Next batch of gangtags queued up for delivery :slick:

It's getting easier to find people who don't have one, as the whole loving thread is pretty much tagged up at this point :v:


I've given you a tag. If you don't want it, send me a PM and I'll remove it.

Is there any chance I could get the tag added to the bottom of the ones I already have? :shobon:

Oh poo poo I just found my old 3DS and my AC cart was in it. No idea where the power adapter is, so I ordered a usb style one from Amazon and it’ll get here a day before New Horizons!

Now I'm wondering if I should cancel my Amazon order and just get it online because we are all going to die.

the replacement items: all of the others

But yea, gyroids being gone sucks, but hell even as an obsessive collector it's not like I'm not gonna be trying to get tons of other stuff too.

Yeah making a Gyroid room in my basement was one of my favorite things. :(

I fired up my 3DSXL and apparently my old AC game was gone replaced by one that had only just been started. Ah well.

I disliked gyroids because there was a limit on how many could be playing at a time. I wanted my attic to be a cacophony of chirps, bells, and whistles!

I fully agree with this. My spooky gyroid throne room in my basement had the big magic circle floor, a couple of torches for lighting, around 20 gyroids, and a throne in the middle of them. I wanted all of them to be making horrible sounds but I think it was 4 max? I still loved that room.

Amazon has sent me the shipping notification for my October pre-order, but it won't be in my hands until late Saturday apparently. Ah well, all things considered (the world is on fire and San Francisco is on the stay in place order) that's not terrible. I wasn't even sure if it would be shipped beforehand. I look forward to saturday!

I managed to find one of those bastards too and yeah it's like a goddamn swimming pool in my front yard and it's amazing. Between that and the Brontosaurus skull hovering high in the sky above my house because the museum is closed I can only imagine what the other villagers think about my side of the island.

Wait how did you get a shovel before the museum is open?

Aug 22, 2002


Ah, thanks for the tips on how to get the shovel. I knew Blathers gave it to you but I forgot a few people on here got the game earlier than the Norther US so I am still on day 1, I thought there might have been a way to get it before day 2. :sweatdrop:

He may have knocked me out earlier tonight but now I've got his rear end!

the can becomes a planter for flowers

The second can you get can become a finger harp!

The first two islands I traveled to had the exact same fruit (oranges) and flowers as mine :argh: but I was able to get enough material for Timmy to start building the new store. It and the Museum open tomorrow I guess?

The third island had bamboo which is neat; I brought some back to plant. But when you chop at a bamboo you can get bamboo pieces and spring bamboo pieces. Will they be used later to craft stuff?

Also I'm now going to upgrade my house again to make it bigger, but I've planted a bunch of flowers around my place and I don't want to lose them. Is there a guide online somewhere that I can see how big the place will be (2nd house after tent) so I can plan accordingly?

Also I had no idea yesterday that you could purchase tools from Timmy and a ton of presents floated by because I didn't have the slingshot :doh:

OH! And often when I'm walking around I'll hear the creaking song of an insect but there is nothing visible anywhere. I seem to remember in a past AC game that this was a buried insect? Am I thinking correctly? It's driving me crazy... maybe a Jerusalem cricket?

Ahhhhh ok that’s what was baffling me. So screen capture on the switch, pull the SD card where the pics are stored (I’m assuming you have to instruct the settings to point there first) and then download to your computer and hey ho. Yes?

stardew is a bad game with no character or atmosphere and all the people in it are boring and bland and in no way should ever be compare to animal crossing or even harvest moon which both have way more personality

Groovy, thanks :)

I can get stone fences and iron fences, but I don't like their aesthetics very much at this point.

Also someone mentioned you can customize the basic wood furniture. How do we do that?

I'm also very glad that I have an indoor crafting table now. I've taken my lovely outdoor stump one and put it on an elevated part of my island where I'm anticipating my tools to break. It'll save me some time from running all the way back home to make something.

I need help with the AC Pattern Tool export. I have put a design in there using the image upload and when I try and read the QR code on the switch app on my phone it gives me a 3999 Error. The editor has this note:
"You can't just type in your own name and town to make a pattern editable on your console. There is some "invisible" data attached to it that cannot be entered by hand. Use the below copy/load buttons to first "copy" your name/town from one of your own patterns, and then "load" it onto any other pattern and it should become editable for you in-game! The copied author information is stored into your browser, so it'll be there for your future visits as well."

How do I take a custom pattern from inside my switch game and upload it to my laptop so I can do this c/p of the invisible data? The AC Patterns site is useful but has a lot of unexplained confusing poo poo going on in it.

Ok, apparently if I just change the name and city name to "a" (no quotation marks) then the Switch app can scan the QR Code successfully. Now how do I get the pattern into my actual game? :confused:
