Club Tortimer encounters
- Thread starter Mao
- Start date
I've had... mixed experiences.
I've mostly played within my regional area, and at the best of times, we played a bunch of tours, or we caught bugs/fish without bothering each other. There was one time relatively early into the game where the person I met immediately just starting begging for bells. They, thankfully, didn't 'trap' me. There was another time when I encountered someone just digging up holes everywhere on the island, as if to try and 'trap' another player. Someone else soon joined us, and it was kind of amusing, and it was all relatively harmless, if a little bit strange.
The one time I played internationally, I ended up with two Japanese players. And they trapped me. Luckily, they did so before I had done anything on the island, but I just sat there on the tour seats waiting for several minutes, and they just stayed outside on the island. I felt bad for shutting off my wireless connection, but I honestly had no idea what was going on.

this girl was afk for like 10 mins and i was like okay whatever
she then moved and then the first thing she said was "why the gas mask"
she then asked where i lived and what was my name and blahblah
it was kinda awkward
i then chose a minigame and sat down and the boat left without her??? is that normal?? idk
and then i finished the minigame and came back and she wasn't there and i left
after that i haven't bothered with it
waste of my 60 medals
oh well

If you want the other person to join, they will need to sit before you.
I have had my fair run of interesting people on Tortimer's Club. I have met nice people just like I have met bad ones.
One time I met a Japanese player who realized I didn't speak Japanese. He didn't say a word - He just came to where I was standing and dropped a blue rose for me. It was sweet ^^.
Another time I met a Japanese player completely dressed like a king. When he realized I didn't speak a great deal of Japanese, he started telling me to go home. -_-
Another time I met yet another Japanese boy. I told him I didn't speak Japanese and that I'd try my best. He was really sweet. ^^ It was my first "real" Japanese conversation in which I understood most of what was said. I was able to practice my reading and vocabulary and he was really nice. I wish I could meet him.
Last experience is a little bit, uhm, dirty. I went to North America's island (I don't live there, but my 3DS is set to that region) and I meet a boy my age who started asking me inappropriate questions after complimenting my character's looks... I guess he was just hormonal? Hahaha. I really didn't mind his questions so much, but rather the crude way he asked them.

I usually get paired with 11 year olds. I always feel super awkward being 23, but most kids don't trap you on the island and demand items so I guess that's lucky

I went international and met a nice enough girl. She was Japanese. She spoke little English. We did the Easy Hammer tour, then she told me to go home...As I was leaving she said sorry. Maybe she had to go or something...I don't know, but I left... Strange. She was nice though.
I've been to my country and international and I mainly do tours and look at what they're selling on the island. Most of the time, if I encounter someone, they just stand there and don't really talk, haha. A few times, there've been people who have followed me around the island, so in those cases I've just left, but occasionally you'll get someone who holds a conversation with you - for example, my best friend met someone on the island the other day and she loved my friend's hair bow wig, so she gave it to her ^^
I usually go on international island, because my country's island is almost always empty.
I've experienced a hostage situation. I could have just used the Wifi-switch to escape, but I kind of wanted to teach the robber a lesson. I had really fun with him... but then again, I guess he had fun too, because he eventually canceled the tour and asked for my friend code. I'm not even sure did he seriously want any bells from the start. But if I had been a younger player, I would have probably think he's scary.
Then there was this one player, who kept hitting me with an axe. He was actually really nice when he started to talk. I wonder is it really hard to start a conversation with me if you don't kidnap me or hit me with different things at first...
One Japanese player gave me a crown and then he ran away. It was one of my first times on the island. I didn't sell it, even though it would have been easy money.
Then there's been nice conversations with players from different countries. Well, at least we have tried to talk about something, but when you don't speak the same language, it's kind of... hard. Most of them have been really young, but once I met a Japanese lady who said she's 47 years old.

I would kind of hate a hostage situation, but it would be fun, I guess..... well not really o_o Just a bit of drama xD

First of all, I want to say sorry to everyone who has had bad encounters. Hope that you'll have a better experience another time!
I've never had any bad experiences, not once. Everyone I've met is nice! I've only used International one time, and the rest is just in my country.
Over International I met a really nice girl from Japan that could speak English. We caught bugs and talked for a while before I had to leave (of course, it was night time, and it was morning for her, so I had to go to bed). She was really nice and I wish everyone was like her!
Most of the time everyone is just average. Some people are a little suspicious, though - my sister met with someone that teased us about living in Texas. He was like "It's always so hot there!", when those are just stereotypes. Believe it or not, it's snowed a little bit here, and farther down there's even been lots of snow. It just doesn't snow as much up here...
Anyway...
When he asked if we had snakes, she said no and he was like "Yeah, right." He even called her a nerd, but then took it back by saying nerds were cool. (Which they are, but I think he just said that because she was like "Hey!") I believe he was someone from a site called GameFAQ's, since my sister asked and he said that's the only website he was on.
So yes, some people are more rude than others, but I hope to never experience super terrifying! And once more I apologize for everyone who has had bad experiences. If only people could just get along all the time!
Sorry this is a long post, there's lots to say that I've never mentioned. XD Looking forward to hearing about other interesting experiences!
*Oh, and yes, I've never been held hostage, so it seems really...fun, I guess. No idea why. It would be scary if I didn't know about the Wi-Fi switch, but since it's an easy escape I've always wondered what it's like...*

I had CT and I barely used it. I didn't talk a lot with the people anyways.
I had Club Tortimer{CT}. I had Connecticut{CT}. I DON'T KNOW.
