with naught but the ritual sacrifice of my sanity, I have finally completed the set, at 4:15 in the drat morning   e: proving that this game has a psychic sensor programmed into it, the balloon that finally dropped it? I saw that it was a red one, and immediately thought "oh, it'll be a regular recipe, not a seasonal one, gently caress. Eh, might as well get it anyways, even if it's not what I'm looking for."

There is no way you're supposed to get 300 points in one day. The trophies have to be cumulative.

I have over 300 bait stockpiled. I cannot lose.  Neither can the clams, apparently, as they keep reappearing on my shores.

I'm not trying to bash through it as quickly as possible, but I'm nearly halfway through the prizes as is. I'm expecting to get the rest when I log back on this afternoon. Re-reading your post, I think I've got something wrong: I'm talking about prizes, not trophies. What's the score with trophies and where does the magic number 300 come from?

When you hit 300 as your all-time fishing tournament score (not just this one tourney event), I am hearing you get a gold fishing trophy and don't "need" to do any more tournaments, as there's nothing new to be gained.

Wow, CJ's dialogue could use some serious streamlining. It shouldn't take two dialogues to get your results and then sell your fish, and it definitely shouldn't take a third dialogue to then redeem your points! Why couldn't he be like Savannah and automatically ask if you want to trade in your points once you've got more than 10? Especially heinous when you're playing co-op and everyone needs to talk to him to start the next round.

That's honestly a pretty big annoyance with the game in general, especially when multiplayer gets involved. A lot of dialogue is very wordy, and some NPCs are just that long winded that you can't avoid everyone losing progress if someone decided to leave with the minus button.

Nuts, Phoebe left.. I only let her go only because she's a starter villager for me which means she doesn't have a cool custom house- it's just random poo poo but she really was rad. Wonder if I can find her again on a island

In case you were not aware, Bait doesn't cause sunken trash or water eggs to appear.

Sorry to hear that, my other starting villager left so it's just me and Phoebe to represent the initial crew, it'd suck if she decided to move on (though I'm gonna let all villagers who want to move on do so because I kinda like that bittersweet feeling of watching an animal friend move away, plus a chance for new friends).

I managed to hit 200 points today just doing it solo. I think I ended up using around 30 baits but if you don't already have bait stockpiled beforehand I think it is faster to just do it without. With bait I could get 11 points a run and without bait I think I averaged 7 or so. Running round looking for clams and then crafting them into bait would take longer than just doing another 3 minute loop. I literally got over the 200 line on my last run as the bell chimed for 6pm.

Yeah, I agree with you on that - if anything, all of this highlights the need for batch crafting (especially with bait...) to reduce the amount of time spent plugging through the crafting windows ad nauseum. That said, for events like this you can definitely make a bunch of bait before there's a one-day fishing event going on.

It seems like maybe your fishing rod can't break during the tournament which is nice (or maybe I'm just lucky because I've only had mine break when I caught a fish right as the timer ran out) Nintendo m-maybe it could always be like this

The only cherry blossom recipes I got the whole time were the outside picnic set from Isabelle, on the one day nothing else was happening, and the wand. And I have seen a grand total of one (1) shooting star so far. But you know what? That's okay. There will be lots of other things.

The emoticon is very much in jest, because the egg rate is waaaaaaaaay down compared to what it used to be, and I take the slight 'efficiency' hit in good grace. Currently 80 points away from 300. Some eggs, or the donkey-work of getting clams and crafting bait? Enter the Thunderdome... Edit: The short version is that I'm enjoying this event a lot, and I'm actually liking a lot of the item prizes too. magimix fucked around with this message at 13:09 on Apr 11, 2020 |

Bait crafting might be the thing that makes me buy a turbo controller for the first time in my life. I normally set the controller down on my desk and mash A while I read the forums or something on my other monitor, but it'd be nice to be able to clamp the button down and go make coffee.

Usually you can come up with some spurious design or gameplay reason to justify weird decisions like that, but I haven't been able to come up with one to hide how much longer a shovel is going to last.

Finally got all the Cherry Blossom recipes just in time.

Most likely it's either Nintendo being Nintendo, they love to hide vital information for no good reason, or because the game was unfinished and there were a bunch of features they couldn't put in, as well as having less content than the previous games, like most of their first party Switch games.

I mean, not saying it's not possible. Though, I suppose turnip patterns were datamined, so I guess it's not out of the realm of possibility that datamining should have found any money tree patterns?

I had so many piles of petals to pick up this morning. So glad I moved all my hardwood trees while they were highlighted in pink.

PancakeTransmission posted:I mean the shovel already will not break while hitting rocks (until you're done), and the axe won't break until you're done hitting the tree, so it's actually possible they thought about this. I still packed a second rod just in case. Never broke one mid-tourney. I know the thing about the shovel has been reported by others, but I have definitely lost Stone Axes 1-2 whacks into a tree, at least.
