Hey. Would this section be appropriate to add a list of possible "Alien" encounters? Seeing as how it's something exclusive to Mingle Mode. Just wondering. ElTipejoLoco 11:06, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Well i don't think it's smth. important as they are just a bunch of random one-liners... well here's the list:

a cuckoo

a monkey's uncle

a Plutonian

a Jovian

an unknown lifeforms

a string of bad luck

your big chance

Mr. or Ms. Right

the winds of change

Just what you needed

the one who got away

a nagging feeling

a childhood memory

the hero within you

some bodacious vibes

that loving feelin'

your shining prince

a secret admirer

your future lover

hope for the future

bliss on a stick

a vengeful spirit

the impossible

hot coffee

some nasty juju

the guy ahead of you

the doorframe of life

a psycho hose beast

yourself in 20 years

another you

WiFi points & Mingle settings Edit

Now, this could all be one nifty little coincidence, but I had something peculiar happen to me a few days ago. I brought the DS out into my office and set it about 5 feet from my wireless router. At the same time, I then limited the number of contacts to 3. I came back less than an hour later, and already 2 contacts had been found. Increasing the number of contacts to limit to 2 more interactions (all during the same Mingle session), less than an hour brought me another two aliens.

As opposed, a few nights earlier I left the DS on overnight in mingle mode, about 7 hours, and it only found 2 aliens.

I'm thinking, then, that if in the mingle menu you limit the number of contacts, it might generate aliens more quickly. Just a hypothesis, though. Shint 15:32, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

sounds more like murphys law... (the less you need, the more you get and vice versa)

Advice on finding Aliens? Edit

Hey, i have pretty much disregarded most pins that require MPP to evolve, since i live out in the country and have extremely limited access to others with both a DS and TWEWY.

Anyone have any advice on how to attract aliens so I can try to evolve some of the sicko pins that require MPP.

Thanks, ill check back on this later.Deanos420 19:06, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Well, there's no real way to attract Aliens, but you could just try what I did: Find someone who has another DS, or a Wii, and just keep grabbing civvie contacts from them. --Urth 12:28, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

finding aliens Edit

I've had no trouble with getting 1-2 aliens overnight so far , and since mpp counts 9(or 10?) times as much as bpp , its usually more than enough to make them evolve by filling the rest of the gauge with bpp.. now , really , with 200 mpp you'd need 1800 bpp in order to end up with a 50/50 bar... and most pins evolve with less than 2000pp , so there shouldn't be any problem.

Aliens are completely random. The only thing you can do to increase your chances of encountering one is to Mingle for longer periods of time. I suggest plugging in your DS and leaving it in Mingle Mode overnight or while you're at work/school/whatever. --Marshmello 01:34, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Easy Aliens Edit

I completely gave up hope getting any pins evolved via MPP (because I don't have a Wii/PS3/XBox, or any friends with a DS or TWEWY, and there aren't any download stations around), but looked around for info about Aliens in walkthroughs and this wiki, and decided to give it a try to get all the Pins. I now have 100% Pin mastery thanks to Aliens! Anywho~ I always Mingle by sending out a Yukata or Maid Costume, and get around 4 Aliens for every... 8 hours or so. When I turn on my DS for about an hour and send out a Yukata, though, I usually find 1 within the hour. I needed to find a few Aliens yesterday, so I sent out a Yukata, watched half of The Office, and came back to my DS, and I had an Alien already. I tend to get an Alien really quickly when I send out a Yukata, so... maybe it depends on what you Mingle with/send out. For instance, I sent out a Maid Costume a few nights ago, went to sleep, and woke up with 5 aliens (I always set my counter on 5-6). On the other hand, I sent the Maid Costume out the next night, and only got 2 (fyi, I sleep for about 10 hours every night). I've sent out Black Cat books, Biker Gloves, Pi-Face's Coat, various pieces of food... but I never get that many Aliens (maaayyybe 1-2 Aliens overnight). Wow, that's a lot of typing... xD Anyway, I hope I helped. 69.171.164.218 20:17, June 26, 2011 (UTC)
