I asked in the sopha ( 17.0 ), and was wondering if there was some connection on the name for your character and the town that determines the fruit for the town. I entered the name Roy for the character, and said ' cool name ' to make it a boy. The town I named Nowhere. The fruit turned outto be apples. Since I had apples as the fruit in another town on a different card, I didn't want to new town. So I restarted the game without saving, reentered the same info, and it gave the same town and fruit. So could those of you who have played this, post here the name of the character and town as well as the fruit that grows. I would like to see if it gives the same when I enter the info.

Nah, I've created the same character in the same town before. I've gotten different types of fruit doing that. The native fruit you get is completely random. =/



A bit off-topic here, but w00t! I just noticed that I leveled up
(this is post 202). ^_^

[BorderWolf]

Well I had entered Roy as the name for the character, and the town's name as Nowhere. It gave apples as the fruit. So without saving, I restarted and enteed the same info and got the same town and fruit.

[jdlloyd]

If you keep doing it over and over, you'll get a different type of fruit. You just got lucky (or unlucky if you don't like apples).

[BorderWolf]

Well, I try a third time, but I still wonder of there is a connection to the names. So what names did you use if you don't mind my asking?

[jdlloyd]

I used [edited].

Perhaps it's time to break out AC and test it again for myself. =/

I have a spare memory card that doesn't have an AC save file....

[jdlloyd]

Ugh, I can't find my AC disk. One of my sisters probably borrowed it (we have 2 Gamecubes in the house - one "family" Gamecube that my sisters use and one of my own). I'll have to check with them in the morning (when they're awake). Sorry, I'll have to get back to you on this in the morning once I have a chance to test this.

In case it matters to you, I have that name in that town right now. I have cherries as my native fruit.

EDIT: Never mind. I just found my AC disk. -_-; I just didn't put it back where it goes. I found it. I'll test that out now....

[jdlloyd]

Sorry for the triple post. =/

I'm going to use this message as a placeholder and write the fruit I get each time as [edited] (no spaces in either name).

Starting Town: Cherries
Test Town 1: Peaches
Test Town 2: Oranges

EDIT: I tried it once more to see what I got:

Test Town 3: Apples

Now I've had cherries, peaches, oranges, and apples as my native fruit with those names. Feel free to keep trying, but you'll get a different native fruit sooner or later. It's just a coincidence that you got the same fruit 3 times in a row.

[jdlloyd]

Sorry for yet another post.

Yup, the names have nothing to do with the fruit you get. I tried this a long time ago and found the same thing. I have 3 towns with the same name and starting character name. Each town has a different native fruit.

*yawn* Well, I'm done adventuring as jdlloyd810 for today. Today I finally got around to making a full clockwork outfit for myself as well as some clockwork spheres (to be used later), and a couple clockwork items I gave away. Well, at least I managed to use up a lot of my extra keys. ^_^

Out of curiousity, anyone want a clockwork item? I can't do too many, but I can probably make one more today (maybe two). I'll be able to make more tomorrow though. I just thought I'd see if anyone's interested. The clockwork stuff comes in a 3-piece outfit (although you must have the torso awaregness ascension-only skill to equip the shirt), 2 familiars (a mech and a grapefruit ), and it can do anything a brainy skull can but better (maids, chefs, bartenders, and detectives). I'm a bit short on beer lenses and chef's hats though. I might be able to find those though.

Well, I can't do too many of these, but I'd be glad to make something free for maybe the first 4 people that message my jdlloyd810 account (although since Butters is probably the only other person on this site that's played KoL, I doubt I'll have a problem with too many people asking. ).

If anyone has questions about what exactly the items are or what they do, I'd be glad to give more info on that stuff. =)

I think you meant to post that in the KoL thread. ^^;

I don't think it matters what the names of people and towns are. And with the fruit, the more favors you do, they will give different fruit or sell you some, and the first fruit they sell may be expensive, but worth it. Oh another tip, I write in my 1st person's diary the town fruit, as it can get confusing later. The town fruit makes cheap gifts in letters!

Oops.
Sorry about that.

EDIT: Okay, I posted it there and deleted the message. Sorry again.

[BorderWolf]

Ok, so it was more of a weird fluke that it just gave the same town layout, same fruit, same neighbors. But let the starting outfit be different. Zinovia was kind enough to send me the names she used, she said the fruit was peaches. But when I tried it, they were oreanges.

[Dragonic Darkness]

My fruit was apples, but since a bunch of towns people gave me different types of fruit my town has all the types. I even invaded a friends town and stole ALL the fruit and cut down ALL the trees... And then I laughed...
