No, whatever the second one you're pushing becomes the head. It rolls a bit when they join together, so if your body ball is blocked by a wall or water or furniture they'll just bounce of each other. I've accidentally made upside down snowmen a lot this way.

I prefer getting DIYs from completing a task than hoping for balloons because it gives me a bit of control. Waiting on the beach hoping for RNG is unfun.

Hoping for balloons isn't the problem in itself. Hoping for balloons that drop recipes, instead of clay or teddy bears or shorts, is the problem. And then hoping that the recipe is a seasonal one. At least the bloody Bunny Day balloons are guaranteed drops.

The problem for me is completing the task should be building the snowman, not making it perfect. It makes me extra angry because the way """"perfect"""" snowmen look is not how I would build a perfect snowman

I got the last nook mile achievement for snowboys today and already had all the recipes. For the next month or two I intend to make the worst and most hideous snow abominations possible.

Oh yeah, it feels like an extreme overcorrection from people hating when the Bunny Day stuff took over everything.

Agreed, the head is way too big on the perfect ones. I got decent at making what the game wants me to make, but I never liked how it looks. Looking forward to having all the DIYs so I can start making some freaks.

I fully intend to do the same once I have that last Nook Mile achievement. My island will be taken over by horrifying crimes against nature.

I paved the area the snowballs spawn it cause they absolutely refuse to pick another clear spot to spawn, so they can just bugger off. I got my DIY and achievement, and my dung beetle statue, gently caress the snowballs and gently caress the snowmen.

They actually let Tom and Isabelle out, that's nice. Not Blathers or the Nooklings though. Maybe they'll at least get to come outside at midnight.

Looks that way. I time traveled because I know I’ll be asleep before then. Didn’t get it at 11. Got it at the midnight countdown.

Seriously. It's great to see Tom outside of the place though. Other than the occasional dedication this is the first time since they built residential services, isn't it?

I always assumed Tom Nook has his own private island he goes home to every night, whereas Isabelle sleeps in Resident Services.

There's no TV. Just a biscuit-tin with the stub of a candle in it. When she can bum a match off someone to light it, imagination does the rest.
