So, tonight is a big TV watching night for me. While I like to take advantage of cheap ticket Tuesday at the theatre, there's not much of interest to me playing right now so I'll stay in tonight. Perfect time to make a lot of back and forth visits if someone wants to leave their gates open for me.

As well, by my calculations, I just need 10 visits to my town and I have the Gold Hosting badge so maybe someone would be free to do that tonight as well. C'mon NWR. We can do it!

Are you free for visits? I can make a few before bed.

I was just getting the next day going for Mafia. What the heck? I'll watch Person of Interest now and let you come over.

Firing up now!

Stratos · « **Reply #754 on:** February 11, 2015, 02:53:57 AM »

Going to bed. I lost count but that should have pushed you over.

Have a good night.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #755 on:** February 11, 2015, 03:07:24 AM »

By my count, I thought you were at 9 but I was also watching TV at the same time. Guess I'll find out if Phineas is in town when I check up tomorrow. Thanks and good night.

Stratos · « **Reply #756 on:** February 12, 2015, 07:28:43 PM »

We can known that lat visit out tonight if you want.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #757 on:** February 12, 2015, 07:31:58 PM »

It would have to be later tonight like 9:00 pm your time.

Stratos · « **Reply #758 on:** February 13, 2015, 12:17:57 AM »

Well I just got home. We can do it after you finish up your mafia stuff for the night.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #759 on:** February 13, 2015, 12:19:31 AM »

I can log on now. It's just you playing really while I leave my gates open. If you can make 4 quick back and forth visits, I really think that should be it. Afterwards, if you want to leave your gate open, I'll start making a few trips over to your town again.

Stratos · « **Reply #760 on:** February 13, 2015, 12:20:36 AM »

Sounds good. I'll get rolling.

*Getting some food first

Khushrenada · « **Reply #761 on:** February 13, 2015, 12:29:31 AM »

Scratch that. Phineas is in town giving me the gold hosting badge. You got me over the line after all. (This is only the second time I've checked in game since we last met up.)

Therefore, you just need to open your gates and I'll do some back and forth duty.

Stratos · « **Reply #762 on:** February 13, 2015, 12:43:10 AM »

Gates open!

Khushrenada · « **Reply #763 on:** February 13, 2015, 12:57:35 AM »

Coming now.

Something I'll mention but I doubt we'll get to tonight is that when we've done these visits in the past, I always seem to get disconnected on the 22 visit. Yet, when I've host people in my town, I've had some make 30 visits with no issue. I wonder why you have that limit at that number.

Stratos · « **Reply #764 on:** February 13, 2015, 01:29:36 AM »

Free space on my SD card? Maybe there is data written to the memory while it is running like that in multiplayer mode but they didn't expect people to play like we do and so they didn't build some limiter to keep an error from occurring.

I'm half tempted to delete some demos to see if it increases my visit limit.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #765 on:** February 13, 2015, 01:37:17 AM »

Maybe but my memory is close to full on my 3DS and yet I've had longer back and forth visit strings.

As it turns out, I'm actually now making my 14th visit so maybe I will make it to that 22 mark yet.

Stratos · « **Reply #766 on:** February 13, 2015, 01:42:35 AM »

Going to bed so it may lock up and I won't be bringing it back online tonight. We'll get lots done this weekend I am sure.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #767 on:** February 13, 2015, 02:18:18 AM »

Well, I made it to 25 visits and nothing. Figures. I mention it and it goes away.

Stratos · « **Reply #768 on:** February 13, 2015, 11:01:04 AM »

Sorry, I blame the wife. She saw it sitting open and closed the game while I was asleep.

I think because I was actually active for a while it kept from crashing right away. I suspect it has to do with me being inactive while you visit.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #769 on:** February 13, 2015, 11:03:10 AM »

Actually, when I saw your message that you were just leaving it open, I kept going until it crashed on my 33rd visit. I just posted about the 25th visit since I thought you might still be around and because my predicted error failed to happen.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #770 on:** February 14, 2015, 03:28:47 PM »

So, who wants to open their gates for me to revisit their town over and over today? I'm 7 trips away from the silver badge so I'd like to pick that up and then begin to chip away at that gold badge number.

Stratos · « **Reply #771 on:** February 14, 2015, 03:34:40 PM »

I'll open up gates shortly.

I just realized that when I get a N3DS I could possibly just leave my old system running in AC 24/7 (minus those reboot times). Make it a persistent online server of sorts. Problem is my game is digital. I'll ask my sister if her's is a physical copy and see if she'll let me borrow it. Then you could come whenever you wanted. Could even be a trading post of sorts. People leaving and taking what they need. I'll talk to her today about it.

UncleBob had an idea similar to this but I don't think he ever really enacted it much. A big problem is that you can only have people who's Friend Codes you've entered into your 3DS over. Then there is the need to check the connection all the time in case it fails and you need to reopen the gates. I got 257 trips to make still. That could be a big boost to anyone else who wants a gold hosting badge. If I keep making my visits with you, you'll be even closer since you are at like 133 visitors now yourself. You'll be about 110 visitors away from a gold badge if I stick with you.

Stratos · « **Reply #773 on:** February 14, 2015, 04:43:03 PM »

I figure I would check the connection once or twice a day and refresh it if it glitched out. If it went down and I was gone then not much could be done. People could easily just request me to add them to the 3DS friend code list to gain access.

Khushrenada · « **Reply #774 on:** February 14, 2015, 09:02:17 PM »

So, I've made 72 trips. That gives me a total of 315 trips made. I've got the silver trip badge now. I'm taking a break to do a few other things and then I'm going to pop in a movie and make some more visits if you want to leave or reopen your gates.

Man, after the problems we had a month ago with connections, I'm loving the problem free visits we are having now. This is how I had hoped things would be to get this badge before. 185 more trips to go. It's going to be a while.
