Hope it's okay to ask here - but what is the housing exterior glitch being referenced here? I'd heard of the amiibo one but thought it was fixed? Cheers 
This is interesting actually, because I was back to a 4 star for a while because of diys laying around, but upon cleaning them up couldn't for the life of me get it back to 5. I'll have to go check now.
Of course multi quote didn't work on my phone -_- a few posts up

Ugh, I knew they'd patch out the mail duplication glitch. (Good thing I tried it out myself before it was removed.) I guess it's overall...good that Nintendo patched it. It's just harder to accept for those that took advantage of it.

the housing exterior glitch refers to a villager having a different house exterior than what they usually have. it happens when you time travel either backwards at all or forwards by more than 1 day while a villager is moving in. it doesn't cause any issues other than that villager having the wrong house exterior.Hope it's okay to ask here - but what is the housing exterior glitch being referenced here?

They did fix the amiibo glitch, as far as I'm aware!
About the exterior glitch, it's a glitch that's caused only by time traveling. So it's not an issue for anyone else. I really don't think it's bothering many people, except for the unlucky few who time travelled backwards without realizing the glitch would occur.
I personally hope they don't fix it. I like using to my advantage by putting villagers into houses that are cuter than their "original" houses, and I know a lot of other players do the same thing. Since it's not harming anything and a lot of players actually like it, I wouldn't be surprised if they allow this glitch to stay in the game.

she/they! Check out my amiibocard trading post! <3
LOL! Maybe I saw Isabelle wrong this whole time
It also happens without TT. The problem is not loading the game on a day when the house is gone and the plot is up. So, if you just don’t play that day, you’ll also get the glitch.
You probably woke up to some new flower buds, which put you over into five stars. I seriously doubt they messed with the star rating calibration

That glitch is caused by skipping the plot sold day either by time travelling or not playing a day. So it is an issue even for non-time travellers.

glad to know that nmt can no longer be duped, although it's a shame that the other dupe glitch still works :c bracing myself for the new dupe glitches that will inevitably spring from this >.<
I had Redd today, but I was overdue for a visit and Saharah, Leif, and Kicks has already come this week, so that doesn’t mean anything. But it doesn’t not mean anything either. Unless it does. Or doesn’t. Wait, what were we talking about?
is the move in day when the villager is unpacking, or when the plot is listed as "sold"? i had been under the assumption that move in day meant the villager is unpacking. i accidentally TTed past punchy's unpacking day while i was cycling someone out and got really worried that i'd activated the exterior glitch, but his house looks the way it's supposed to. he was a campsite move in too. i did play on the day where the plot was listed as "sold", however. does the glitch only activate sometimes or is it about skipping the day when the plot is sold?

Sorry, I meant the "plot sold day". Because if you never log in, the house is never removed.
ah, that makes sense. i'd always heard it referred to as the move in day in reference to the glitch so i thought it was the day they were unpacking. good to know for future reference!
I had Redd today and two authentic arts.
Unfortunately that dupe glitch isn't going anywhere, I've already seen several posts popping up on how to continue pumping duped items into the game economy by not updating the game. It's...long-winded, but there will be people who continue to do it while stuff like NMT are as valuable as they are. Now that the dupe has been discovered, it'll always be there.
