Got another scorpion/money rock island while Flick is in town thanks to a Nook Miles Ticket @FattyWhale_42 sent to me. That ended up being a 540,600 Bell gift.

@BenAV can I buy a scorpion from you if you haven’t sold them already

@meeto_1 I sold them but I'm pretty sure there's no way to trade bugs and fish anyway, right?

@BenAV Haha! Sure, I'll take the credit for that... xD

(>^_^)>

@BenAV you’re right. I keep forgetting this sorry

@meeto_1 Oh well, Northern Hemisphere will get scorpions in a couple of weeks anyway.

@BenAV Man! All I keep getting is bamboo island. Have managed a couple of tarantulas there but still. The randomness is driving me nuts.

@BrittGOAL14 Bamboo island is the worst. Can't even get any furniture from trees there and can't look for fossils without having to dig up a billion holes. I usually just take a lap of the beach in case there's a DIY recipe and then leave.

I've only gone to 3 mystery islands. The first two were just like my island. The third was at least a little different. Every tree was a foreign fruit tree, but I already have that fruit, and the flowers were still my native ones. If you get a foreign fruit you should at least get a foreign flower, too. Maybe one day I'll get an island that gives me something useful (it would probably help if I did it more often).

@BenAV Yeah Ben, it looks like I most definitely have a decreasing pattern. Let me know if you're available so I can visit your island if you have decent turnip prices.

@Oat My range for the rest of the week is...
Friday morning: 99-153
Friday afternoon: 152-217
Saturday morning: 152-218
Saturday afternoon: 152-217

It's currently 5:07am on Friday, to give you an indication of time zone.

@Xyphon22 Meh, I got excited to sell 57 peaches today. Foreign so still made some bells. I’ve gone to a hybrid flower island before, though. Couldn’t believe it. Blue/orange/pink hyacinths. Hoping for more islands like that in the future.

@Xyphon22 I don't visit mystery islands much either, intact I've only been once! I must start going more often so I can find some different things. I'm currently trying to make my island look nice but don't get a lot of spare time so its taking a long time. I'll get there in the end!

I have gone on a few mystery island tours every day since release date. It seems that you can only find 1 type of foreign fruit (coconuts don't count) and 1 type of foreign flowers no matter how many times you visit. I suppose it is made that way to encourage trading between players.

Thanks to whoever has Spinach island.

So I put a scorpion model on the path outside my house and I hate it. Jump scare every time.

@MyNameIsRandy That would be @FattyWhale_42

Just a helpful tip for you guys. In case you build something like a bridge and it causes your furniture to disappear, you should check the recycle bin at Isabelle and Tom Nook's place to get it back. I caused my anchor statue to vanish by complete accident, so I was thankful to acquire it again that way.

@MarioLover92 That's useful to know, thank you ML!

I just visited a mystery island with my Nook Miles Ticket and it was a bamboo island. I brought some bamboo trees back with me and also some bamboo shoots, what is the best thing to do with those, shall I grow them on my own island or is there another more profitable use for them?

I have a new villager moving in tomorrow and I cannot remember his name He arrived at the campsite so I invited him to stay, I think he was a bear but its really bad that I can't remember much about him!

@Pink_Yoshi Plant the bamboo on your island. It's good to have a little supply of it so that you've got it there if you need any for DIY recipes. Plus it can look nice.

If you go to many mystery islands though you'll probably learn to hate the bamboo one. Once you've got some the first time, there's not a lot to gain from going back there so it's a bit of a waste of a ticket.
