Now it's time for a more serious matter. I've spent probably six or seven mile tickets and on every single one of those travels I've landed on an island with THE EXACT SAME FRUIT I HAVE ALREADY. That's 12K miles wasted on fucking oranges! Seems like RNGesus hasn't been kind to me, no.

Meanwhile my daughter travels TWICE and the first time she lands on an island with infinite blue butterflies that go for 4K each. Second time? An island with INFINITE TARANTULAS.

Of course, everything has a price. HA!

I don't have an answer to that. Like I said my wife tried to donate to get a bigger store but the dialogue didn't trigger for her.  Who the hell wants to drop stuff for another to pick up constantly?

I'm calling the Nintendo hotline over this today. Must have been 20 years since I last did so...

If it's not possible we'll probably be starting over altogether so that my wife can be the first among equals.

I found a thread on NoA's website with people complaining about the same thing. Apparently there's no workaround. We'll be starting over today. Bit of a bummer we'll lose our cool island though. We had an Isle de Paris thing going on with a piece of land in the center of our island surrounded by 2 rivers.

At least it can be patched, you won't have to send in your carts for a firmware update.

Long live progress  Nyaa

I don't know if it will be patched though, that would require Nintendo viewing it as a flaw and not a design choice.
It's baffling that this wasn't known beforehand. None of the articles I've read about the game have mentioned this. I can only assume it could fly below the radar because most of the gaming press probably played the game alone and thus weren't confronted with the issue.

I even went to settings on the title screen to look into just deleting myself.  If I deleted myself the whole island would be deleted.

I find that to be very poetic.

On the other hand, whatever you chose has no real consequence, as you, just as everything else, are just a figment of my imagination and nothing in this world is real beyond my own consciousness.

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.

Any luck with that yet? Our son's the leader, but we grownups are going mad from his snail's pace.

I don't think it's possible. If you click settings from the title screen and read the info about deleting human characters.

Lol I just read about gg's woes. Let them burn gg. If they behave like savages they have no business to conduct in the town of a well behaved English gentleman.

They're not bad. Only a 3 trees cut and a couple of rocks smashed. People are getting greedy for bamboo though and there is no way to produce more for visitors.

Are we switch friends? I couldn't find your name on my list?

You should print and frame the pole vault pic.
