I have also found that bait isn't necessarily the most efficient method. Fin shadows show up fairly regularly on their own, so it seems to work better to despawn other fish spawns (usually by running near them) and search the coast for fins.

Can you buy turnips from other islands? I was sleeping off a hangover and didn't realise that Captain Turnip left at midday, I'd really appreciate someone letting me come and grab at least an inventory's worth of turnips...

Something, something, the turnips must flow :stare:

That said, I don't really get to make jokes about turnips as I still avoid all things turnip related in the game. I'd otherwise say to Daisy Mae that it is nothing personal when, happening upon them on a Sunday as I might, I stand, point, and go, 'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaah!', body-snatcher style, but I'd be lying.

Ahh, same here. I disgustingly put in a 13 hour session yesterday. But tbf it was raining all day. Im gonna open my gates for the first time on my “work” island. I put a buncha items out in front of Nooks if anyone wants them. Put a buncha watering cans out by my house. If anyone has any gothic items or dark/skully clothes/wallpaper/flooring/decorations I would love you to death.

But that’s how it is when you start wanting to have things. Now, I just look at them, and when I go away I carry them in my head. Then my hands are always free, because I don’t have to carry a suitcase.
In New Leaf with the villager cards I was able to have my entire town be full of bears and cubs and it was pretty great???

So I thought this time I'd let an empty plot stand for a while and see who moves in rather than go looking on islands for someone.

Out of the 400+ possible villagers who could move in I get... a villager who has already lived on my island before. Great. It's wonderful to see you again Keaton.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
I just dumped 1.5 million bells into turnips today, so if my island sucks again I apologize in advance to whoever's hosting a good price that I end up visiting. It's gonna take me like six frigging trips.

Golden watering cans are out for the first five who want them - please water, then use on your own island (if you can make your own, it might be nice to leave them for newbies). There is a mystery gift station to the left of the airport, with many different things but no fossils. Take two!

There are people with 500-700 hours in the game and it's been out since late March. People stuck at home don't need to time travel to get elaborate setups. They just need turnips, friends, and a lot of free time.

I've changed up my island maybe 4 times, relocated at least 14 houses and shops twice, destroyed countless bridges, etc.

The real strategy to getting what you want is leaning on the community.

Go to cataloging parties, visit friend islands to grab DIYs and buy items, trade with folks. Plan out what you want and do it a step at a time. Have friends water your flowers.

Assuming most elaborate islands are due to time traveling shenanigans is, at this point, silly.

Hello Fatty!


Fun Shoe
Capitalist hellhole town updates!

So my pool area is more or less complete. You can see the stage in the background.




Here's a shot of it at night. I really wish it got a bit darker so the lights could have a bit more impact.




I made a stargazing area for when goons come over to view meteor showers (those are money trees btw).




I was going to make a red light district but a combination of space limits and difficulty making any outside space look like it's inside made me scrap the idea. I've since moved my more degenerate ideas into my house, which is now a shady love hotel. It's all still a bit of a work in progress but here's the lobby.




Here's the actual room you can purchase for the night.



And from another angle




Finally I made this porno studio that I will eventually transfer to the basement (when I actually have one). It still needs a couple spotlights and better snacks for the services table. Because my actors work hard and they deserve the best, damnit!




(No, I don't know what's wrong with me either.)
