If two grown men can't make a pervert happy for a few minutes in order to watch a film about zombies, then maybe we should all just move to Iran!
I've got Colton in boxes today. He is an awful smug horse who wears a cape and I hate him. But maybe you love him? Let me know. Island is closed for now, but I can reopen if someone wants him.

It's horrible for publicly posting your island so that people can come and go for one thing. It works pretty good for having a couple of friends over for a longer visit.

I remember the early days where a turnip price of 300 or higher was enough to get a queue of 50+ people, you'd wait for hours in line and then it would take 15-20 minutes just to run to Nooks and back with all the loading screens.

Now I can post a price of 550 and I'll get maybe 3 visitors all afternoon.

Mau-Mau is open again for candy and pumpkins!

There's also the Halloween costume collections and since I've got those out, I've cleared out my storage of just about everything that could be considered a costume as well. I don't have every color of every item (mostly pink, purple and orange 'cause those are my favorites). Catalog or take it with you. It's not at all organized. (It should all be stuff you can buy on your own island whenever.)

Turnips are 134! Buy whatever you want at Nooks!

Kicks is here! He has orange and white Impish wings among other things!

Able Sisters have Mage's dresses, soccer-uniform tops and shorts and other things!

There are DIY recipes and a few items on the beach in front of Ursala's house!

Raymond is making log stakes which makes me think I missed the spooky recipe for today! :argh:

I will probably be AFK, so thanks for visiting!

Hey everyone, opening Backhoe because I want you to take all the goddamn DIYs everywhere.

Buy whatever you want at Nooks, Impish horns and bear costumes for sale at Ables, and Saharah is wondering around and the hidden mystery wallpaper is the cafe windows (which I have been after for a very long time). Not sure if anyone is teaching anything interesting at the moment.

And last but not least, I have set up the Beach of Curses! On the beach to the right of the airport, please help yourself to any number of definitely cursed items! They are all gift-wrapped because it’s a surprise!

My island isn’t totally spooked up yet but I’m working on it, especially the Druid circle.

So I have a camper that I want to invite to my island. What is the way to make sure he replaces the villager I want. I know it involves leaving the app and restarting if I get the wrong choice, but I am not sure when to do that.

it basically reloads the island if someone quits through the menu, which can cause things like villagers stopping giving out their crafting recipes and people losing things they caught/bought/sold

Oh, that does look pretty nice. I was also considering breaking the path into stepping stones, if there's grass showing through in a lot of places it would look more intentional. I'll have to think on it.

Time to spend most of today fishing I suppose.

I have two in their homes but no crafting yet. I also can’t give gifts to those wandering outside because they just talk about the tournament.

flatluigi posted:

flatluigi's response is inaccurate.

This method of leaving has two functions:

1. You can leave from anywhere on the island.
2. It will force leave the island after 15(?) seconds, with a giant red countdown that everyone can see, if someone is still in a menu 5-10 seconds after the leave is initiated. Once this countdown ends, it will reset the progress of those remaining in the server in a similar way as when someone loses connection, as flatluigi notes above.

The second function only happens if someone remains with their window open and the person doesn't cancel the leave countdown. There is otherwise nothing technically different between leaving at the airport and through the minus menu.

If you're the only person on an island/with someone you know, there is no reason not to use minus. If you're on an island with a few other folks, you should leave with the airport since you may cut in line.

The reason people rave about not using minus to leave is because they conflate connection errors with this method of leaving, but there's no correlation. This led to more than one weird witch hunt ITT: "Who left with minus?!"

Meanwhile, you will HAVE to leave with minus if someone, like the host, goes AFK with a window open. This happens more often than you'd think.

Edit: The host can also "End Session" through the minus menu. This is a good way to force everyone to leave your island at the same time, instead of waiting on each individual person to leave.
