Oh my god.
- Hop around islands for like 15 mins trying to find one set to nighttime
- Come across a twilight one, figure I can wait a bit
- Go on a tour so I can come back with no one else there
- Start setting up
- Another player arrives, starts cutting down the palm trees I had needed for the bugs
- God damn it
- Go on another tour
- Finally alone again, start setting up once more
- Two players arrive
- Suddenly, I can't pick up anything from the ground
- It's gonna crash isn't it
- *WHOLE ISLAND CRASHES TO HELL AND BACK*
- God damn it not again
- Start from square 1
- Find another twilight island
- Go on tour, come back to empty island, begin setting up, another player arrives, can't pick things up again
- Oh you are kidding me
- *YET ANOTHER CRASH I S2G*
- Give up and cry

Strange little encounter just now...
Pink haired girl came along as I was setting up, asked what I was doing (just like every other sap I've met). I tell her I've had to explain to about 7 different people today already, that I'm setting up to catch bugs. She asks if those 7 people were cute, I say they weren't particularly, then she asks if I think she's cute. I say sure, kinda weirded out. She asks how old I am, I say 22. Now, just like most people who ask this her first response is "wow", followed by an awkward silence. She theb asks for my irl eye colour, I tell her it's blue. After another minute or so, she says she's leaving, but not before calling me "cutie". I was playing as one of my male characters, so that likely had a lot to do with it, but still...some kids...

Ok, this is straight up weird. Not twenty minutes later, she happened to arrive back on the same island. Noticing I was there, she said "You...", like we were about to have some kind of showdown. I said "Yes, me", before hastily explaining that this was the same island we had met on earlier, in case she thought I was somehow trying to creepily follow her. She seemed reassured by that, and we kept talking.
Here's the weird part. She asked if I'g got a girlfriend yet, and upon me saying no, she launched into a bunch of rather telling questions. She asked what type of girls I liked, what type of boy I was, and if I "liked" her. Remember, through all of this I don't even know how old she was, even though she knew I'm most assuredly an adult. I felt kinda odd about asking her, and telling her that I am in fact a woman, so I just left the issues alone. Eventually I filled my basket, and kinda skulked off the island as this girl was practically halfway through asking me to go out with her. Never had that one happen before.
