New Horizons F.A.Q. – Ask Questions Here!

I've been TTing between the same 2 dates (today and May 12) trying to get a certain villager to move out. I've been unsuccessful and I'm giving up for the night lol but I noticed something weird in the mail. My mom sent me a birthday card...but it's not my birthday at any point between those 2 dates?? I only got it once. It had the cake and everything! There was no announcement on the board about my birthday (idk if there should be, but I know villagers' birthdays are always announced there). I guess it's possible I could have put in the wrong birthday (but very unlikely lol) but I'm still confused as to why I only got the card once when I TT'd so many times between those same dates. Has this ever happened to anyone else?

edit: and no, I did not change the year, as evidenced by the bulletin board only having stuff about May Day and Canberra's upcoming birthday on the 14th.

seconding! i TTed yesterday to cycle someone out and the furthest i went was late june. when i synced back up with real time and checked my mailbox, i had a birthday letter from mom with the cake. my birthday is in january. i doubt that both of us entered the wrong birthday! this must be a glitch involving the game's clock.

My birthday is in January too! That’s so strange, I was kind of afraid I’d broken the game somehow lol so I’m glad it’s not just me who’s experienced it.

is your birthday january 31st? maybe something about that day confuses the game lmao

but thankfully there don't seem to be any other errors surrounding it, i've been playing normally today and nothing weird has happened!

Mine is January 6! Maybe it’s just the month of January that’s got the game confused lol. This morning I couldn’t find Daisy Mae and I nearly panicked because I thought it had something to do with the birthday card but it turned out she’d just gotten a little lost in my bamboo forest. I haven’t had anything weird happen either so hopefully everything is fine and that was just a one-time bug.
 
Hi, i am very new to the AC franchise (and frankly this site, not even sure if I'm posting correctly lol) and i am getting ACNH later next month. I was wondering if i could time travel backwards to trigger the nature day event since i would miss it otherwise. Would this work?

Yes. Or you could even start your island at an earlier date and just slowly move forward if you want.
 
How rare are the earth day mystery islands? I went to a bunch of islands and just got the usual junk.

Also, what is on them that makes them special/is it worth trying to hunt one down?

There are Earth Day mystery islands? You mean the one with the hedge maze? That's May 1 to May 7.
 
No idea. It depends on what games you have. Most games don't do anything with the system clock, so it doesn't matter what day/time it is.
Thanks so much, i was so worried i'd miss the entire event! And no worries, I'll ask around. Have a good day/night wherever you are :D
 
How many bridges can I have?

How big are the villager houses, Able Sisters, Upgraded Nook's Cranny and Museum?

Was trying to find an old post where I answered this very question, but I found it. Firstly, you can have a total of 8 bridges, and a total of 8 inclines.

As for building dimensions (increase second number by 1 to include area in front of building):

Player - 5 by 4.
Villager - 4 by 3.
Campsite - 4 by 3.
Able Sisters - 5 by 4.
Nook's Cranny - 7 by 4.
Museum - 7 by 4.

Bonus: bridges can span across 3 to 5 tiles.
 
Does anyone know the conversion rate for tbt to nmt to bells? I was looking for the official post for it but can’t find any.

Honestly, I have no clue but I have seen NMT being sold for 20 TBT and since NMT are 200-250K each... TBT isn't worth many IGB. :/

Thanks! I was planning on trading Judy for bells but have no idea how much nmt to bells it.
 
I have been complaining to Isabelle about Agnes' appearance; she is wearing a hat someone put in my Ables' without permission. I don't want her to wear a hat at all. Period. But every time I complain to Isabelle, she just changes into a different shirt. Any suggestions?

Not much you can do, unfortunately. She'll take it off whenever her AI decides to.
 
Yes, but the villager that is forced out is entirely random.

I actually came here to ask about this...

I've seen videos where that was the case, but when I invited Fang over to my campsite and asked him to move in yesterday he gave me the choice between all of my villagers.

I've seen both scenarios play out in videos and I'm wondering what the criteria is for which one occurs?
