Oh wow I wasn't sure I even got a real one - almost bought the portrait of the guy made of produce! Redd didn't even get off his boat yesterday, I spotted his boat when I was running around shaking trees.
Btw thx Trayce for the wasp-catching advice, i haven't been stung once since i started the north-facing shakes!
― Jaq, Thursday, 21 May 2020 14:11 (three years ago) link
my only thought about Redd:
where the fuck is he??? i've logged in almost every day and night, and have only seen him once.
my museum is just the mona lisa. i guess maybe it'll stay that way!

Redd shares a chance with the other special visitors (Gulliver, Leif, etc.) so you don't know what day he'll show up, if at all
― Nhex, Thursday, 21 May 2020 15:17 (three years ago) link
yeah, i read that article the other day! it just seems like i'm having bad luck .
so, here’s the tea on #ACNH NPC spawnsevery week, you’re guaranteed to get Saharah, Kicks and Leif on weekdays (if you meet their criteria, e.g. having Able Sisters built)that leaves two weekday slots that will be randomly filled by Gulliver, Label, CJ, Flick or Redd— Ninji 🇪🇺🏴🇬🇮 (@_Ninji) May 14, 2020
Players will see Leif, Kicks, and Saharah every week. There are two days a week where none of them appear; those days will be randomly filled with Flick, CJ, Gulliver, Label, or Redd.
if i understand that correctly, it means that each week i should have a 40% chance of seeing Redd (2 free weekdays where Redd has a 20% chance of appearing). i think it's been 3 weeks since i've seen him? probability of that happening is very satanic (0.6 * 0.6 * 0.6 = .216, or 21.6%)
― Karl Malone, Thursday, 21 May 2020 15:41 (three years ago) link
(for those keeping score at home, that should mean the probability of seeing Redd three weeks in a row is 6.4% (40% chance three weeks in a row = 0.4 * 0.4 * 0.4 = .064).
― Karl Malone, Thursday, 21 May 2020 15:45 (three years ago) link
do none of them show up on saturdays or sundays?

I get Gulliver a bizarrely high percentage of the time
― mh, Thursday, 21 May 2020 19:01 (three years ago) link
It took Redd 3 weeks to return, unless I missed spotting him one day. I see too much of Gulliver and Label.
― Jaq, Thursday, 21 May 2020 20:10 (three years ago) link
KK's on Saturday, SHIT, i missed him, goddamnI should just cheat and look up their schedules. i missed the turnip lady too
― Nhex, Thursday, 21 May 2020 22:09 (three years ago) link
kept missing turnips because i like to sleep forever on sundays, so we put our switch on pacific time from now on. which is extra good bc my partner works an evening shift and stuff's still open when she clocks out at 11
― Hackers (1995) (Will M.), Thursday, 21 May 2020 22:17 (three years ago) link

OK this is arse. Ive had Flick twice, Label twice, Gulliver every week, Kicks and CJ at least 3 times ...
... and Redd once.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 22 May 2020 00:33 (three years ago) link
Or moer to the point, Redd never since the first time.
(Unless once he was there and I just didnt see his boat I suppose?)
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 22 May 2020 00:34 (three years ago) link
I've had Redd's boat twice! ... and got the fake both times :(
― Nhex, Friday, 22 May 2020 00:38 (three years ago) link
You have to look at the painting! It has clues when its fake :) not always easy to spot though, I cheat and look it up online haha

In New Leaf you could tell Isabelle whether you were an early, regular or late riser and then the schedule of everyone in the town would adjust to accommodate your preferences. Booted that game up again this week and I was surprised how many little quality of life things like that I’d forgotten about, which have been inexplicably dropped for New Horizons.

sturgeons are an absolute fuck to catch
― form of mouth device (Autumn Almanac), Friday, 22 May 2020 07:11 (three years ago) link
I forgot about that early or late riser thing!
Southern users: anyone ever found more than one truffle? Theyre clearly rare (10k each!) but I did think I'dve found more than ONE by now.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 22 May 2020 07:15 (three years ago) link
TRUFFLES!
― megan thee macallan 18 year (||||||||), Friday, 22 May 2020 07:18 (three years ago) link
I want truffles
what are they used for? crafting?
― megan thee macallan 18 year (||||||||), Friday, 22 May 2020 07:19 (three years ago) link
one thing i do a lot of in this game is craft or buy wallpapers that seem cool in the abstract but become nightmarishly garish as soon as they're in a room with furniture or anything in it
― na (NA), Friday, 22 May 2020 17:05 (three years ago) link
so then i go back to the same three wallpapers i've used basically since i started the game

Truffles yeah they come as part of the fall mushroom set so yeah you need a few to make a couple of the DIY seasonal pieces.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Saturday, 23 May 2020 11:38 (three years ago) link
I'm very excited for fall now! I hope you can only dig them up under hardwood trees when one of your dog or pig neighbors is near :D
I keep catching those gigantic oarfish! I gasp every time I land one - so huge! Really glad they don't wriggle.
― Jaq, Saturday, 23 May 2020 12:46 (three years ago) link
i say this in a positive way: i can't believe i'm still playing this every day!
i haven't played a game this consistently, for weeks at a time, in a very long time. it really helps that the game is designed so that you can do your "chores" in about 20 minutes or less, but also can spend much longer if you feel like it
― Karl Malone, Saturday, 23 May 2020 16:43 (three years ago) link
yes, that's how i've enjoyed it too. it's pleasant checking in and completing a few satisfying tasks everyday as incremental progress towards a long-term goal. tbh it helps me keep some basic irl stuff in perspective b/c i'm historically bad at sticking to healthy routines. a little exercise here, a little creative pursuit there, i'm not a failure if i don't accomplish what i want all at once, etc.

yeah, same! the other day, i had a ton of bells, enough to finally do a shit ton of infrastructure week on the Boneyarden (my e-home and spiritual rejuvenation center). and it was nice, in a way, when fucking tom nook let me know that i could only build one new infrastructure item per day! that little construction dude in the hat isn't going to do two in a day! calm down! sometimes i need to be forced to do that

My critter neighbors threw me a birthday party this morning and it was honestly fun and touching. I love giving them stuff and seeing them use/wear it :)
Not doing turnips the past few weeks has let me enjoy playing more - less anxiety/stress about checking am/pm for prices etc. I've got one or two more inclines to build. Thinking about relocating my house to the alpine highland.

I think I got the party a day late because I received my switch the evening of my birthday! I thought it was nice they addressed that situation
