    Buying ROCKET that’s necessary for crafting the Robot Hero

    That is a wonderful offer! How about if I hop on a DAL charter to your island and bring the materials with me? Just let me know when it would be convenient for you. THANK YOU (x 1,000,000)!

    Buying  ROCKET that’s necessary for crafting the Robot Hero

    Celeste just won’t bless me with the recipe DIY card for the rocket, so I’m looking to buy one that you have already crafted (or could build for me). I will pay - quite generously - in IGB or NMT (or a combination of the two) and the materials (star fragments and iron nuggets) that the rocket...

    The Dream Address Thread

    Stop by PHOG Isle the next time you’re in the mood for a virtual visit to a casual 5-star island. It’s named after Forrest “Phog” Allen (1885-1974), the legendary men’s basketball coach at the University of Kansas. You can pay your respects to Coach Allen’s legacy, visit nursery plots where...

    English translation for electric sign?

    I just bought the round electric wall sign from Harvey at the campground for 5 Meow coupons. It's bright and colorful, but I can't tell if it displays a meaningful message in Japanese - in which case I would appreciate your help with a translation - or if it is just an artful approximation of a...

    Who is your first uchi villager?

    Cherry - she rocks!

    Who is your first cranky villager?

    Gruff . . . but he's been with me for over two months and he isn't really very cranky at all.

    What inspired your Animal Crossing town name?

    I'm a Buddhist, so I decided to name my town "Nirvana" and then try to live in it in ways that encourage kindness, compassion, service to others, etc. It has been a fun experiment! To help keep me on the right path, I recently created an alternate character, Bante, who is a monk that takes care...

    How many hours have you logged?

    I started playing ACNL on August 3, 2016 . . . and, as of this evening, I've logged 758 hours and 57 minutes with the game (according to the Activity Log on my new 3DS XL). Time well and happily spent, as far as I'm concerned!

    HHA HELP?? : No, Lyle... YOU'RE busting MY chops... Bang.

    I'm also fairly new here (and to ACNL, too) - and I despise the snooty, spying, bossy HHA . . . so I just ignore them! I hope to someday catch one of them sneaking around in my house at 0600 . . . and feed the intruder to a shark out on the island later in the day. ;) I can order you a claw...

    ever accidentally sell an item you needed?

    During my first couple of weeks in the game, I got so excited when I had lots of fish to sell at Re-Tail that I sold my shovel and fishing rod, too. I had to go back to shaking trees and dodging bees to grab bells while I waited for replacements to show up at Nookling Junction. Ever since, I...

    What ordinance do you use and why?

    I use the Beautiful Town Ordinance because: (1) it keeps unwatered flowers from dying; (2) it almost entirely eliminates weeds; and (3) it means that you NEVER catch another old tire or rusty can when you're fishing. I think it also get more villagers involved in doing some watering - and that...

    Trying to think of a PERFECT town name

    SnowStar. SnowRose. IceTulip. MoonRose. WindRose. RosyMoon. SnowMoon. Probably all are too simple/obvious, but they are what popped into the cold, windy, vacant space where my brain used to be! :p

    Old Folks

    Hi there, fellow "Old Folks!" I made my first post to TBT yesterday, so I'm definitely a "newbie." I'm also O-L-D (at least in chronological terms!): 65. I just started playing ACNL in August, 2016, but I've already put in almost 600 hours trying to help my village ("Nirvana") evolve. Ah...

    I'm older than Tortimer!

    I just got lucky ... When I was entering my user name, I just included the spaces unconsciously - thanks to decades of using an archaic device known as a manual typewriter - and the system accepted it. Thanks for the welcome! I just spent a few moments surveying your artwork. WOW!!! You are...

    I'm older than Tortimer!

    I started playing ACNL three months ago - and I am happily addicted to it! I've put in over 500 hours already (lots of time to play, since I'm retired) and I figure I'll be around for at least 5,000 more. I love the update that was just released and can't wait to get those amiibo cards that are...
