Gulliver? Are you kidding me?

[Snow]

I just gave him 10 furniture I don?t use 5 hours ago, and all I got back was one sweet...

Dang Gulliver, you rigged. More rigged than Rover is.

SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME.

My first shipment was one chair and I got 3 snacks. 2nd time? 10 items. Mostly good, some basic. ONE PLAIN SNACK.

And you get to wait six hours for the privilege. I hope they get negative feedback and completely rethink how Gulliver works.

i think gulliver has problems but i don't think it's a bad feature yet

especially if more villagers can be gotten just from giving him items, i am fine with it

 

[Imaginetheday]

The flower trade furniture items are "good", if you're into gardening. I had accidentally made an extra minitable, so I gave him that. The fences only take 15 flowers, so that might be a good option. I have no idea what you get in return for them.

I actually like this feature, I gave him extra items I had from previous gardening events and clothes I don't want. The candy looks cute to me so I might not even use it lol just hoard it

 

[Ras]

That’s cool. I’d like to hear from more people who like this so I can better understand how to do it right.

It would be great if they'd let us load him up with the super-rare fish and/or insects. There's no implemented use for them other than the catalog, and no practical use except for market or auto-selling.

Agreed! The use of rare insects and fish is not that great of a feature.

So...I guess this new fortune cookie thing is supposed to help us with Gulliver?

 

[kayleee]

Has anyone gotten a new villager by just giving him basic 1-minute craft items? Trying to decide if I should make a bunch of one minute items, but won’t waste my time if I won’t get a villager from it...

That would make me so happy! Although I?ve sold all but one or two of each of them it would still make those things useful. I wish we could display the candy.

SAME!

I got 3 sweets from the very first 1-item trade, and I haven't given him anything else since the first 10 item trade.

On the PC reddit they're saying villagers appear to be random. There is a graphic for the various sweets you get from the various directions, and which villager type they go with. (So far I've found the gold and silver tins to be generic. The gold gives 15, the tin 10). Back to reddit ..... People have been getting a villager using junk, good, great, and any combo. The villagers appear to be totally random, so we don't have to sell all our great items, just make junk and eventually you should get the villagers.

Gave 10 worktables and told him to sail north. Received a bronse and silver can.

 

[Garrett]

I've just been giving him my spare flower baskets. Only villager so far has been Plucky.

 

[cheezu]

So does anyone know if the villagers depend on what items you give him or if it's completely random?

It appears to be random.

See tamtam's post upthread.

 

[cheezu]

I've given him 20 "good" items so far and no villager yet. Kind of a bummer.
I was waiting for him all day!

 

[J087]

Traded 20 worktables in the last 24h and I got these.
Nothing "good" or "great" about it.

I've finally gotten all three villagers by giving him items of no rating. I have given him only large dharmas, bushes and cheap clothes. I say if you have the patience to just keep making 1 minute items, it's worth it. It only took 8 trips to get them all, and it seems random at times, but he'll give a silver or gold tin along with the bronze tin.
