ANIMAL CROSSING: NEW HORIZONS - Thread of Gaming Zen

[Tasty]

Also pilon I got plenty of blue and purples if you want me to come drop some off some time. Unfortunately can't send live flowers in the mail. But I'll keep an eye out for Leif, might be able to send you seeds.

[CatsCatsCats]

I got black tulips all around my square if anyone needs em

[CatsCatsCats]

Had a bunch of cute things from tasty and a shit ton of weeds

[Tasty]

I feel like I should offer a weed cleaning service since I want the weed cleaning cheevo and I'm only like halfway there and I doubt I'll get it plucking 2 a day normally

Do the nook ticket islands work for this? They've always got plenty of weeds

[Tasty]

Yes, that's my backup plan.

[Shaka Khan]

I finished my fossils yesterday. About the same timeframe as ACNL (8-10 weeks.)

Will keep a lookout for Dimetredon stuff for you dude.

How can you tell if the fossils are complete? Will blathers say anything?

[Shaka Khan]

I have the following fossil dupes. If anyone is interested in any of them. Let me know. I'll also take any of y'all dupes that I don't have. So share your updates lists plz.

Do you still have the Dimetredon torso? I need it (and the head I assume), looks like I've only got the tail and that's my last one to complete.

Yup he will. But I also ran through the museum and confirmed there was only one missing a few weeks ago too, so I knew if he was all "Oh my heavens a fossil I've never seen, well ruffle my feathers!!" then it'd be the last one.

[Beezy]

I don't remember Blathers saying anything to me. Guess I'll double check my museum later.

[Shaka Khan]

I’ve used the QR code scanner for the first time. I was ok with being able to download one scanned design at a time, but I when I did so and saved the new design on top of the previous one (replaced an apple fruit marker with a peach) every spot I’ve used the peach marker was replaced with an apple.

Is this exclusive for the QR codes or all custom designs? If this happens to all custom design then I might be screwed, as I’ve used every current custom design somewhere on the island

[Shaka Khan]

Never mind. I just found out that overwriting custom patterns will do this non-clothing patterns regardless of origin. Good fucking Jon, Nintendo.

I'm done with custom patterns I guess.

[Yeti]

Redd finally deigned to visit my island today. It had been such a long time I went to the museum to check the date on my most recent previous art. April 26th. Over a month!!!!!!

[Tasty]

Yeeaah pretty rare. I remember always missing him in New Leaf too lol. After 7 years I ended up with just 21 out of 33 works.

[Shaka Khan]

Is anyone also interested in exchanging DIY recipes? I have 15 that are costing me an island star cause they're laying on the floor.

- Light bamboo rug
- Backyard lawn
- Underwater flooring
- Iron garden table
- Orange umbrella
- Leaf umbrella
- Shell rug
- Wild log bench
- Wooden toolbox
- Windflower fan
- Flat garden rock
- Snazzy pansy wreath
- Wooden block table
- Log stakes
- Timber doorplate

[Tasty]

Will check my Nook catalog later! :3

(You don't want to throw them in your basement? Though I guess at that point they'd decrease your HHA rating...)

[pilonv1]

Will post mine later, got a bunch I want to get rid of

It’s snowing again today

[Shaka Khan]

I wanna visit your island and watch the snow!

[pilonv1]

Ironwood low table
Barbell
Lucky gold cat
Ironwood dresser
Clackercart
Pal tree lamp
Iron and stone fence
Pansy table

I’d love either the backyard lawn or underwater flooring Shaka :kiss

Island is open if you want to visit. Recipes are near the museum.

[Shaka Khan]

Thank you again, Pilonv1!  😘

[pilonv1]

No problem, hope you liked the snow

[pilonv1]

Full on snow today

same

[pilonv1]

You only get the remixed hourly themes when it's snowing, not when there snow on the ground

[Tasty]

GOOD






Me in six months: nooooo

(but for real that's also how the rain remixes work.)

[Tasty]

[Yeti]

I thought Celeste was supposed to show up every time there is a meteor storm but I have one going on my island and she is nowhere to be found. This is the second time this has happened.

[pilonv1]

: @ Shaka sending me an Antique Clock, I had two and sent one off to someone else last week when I sent you the writing desk(?)

[Purple Filth]

I thought Celeste was supposed to show up every time there is a meteor storm but I have one going on my island and she is nowhere to be found. This is the second time this has happened.

its RNG apparently

I had that same scenario for most of my meteor showers to the point i had gotten the wand (aka the first Item) from Celeste on a friend's island and was able to make it immediately since i had the materials required. 

She finally appeared eventually 

[Tasty]

pilons with these snow gifts

Thank you

[pilonv1]

I've got so many snowflakes I don't know what to do with them. I can't craft most of the cool stuff because you need a perfect Snowboy to get one and mine all look like failed science experiments.

[eleuin]

anyone know the song?

[Yeti]

Managed to breed a blue flower and caught the Peacock butterfly that required it. All I need now is a mahi-mahi and then I’ll be all caught up on fish and bugs for the month.

[Shaka Khan]

I have the following dupe DIY recipes. If anyone is interested in any of them let me and send it in a letter:

- Pond stone
- Classic pitcher
- Money flooring
- Log extra long sofa
- Key holder
- Cutting board
- Peach wall

: @ Shaka sending me an Antique Clock, I had two and sent one off to someone else last week when I sent you the writing desk(?)

Haha oops!

[Shaka Khan]

Thank you Andy for the recipe! Is there anything you need that I gift you? You've been very generous ♥️

[bork]

https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/06/random_kfc_makes_animal_crossing_island_gives_visitors_free_real-life_chicken

Perhaps the best part, though, is that KFC is opening up the island to its fans on Facebook at specific times. If a visitor manages to find the Colonel when visiting, they'll get the chance to win a free eight-piece bucket of real KFC. It's all going down on the KFC Philippines page.

[pilonv1]

How do you get those walls? Are they just partitions? I've got the diner parts but no walls to hang the clock on

[Cryo]

I think they’re just screen walls? I don’t think the game lets you hang things on them.

My friends and I are starting to get burnt out, I’m basically only logging in to water some flowers these days.

[bork]

[Tasty]

Thank you Andy for the recipe! Is there anything you need that I gift you? You've been very generous ♥️

No worries! Umm, I don't think I have money flooring.

[Yeti]

Caught a Mahi Mahi today so I’ve now caught all fishes and bugs that have been available. Also made enough money to pay my loan and get the basement extension. I’m holding off on doing that until tomorrow so the happy home academy can grade my place without an empty basement.

[Tasty]

Those pier fish drain my soul. 😩

I thought you got more HHA points the more rooms you had, so even an empty room added to you total, but maybe not...

[pilonv1]

Got the ice wand recipe

[Yeti]

Those pier fish drain my soul. 😩

I thought you got more HHA points the more rooms you had, so even an empty room added to you total, but maybe not...

I have no idea, I thought an empty room would take away points. Ah well.

[Dickie Dee]

Ooh, I'd take the Cutting Board DIY if it's still available 

[pilonv1]

Pretty much have my island layout sorted now after juggling houses for a week to move them two squares over.

Now I just have to remove all the flowers I put on my island trying to spawn rare colours. Think I have about 2/3 of my ground is covered is flowers atm.

[pilonv1]

1 hour of digging up flowers and putting them in the trash GOTY

[Yeti]

I’m going to have to do that soon, along with clearing all the useless money trees I didn’t dig up when I first started

[pilonv1]

Decided to move two houses a few squares again so I dumped them in the middle of some of my flower fields which got rid of some of them.

Really wish the landscaping thing that picks up all your items worked on flowers too

[Tasty]

If anyone is having villagers celebrating birthdays, would love to pop over.

spoiler (click to show/hide)

Otherwise that cheevo will take 20 birthdays AKA two years

[close]

[Yeti]

I’ll keep an eye out but I’ve only had one birthday so far

[Tasty]

Thanks! I've had two.

[Tasty]

https://twitter.com/OnTheDownLoTho/status/1276177672998129664

This was literally 99% me this morning

[Yeti]

I hope they give more storage, I don’t have enough room for all these event items!

[Yeti]

Sorry, only registered users can see this content. Please Login or Register.

[Tasty]

IIRC you need to visit a player (or visit an island at the same time as them) in order to be able to send them mail.

Also, the bug off is tomorrow! I'm gonna try leaving my gates open for a while so I can try for gold! Not letting a repeat of the fishing tourney happen again.

[CatsCatsCats]

Can’t believe I have to go back to work before the summer update. Gonna be hiding in my car playing on my breaks

[pilonv1]

Hope the bug-off is better thought out than the fishing contest
