The Roost - All things Animal Crossing: New Horizons for Nintendo Switch

alright, good to know, i was wondering if there was some glitch or something. thanks!

i'll probably take you up on your offer to come to your island tomorrow, just to check things out and maybe steal some fruit. it was cool to see another island.
 
Does anyone have the scarecrow recipe, and would be willing to make one for me? I'll pay. My pumpkin patch is in need of some flair!

Also...has anyone else stopped getting furniture/item drops from shaking trees? I haven't gotten any all week, and I only have 1 tree that's blocked and can't drop anything.

I was surprised that the spooky items in Nooks each day seem to be the same ones you can craft. So you have the option to craft OR buy them.

I have a scarecrow too if you want it. I think we're friends in the game?

I haven’t seen any new crafts other than one villager gave me recipe for spooky candy something. I will make it. Unless I see it for sale. But that’s a little weird if it’s done that way.

I got my hands on a scarecrow, but thanks anyway!

And yeah, looks like there's a different item from the halloween DIYs for sale at Nook's every day, so I'm not too sure what the benefit of getting the recipes is unless you just want to make a bunch of them (or if you are a completionist like I am). So far I have the spooky candy DIY (from a villager this morning), and the pumpkinhead scarecrow thing DIY (which I think I shot down from a balloon, but I don't remember). I'm guessing at least some of the items (wand, floor, wall, rug) won't show up at Nook's and will need to be crafted, but idk.

There's still a benefit to growing pumpkins though, because they're needed in order to customize the items (regardless of whether they came from DIYs or Nook's).

I've gotten three DIYs so far. Two from neighbors and one from a balloon. But two of them have been in Nooks the last two days.

What did you have at Nook's? I had the arch yesterday, and the table today...wondering if it's the same for everyone, or just a random item

I'm pretty sure it's random. Yesterday was the candy set and today was the lantern.

How about costumes at Ables? We had the mage's cloak yesterday and the mage's shoes today. I'm honestly hoping for some costumes for guys.

I don't remember what I had yesterday, but today I have a raggedy outfit, which I'm guessing they mean to be for a zombie costume
 
How's everybody doing with the pumpkins so far? My wife and I kind of staggered the planting, so we have some showing up almost every day now. That being said, we still haven't had any green ones yet, although I haven't played today yet.

Planted a ton, got a few and made some stuff. On our first planting of a bunch, we got every color. But I now realize I should have made our pumpkin patch bigger. So I might add a second one somewhere else on the island. I'm enjoying it a lot, but I hope there are more recipes than what I have seen.

I added a second group yesterday, because my main patch didn't yield any yellow ones. Apparently each plant will just keep growing the same color, so unless you swap them out for new starters you'll keep not getting green ones. My plan is to see what the second patch yields, and hopefully can swap out some of my main plants with ones that'll grow yellow.

Apparently though, once you pick a certain color pumpkin, you can plant that again and grow the same colors somewhere else. Or at least that's what I saw on YouTube.

Yeah. We made an initial pumpkin patch with 20-ish sprouts and then I ended up planting a few more the next day around my house. Still no greens. I'm not in a huge rush, but I would like to get some eventually.
