You could always buy up a bunch of and scatter those little starter radios that play random KK songs all over the island. Or proper stereos with KK tracks you bought from the ATM. Pipe in your own music.

or, alternatively, you could accept that it looks cute and add some furniture to the starter villager's houses as well

gonna use this as a segue to mention that after my traveling backwards yesterday, everything is still business as normal. I got some items in the mail that I ordered in the future, so it seems like even things that are supposed to happen "tomorrow" will still happen the next day should you travel backwards, and they're not postponed until the actual date they were supposed to arrive.

Yeah this is the first time I’ve been going out of my way to decorate the exterior of villagers houses

Bianca has a very clean fenced in yard with the iron table and chair she requested, and also a lawnmower
Fuchsia just has a fuckload of tulips and some garden gnomes I dunno
My boy Genji right next door has a sweet Zen fence and I filled his yard with bamboo

I have not figured out how to decorate Marinas yard yet.
And Al mistakenly got some beachfront property that was supposed to go to Marina so gently caress him. First in line for the ol’ bug net treatment, honestly.

I took a loan break to save up on Turnips and I flipped them for 1.6mil today. I would normally be totally cool with not making any more loan payments this week and investing every bell into more turnips so I could retire right now, but the process of traveling back and forth multiple times in a row for a full inventory of turnips is such a hassle Im not sure I even want the free 10 million

Is there any sort of overall island progression locked behind the house upgrades, or is it nothing but bigger houses? I'm fine with my current house size and would rather dump millions of bells into turnips every week.

That does sound useful. I guess I could dedicate the extra unused rooms to turnip storage.

I have taken a look at furniture customization and it's pretty neat! Here's what I've learned:

From last page, but I discovered a trick to be able to at least see what noncraftable furniture is customizable at the workbench without having to have them in your inventory to check: If you go to Harvey's photo studio, you can put down any furniture in your catalog, as well as see all possible workbench-customization variations.

Unfortunately, this doesn't let you see colors that aren't DIY-customizable, so you still have to find those on your own first.

You only need to water flowers if you're trying to hybridize. Regular flowers can be left unattended and they won't die.

The spider plant cringed as its owner brought forth the watering can. "I am a spider plant!" it cried indignantly. "How dare you water me before my time! Guards!" it called. "Guards!"

Borin, its owner, placed the watering can on the table and looked at it. "You will be watered," he said.

"You do not dare to water me!" laughed the plant.

"You will be watered," said Borin.

"Do not water me!" wept the plant.

"You will be watered," said Borin.

I watched this exchange. Truly, I believed the plant would be watered. It was plant, and on Gor it had no rights. Perhaps on Earth, in its permissive society, which distorts the true roles of all beings, which forces both plant and waterer to go unh appy and constrained, which forbids the fulfillment of owner and houseplant, such might not happen. Perhaps there, it would not be watered. But it was on Gor now, and would undoubtedly feel its true place, that of houseplant. It was plant. It would be watered at will. Such is the way with plants.

Borin picked up the watering can, and muchly watered the plant. The plant cried out. "No, Master! Do not water me!" The master continued to water the plant. "Please, Master," begged the plant, "do not water me!" The master continued to water the plant. It was plant. It could be watered at will.

The plant sobbed muchly as Borin laid down the watering can. It was not pleased. Too, it was wet. But this did not matter. It was plant.

"You have been well watered," said Borin.

"Yes," said the plant, "I have been well watered." Of course, it could be watered by its master at will.

"I have watered you well," said Borin.

"Yes, master," said the plant. "You have watered your plant well. I am plant, and as such I should be watered by my master."

The cactus plant next to the spider plant shuddered. It attempted to cover its small form with its small arms and small needles. "I am plant," it said wonderingly. "I am of Earth, but for the first time, I feel myself truly plantlike. On Earth, I w as able to control my watering. I often scorned those who would water me. But they were weak, and did not see my scorn for what it was, the weak attempt of a small plant to protect itself. Not one of the weak Earth waterers would dare to water a plant if it did not wish it. But on Gor," it shuddered, "on Gor it is different. Here, those who wish to water will water their plants as they wish. But strangely, I feel myself most plantlike when I am at the mercy of a strong Gorean master, who may water m e as he pleases."

"I will now water you," said Borin, the cactus's Gorean master.

The cactus did not resist being watered. Perhaps it was realizing that such watering was its master's to control. Too, perhaps it knew that this master was far superior to those of Earth, who would not water it if it did not wish to be watered.

The cactus's watering had been finished. The spider plant looked at it.

"I have been well watered," it said.

"I, too, have been well watered," said the cactus.

"My master has watered me well," said the spider plant.

"My master, too, has watered me well," said the cactus.

"I am to be placed in a hanging basket on the porch," said the spider plant.

"I, too, am to be placed in a hnaging basket on the porch," said the cactus.

"I wish you well," said the spider plant.

"I, too, wish you well," said the cactus.

"Tal," said the spider plant.

"Tal, too," said the cactus.

I did not think that the spider plant would object to being watered by its master again. For it realized that it was plant, and that here, unlike on Earth, it was likely to be owned and watered by many masters.

Hey I know this has probably been asked before, but is there a reliable guide to what fish and bugs are presently available anywhere? Every website has conflicting information that I think some of them just copy/pasted from New Leaf in their mad scramble to get clicks. For instance, Peacock and Monarch butterflies are supposedly in season right now, but I've yet to see either anywhere. Similarly, I've yet to find a conclusive answer on whether the second tier of the island *also* counts as "clifftop" or if it *has* to be the third tier if I want to catch a Stringfish. While I'm posting, is there any way to make fish bait faster? Grinding it out one at a time is tedious as hell.
you need blue/purple/black flowers for peacock butterflies. haven't tried purple/black but blue 100% works.

Did you plant them all at once and they still ended up growing? From what other people are saying, I thought that you have to leave some room around the saplings when you want them to grow into small trees.

Planting trees like this (diagonally) has worked for me:
