So in fishing for the purposes of gold/silver tickets does the game use your current region or the one you set when you first started the game? If it is the latter I missed an easy trick to guarantee those.
Why do they matter? Four Islands require them and the play coin costs are utterly insane for the gold one (50 play coins) which one of the islands is exclusive to. Silver is different region in the same country is a nice fuck you to the UK with our 4 regions (as Nintendo decided to use the 4 nations instead of, you know, the counties like is done in most other countries) and it costs 10 play coins according to the Japanese wiki (I'm sure I read 30 in the game itself though).
It also turns out special Miis count as foreign for this purpose. You have to beat the first Island for the tickets to start to show up so Shibata was not able to help here.
I also had a really weird relay bug. When using a relay I received the same Mii twice in a row (both were the extra 5 the Nintendo zone generates) but they had different stats in the plaza (and were separate), different high scores in Mii Force and different Gardens to view. Judging by different hits/plaza size/scores one of them was months older than the other one (but both had the same last played software). How long do these spare relay Miis hang around on the server for?
I wish I had more tickets

I assume when you get all of the ticket achievement AND in-game challenges, then you are able to get all hats and bubbles? I'm saving the bubbles till last.
Each game gives 22 tickets. You will need the VIP room to be able to afford all the bubbles.
It looks like it's using the screenshot feature from Flower Town.
I am so upset the fishing game doesn't have that feature as that one looks really good.
oh my. yes it is.. i thought that was fixed with the new3DSXL? :/
darn how do I change its position?
For whatever game you want top-left deactivate it then reactivate it. This is why I choose 3DS Sound for that purpose as it is always in your system and quick to that for.
So the flower game is actually good? I remember reading a negative review of it a while back which kinda put me off.
Not sure I could handle having four Streetpass games on the go at once.
The beginning parts are really slow which is why it gets negativity plus people being prejudiced because it involves growing flowers. But seeing as the bundle of the first 4 games is 25% off it can considered free (though I prefer to consider battle free as that is not good).
Also you are not obligated to play all the games at once.
ouch - I am amazed by how you guys reached the 9,999,999 warriors :O
and I had my 3DS since Dec 2012 :/
It is due to how the game scales its armies to yours and it eventually snowballs, usually around the third loop of the game. Plus passing people with plazas containing thousands of people.
I have 3000 troops now since I unaware that you can not challenge monarchs until a certain point in the game (I'm trying to do a low troop playthrough as I got all the tickets and had I fought the monarchs as planned and then failed the invasion I would have 59% of what I originally had).
