Can multiple people on the island make snowmen? They only give large flakes to their creator. The game is normally good about stuff like this but it seems like we only get two snowballs per island still.

So I just logged in with my alt and they were able to get a diy from the snowman I made earlier. So I guess you can reap the benefits but not make a new dude.

I think it has more to do with the fact that there's no "normal" personality type for male villagers, so jock fills that roll. So you've got fluffy sheep and mad scientist pigs who are ALL ABOUT THOSE GAINS #MUSCLELIFE

I found this helpful for making Snowboys if you need a visual guide. I didn't know about pathways, I might have to do that.

if you have a huge open area on your island you can catch a whole swarm. Like I caught five in one hour (make sure you do not have a snowboy made that day yet; I believe that stops their spawning)

My snowballs are both sitting in a big, open area and I have found zero today I’ve played for maybe two hours total.

I'd like them to just change the personality types to be both genders, honestly. I remember turning down Fang on a Nook island because I already have a cranky grey wolf, but why is Fang cranky, just look at him, he's very clearly snooty. And quite a few of the lazy and jock villagers should be normal, and some of the peppy and sisterly ones should be jocks.

I noticed that too, as well as the home-made Wishing Tree. Great stuff.

Nintendo, I would pay so much for the OG soundtracks as DLC. I need my GameCube 1am music.

Being a southern hemisphere weirdo; once you get the hang of snowdudes you'll have more large snowflakes than you know what to do with. I think I still have mine.

It's inventory cleanout day on Sharkfarts! Due to a contract dispute with Timmy and Tommy, Jimmy the Sharing Gnome has moved all the DIYs to the FreeBeach. Tons of DIYs, clothing, accessories, furniture, and other wonderful things have dumped unceremoniously on the sand for you to scavenge. Grab them before the crabs do! Anything remaining by the time I close will be gone in the morning, never to return, so get while the gettin's good.

The toy on offer today is the blue and pink mini circuit, but the boys also have a pink and red tricycle, a black vacuum cleaner, and an air conditioner, as well as unlimited red anthuriums and toy boxes.

Able's has bulldog jackets, Chesterfield coats, collarless coats, graduation gowns, holiday sweaters, parka undercoats, yodel sweaters, box-pleated skirts, comedian's pants, cropped pants, down skirts, festive-tree dresses, fleece PJs, full-length dresses with pearls, catcher's masks, headgear, ladder shades, and moooooore! Please place your custom designs on the back wall- delete whatever!

Baabara is making a rustic-stone wall.

In addition to stuff on the FreeBeach, take anything else you want! Hit rocks, eat fruit, catch bugs, flake it up!

I am only 500K away from finally paying off my stupid house, so tips are definitely appreciated, but messages on the message board are even better!

Am also looking for any of the following DIYs:

forest wall
autumn leaf fire
maple leaf stool
maple leaf wallpaper
maple leaf flooring

edit: I'll be mostly AFK, but I'll try to check in

You seriously have issues.

Go catch more racoons in a net and step away from the computer.
Dung beetles only have a chance to spawn on the two snowballs you get each day right? So once you make the snowboy, there is not a chance for them to spawn the rest of the day? Or can they spawn anywhere as long as you have the snowballs?

Seen differing info on this.

You need to leave the snowballs alone for a dung beetle. I would just wait until you catch one then make the snowfolk.

Same. It’s funny how of you if give him a wrestling outfit, he’ll say it’s not his normal style to wear one.

Though in my head I just took it as he much prefers an El Santo style cape and speedo.
