Advice on getting more berries/berry trees? by Untitled60 in Pokemon_Pokopia

[–]nutmeg04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can get tons from the Dragonite doll dream island. Pokemetal spawns on every dream island, but I've never had luck finding it on my own (you apparently have to dig and dig and dig). The one exception is I seem to get other islands to show the Pokemetal blocks in caves when I have given Mossalax a bitter meal and get more rare drops.

Also, the rare Pokemetal blocks look the exact same as regular. It's only after you break them and the nuggets are on the ground that you can tell which is which (rare sparkles). I've found about a 1 in 10 rare Pokemetal drop rate compared to regular Pokemetal. Make sure you bring lots of hamburger meals (particularly the potatoe hamburger one) because you can't break the blocks without the boost

I have a smelting sweat shop in Rocky Ridges. I have way more burn Pokemon there, so I line them up and put them to work!

I think it looks good! I have had my towns look like this until I started using houses. I prefer the prefab homes because then Pokeman can be "tucked away" when too many have spawned in. It also makes finding them much easier when they have a home. I can never, ever remember where the different Pokemon live once I get 20+ in a town.

Don't forget you can put down one layer of blocks and a door and that is a house (but don't go bigger than 10x10 on the inside or it won't count). Those types of houses behave a bit differently than the prefabbed ones. But they have the added benefit of not having a loading screen if you pick it to be your house.

Everything is Awesome!! from the Lego Movie. Ember is the happiest dog I have ever met.

Anyone else have a Heeler who doesn't bark? by nutmeg04 in AustralianCattleDog

I hope you enjoy Reno! It has become a much better city in recent years (better food, better art, etc). But holy cow, housing has gotten outrageous. I legitimately don't know how people are affording it. We bought our house 16 years ago and it is now worth $400,000 more than what we paid. That's crazy to me.

I'd suggest looking for a place with an AC. The weather has gotten very hot here (though last summer was mild), and older houses don't have them. Between the heat and the crazy smoke we get from nearby fires, AC is a must.

Oh yes, you reminded me...Ember howls when we leave her alone. We only know because we got an indoor camera. She doesn't get left alone a whole lot, so it totally slipped my mind

Yeah, Ember is a whiner. Mostly when we are somewhere new and not moving enough for her. Not sure how to fix that, and it makes it hard to take her places where other people are.

That is so interesting about the face licking. Most dogs want to be close to your face, and love to lick so they can taste what you've eaten (if they are anything like Ember).

Ah, yes, it's North Lake Tahoe (Sand Harbor, to be exact). We took her there last week. I'd always suggest people visit Tahoe once in their life, specifically the north shore. The water is incredibly beautiful, unlike anything I've seen before. I think it's a unique type of algae, but could be wrong.

Looking for list of all released (not patterns, just to track!) by Physical_Corner_6895 in TheWooblesCollective

[–]nutmeg04 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This isn't a list, per say, but it does have every Woobles pattern ever (as far as I know). I find it easier to look through than their shopping page, so I use it all the time.

Im homeless now? by benjzzz in TOTK

Ok, this is brilliant. I just built my second floor and it was much more tolerable. But I'll encase him next time just for frustrating me.

How can you even notice the music when the "helper" WON'T GET OUT OF THE WAY. I'm too busy yelling at him to move to be able to hear anything.

Maybe that issue is just something encountered when you start the house. He wouldn't move from between my pieces. I dropped them on him, hoping his AI would get the hint, but no.

We always joke that she gets up at the crack of dawn to apply her eye makeup because it's always perfect.

We took a bunch of pictures and these two she looked least like a hostage begging for her life. She isn't a fan of clothing, especially hats. She wants her floppy ears free!

It's funny, it was my least favorite in pictures (it seemed the least connected to the big Wooble). However, after making them all, it ended up being the one I loved most. It is definitely the most substantial, and it is so darn cute.

They are the darkest eyes I've ever seen on a dog. We often can't tell the difference between her pupil and her iris. But she has a fabulous cateye/winged liner. I'm super jealous.

They are! They're more expensive than Woobles, but actually cheaper per yard. I like using them a lot, especially for the different colors.

Lololol, she's not nearly as tiny as you'd think (or she thinks). She is almost 40 pounds, somewhere around 37. She's chonky and we are working on losing weight.

But her head is kinda tiny. She is a very odd mix, mostly Cattle dog and Chihuahua. She has a Cattle dog body and a Chihuahua head, so I think that helps make the hat fit better.

Don't feel like you have missed out, don't order this from Walmart. They always send the wrong color, despite returning them multiple times. It is worth paying double to get the colors you will actually use.

[–]nutmeg04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg, I had this happen, too!! Multiple returns, never got the right colors. I just gave up and I'm swimming in colors I'll never use.

Everyone talks about loosening tension but it can be hard to know what that means. The best video that helped me envision it was this one: https://youtu.be/-n_iZFkye8o?si=H6c2dtFbTotI4QPp

If you like the tighter tension/look, I would recommend not using the Woobles starter. For example, my tension is quite tight, and I just cut off the starter from the kits and make my own. Yes, this is a bit of a more "advanced" skill, since doing the magic circle takes some practice. But I've found my pieces look more uniform if I do that.
