If you only have a few friends, then yeah you might need to plan it out in advance. But if you've added a bunch of people from the spreadsheet, there's a good chance there'll be someone online with their gates open (which means accepting visitors) at any time, and you can just drop right in and take what's yours. :3

Satoshi invited me over again! We went shopping so I got to see all the fully-upgraded stores. Three-story Nooklings with Gracie Grace on the third floor was crazy, haha.
I snagged a wall-mounted pot set, a K.K. Slider album (forgot which one), a megaphone, and a timer.
Didn't visit Shampoodle since she wanted to show me her museum which was expanded and the upper floor rooms were literally just storerooms for her items.
One room per type of clothing (hats, shoes, shirts, etc.)

can you stack ordinances?
No, sadly. If I could, I'd have Bell Boom and Night Owl in effect.
Bah, why did June 1 have to be a Saturday.
At laaaaaast, my copy shipped 
!
See you guys next monday! :3

Yeah, unfortunately, there's nothing you can do about that right now, you'll have to wait 'til tomorrow morning. You can do other things though.

Man I'm super bummed that I'm working nearly the entire time of the Bug Off tomorrow, I would have really liked to earn a handful of that bug furniture!
Ah well, there's always next time. And I'll totally see if I can't grab a few pieces during my breaks.

Grab fruit during tours (mini-games) and return and get shovel from gyroid. Plant fruit. Wait days.So my Club Tortemer island won't reset n just stays the same with all trees cut down

I can't decide between "Night Owl" and "Wealthy." What are the actual effects of all the ordinances? Also, what do I need to do to meet my old pal K.K. Slider one more time?
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Kinda sucks that the best beetles won't show up until AFTER the bug-off

Seconded. From what I've read it seems like K.K. is a ways away from the starting point kind of a bummer but also it's cool to have something to work towards
Club LOL and the Cafe are both ways to meet KK again. The cafe is a public works project, and I THINK Club LOL is an automatic thing.
Wealthy or Bell Boom means just that: items are sold for more bells than normal, but the items you SELL also go for more bells than normal.
Night owl means residents and shops will be around and close later. Most notably, Re-Tail is open till 2 AM.
Early Bird is for morning gamers: shops and residents are around and open earlier.
The last ordinance is for wildlife. Weeds rarely grow and flowers never wilt.

Haha, a muumuu appeared in the island shop; wearing a dress on a male is more fun than I thought.

Only thing I seem to be able to do is collect things but my pockets are full already. I plan to mostly play at night while at work so I hope this doesn't block me in the future.

Second day: Unfortunately, all Nooklings had in stock were the Bug Net and Shovel again, and I still need at least a fishing rod. Luckily, I got some good gifts from my villagers (for resale) and some really nice bug catches (multiple RB Butterflies), so I was able to pay off my loan and get the first expansion for tomorrow. I was also able to raise my rating up to 100%. And I caught a bee (after I remembered the strategy from past games)!

Does wealthy change the price of your home or public works? If not, that seems like the best choice since All I'm doing at this point is fishing and paying those things off.
Doesn't Isabelle sell you the stuff?
She sold me a Bug Net, since I couldn't get it from the Nooklings (and you had the option of choosing the tutorial for bug catching or fishing).
Isabelle will sell you ether a Bug Net or a Fishing Rod, if you say you want to do that hobby and don't have the tool.
Anyone have a site that would list the English and Japanese names for the bugs? The list of bugs by points values uses the Japanese translations.

I foolishly picked the Bug Catching option, even though I had already bought a bug net from Nooklings. I didn't realize that I missed my chance to get a fishing rod from Isabelle until I saw the "I can't buy a net!" option. Plus, I incorrectly assumed that the fishing rod segment would be next, so I was quite shocked when Isabelle announced that the tutorial was over after I turned in my bug encyclopedia entries.

I can give you a free rod if you want.
yea starting at night doesn't give u much to do right away but after a bit you'll be able to set it so your town folks stay up later. so being a late player wont have that much of a negative effect on ya

There are far too many sea bass in these thar waters
Here are a few pictures of the Japanese girl's town I visited. They really do not do it justice, you have to walk around it to appreciate it. There were rows filled with chocolate colored roses, gardens and other paths, and even wonderfully designed areas like a little section with a hammock and four peach trees near it.
And I thought my campsite was cool.
Also for the bug contest, try to submit crappy bugs first so you get more items. Color seems really important, and even something as common as a tiger butterfly netted more points than I expected. I currently have an 87 point Orchid Mantis in first place (catch it on white flowers at the island).

well I confirmed it... your alone tortimer island saves all that happens to it (in my case I cut the trees down and not happy bout it), and going to club tortimer online wont reset it...

That would be nice. Thanks. I added your Friend Code.

just plant new shit
also cutting down trees is good, same amount of beetles will spawn in the remaining trees, so less places to look for
To be honest, I sort of expected even more? There seems to be buzz in a real big way around it.
Whenever I go through this thread I can't help but think how much I'd love a spoiler free Animal Crossing thread, but then I realized that would be pretty much worthless because everything there is to share about this game pretty much is a spoiler.
It's a game entirely of "you can do that?!" and "that things exists?! I want it!"
Isn't ruined. Plant stuff you nab from the tour mini-games and treat it like a mini extension of your town. (hybrid grow flowers remotely, grow fruit to harvest, etc)well I confirmed it... your alone tortimer island saves all that happens to it (in my case I cut the trees down and not happy bout it), and going to club tortimer online wont reset it...

Okay, hold on, I need to get out of the island; just leave your gate open and I'll pop by in about 2 min.
0103-9461-9036 Just in case because I'm actually not on the list.
You can store items in your mail, so you essentially have +10 storage, but you can't put fish in it
Show that sea fucker who's boss. Yeah boi !
Seraphis Cain
bad gameplay lol
Wow, that's just incredible stuff. I have no ambition to do shit like that, and I'm still jealous lol
On another note, had a fun time Seraphis Cain and a non-GAF friend doing tours etc on the island. Also, sorry Buppu (dunno your GAF name offhand), it was just bad timing on your part when you joined! I'll try to catch you some other time

Thanks again for the fishing rod! It will definitely come in handy, as I can start collecting fish tonight! As for the cherries, my apologies, I realize now that I used the incorrect acronym, I meant "Local Fruit." I will plant them though, and try to add more greenery to my town.
Looking at the list of bugs, the Orchid Mantis is actually a "C" tier bug, but you likely got a really big one. I have my bugs all sorted out by the order I want to turn them in.
For E rank, got a few wharf roaches, a ton of Fruit Beetles, then some Common/Yellow Butterflies.
For D Rank, I have Tiger Butterflies, Darner Dragonflies, and Fireflies.
For C Rank, I have an Emporor Butterfly, some Laturn Flies, Horned Dynastids, a Miyama stag.
For B Rank, I have Cyclommatus Stag, Goliath Beetle, and Horned Elephants, and a Birdwing Butterfly.
Didn't find any A rank stuff, but I'm sure something from B could get 100 points. I may hold onto the bulk of my B bugs to just sell off if I can get something high in the first few attempts.

Ahaha, I always see "Looking For".
Oh well, they were just laying around.
I'm pretty sure you can buy one at the bug-off if you don't have one. Otherwise, I think I have an extra one.
As far as I hear. Nat will sell you a net for 500 bells the day of the Bug-Off.

Yes you can buy one during the Bug Off
YOU'RE A C-TIER POSTER.
Don't get too excited about the prizes though, most of the prizes he gives you are junk (I got an ugly couch and a traffic cone), but the 80+ point prize is unique and pretty nice. You might get lucky though.
