That was my daughter.  She wanted to visit someone's island and I figured you were the safest choice. LOL

I probably won't get around to playing for the first time myself today. The wife has been playing for nearly 2 hours already now. Hrm  The kids started an island an set their tents up on a far corner of the island. Now the wife has set up camp there too and made it clear she wants me there as well. Would have preferred a more central, more efficient spot...

It seems like you need the lead player(first one?) to initiate certain things.  My wife said we couldn't have a museum until she played as my character.  Is there a way to make her the lead because she will definitely play more than me.

+2

Well we got the game yesterday but I wasn't able to even try it because my daughters kept playing it for the past 24 hours. I got some time to play it this afternoon before work and managed to pay for my tent and ask for my house which will be ready tomorrow. My youngest is already on her second house paid what an addict. Anyway while I was figuring out what to do I thought it would be a nice idea to have some local coop play and it went as well as you'd expect. They both started hitting each other with nets and ran around.

Nice seeing you Gemini_Red. How have you been? I stumbled onto your account during our recent escapade to GS and wondered where you disappeared to.



Hey Supreme, good to see you.

Yeah, I'm not around much nowadays. With a soon to be 3 year old, college, marriage, and the insanity that is my job, if I was to be brutally honest...not really much of a gamer anymore.  Still, the times when I do get a game I've always been into I try to come around.

Day 2 is complete.  The museum should be up, along with my house upgrade.  I've seen some reviews, and a consistent gripe is the first week is slow, but given my schedule I am just fine with that.  Some trips to the islands netted me apples and bamboo, but I haven't seen any other fruits yet.  Oh, and tarantulas are assholes.

I only use innuendo indecipherable to anyone under 18.

He hasn't given me my dodo code. Do you even need it though? My god the online is a pain in the ass. Why can't you just open your nook phone and toggle to allow visitors? My museum is under construction. I've paid off my house loan first expansion. Almost ready to upgrade the shop.

Steel the pole vault pic is epic. I pity you guys whose families are hogging it. My Bros family is  in the house in lock down. He says it's hell.

I desperately need a second Switch. The family has been playing AC all morning on the telly, so I can't even play other games myself.

You know, if you told me the whole Corona virus was caused by Nintendo, I wouldn't entirely doubt it. The number of people who are using Animal Crossing to escape is staggering. People who I didn't even know owned a switch are talking about playing this.

Gemini is right.  Collecting miles is very addicting.  I've got a house on the way, built a pole vault, donated half of the fossils and fish needed for the museum.

I must have missed you. Michel from Israel showed up in my town. I gave him a pole vault and coconuts. Showed off my house. I made a mistake in spending miles on haircuts. That got me out of the loop of visiting islands abroad and collecting more resources. Now I'm doing mundane tasks to get nook miles so I can take another flight.

Shop is now under construction. Getting 30 iron nuggets was a task. I had to make multiple flights to do it. The smartphone app on android is great. You can use your phones mic for voice to text or voice chat.

Let's set a time to meet .  We should go by the time on this site.  It's 15:52 according to this site.  I'll open my gates at 20:00 Utc.  I may have them open sooner but I think I can at least guarantee that time.

Too soon for me.  Thanks to my family's enthousiasm, I'll only be getting started this evening.

With how all businesses are shutting down over here, getting a haircut in before all hairdressers close is the wise thing to do.
