[WARNING] A warning on using Club Tortimer

But alas you can make more medals faster playing with 3 other people. Also sometimes it's hard to make trustworthy friends to enter your town and join you on the boat to your island. It's more safe going to club tort. (Assuming nothing similar this happens, and you're not hunting beetles)

I've heard that. I'm not saying I don't believe you, but how many medals can you earn per tour? I earn 16 medals per tour for the elite scavenger hunt tour when that shows up (it seems to often on my island) and it typically only takes me 2-3 minutes out of the IIRC 6 minutes it gives you.

Edit: The elite hammer and tuna-kahuna tours are great for medals too. The elite hammer gives either 14 or 16, forget which. Tuna-kahuna gives 20. Again, you can get all of these by yourself. Unless Club Tortimer gives more than 16-20 medals per tour, I think it's more reliable to play by myself if I'm playing just for medals, and not to have fun with people.

I don't understand why people go onto Club Tortimer to do their bug hunting because other people will just grief and scare bugs/fish.

Never understood that either.
Nintendo didn't think people could be such jerks on Animal Crossing. Back in wild world, You weren't punished if you turned of you're game during Wi-Fi.. Now the other players can punish YOU by scaring away everything you attempt to catch, and holding you for ransom.
And it seems like Club Tortimer is greifer PARADISE, and I don't even have the game yet.

Totally agree.

I just use Club Tortimer to meet worldwide ACNL players, I never though about bug hunting in other islands.
 
Well done for sticking to your guns AND wasting this bottom feeder's time.
People like him are the reason I only go to club tortimer to see if anything I want is being sold. And because I really don't want to socialise with random strangers just because we're at the same place at the same time.
 
I only go onto Club Tortimer to speak French. It's funny when people don't understand '' Anglais ''
 
I have only had a couple "Hostage" experiences, and a few annoying people, but whatever lol, that is the internet for ya, expect stupid people. One time I went when I had a really dark tan and this german person said "Can I ask a question" and I said "Yes?" They said" How did you got brown^^" it made me laugh really hard it was just funny to me idk why lol. I wasnt expecting it at all :P

Wait...

But isn't using Club Tortimer to farm beetles essentially griefing? Not the other way around?

I can't count the number of times I've had to exit/reenter Club Tortimer because the person I got partnered up with was farming beetles.

That's one way to look at it, but I don't really agree. People go for different reasons, some people don't want to go on tours and just want to meet new people while they do their usual schtick. You could call a lot of things griefing if we're going to include things like that.
 
I'm sorry to hear that this happened to you! Some players are truly mean-spirited. It's a sad but true fact of gaming. I support your decision not to indulge in this player's scam. ;)
Hey Oriana.

On Topic: I would personally say "Bye!" and flick my Wi-Fi switch.
The other player would lose as much as I would.

But it completely turns their advantage into their disadvantage.
 
To be completely honest, if I was in your situation.. I wouldn't have let him get the best of me. 99k is nothing especially for someone who beetle hunts. I actually would've laughed in his face & switched the wifi off myself! Sure, you put time into catching those beetles.. but I definitely would not have spent any longer than a minute on that island after a threat. I don't care if I have to pull the switch.

I will not let someone ruin ACNL for me! Sorry that you had a bad experience tho! Not everyone is nice :(
 
I'm sorry to hear you lost your time and items. Sometimes people just can be rude.
Next time just do your catching in your own island that way nobody bother you.
I never like to catch bugs, fish, and etc in multiplayer server. Since it just annoying cause people keep coming and going so there is a lot of loading time. I usually go there just to buy items that's all.

You kinda people IMO are the scummiest of CT visitors

[3min loading/saving time]

me: Hello!
you: ...
you leave
[another 3 min waiting period]
thanks for wasting 6mins of my life

...Because the people who OP is complaining about are less "scummy" than people like Sour of Hanoi?

When I go to Club Tortimer, I want to make bells. So, I chop down all but two palm trees and go from there. I don't want to talk to people :/

Scummy? Really? Annoying, maybe. I don't play to be the entertainment of other people. I don't do small talk, it's actually kind of painful for me, so I check out what's being sold, buy if there's something I need and leave. Of course if there is someone and they say hello, I won't stay silent, but I won't stick around either. You can't expect a perfect stranger to want to do what you want to do just because you are at the same place. I wouldn't be going at all had Nintendo not made it necessary to go there to get the club tortimer exclusives.

EDIT: And brofist to oath2order ;)
