New spring event?

[violingamer456]

I hope I'm not the only one who missed this lol, I had to consult the wiki to figure out what I missed because other than the gray stars on the calendar I forgot this was a thing

What are you asking exactly? That there is a new event? It's literally in the patch notes.

I'm not gonna lie, I completely forgot to read the patch notes lol, I was mostly asking if anyone else had missed it

Yeah I missed it too :c my save file before 1.6 was a day after that new event. I just missed it!

That's unfortunate. Thankfully it's recurring so you get another chance!

That's a year 2 event anyway, since you need to have fixed up the bus for it. Unless you manage to earn the 42k in the first two weeks of spring year 1, but that's not likely, at least without mods/cheating ;p

That's incorrect, desert unlock year 1 spring has been a thing for years.

I have nothing but pity for people who feel that sort of need, and speedrunners.

Yet here you are, enjoying the fruits of technology of people who care about accuracy, precision and optimization. But you pity those kinds of people? Oki doki

you probably could get that much money if you farm fishing and get enough rainy days for catfish but its much better invested elsewhere, like strawberries or buildings or tools

That makes sense, it was just like "oh man I missed it" lol

Yeah, if you're min-maxing, not playing normally.

He said it's not feasible without cheating or modding, which is not correct. Are you suggesting min maxing is cheating? "Not normal"?

subjectively it could be depending on how they are min maxing, such as using 3rd party tools to predict things, taking screenshots of areas to view foragables, resetting days to know where all items spawned, etc. and with that much gold earned they either used an exploit or really abused the rules of the game.

This is a fair point but calling the style of play in itself not normal just screams immaturity. I could say that a player managing to get only 1000 gold in spring 1 and gets perfection in year 27 is not normal, but I don't. So when someone says you need to cheat to accomplish bus in spring 1, and I suggest you don't need to cheat and it is feasible with strong play, the only point I'm making is people should open their eyes to the possible. Even without the methods you refer to it is possible. Will most people do it? No, but why is that not normal? Seems to me like the crowd who says "play however you want, take as much time as you need" get upset real quick when someone suggests they can play optimally.

Obviously min-maxing isn't normal play. You can play how you like, but going full min-max is a specific playstyle most people simply don't do.
