Typically, HHA special order mailings arrive at 9:00am. I've already made my next batch for tomorrow (oddly nothing from Reggie's house, though).

Ah, thanks.

How long does it usually take for things you ordered at Nooks to arrive in your mailbox?

In my experience, anywhere from 15 minutes to a few hours. I haven't found a pattern.

 

[Linius]

Oh I'm happy with that, since I don't have to wait whole day then. I just had to chance to catalog some Sleek furniture and I just ordered it. Can't wait to fix some of my livingroom.

Oh brilliant. I just got the QR so this will be my first scan.

Edit: It is done.

Here's my turnip prices so far this week:

MON AM - 105
MON PM - 93
TUE AM - 116
TUE PM - 131

Just want to check I'm reading the guide right - should I get at least one more increase tomorrow morning if this is either of the spike patterns? Also, a further increase on wednesday afternoon if it's the large spike?

I know it's possible that it could be a random pattern but I'm tempted to wait till tomorrow morning to see how it progresses. I think if I get a small increase tomorrow morning I should be on the large spike and if I get a sufficient increase tomorrow it's a small spike and I should cash in then?

 

[UberTag]

It can be designed into gold color. DO IT

Gold super toilets are a nice idea but I'm not parting with any Gold ore until I've banked all of the gold furniture series from Cyrus.
Silver will have to do. In fact, the Super Toilet I ordered from Reggie will be getting that treatment shortly.

You've got that slightly backwards.

Big Spike = 3 increases (i.e. you'll have a monster in the morning)
Little Spike = 4 increases (minor bump in the morning, slightly bigger bump in the afternoon)
Random = Have fun

You may want to consider enacting Early Bird ordinance today to give yourself a 6-hour window to collect a turnip winfall if you hit big in the AM.
Without it you'll only have a 3-hour block to work with.

so Elvis the Lion traded me his throne (an 800,000 bell item) for my Phonograph (a 1,800 bell item). He thought he scammed me...

He's leaving tomorrow, so I'm kind of glad I snagged that item from him. He always kind of creeped me out. Yesterday he mentioned that he hates people who paint their nails because nails are meant to be sharp and used to hunt prey. Elvis is a lion. Elvis' nearest neighbor is Zell the Gazelle. I think Zell should lay low for awhile.

 

[Randdalf]

So I accidentally reset my town and using TT to get back to where I am while checking turnip prices.

My current one is 498, anyone want to bite at that price?

Tell me in 10 mins otherwise I'm gonna TT again.

oops, misread lol

If I snagged him from you would he still have the throne in his house?

Cute! I didn't know they sit on the stumps.

I have no idea if his house resets (the throne was part of his default house) if he moves to a friend's village or not. Probably not.

Thanks! Will hold out till the morning then and see how it progresses. Won't bother with changing ordinances though as I should be able to catch the shop on the bus to work and I only have 1500 to sell this week

 

[PrintedCrayon]

I'm so glad that this will be the first thing I scan in the QR Code Reader.

 

[UberTag]

What was the link to that turnip price pattern calculator/wizard?

My prices have gone: 95, 91, 88, 155.

That's a nice sign. Points towards a big spike in Wednesday afternoon. Doubt a Random pattern would trend that way. Not sure if you'd see a turnaround that substantial from a Little Spike, either.

 

[Gvaz]

Are there any mspaint checklists that cover ART and FOSSILS?

There's one that covers bugs and fish/ocean items.

[Antiwhippy]

For an item that is relatively hard to get axes sure do break easily.

Finally caught the char. Now for the violin beetle. It's now day 4 of rain in my town.

So the char will spawn in rain? I had ran inside and out my town hall (close to my waterfall) about 50 times and just assumed it didn't spawn in the rain. Guess I'll keep trying.

The Char can definitely spawn in the rain.
5 days left in the month to catch it, the Violin Beetle and various other critters after today.

Leif had better have an axe for me in his store in 10 minutes... or else.

 

[Tom_Cody]

To my knowledge there are no unique events. Yearly at worst. The only thing you could miss is spotpass-sent stuff like Reggie's house or Bestbuy items. But you shouldn't even miss the spotpass/streetpass stuff if your 3DS is connected.

What you will get anyway are weeds. Lots of weeds.

Thanks.

I play 1 sometimes 2 sessions of 30mins per day, I don't think it would get much in the way of your Luigi game (I'm still monster hunting a lot). And well, you already missed the solstice and father's day, which won't come back for a year unless you time travel.

Unfortunately 30 minutes/day is more normal gaming routine.

I think I am going to pick this up and just try to play it from time to time. It is different enough from Luigi that it shouldn't be a distraction.

Two specific questions:

-Is the spot pass stuff date specific or will it start up from the beginning once I get my game going? KI:U and FE:A both seemed to spool out spotpass content in sequence moreso than from the specific date I turned it on but I know that stuff like special Miis can be date specific. Did I already permanently miss Reggie's house?

-How far in will I need to get before I can receive street/spot passes? I am leaning towards getting it and just setting it up that much to start with. Can I do this in under an hour?

Butch is a great guy.

Given AC's pacing, it's probably going to take you a few days - not of doing things, but you just gotta wait that long.

 

[MicH]

I know I ptomised that you guys could come to my town and catch Violin beetles, but my town is suffering a thunderstorm, so I'm afraid that can't happen

 

[Courage]

Do we get to marry Isabelle? (✿◠‿&#9696

Butch is a great guy.

He sure is. He was in my original Wild World, so hes really special.

I just caught one with a grand total of 1 stump in my town, hoping on the off chance he might spawn.

 

[Jintor]

you can't even send her letters of appreciation!

LOOK AT THIS PRETTY SECRETARY

Any chance I can pick up the harp this afternoon?

 

[Courage]

I love my town tune.

 

[Linius]

Two album arts I made

 

[Jintor]

I love my town tune.

I love that composer thing. I want an extension of it.

Research me a music shop.

How do I use QR codes in the game?

I need to dump Katie with someone. Anyone want?

The Dream Suite opened up today. Anyone got any essential towns I should visit?

How long is Club LOL? It's already renovating in its 2nd day.

Also I'm running out of closet space

Mine's 4200-2149-6879, though it's basically just flowers everywhere.

Five days, I think.

Also I'm running out of closet space

Museum exhibit rooms for gyroids has been a godsend here.

 

[beta_fuse]

It's been 4 days since I got the signatures for Club LOL yet nothing has happened since. I don't see any construction site, I don't have the option to build it as a Public Woks Project and nobody is talking about it. Is this normal?

 

[IronBubbles]

Sure. Added ya.

Here's mine: 1607-1491-4749

Added and gates open.

0000-0100-0017 is the official NOJ town. It's pretty nuts.

 

[Kid Ska]

Hey, can someone explain what making a person your best friend does? I guess I skipped the in-game explanation.

 

[BDrummer1606]

Hi, new to gaf but have a question!

When having someone appear at a campsite, how do you get that person to stay in the town? This awesome kangaroo came to town and I want her to stay! Any help would be great, thanks!

 

[Animekatt]

So the char will spawn in rain? I had ran inside and out my town hall (close to my waterfall) about 50 times and just assumed it didn't spawn in the rain. Guess I'll keep trying.

What I did too was, if I didn't see the fish shadow, I did the "Save and Continue" trick to try and respawn it.

You can send messages to your best friend whenever you're playing AC and they're online. They don't even have to be in your village and they'll receive it.

I asked the same thing last page but didn't get an answer. :-(

 

[Alec]

I asked the same thing last page but didn't get an answer. :-(

Yes, it's normal. 5 days after the signatures, it will open on its own. No other action is needed.

 

[Linius]

Trying to get her out of my town, but she's not really cooperative

Making room for a good cause.

Yeeh turnips

In addition to being able to message BFs, you can also open your gate only for BFs.

You can also set your gate to only allow your best friends in.
