I've Made a Huge Mistake.

So I have been working on leveling up my llama, Groose, in order to win the llama festival. I am super ready, and I decided to fertilize before the festival. Then my bus is about to arrive, so I save my game. I boot it back up on the bus... and then I realize... it's after 3pm. I missed it. >. <

So what mistakes have you all made? =P. Misery loves company!

Can you not reload?

Haha, well yesterday actually, I saved one night before I went to bed like normal, woke up and it was the first Gardening Tour!!
Bit of a problem there, I never built my garden space or anything because I never saw the need to. I haven't even bought any decoration blueprints other than the ones we need for the town restoration plans.
So I got there and everybody was all excited for the first gardening tour!! ...Only to find out that it was going to be cancelled. Everybody hated me ;_;

So I reloaded from the night before, made a gardening space real quick, and threw some really crappy decorations on it just so I wouldn't get NEGATIVE friend points with people. It really did look horrible. I had like... a stack of bricks, a light post, some crates, a bench maybe? And some hay bales. ...yep.

I've accidentally shipped so many things. I had finally gathered enough Fluorite to make Michelle's house, and I decided to ship the useless stuff I had mined for extra cash. I had saved and went to bed before I realized that I had shipped the Fluorite I needed, too.

Tears were shed on that day...

Continuously left my animals outside all night while I was traveling nearly every single day, one of my cows lost literally all of the hearts it had... and at the time I had it for a year. I didn't realize what was happening until it was too late, I'm just thankful that one cow seems to be the only animal that reacted so badly to me being lazy.

I also made a similar mistake with my first gardening show, I thought I'd have time to do it the morning of so I didn't even put the gardening space down. Hadn't saved in a while so I just went with it.

I saved right in front of Dunhill before entering the first Crop Festival, but, I hadn't looked at the in game time.....it was 2:59 when I saved and Dunhill walked away before I could give him my entry. I'd worked hard growing that 1.5 star potato

I had similar stories, lol. One example is when I finally got the clippers to shear wifi sheeps in order to build the cottage (Rod's house). It turned out that I supposed to make Rod's house with the 5 wools, not ship them. So I made Rod's house on a Sunday instead of Saturday, thus missing my opportunity to catch Neil's 2nd heart event (Rod doesn't move in until the next day, thus Monday). I've been wanting to just knock out Neil's 2nd heart event for completion's sake. xD

I saved before going on a trip to the ruins, only i didn't check the time. I would arrive at 6;59 am D:
One min doesn't help at anything.

I had an alpaca with 9 hearts, found out I needed 3 alpacas born to get the brown one so I got her pregnant... then realized she wouldn't give birth till the day after the alpaca festival... yeup x_x

Also didn't have internet the first half of the game so I didn't have enough honey combs for beehives, shipped a lot of things I needed to build houses and things like that XD now I hoard everything.

I once forgot it was my birthday so I had to reload from 2 days earlier. xD; I really wanted my presents and dinner with Neil. T_T

I get click happy sometimes when planted and misalign, so I plant in only 2 spaces instead of the 4 allotted. I did that 2 or 3 times last night.

I've had one of these happen to me, except I believe the return flight is at 8:00pm.
My flight was at 2:30pm, so I had about a half an hour to go exploring. Even that is not much time to do anything there.

Haha, you guys are HM noobies!

>_>

<_<

I did all those things you guys did.

I left out chickens and went on a trip, they were alright but no eggs - one baby got sick (I have the farm bell just for chickens, the pets take care of animals so they were okay). Always remember now to save before a trip.

Shipped all my gems & everything thinking I was in my supply shed.

Picked up a field, hit Y to pocket it and hit A for "yeah yeah whatever ok!" Thought it was just grass..there went a whole field of carrots being fertilized for the festival. Had to reload >_<.

Being a HM veteran, I usually save on both files. One for night, one for whatever during the day (like before festivals and such). But my other file has a new clean start when I thought I screwed up bad building the pet dispenser before placing the pet house. Since that file is so old, I should baleet it and use the save spot!

But just in case - it's end of Spring on that one so avoids all the tutorials in case I restart.

Impregnated my cow and missed the cow festival. x.x I am in year 4 on my first file, and for some reason I had missed 3 out of the 4 cow festivals x.x I entered my Cow in the 4th year, and I lost! Really made me frustrated ;w; I really wanted that old-style cow.

Accidentally hammered my sheep...

Put my characters birthday in fall while romancing amir (I was like Nope, started again(Still have the old save file since I'm also romancing sanjay but the fall issue wasn't fun...) (*coughandiwantedtostartoveragaincough*)

saved after attempting to give the ring to everyone (I'm getting all the rejected dialogues) and saved write down all sleeping dialogues, I saved unconsciously after forgetting about the festival (stayed up till 3 in the morning (in game time).

Random question.

Did you name your llama after the character in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword?
