Thanks, everyone! I didn’t take full advantage of the fishing tourney the first time around, so it’s nice to have a million points. Would have opened it sooner but I think I spent most of the day going to nook islands to fill the empty house. Time lost all meaning.

But, I did end up with Raymond. One day, I will finally have Lobo but for now, hipster office cat will do.

Thanks for hosting, it was a lot of fun! I didn't get a shark but I did get the dumbest looking fish in the universe:

Kidd is directly to the left of the plaza

Redd has fake wistful painting, fake scary painting and fake famous painting as well as candlesticks and the red/black color wheel with diamonds.

Redd is at the back/top of the island. Bring a ladder. Someday I’ll terraform that area. Just not right now. :v:

Edit: Turnips are currently 148

Are there any DIYs that are especially worth opening up an island for? I love getting new recipes, so I’m happy in almost any case. But what’s worth the extra effort of opening and staying open?

My sense is that anything ironwood, the cutting board, and anything gold tends to get called out a lot.

Anything else that folks are hunting for?

Oh cool, my island is buying nips at 548. I'm too lazy for the exchange or anything, so in a decision I'm sure I will never learn to regret, here's a dodo code: closed.

The sisters are selling a crown for 1.2 million bells if you're looking to spend all your hard-earned bells immediately afterwards, and there's a couple fossils and DIY recipes on the ground that are free to a good home.

You can definitely have your island completely flat. My boyfriend ended up doing that because he didn't want to bother with ladders or inclines. It's really weird, just having a flat plane to run across, but it does make things feel more open.

Gravestones (western- and zen-style). Anything for gardens like the stone lion-dog or stone lanterns.

Bookshelves seem like something people will open up for regularly. I don't even have that recipe yet myself because every time I see it posted the island is either closed already or there's been a communication error.

Even little unexpected decorative things like decoy ducks and matryoshkas seem to be kind of rare-ish.

AITA for deleting my gf's Animal Crossing island?

quote:

We have one copy of Animal Crossing, and one switch. Both belong to me, I paid for them, but I've always said that we share them. We can't afford to spend any money on another game or gaming system.

I have been working from home, and my gf has been running an etsy shop from home as well that's been surpringly lucrative (she sells little paintings of video game characters). We're getting by pretty fine in the pandemic, but we're stuck at home with not much to do.

I had pre-ordered animal crossing forever ago. my gf begged me to get it, but i was gonna get it anyway cause I loved acnl. When it showed up, I didn't have time to play it. I was under a lot of stress and making up the work of 3 people. My gf asked if she could play, and I said sure but I might want to make my own game if I dont like the villagers/island layout she picked.

she said fine and blah blah

fastforward now. work calmed down, I have a lot more free time. I decided I wanted to play animal crossing now, so without thinking I started a new game.

The next day, when she picked up the switch and saw her island was gone, she got upset. She told me I ruined all her work and she had spent the last 3 nights hunting for the stupid popular cat, Raymond (who I hate).

I told her that I had warned her when she started that I might end up resetting. She said I was taking too long and that was several weeks ago, and there was no reason I couldn't just share the island she had already started, she said she made a space just for me to put my house by a big lighthouse, because she knows I love lighthouses and even collect them. She got angry and upset and locked herself in our room.

Later, I decided to go try to talk to her again, maybe see if we could make a compromise.

I enter our room and she's got a framed picture in her lap -- one that I had hung on the wall by our bed. She's painting on it. I go see and she's in the process of painting that loving animal crossing cat on my lighthouse picture! I yell at her to stop and she starts going on about how I have to control how everything looks, and it isn't fair I get to have lighthouse pictures in our room if she can't even control anything about the animal crossing island we share. Yeah, I have 6 lighthouses in our bedroom, but I was living here first, and she's only been living with me for a year. and animal crossing is my game. I told her she shouldn't have been upset that I wanted to control what happens in my game.

Now I'm pissed because she potentially ruined one of my paintings, and she's pissed because she lost her island (and I dont want Raymond on our island).

AITA???


op posted:

I don't care what villagers are on our island. she can pick whatever ones she wants...…..just not Raymond. He looks like my dad, and I hate my dad. I have a real reason for hating the cat.

My disdain for you all knows no bounds.
Yeah, there's a reason paintings making a comeback did not excite me when they announced that. It's been a pain in the rear end to complete the art gallery in almost every Animal Crossing game, and they kept all the worst parts from New Leaf. (Spot the difference is neat. Redd no longer being a guaranteed weekly visit was not.) It's a massive time and RNG gate that just makes things way more annoying than they should be.

Does anyone have the DIY recipe for the blue iron fence currently in their nook machine? Or just know the recipe themselves and would be willing to make me about 60 of them if I provide the materials? I'm working on a project where I'm giving all my villagers themed yards, and need it for Bluebear and Sherb.

Flowers count as occupying a space and a fully grown flower is +1 points to your island score. Curiously, weeds aren't actually bad for island rating. What is bad is having 8x8 areas of nearly solid "stuff." Make sure none of your flower fields are too solid.
