Thought there would be a thread about this. Anyone here interested? There was a great direct about it today. I’m getting all the AC merch!

Could I join the WhatsApp group please? Grin

Could I join too please?

Im not checking MN as much recently but keep popping on, o can't do PMs on the app which where I read the threads, and I can't do threads on my browser due to ads which is where I send and read me PMs.

I sent some PMs already but could others asking to join the chat please send me a PM as it's a lot quicker than me checking the thread and back and forthing from app to phone browser as I try check my messages at least once a day and I can reply straight away. I'm only checking the thread once a week or so. :)

Complete rookie question here. My reclusive teen has just started playing AC. I've never played anything like this but if I did could it be a good way to bond? (she has slight learning disabilities and normal conversation is hard going - was thinking it might give us something in common?). It sounds fun

hi!!! I have found my people! DH bought animal crossing when it came out, i was like "what's that? It looks well rubbish" after watching the advert. Oh, how foolish and wrong i was! I am not thoroughly addicted!

I've been going potty trying to find non-native fruit. I must have been on 20 island visits with my nook miles tickets. Pears pears pears, as far as the eye can see. I did get bamboo island a couple of times, so that's good, but besides that, endless pears. Thankfully last night, i visited a friends island and finally have peaches!!! I cannot believe quite how happy and excited this makes me. We've cleared some space and planted them, so should have a lovely peach orchard coming along soon. I've also gone a bit bonkers planting plants and trying to grow hybrid flowers. My island is a bug lovers dream, as it's a sea of cosmos, roses, tulips, hyacinths, pansies and lilys (i've still got to plant my mums), but it's rather messy. And my poor watering can manages to water about a 1/4 of them before breaking lol. I need a sprinkler system Grin if only! I have managed to get some hybrids though, so really chuffed with that.

It would be great to do some visiting or have visitors sometime. I don't have loads to trade yet (besides the pears of course Grin) and i can spare some of the roses, tulips and hyacinths for sure, and probably some of the others :D

misskatamari · 07/05/2020 09:14

oooh i don't know how true it is either, but I read that if other people water your plants, there is a higher chance of hybrids forming

misskatamari · 07/05/2020 09:16

i've just seen there is a whatsapp group as well. It would be amazing to join if that's okay, although i understand if it's been set up a while and you aren't having new members x

Mummybearsporridge · 07/05/2020 09:28

PM sent to you @misskatamari

misskatamari · 13/05/2020 13:40

I've pm'd you @Mummybearsporridge x

Hi, would love to the WhatsApp group if it's still taking in newbies.
I'm loving AC so far but can't catch a scorpion for love nor money!

MustBeThin · 15/05/2020 15:30

Squash I caught one a few days ago, you have to sneak slowly with your net and every time the scorpion turns to face you you have to stay still, then continue to follow it when it turns round. It took ages to get close enough to swipe it

ashtyler · 15/05/2020 22:44

I'd like to join too, if the WhatsApp group is still open

wedding2020 · 16/05/2020 07:52

I’d also love to join if it’s still open :)

ritzbiscuits · 16/05/2020 07:57

Just wanted to share this lovely video of the musicians performing the AC theme.

Makes you forget all that's going on in the world for 2 minutes!

Nonotmenori · 18/05/2020 15:20

Hello everyone I started playing last month and I'm hooked. I've no friends or anyone on local play that comes up. Can anyone tell me how to get apples and pears? I've got cherry, oranges, peaches and coconuts. Happy to swap with anyone with apples and pears please.

Lockdownlife · 19/05/2020 12:59

Oh my goodness. I ordered a switch yesterday and I'm going to download animal crossing when it comes. Got an email saying it's been dispatched so hopefully get it just in time for the weekend!

Saffzy · 20/05/2020 14:23

Used to read this thread before I got my switch and animal crossing, now I have them, I’m throughly addicted. Could I join the whatsapp group too please?

Lockdownlife · 20/05/2020 14:42

My delivery date is tomorrow! Could I also join the WhatsApp group please? My shift tomorrow will drag in and my post comes just before my shift starts 🙈

Iamanaubergine · 20/05/2020 22:05

Hello - another relative newbie here. Has anyone managed to spot a shooting star and if so how?!! I’ve been staring at the sky for at least 20 minutes and not a peep!

isawoofer · 21/05/2020 20:25

Hi, can I join the watts app group?! Have been playing for a month, would love to trade some fruit

YesILikeItToo · 21/05/2020 21:01

Is anyone playing this evening with anything for sale in their shop that a 10 year old girl would like for her birthday? Mine’s selling a set of prison bunk beds and a stick for measuring people’s height, not very inspiring. She has two rooms - one gas a Japan theme And the other a teenage Pink bedroom vibe.

YesILikeItToo · 21/05/2020 21:02

Aubergine - we have only seen them the day that Isobel told us there would be a meteor shower - then we saw lots.

notnowdennis · 21/05/2020 21:09

For stars, listen for them. Then empty your hands and right stick up. Then hold A as they appear. Caught loads tonight.

YesILikeItToo · 21/05/2020 21:20

Ooh, off to listen for stars now.
