How did everyone do in the Bug Off?

[Tiffany]

Hi everyone,
How did yall do in the bug off this weekend? I did pretty well. I was totally unprepared for the first bug off so even though I won I only got one piece of bug furniture. This time I planned ahead(I got some great tips from this site) and caught plenty of bugs in advance.
This time I got 5 pieces of the bug furniture(only 6 more to go). I just wish there was a way to know which of the big(rare) bugs to turn in first. I had decided to turn in my golden beetles last thinking they would get the best scores(wrong). So I started turning in my other beetles(I had a bunch).
One of my first ones(a goliath beetle) got 141 points. Which was great except none of the bugs I had left came close to beating it(best after that was 129 for a golden beetle). If I had turned in other bugs first I could've got more bug furniture. But what can you do right?
I found a bug rating chart on thonky but I think it's a little off. Some bugs get way less than that chart says they should,I think a couple bugs are missing and the fruit beetle is listed on 2 categories(I'm sure it's a typo). But it was helpful. Also I wasn't sure if Nat would except cicada shells but he does(mine got a whopping 3 pts each, lol).
Anyway I hope everyone did well and good luck next time!

I only came away with two pieces of furniture (but I don't horde before events, I only play what's in my pockets after my final run to Reese and what I catch on the day) but I won with a rainbow stag at 108 points.

I came in first with 73 points with a Raja B. Butterfly. I didn't think you could take a bug from a previous day and use that. Now that I know I'll remember to for next month. I got only one piece of furniture I think, but that's alright.

First with 81 points! RIP Banded dragonfly
(Merry was sneaking around trying to catch it so I just decided to nab it. I'm such a sensible mayor.)

 

[Sakubo]

It was so easy, I just got a Rainbow Stag and turned it in for 100 points. I did get a Lady Bug carpet though.

Congratulations to everyone who participated! I didn't since I restarted and I was on vacation, but I still hope everyone is happy with their trophy. It sounds like everyone did really good!

I won with an 80-point jewel beetle. My villagers must not try very hard.

 

[Smeddertoriboy]

I think I only got two pieces of furniture, the last bug-off that happened I didn't have the game (or the 3DS for that matter) but I managed to win so now I have a golden trophy

 

[Lucsy]

I tried to collect all of the items, but it didn't worked out, so just settled with 3.
Got 1st with 117 and 2nd on my other char with a last minute catch.

 

[jenikinz]

I won with 121 point goliath...next time I will be better prepared...size apparently doesn't matter to this crazy lizard! I only got the honeybee chest...the other two items I got are things I can get from Timmy and Tommy I also missed the award ceremony because I was out that night and all my villagers were bummed out about it getting "called off" (every.single.one.of.them.complained!) I was so tempted to TT just so I could do the ceremony but there will be another bug off next month and hopefully I will be around for the entire day and won't miss the ceremony.

 

[Rune]

I won 138 with a Golden Stag and got a ton of furniture, however I got a bajillion doubles and I'm missing the the stag chair from my catalogue :c

 

[TOASTY]

I wasn't able to get any bugs beforehand, but I managed to win with a Saw Stag worth 95 points.
