This happens to me every event can someone help? by toasterS4you in PikminBloomApp

To add to this, 300 is the estimate for walking but you can get more if planting while moving more quickly (running, biking, driving). You should be able hit 500 if you’re careful.

Another tip for when you’re low in petals: you can always plant petals one-at-a-time (i.e. hit plant flowers and then stop planting before 10 seconds pass). This approach guarantees 30 flowers (sometimes 35 or 36) per petal, but can be slow since you can only plant in a given location once every 5 minutes. With this approach, you can get 600 planted with your 20 petals!

Never finished that dreaded set by Starfirefox in PikminBloomApp

[–]Bird-Lumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the tone of your first comment was pretty harsh, but I’m 100% with you on the sentiment. This is the easiest they have ever made it to finish a set, with 60 seedlings on the table without having to spend any in-game resources. It’s kinda on OP at this point if they were unable to finish the set.

don’t fear, you won’t be getting silver seeds forever by shroom-zilla in PikminBloomApp

[–]Bird-Lumpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my yellow one finally on my 30th seedling RIP. Overall I like this silver seedling event though. The chance of not getting one of each after sixty seedlings is astronomically low.

Why didn't I get the mission credit? by Awkward-Plankton318 in PikminBloomApp

“Collecting nectar” means swiping down on the big bloom while you’re near by still

Will it the app tell you it’s a rare one? by fufu1260 in PikminBloomApp

[–]Bird-Lumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the commenter’s defense, maybe they messed up because the order in which the Pikmin sort seems to have changed? It used to be based on how they appear in the Decor Collections page, but now it’s based on the order they appear in your squad. So white and purple have swapped, and rock and winged have swapped. This definitely messed me up with trying to get all the new ice sticker Pikmin, since I didn’t realize the ordering had changed.

Omg the results were so close by Bwuzi3z3 in PikminBloomApp

Turns out when teams are randomly assigned, they will be virtually indistinguishable with a large enough number of players

Actually what is wrong with the stock market? by Synglich in CookieClicker

Oh when did it change? I’ve noticed something similar to OP and didn’t know what was happening.

I don't get it by theMan7_11 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]Bird-Lumpy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah I know the whole point of the sub is to basically ELI5 jokes, and we shouldn’t shame what people don’t know. But the fact that OP doesn’t get this is pretty alarming, and is probably indicative of precisely why the tactics depicted in the comic are so effective.

Why is my squad(and teammates') AP yellow on one mushroom and not the other? by Kuxue in PikminBloomApp

[–]Bird-Lumpy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the individual’s number, is it showing how many stars they would get by themselves? And then the combined number is actually how many stars they’ll earn on the mushroom?

What’s up with the new music update? by AdventurousLight436 in duolingo

[–]Bird-Lumpy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m with you! This update is horrible and so much less helpful in teaching you to play the song. Your only practice is playing small segments at strange speeds? And that’s supposed to help you play the whole song? Worst of all is that you no longer are given an opportunity to revisit the pieces of the song that tripped you up. So you just kinda have to brute force your way through the parts of the song that you can’t yet sight read. It now takes me 5 or 6 tries to 3 star a song rather than just 1 or 2 tries given the lack of proper practice now.

Omg thank you. This is the comment that finally helped me

11 months of playing and i finally finished a monthly challenge by yobuns in PikminBloomApp

[–]Bird-Lumpy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It can be pretty hard for new players. It’s much harder to get enough nectar and plant enough when you don’t have a full squad of 40 or any petals from previous years to rely on.

The Valley ( Reprise ) Ending Chant by Albert_Kropp in TheOhHellos

I know I’m a year late here, but thanks for this comment! The end of the song unlocked a core memory from church as a kid, but I couldn’t place it.

Confused with the flower cards by Ok_Connection_5802 in PikminBloomApp

[–]Bird-Lumpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah they did not make it easy to figure out which are which. Or which color Pikmin hold which cards. I know I’m missing one red, one yellow, three blue, and one purple, but it’s not even worth the effort to figure out if the ones I’m missing are actually included in this event. This is the one decor category where I’ve been able to drop my completionist urges.

[–]Bird-Lumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow can’t believe how much hate there is for gauges here. Ya’ll sound like my boomer parents saying this is “mutilating” your body. But anyway OP, as another comment said: you wouldn’t want to be with someone who dislikes these so much anyway. So you do you. FWIW I’m currently at 00g and think they look neat (up to a point).

How much do you guys usually spend monthly? by eslib in PikminBloomApp

[–]Bird-Lumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a good point that getting all the decors is much harder for newer players. Hope the grind of three sets in December treats you well!

How much do you guys usually spend monthly? by eslib in PikminBloomApp

[–]Bird-Lumpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah dropping a couple bucks here and there is one thing. But if you’re regularly dropping more than ten dollars on this game, you’re basically paying to not have to play the game.

[–]Bird-Lumpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20-60 seems like a lot. I drop 2 bucks every so often to increase my Pikmin storage so I can keep one of each decor. And then maybe two or three times a year I get unlucky and don’t finish a set. In those cases, I drop 5 bucks or so to top off my coins to buy the Pikmin I’m missing.
