with my placement. I made one of them my neighbor and oops turns out they got randomized! I blame Tom Nook.

I have 2, each of them just really tiny. It's enough though and it kind of makes fishing it easy.

FWIW I used bait up there for about an hour last night and didn't get a stringfish. Lots of golden trouts though so it paid off.

I've only invited one villager so far (Skye the wolf) because most of the ones I've run into have been hideous looking. I've completed two of the Nook houses so far, though, and they've both gone to randos (Anchovy and Puddles). So I'm hoping Skye gets the third one. :ohdear:
