1.6 Update What happened in your game today?

[Rahnee]

I had originally wanted to just repeat floor 1 to get stone (as my mines are set to dangerous and the stone is harder to mine there than in the skull cavern)

Actually I like spamming floor one of the dangerous mines for stone. The "dangerous" rocks that look like little meringues drop 2-4 stone per (just skip the rest), and there's a much better chance of getting lots of them than even one big 10-stone rocks when the mines are normal. I get an average of 30 and a high point of 50 stone per reload, and you don't ever have to walk far ;).

Problem is, I want to get the stupid clock out of the way, so I'm not too crazy about spending a fortune on rocks...

Rock is denser in the volcano. When I need a lot of rock fast, bombing the first few volcano floors usually gets me there.

Using a Deconstructor on Staircases (which you've traded for in the Calico Desert) is a good lategame option for getting lots of Stone, too.

Today I switched my sturgeon pond to Legend II (which I'd been keeping for a year at least!), and I plan to switch the rest also - I want to try the challenge of catching as many as I can the next time the quest comes up. Changed my profession to Pirate to better fish for animal crackers for the ponds and to round out my barn animals for completeness.

My slimes are happy! I had no idea how quickly they really can multiply. Although, the blue slimes are lagging behind the red ones, I think because the male blue slimes are casting eyes over the fence at the female red slimes. Every time I walk by the females are jumping at me but the males are on the other side looking besotted

Put down an additonal 15 dehydrators in the dining area to do something about the common mushroom problem. The problem may not be common, but the mushrooms are. Too many of them for my mushroom/roe shed to handle, since purple mushrooms have priority there. Going through 80 common mushrooms per day will help.

Got another Extended Family quest, and waited one day to accept it, not wanting to start it at 11 pm. 9 more Legend II for the smokers. Might've got more if I hadn't prioritized farm chores and gathering the mushrooms and tree sap.

I should go down to Marnie's and buy myself some more goats, since I've reduced the pigs to just 5, and will likely get rid of the rest before Winter is over.

Why do you have so many shrooms?

good lord i love this so much.

Red slimes ftw
Those blue ones know what they did

Honestly, if it's late game i just buy em up from Robin

The mushroom logs were my big money-maker early and mid-game. Then I kept it going and traded out the spruces until the grove up at the railroad was all mystic trees. Currently the grove has 114 mystic trees, all fitted with tappers. And I guess there may be 3-4 mushroom logs per tree. The common and red mushrooms are side products, but I still want to process the common mushrooms rather than just sell them.

Once I've traded out the ancient fruit wine, the dried purple mushrooms are next, but right now they're being traded in. Year 11's seen them increase from 19 stacks to 22 stacks. The year's not over yet, but it seems unlikely that I'll get another full stack of them before Spring.

I hit a creative wall with my farm. Also, I did something out of order which I think messed up my ability to reach perfection. So I’m starting over and trying Riverland Farm for the first time (with much enthusiasm). My farmer is so slow and my tools are so bad, but just the usual early game pains.

I'm a habitual restarter myself, but I'm trying to think of a single thing that could prevent you from reaching perfection and can't come up with one.

I am in awe of the scale you've achieved! So many tappers......

Not much is happening with me while I wait for max hearts with second child so I can embiggen my house, except... I just went into the Skull Cavern in mid-afternoon, with just a handful of staircases and my fairy box - no food and no buffs - just to while away the time and slay some monsters. When I was through I noticed that I had gotten the Genie shoes!!!! Woo!!!
