This thread honestly stresses me out. Did you know that you can be bad at Animal Crossing? Because I'm bad at Animal Crossing. I've played like 5 hours every day since launch and everyone else's towns just so much more amazing than mine. I honestly feel like I'm playing it wrong and don't know anything about it when I come in here :( .

that's the great thing about AC is that you don't have to be amazing at it! Over time you will learn all the tricks and best strategies, but most importantly, have fun!

Do note, this thread has a bunch of time travelers and dupers, so a lot of the really good people aren't playing in spirit of the game.

Even those playing 100% straight are just prioritizing differently, no need to stress if yours doesn't match theirs, just do things how you want. The only way to play this game wrong is to be stressed out while doing so.

Yeah, this thread isn't great for my anxiety when it comes to this game. Everyone else is getting awesome villagers, Stringfish for days, cool mystery island spawns, and low turnip prices whilst I'm getting awful villagers, no Stringfish after 300+ bait, flat/boring islands and the highest turnip prices possible.

That's adding on to my anxiety over whether I'm fucking up everything, of course! :(

Hello, everyone. I am going to open my gates with a Dodo Code and go afk while I do some chores. I have Mabel in my town today. Of note in her inventory are the Zap Suit and a red fedora.

The flowers in my shop are:

Orange windflowers
White windflowers
Red mums
Yellow mums
Red tulips
White tulips

I have left a row of each of pears, peaches, and cherries next to the airport, so you may take one if you need those fruits. No compensation is required, but I would be thrilled to get some apples and oranges.

It will take some time to make a unique beautiful town It took me 3 years in city folk to make my town look awesome.

We're setting up a bounty board for people to offer up big cash payouts to anyone with a high turnip price willing to privately host us, individually or in groups, to sell off our stupid amount of turnips that will require multiple trips.
www.resetera.com

Animal Crossing: New Horizons |OT| Eternal Debt

best practice is to only build plots of land when i invite a camper to stay, right? so as to avoid random animals?

I'm all for it. I have 8770 Turnips and I promised the whoever manages to get 400+ Sell price will get a 20% cut of my entire earnings. Since 87 Slots worth of Turnips will require three trips due to the max 40 space inventory, It'll definitely be worth it for the hoster to deal with my nonsense of loading and unloading my Turnips to sell for profit.

It would be insane though if my island happened to be the high sell spot for this week. I'm mean my luck has been good lately, but not THAT good.

So I made my first Tarantula friendly island. It turned out better than expected, lots of tarantulas spawning. Now just waiting for Flick to make big money.

Nah don't let it get to you and just have fun going at your own pace.

Though note some of the tips (save for the duping) so it can help you out in the long run such as catching tarantulas safely and making your own Tarantula island as its a great way to make the amounts needed for the house upgrades and later infrastructure costs.

There's no wrong way to play Animal Crossing.

While this is my first Animal Crossing i have started to realize THIS 1000%

You'll drive yourself insane if you try to do what a lot of those other people are doing. I've been playing games in this series for about 15 years and am still pretty terrible at decorating and the like; just do what you wanna do without worrying about having an island that looks like a magical wonderland.

Yay~! It only took 260 Bait. Jeesus. I hope there aren't too many fish that are more rare than the String Fish in the Critterpedia.

And you have to fish Oarfish in the Southern Hemisphere? Could anyone open their doors so I could try to catch it? :(

Edit: Nevermind, I'm wrong.

Got lucky with today's hot item in my island - natural wooden chair. Sold for over 4k bells. Cleaned out my island and two Nook Tickets. Paid off a bridge and an incline for tomorrow.

So I'll put you down for 750k then?

Less than 50 pages until an OT2 for ACNH! You guys have all talked so much that you'll be making this my first OT to go to a 2nd thread.

Anyone have any great star fragment recipes? I've only seen the wand, a rocket and the Aries rocking horse. I have some fragments sitting around but nothing I'm keen to craft...

you only need inventory space to shuffle them to storage (floor of your house or outside), and totake to another island if you sell somewhere else. Bear in mind 10 stacks will cost 100k bells at 100 each because you're buying 1000 turnips per stack. So you might not be able to afford that many anyway

I'm personally keeping to no more than 40 stacks - so if I sell on someone else's island I can do it in one trip
Great, thanks for the insight. I'm punting till next week when I'm more organized :)

There's a lot to that. A good deal of people cheat their way through the progress. Take things at your own pace and you will have a town just as nice.

If we manage to get a Turnip price of 500 that sounds about right. However if it's only 400 for sale wouldn't 700,000 be 20% of 3.5 Million
Yeah, I'm try to keep to the metric of 500k as the floor and 250k for each additional trip. So 3 trips - 750k. Instead of working percentages I want the board to big a fixed amount so as to be more reliable for hosts to know what they're getting. As well as basing it on the assumption the price we get is at least 500.

Ever since these three blue Pansy's sprouted on my island, I've had pretty much an endless storm of Peacock Butterflies and the occasional Emperor.

It's self sustaining for money and has made my most recent Nook Island trips feel pointless, especially since the last three I went to were useless with very little decent resources.
