v1 maskitchi matchmaker absence

Hi there!

I put a battery in my v1 tama yesterday, after several months of not playing with tamagotchi at all.

I found that I had a Maskitchi girl, on 3rd generation.

After putting the time right, I cared for her like normally.

She was 8 years old, and I don't want her to become an oldie, so I googled "v1 matchmaker times" and found a very intresting old post;

https://www.tamatalk.com/IB/topic/172029-v1-matchmaker/

The top comment on that topic says the v1 matchmaker times are 10:30, 15:00, and 19:00.

As 19 o'clock arrived yesterday, I was excited, but nothing happened.

Another comment said that v1's were a bit touchy when it came to altering the time, so I thought that the matchmaker hadn't come because I had just started the tama, and changed the time so recently, so I figured the matchmaker would visit today instead.

I sneaked the tama with me to school today, and kept the tama on, checking, but finding no matchmaker at half to eleven, and missing the three o'clock supposed visit.

At home later in the day, 19 o'clock came without no matchmaker, and now I'm kinda worried.

Re-reading the old topic I linked to, I wonder if it's something special with v1-maskitchi matchmaker visits, or what the problem exacly might be...

I'm having no problems at all with the tamagotchi in general except for this, and I don't see how it could be broken...

Help me someone? She is 9 now, oldie evolving is coming up...!

Just wait it out. Watch her a lot. If she becomes an oldie, try downloading her. The matchmaker is sometimes late. I don't have a V1, but I doubt there would be some special marriage condition for Masktchi on this Tamagotchi (wouldn't it have been discovered and posted by now?)

Hope this helps. Tell us what happens.

I paused the time after 19:00 on the day she turned 10.

I'll just have to have another tama grow up and marry her...

Hmm, that is probably wise. Then again, if you raise her and another adult both up to oldie stage, you can marry them and get Oyajitchi... just a possibility.

Or just marry an adult.

Yes, sometimes when I set the time on Tamagotchis to make the matchmaker come, she never appears. Perhaps you could try it again and see.

I've got a v3 boy on the way now, but I don't think I'll let them become oldies, to be honest, Otokitchi scares me

Thanks for your concern and help, guys!

By the way, on the older versions the matchmaker will ALWAYS visit right before it evolves into an oldie. Its like one last chance.

Really? that's something new... Are you sure?

I might try it, since the v3 I tried for my v1 turned out to have problems with the IR communication...
