#eventually deciding on ruby between her and like dotty goldie and fauna

[messedupessy]

Ok so I mentioned my insane villager hunting luck I been having in animal crossing new horizons with my second island yesterday, and i just have to go into detail just how lucky I been with getting the ones I been wanting xD will also talk about a bit about my island overall as I can't help myself!

So first off, I started this island on April 13 or started to reset for it at least, got it on April 14 the one I went with, but I did change the date so that I would start on the 24th of February as I felt that would be a good time to start, and then I could just time travel forward several times a day.

With the island I wanted I had 3 musts haves, 1: the river mouths can't both be facing south as that's how my old island is like, 2: I want a big pennisula, and lastly 3: I wanted either Muffy or Frobert as a starter villager, as I wanted to keep one of the originals on this island as I didn't with my first, I preferably wanted Frobert since I been keeping Muffy on my original so I could one day move her to this second island I been wanting to do. And after over a day of resetting I finally got Frobert as my starter jock, alongside Renée which is fine but I so did not want her, but I also got all the other things i wanted, I even got the fruit I wanted most aka apples, as it was the fruit I wanted the most but would been fine with any!

The only downside with the island is that I got the yellow airport that I already got on my first island and that the pier is very short, but I will live with that! ((also sadly I am forced to take photos off my switch for this so sorry for the quality of the pics))

Also at the start I played completely offline with no updates so I could get my hands on the old second stage of the museum, since I wanted to test and see if a thing I know is possible with some pokemon games were possible with acnh, which it was!

If you want to know how to get it so do you need a physical copy that do not have the 2.0 update and also a switch that have never run animal crossing before, or have your switch factory reset as otherwise it won't work and the updates will be there already. And then you just get the museum to upgrade once and then make sure not to donate any diving sea creatures and Blathers will not be talking about upgrading it at all. I sadly could not check if I could finish the museum besides the diving creatures as I was dumb and didn't think things through after I updated the game!

Anyway, then it was time to hunt for the next 3 villagers, the must normal, peppy and lazy, forcing me to update so i could transfer over a shitton of nook miles tickets I been saving up on my first island, exact 120 tickets, and later on I been using treasure islands just to get all the tickets I been needing.

First so called dreamie I been wanting to get I found in like 20-30 tickets I think on April 15 or 16th, so happy I found Kiki first as I been so excited to get her!

Then the same day I found Bella who I been wanting for awhile too and I got her with only like 5 tickets left of the original 120!

But then I began my hunt for the lazy villager, and I knew I wanted Lucky the most!

I now realised I forgot to explain my theme a bit, my theme for this island is going to be this witchy overgrown spooky island with lots of swedish influences etc, originally was going to be more gothic but I changed my mind xD either way I spent like 100 or more tickets trying to find him but nothing, even though I had only lazy villagers appearing I just had no luck finding him at all!

Heck I found Punchy, my all time favourite villager, 10 times before I decided to take Bob instead for now, who I also had been planning to get but at a later date, but I then remembered that finding specific cat villagers is really rough when they are not limited to lazies, so I went and got him even though I had skipped him twice already but it took like 50 more tickets before I got him on April 17!

And you might be wondering why Bob he doesn't fit the theme, that's the sole reason why he is there because he doesn't fit in and I find it funny xD

But after they all moved in it was time for the camp site, I luckily didn't get a smug I disliked as I got Zell, and after he moved in Renée wanted to instantly move out, giving me the chance to go and get Muffy from my first island on the 18th, who I kicked out using a amiibo card of Cherry, as I been wanting her back onto my island for ages! I did forget to take a screenshot of it so heres a pic of the map instead! ((Skogen just means forest in swedish))

I then time traveled through the next 2 weeks of the game hoping to get Zell want to move out but with no luck, so decided to start hunting for the next villager instead by putting down a plot.

And I found her after like another 100 tickets or so, maybe less, Freya who originally was going to have the snooty spot taken by Diana, but who I decided to change to Freya instead!

Then Zell finally wanted to move out and I got to hunting, specifically wanting to get the smug villager I wanted which was Henry the most.

And I found him after like 100 tickets on the 22th!

Then on the 23th I was hunting to get either Roscoe or Ruby, while I was waiting to get a Lucky amiibo card I decided to buy as it felt like I just did not see any dogs while hunting, so was like oh I might as well buy this one I been looking at for awhile. But of course on that day after suddenly seeing a bunch of dog villagers, who do I find:

Of course I find him the one that I literally spent money to get and then I didn't need it, I am still so frustrated at myself for that but there was no way I was going to leave him there xD

Then on the 25th I began to hunt for either Roscoe or Ruby, I preferably wanted to get Roscoe as I really wanted to get him before I got 3 stars and have K.K visiting, wanted him for the cutscene etc, but after 200 tickets that day I had no luck.

But the next day the 26th I did with probably another 100 tickets I found Ruby, while I was wearing her shirt and everything.

So now it was only Roscoe left, and I had like 30-35 tickets left, so I went and got 400 more from a treasure island as I felt so strongly this would take a long fucking while.

It did not take a long fucking while, instead last night where I had changed the date to the 27th as thats how I usually did for these hunts, skipping to the next day so it adds up later etc, I did 10 islands while at my desk before deciding to go lay down in my bed for the night, and then I went to my 11th island of that night...

AND GOT HIM! LITERALLY FOUND HIM IN 11 TICKETS! And I am still both so happy and so miffed at the same time, what am i going to do with all these tickets I do not need anymore? Who knows xD but damn am I happy I got him so quickly.

And with that I got all my villagers:

This is my whole planned villager line up, and I now skipped to the 28th as I wanted to get Roscoe to start moving in before checking how many stars my island have, and somehow it got fucking 3 stars already with no effort on my part, so I am good to go and finally start working on my island proper xD

So yeah, that's my stupidly good luck hunting villagers, I am still so shocked it went so well, especially since I recall been so stressed hunting for my first island and ended up with autofills etc, but this time I knew how things worked, had acess to treasure islands to get them tickets easily, and it was just very chill to sit and do and I am so excited to get started properly! And I now done the math and realised this took just over 2 weeks total in real time to do haha why is my luck like this gnkenjkgejk

Anyway thank you for anyone who been reading this far, I appreciate you as this was fun to write down! ❤ I might show more screeenshots in the future of my progress we shall see!
