Well I'm quickly losing interest in this. The fact that I can't play during the night (3 hours later is still nothing) is a complete dealbreaker, which is a shame.

Hey, don't blame the game on your wacky schedule! :P

carmofin

Well I play a little during the day, but I avoid all my neighbours because I simply don't have time for them and when I do they are all asleep.

I distinctly remember that, even since the first game, some of the NPCs are nightowls (not literally) (well, maybe some).

Apparently Tom Nook's just misunderstood.

"We think he is very misunderstood. He’s just passionate about his business. He’s not like a loan shark. He doesn’t add a handling fee or anything like that. He can wait as long as it takes for you to pay back. He’s not as bad as other people might think he is." - Aya Kyogoku

Meanwhile off camera Tom Nook has a gun pointed at his head.

MAH MONEY

Just added everyone in the google doc. Please return the favor. I will require fruits and such.

I am so pumped to lose far too much time to this game. So much so that I'm tempted to buy the AC 3DSXL even though I already have one. Why do I hate moneyyyyyy.

I'll be putting my name on the gdoc tonight, I have no gd idea what my friend code is off the top of my head.

Ceno

My wife is awesome and just preordered both this and the guide for me for my berfday. Only downside is I won't get it until that Wednesday due to shipping.

nicopernicus

I added my name to the google doc, and I will be adding everyone on in when I get home tonight. I'll be ready for some jolly cooperation!

timspork's ghost

I too have added myself to the google doc.

Endaro

Same. Also I've never played an Animal Crossing before, sounds relaxing.

Just make sure you play often enough, or you'll have a house full of cockroaches and a city full of weeds.

How often is often enough? 15 minutes a day? 10 minutes every couple of hours? Sorry for the barrage of questions.

I added everyone from the google doc that I wasn't already friends with. So @HallowedFaith @raziel_pm @Ceno @Dash and @Timspork's Ghost you have all been added.

It doesn't matter how long in a day you play for, just make sure you play every couple days or so.

Oh Nintendo, I see what you did there.

Animaaaal Crooooosssssing! How was I not following this thread already?

@carmofin, for review purposes, I suggest playing with your system calender and just do some longer playing sessions of multiple days at a time. That's really the only way to get a good view of how the game works in time for deadline. It's what I plan to do once my code arrives.

Edit: Added myself to the list and am adding you folks!

HallowedFaith

That video is cute. Their advertising for this game has been adorable.

Mysfyt

Added myself to the doc and all yous guyses to my friend list! :rotate:

You can always swap a.m. and p.m. to compliment your schedule, or just change your time to whatever you want it to be.

If you want it to be noon in-game at 3 a.m.? Go crazy.

I am totes excited about this game.

Sea of Thorns

Between this and Bravely Default coming soon, I really want to convince myself that it's worth buying the super-cute XL bundle, but my eyes bleed from looking at the display models of the original 3DS. Like, I can't see the effect without getting seriously dizzy and disoriented. Is this larger version any easier to stare at?

HallowedFaith

Yeah, I understand peoples frustrations about the time, but the game is built around the clock so to make everything 24-7 would kind of kill some of that. Normally what I do when the shops are closed and I want to fish is just store everything in my house and then when it's open I sell off everything.

As much as I want to get the game at midnight, I'm thinking that might be a bad idea because once I do the basics, all the shops will be closed and i'll be stuck with a sleeping town. If I hit up Gamestop with some trade-ins when they open, it will be a fresh town with a whole day to do stuff. Probably for the best.

I'm so happy for these videos. Is it too much to hope they'll be released daily? Might make the wait a little more bearable.

Are those... are those plushies on the table?? I need that K.K. Slider plushie. NEED.

My thoughts exactly.

Will investigate doc this evening when my 3DS has internet access.

Ceno

My hype for this is increasing exponentially day-by-day.

Also added everyone on google doc, please add me too!

Vyolynce

Ok, all thirteen of you guys are in.

Ceno

So using the universal Game of Thrones analogy, what house would Nook be?

My impulse was to say Lannister, but it strikes me that the player character is more a Lannister, what with "always paying his debts" and all.

Nook's probably a Bolton.

No one will be "making the eight" in my town! Hah.

New official Swapnote with AC stationery today! Yay!

And new AC puzzle panel! Yay!

But, argh! For some reason I didn't get the new panel. It sent me a piece for Luigi's Mansion instead. How do I get a piece for the AC panel??

Sorry, I accidently switched the 5 and the 7 around in the second set.
