Update: sounds like these are just scratches and nothing to concern myself with. Was worried about potential rust but glad to hear it!

I’ve gotten quite comfortable using this thing for cooking in the year since I first posted, but I’ve noticed this situation on the bottom continuously getting worse, and even think I heard a crackling/popping noise* coming from it while re-seasoning it after making dinner this evening.

Thankfully it’s only on the bottom of the wok and not inside it, but what the heck is going on here?

In case it matters, because it has this flattened portion in the middle I just set it directly on the grates you can see in the background of my parents’ gas stove, or on the electric coils of my apartment’s electric stove.

*For the record I know I heard something but would still be surprised if I knew it came from this. Even if I can’t guess what else it could have come from.

I love EO2U on my 2DS, and it’s the one I have the most playtime in by magnitudes. But the reason I love it so much (the town and restaurant development) is part of what fills me with dread when returning from a break.

This resource is basically required.

And using Safari to read it on my phone? All the beautiful dual screen convenience of my DS is thrown in the garbage while I’m fighting this thing.

After talking to an NPC in the bar telling me about Waspior’s special drops needing frenzy status? Man I sure wish the game registered that in an easily accessible “Information” tab on the bottom screen.

So I wonder whether any of the other games actually do better than EO2U or if that’s just the standard I need to expect.
