Looks great. I actually have an update to the rules again though...
I did that an hour ago host as TT but I have not and sold everything no problems.
oof. I just TT the rest of my week and never got anything above 170 or so. I thought for sure they would give you at least one decent return per week if you check every morning and night. Saturday afternoon now and I have to sell at 49 bells apiece. If I join another game they'll rot, right? Since I'm currently in the future.
Kinda shitty. Didn't think there was actual risk if you were diligent. Might kill my interest to keep play tbh, the game is time consuming enough just with building and design. The money needs to just be there.

Because you had a week where you could only make a ~1.5x return you might be done playing the game? Or do you just mean turnips? It's a stock market. The expectation of you getting a massive return every week would be nonsensical
I'm getting -50% return now.
But yeah, the game is time consuming enough without the money grind. I was under the impression that the grind disappeared if you did this so you could actually spend you time designing the island.
You bought them for no more than 110 and it rose to 170. You had a higher return at some point and chose to gamble for even more. There's a reason it's called the stalk market. At least with online the chance of losing money is minimized, unless you don't have NSO or simply choose not to visit other towns
I mean I know that now but that also massively increases the hassle of doing this. I thought this was a way people made the money bullshit go away. That part of the game is not fun.
bought 3k turnips yesterday for 96 each, 288k
sold 3k turnips today for 569 each 1,707,000
Profit of 1.4m.
Japanese twitter is HUGE for finding good turnip prices, and they usually want kitchen / bathroom appliances, or gold ore, or tickets/round trip.
Honestly great if youre trying to rush your house like i am

It is how people make a ton of money, but its also a risk. I'm not sure how that couldn't be clear, lol.
Check the tracker which has the highest price right now. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10mS-w-QbKQjt4ka1Bs73-D8ioOXhYXC9hHqzsA3-EY8/edit#gid=0
laoni has it @ 166. UTC+11
It is, especially if you're part of an online community where you can sell at someone elses town.
Each town cannot have a 500+ spike every week, that would be ridiculous. A spike of 150+ is normal, and so is getting crap prices all week.
A lot of the time the "risk" is fake in games like this. My fault for thinking AC would be friendlier about this sort of thing.
Wasn't looking for 500+, just 200+. I read somewhere that said wait until 200+ to sell so I figured it was a sure thing if you check in twice a day.
Turning Animal Crossing into a serious game like this is awful. Why can't everyone just be chill and benefit from each other?
Yeah if this is how it's going to be I'll just stop buying turnips
idk, hosting people to sell sounds like a huge pain in the ass. If there isn't anything in it for them I don't think many would do it.
If you need to dump them before they rot you can sell them at my town for 130, at least you won't lose money.
I don't have the stomach to play the long game. I sell as soon as I see profit because the idea of bothering someone to beg to be let into their town to sell makes me uncomfortable.
What's the most radical noon price change people have seen in a day? Is it possible to jump hundreds of bells in a day or is it typically within a set range?

Already sold, but thanks. I think they would've rotted anyway unless you also TT'd to Saturday afternoon.

Honestly? With a community this big it's just not doable for most to get a go at one user's island. I would honestly suggest to mods and admins about a way to use something like the gift/giveaway bot for the one with the winning island to set a hard limit of how many one trip people they're willing to let in, manage group sizes, manage codes via DMs/PMs, and set a rule of tipping so the host gets something out of it for their effort.
If they can keep users anonymous somehow they can have the person PM people codes, and say they are in a group of four and they'll close the gate the second the 4 people are in or something.
How do I get on the Bounty Board? I'd happily pay 750k for 3 trips if I could get 550+
Edit: just saw the google doc now that I've replied. I see how it works now. Can you put me down for 3 trips at 750k? If I get no takers I'll reconsider my bounty. I don't have Discord though. Is that a requirement?

Discord helps with coordinating, but it's not required. But please do register on the Tracker if you haven't. I can add you to the Bounty Board once you have.
People with a lot of starting capital and good connections with those with high selling prices profit. Where have I seen this before?
It's because of how much of a hassle it is letting people visit. I get it- if I have a good sell price and am going to post my Dodo Code publicly, I would like some sort of reward for not being able to use my Switch for an hour.
Today my turnip prices went from 126 to 46. So yeah I'll be on the lookout for someone else's island most likely.
