Before you happened were you going up instead of down in the queue until you refreshed because that's what's been happening for me for about the last half hour and now I'm worried the queue is going to freak out on me too.

Yeah I went from 7 to 11 to 5, I went backwards a few times and just didn't want to press refresh so I don't lose my spot. It all ended well though but it made for a funny screenshot.

I'm worried this queue is gonna glitch out. Its no longer reliably refreshing for me, and instead periodically says my number has gone UP, only to go down when I manually refresh the page.

This is also happening to me.

they weren't and it's such a great addition :kimchi: I got to make my first wand today because finally after so many nights since the game released I finally had some shooting stars over my island. My only problem now is that I need to buy half a dozen replicas of my glasses because I use them with every outfit :pram:

This except doctors' masks because it's the socially responsible thing to wear.


Also WHY are the star wand and the cherry blossom wand the same? I want 16 outfits, dammit!

Nothing too special but here are the highlights:

Able Sisters: Cyber Shades, Space Parkas, Labelle/Cute Sneakers, Pixel Shades, Cardigan/Shirt combo, Detective Outfits
Native Fruit: Cherries
Kicks is here! He's probably got some poo poo you want!
Hamlet is teaching the Fossil Doorplate!

Turnips are in the basement so don't bother bringing them unless you want to give them to me :P

Mostly I'd really just like people to come and leave some art on my bulletin board! My birthday is in a couple of days and we'll be quarantined

I think writing on the board gives new arrivals interference, so I'm going to wait around a bit to write to yis. Dropped some furniture presents by you!

I have a polite ban on face masks on my island. Leave that poo poo in the real world, this is my escapism.

That and dummies/pacifiers. They can gently caress right off. Disgusting.

You know it would be cool if people talked about their towns and stuff in this thread and not their spot on some turnip queue.

Flowers don't wilt anymore. The best you could do is let that place get overrun with weeds as for as depressing foliage goes.

Flowers will loose their petals if you run over then repeatedly. You're have to repeat it daily, but that could work.

Agreed, thank you. But this is the way these games always go. The minmaxers who are obsessed with raking in bells as quickly as possible and keep setting their clocks forward will wash out eventually though once a new assassins creed comes out. Stay strong friend

In all seriousness though maybe a separate thread for the turnip stuff would be a good idea?

Ants need a lot of space to spawn due to a funny reason. Try throwing the turnip in an open area like the beach. If there's enough space then they should show up pretty quickly.

is it just dropping trash items or is it having the trash items you craft with the trash placed that gets them? had tin cans and boots out for days with nothing

starting to wonder if I need to go try and get them on a mystery island

When good looking bridges cost over 200,0000 bells each, it isn't just the min/maxxers who are interested in getting the most out of their turnips.

I had tin cans and boots out by my house for roughly a week before flies spawned, and I didn't see them very regularly.

it's not a big deal that people post about/to facilitate playing online together in the thread about the videogame they are playing online in

posting to help one another get money and items and as part of that visiting their townis, in fact, maybe the best kind of post possible in a thread for this game

wanting to sell turnips online, something that is a mechanic in the game on purpose to incentivize visiting other towns(which is why it's possible to sell at other island's prices despite other things like selling to other island's flicks not being allowed), is not minmaxing.
it's using a mechanic that exists in the game to be used.

I'm watching a YouTube of a Japanese guy making a kind of park on his island with cliffs and waterfalls etc but something that I just noticed is that he has multiple incline packs in his pocket. I know only one can be built per day, but can you get multiple ones from Nook somehow that I haven't unlocked yet?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmUWzx3f-oo

Also for really good custom clothing making tips, Berry Box is excellent and even though it's in Japanese it's very easy to follow along by watching.

Turnip price sucks, but Able's has deal with it sunglasses and I think that's kinda cool:

edit2: done for now!

Able's is across the river to the right of Nook's, which is to the right of the airport. I'll be building the bridge tomorrow.

Edit: oh, feel free to take the DIY recipes and peaches, they're native.
