Random Findings

[xSuperMario64x]

I've been playing this game for 12 years, and I still have totally random things happen that have never happened to me before. If anyone else has any, you're welcome to post them here.


Today I set the clock forward (for conplicated reasons) and it's raining outside. I'm pretty sure that when I walked out of my house the roof was purple. I went and talked to Portia, and she said something along these lines to me:

"Is it just me, or is it raining harder than usual? I ask that because the paint on your roof is peeling off. See? You get what you pay for! Buy cheap paint, and it's gonna peel off!"

To which I replied, "okay, tell me another place I can buy paint besides Nook's." And I don't know if this has anything to do with it, but I remembered that I actually recently had Wisp paint my roof purple. Anyways, I walk back to my house, and now the roof is white! I've had scenarios where villagers are randomly like "oh btw I painted your roof lol" but I've never had the paint "peel off" of my roof. Luckily I believe tomorrow's paint at Nook's shop will be purple, so I'll set the clock forward one more day so it stops raining.

Spoiler: reason why I changed the clock (in case you're wondering)

I'm going back to college in about three days, and since I'm not taking my Gamecube I wanted to finish my bug encyclopedia. The only bugs I'm missing are the migratory locust, pine cricket, and bell cricket, and all three can be caught in September between 5-7pm. (I'm also missing the banded dragonfly but I can get that right now so I don't need to change the clock for that.) Unfortunately I have to change the clock again because it's raining on September 1st.

I'm also missing the banded dragonfly.

that the ******* who just zooms straight through the acre and despawns if it reaches the end, due to how acre mechanics work? thus leaving you with a very short window of opportunity?

Yeah lol

Somehow I managed to catch one on my older player, so I'm sure I could do it again. But yeah when they pop up like you gotta be READY right then and there or you'll just flat-out miss it. Plus if it goes even a little bit too far off screen it'll just disappear, due to how the game loads nearby acres. It's annoying.
