time capsule woes...

[flimsical]

apparently, some time ago, i buried a time capsule for Lolly.
the thing is, i haven't the foggiest where i put it and i've scoured my town EVERYWHERE and it's still nowhere to be seen?
is it possible it's hiding under a path or flower/shrub?
or am i just looking with my eyes closed?


i crie, i don't wanna let my little floofins down.

Even if the spot is now covered up, the time capsule should move to the next closest open space. Happened to me yesterday with Marshal's capsule. It's there somewhere...

I tend to bury my capsules right in front of their mailboxes, just so I don't lose them...

 

[flimsical]

oh phew, i was hoping that would be the case! i'll just have to look harder when i go back on ~
i usually bury them near my bench overlooking the beach but it's not there ;
i think from now on i'll bury them right by my house or something, i was almost convinced it was gone forever

 

[lunachii]

Nothing can cover them, you just gotta look closer I guess, maybe behind buildings or trees. I always bury the capsules right next to their houses so I don't forget xD

 

[flimsical]

i know i'll definitely be doing that from now on!
i'm just psyching myself up now to hunt again, i'll probably find it straight away now that i've made a fuss over it

I always bury time capsules beside their houses, but I think you can also bury them on the beach.

 

[flimsical]

oooh!
i never thought to check the beach, maybe i had a moment of madness + buried it there...

 

[Miii]

I always bury mine directly behind my villagers' houses because it's really easy to remember :3

 

[Shimmer]

I always put the time capsule on the side of the villager's house that requested the time capsule, that way I won't lose it!

Hope you find it soon! I try to bury it near their house so I don't have to look far lol. But I totally sympathise, sometimes a villager will ask me to dig their capsule up and I have that "uh oh" moment where I hope I did bury it near their house and can find it!

I was thinking I completely forgot where I buried Marinas too...hoping it's somewhere behind my house.
Now I have lots of paths it limits the spaces I need to search though and you should find the same thing when searching for yours....the more paths you have, the less options there are for where it could be!

 

[flimsical]

good news!
i found it right by Ankha's house (where else?)
but i'm definitely burying them near their houses from now on, even if i wrote down where i buried their stuff i'd end up losing that...
lesson learned at least!

its always a star.... thats what makes it confusing.... you dont know if its a fossil or a gyroid X.X

I bury mine between the police station/ city hall. Another town I bury it by retail. It's a place I go to every day and I always see the star.

I can't bury them in front of a villagers house because of flowers, pathways/ shrubs.

Like the idea of using the beach. Bury it by the boat and you'll see the star when you go to the island.

Maybe you buried it behind a house and you forgot?

I totally bury them right by the villagers house so I'll never misplace them. But my time capsule woe is when you go to click bury and accidentally click open and have to go return it to them and make them sad. =[
