You can get balloons to release for Bayfolk to chase! You
do not have to be a player in this game to participate!
Getting Balloons
Free balloon: You may send off your first balloon for free, go ahead!
+1: Water Magic: Once per day. When a player throws a fishing line, before they reel it in post *tug*
+3: Bell Magic: At
GMT+0 12:00AM, post the next days date, or anytime after that it hasn't been done already.
+2: Sprout Magic: You must perform Water and Bell magic each, to use Sprout Magic, and both again before using it again. After meeting the prerequisites, you may place a plant next to a parent, either in the same tile or if there are atleast 5 of that adults of the plant, you may put one in an adjacent tile. Copy the pixel map(not the one in this op, look for the newest version of the other one which is much smaller) and add a red dot for red flower, light green dot for a tree sprout(the brown dots are trees), then upload and post your edit. Windows paint standard colors are used whenever possible, however a best guess will work. Plants must only be placed on the green grass tiles.
Send Balloons
Simply post *balloon* to release one over Bay Town. Like many things in this game, this is honor based so it's up to you to track your balloons!
If you are a Bayfolk(again, you don't have to be!) you don't get to catch your own balloons.
You can improve the gifts in a balloon by spending additional ones at the same time, simply add extra "o"s to balloon for each extra one spent.
Balloon Presents
At this time presents will contain only bells. Balloons must land in a tree for you to get the present. (At this time, trees are not yet effecting this game) If someone posts *balloon*, simply post *shake tree* before anyone else to get the gift. If an hour passes after the *balloon* post it floats away...
Bayfolk
If you see one(*balloon*) and 1 HOUR hasn't passed, post *shake tree* for 10 bells! If there are extra "o"s beyond the normal 2, you get an extra 10 bells per "o"!
