If you checked him every day and bought a fake to replace if he doesn't have real art, You could probably finish the art museum without trading. At least there is gonna be a lot more people with doubles floating around if you do wanna trade.

That's what I'm hoping for. I'm trying to finish my museum by the end of the year.

I’m always torn between doing that and just playing organically. I find I play more if I wait though, so since I reset my island I’ve been just taking it easy.

I refuse to do any of the reddit/nookazon/turnipspot trade deals because they just feel weird and inorganic. I'll just play and get stuff from my friends and hope herculon posts about having a big spike this week.

That said, I don't know how Nintendo expected anyone to trade villagers via the "in boxes" system through normal friend lists and not using some huge group discord or something. A friend of mine has Egbert in boxes today, and I want him. But in order to convince him to join my island I have to also have an open plot for him, which happens for exactly one day. The chances of both these things aligning through normal play with someone you actually know is basically zero.

Turnips have been low all week and jumped up to 141. I’m hoping for a bigger jump in the morning. Also, the villagers in boxes thing is a drag. The game should treat it like a camper and give you the option of having them force a villager out.

Turnips fell to 124

Didn't realize how rare this actually was, the one time I encouraged a villager to move they ended up moving to my gf's town a couple days later

I was legit under the impression that evicted villagers might decide to move to friends' islands at any point later on

finally finished picking up every tiny little doohickey and furniture piece i put all over my island over 1.5 years, customizing them all at harvs island to make them look the coolest, and then slightly rearranging them where they were. i thought my island was dope before but now its whatever the better version of dope is.

They do. If I ever have an empty plot I never wait to fill it with a Nook mile island villager. Last time I waited, I ended up with some imp’s ugly mouse villager with a cherry hat that looked like he had a red nutsack on his head.

I will wait to hear your price tomorrow as well, if that fails I will resort to the soulless misery that is turnip exchange as my storage limit has become the antagonist of my past month of play

I did the same thing lol. I had already been strongly considering starting over before the expansion/update anyway so I wasn’t too upset but it’s really weird that it can’t just be transferred normally like any other cloud save

Does anyone happen to have a large festive tree/recipe lying around that they wouldn’t mind trading? The Christmas balloon recipes have been eluding me and I don’t want to have a tree-less living room for the second year in a row.

yeah same, it sucks that they havent found a workaround or anything and also apparently its because of the one island per switch thing. whatever, i might just start over anyway. warning to all imps though, you get a new switch, make sure you go into the settings in animal crossing and turn on island backups

You can call nintendo and they can send you your island file bro. They keep it locked up and you have to answer three riddles but they'll let you download it again.

If it were me it wouldn't have gone down like that. No chance. I would have enabled backups on my island. Just saying.

The recipes don’t start appearing until tomorrow I think. I wasn’t able to get all of them last year, and that’s one I don’t have. Now I think the villagers will hand them out because I was able to get some missing fall recipes that way.

I updated my dream code if anyone wanted to check out my island

Ooh good idea. I'll update mine and post the code.

Also if you use the NSO phone app (in real life not the game) the Animal Crossing section has been updated and is pretty fully featured and most people don't even know it exists. It keeps track of random things that happen on your island, can track turnip prices automatically, has a section to redeem exclusive items and even lets you browse your entire catalog.

Anyway the reason I bring it up is that on your passport under the dream code section you can actually view how many times your dream has been visited, either by friends or randos, which I've always found interesting.
