Gracie came to town!

[Violit]

Which should be a grand old hooray but she asked for the modern clothing theme. I'm not really in a position to wifi at the moment which makes this twice as hard.

If I use the Gracie reset where you go to just before 6am will she give me a new theme or am I out of luck?

Hooray for Gracie, boo for modern theme.

Yay for you! Hope you pass your first check!

I still haven't had Gracie in my town yet ugh.. she doesn't know what she's missing..

I TTed to pass all the tests in one day- if that's what you're looking to do as well, here's how I did it. Pass the test, save, quit. Reload but change the date to the following day. Emerge from your house, save and quit. Reload, but change the date to the day Gracie appeared. Repeat these steps until you pass them all. I also talked to my villagers every day, to make sure I didn't lose anyone.

Anyway, 'grats on getting her to show up in the first place. I know some folks have had a hard time with that, even after meeting the requirements.

 

[Violit]

I'm not going to even pass this check, I have one item. :'D

I'm throwing a self pity party and you're all going to be invited. :'D

I wish I had an answer for your question. I'm wondering about a Gracie reset also. I'd like to know if I save and continue after seeing Gracie, but before I talk to her, can I quit without saving if she gives me a look I don't want (like Modern--I have a shirt for that look, but nothing else), and will she give me a different look after I reset and talk to her again for the first time?

You could try the tt trick anyway, it's worth a shot to see if you get a new theme!

Exactly! And she'll be around after 5 PM- if you at least have theme appropriate gear cataloged, you can order an outfit to meet her request and pass after the 5 PM mail shows.

I'm glad it works this way since that's exactly how I planned on playing it. I had my first Gracie visit last Friday. I happened to have Sporty clothes on-hand, so it wasn't a problem. Most anything else, though, and I'd have had to order from the cataloge and hope she was still around after 5:00.

When does she go? Midnight?

Now that I don't know, sorry. I'd say get it done before 6 just to be on the safe side.

I swear, Gracie visits are such a source of angst, simply because she appears so rarely. Note to anyone that doesn't have TIY yet- just start assembling outfits for each theme now. Store them in a 2nd floor museum space and be done with it 'til the time comes.

TT'ing for Gracie works. I went forward a date spoke to my villagers, and TT'ed back and she gave me a much more manageable theme: rock 'n' roll. :'D Aaah thank you so much!

 

[Snow]

huzzah!! if you have outfits, you might want to just get all 4 checks over with now.

 

[Divergent]

I think you only need 2 items of the theme to pass the check.
