Memento has been updated again! A lot of changes were made to the town itself, but so far I'm really happy with it. You can read about everything that's changed in my recent blog post! The dream address is also posted there.

This is actually the first time I've made a town like this, and saved the DA of. So the fact that progress is going so smoothly is equally comforting and surprising. I don't plan on playing in Memento, that's what my main town is for, but I do plan on gradually adding things to it and updating it on a semi-regular basis. I could always make a blog on here. It wouldn't be as visible as a thread, but if I mentioned it in the thread(or kept a link in my signature) the more dedicated ones would be more likely to follow its progress.

They really are! I will, thanks again c:

Ah, just a really bad sore throat, so it could be worse x.x Thank you for the well wishes c:

Aww me too, thanks :') I'll probably play some today since I'm sick and stuck at home ;-;

I haven't quite given up but I haven't done anything with it yet, either ;w;

Well, you and dizzy are going strong! c: some people probably gave up (like me ;-; ).

Thank you. You're making me blush a lil. ;w; Once it's "finished" I'll probably make a thread for it and then explain every little detail after enough people have visited it. Just talking about it makes me want to keep working on it until I'm able to post it publicly. It's actually getting pretty close to that point. I just need to finish expanding the rooms and dropping the leaves on all the perfect fruit trees. I do need to order like 40 skeletons though lol.

Ah, thank you :') no way! People love your updates in the 2017 thread! c:

Hearing you say that makes me feel assured that others will like it as well. I'm confident that my vision for the town will be clear by the time it's finished, but most of all I think I want people to see the town as a breath of fresh air. Something new that they've never seen before and is an unforgettable experience. :^)

I'm going to save it in the early morning when it's raining. Probably around 4AM or 5AM. That's part of the reason why I wanted so many ponds, so they would look like really big puddles. I wanted to give the impression that Memento is a rainy town.

Thanks! Yes, the tires are new. I also took out one of the wet road signs, to make it look more like an actual road and less like a mess (even though car accidents are messy). The bed with the dead infant is going to have a nurse standing next to it, which I hope will be enough but I can always come up with other stuff to do with it. I was originally going to have some of the rooms be fully expanded, and some not, but I think I'm just going to play it safe and expand all the rooms, in case I want to add more imagery and symbolism.

And that's true! It's kind of like a snowball effect. It looks good now, but as I add more things and continue to make minor adjustments, it will look better and better! When I save the "final" address, everything will look much more put together. I might actually save the town in autumn, so the landscape looks more dead.

Oh that is so cool! That is SUPER creative, and you have a neat background you can tell people about c:

Ha, I have... I added that to my bio on my page because I feel like some friends I made back in the day don't remember me now because of all of the name changes :')

I have this love-hate relationship w/collectibles: I'm sure I'll want them all back someday! Right now I am just keeping ones I've personally bought from the store or were given as presents and that feels good enough to me c:

Dream address has been updated! The new address is 4A00-0037-1169 (not sure why it was changed). Music has been added to the nursery and the closed road rooms. Every room except for the upstairs and downstairs has minor adjustments. Got some news items, but still don't have the funds to expand the rooms yet. Tell me what you think when you get the chance. ^^

Yeah, I think fewer PWPs would be better, but the statue and topiaries might make it seem more like a graveyard. I'm not going to do paths because I want visitors to be able to explore every crevice. If I decided to do paths in the future they'd be dirt paths, but that takes a lot of time from what I understand.

Haha, it wasn't lame :') How did you come up with this one?

You've changed your username!

Nmmm. I think the only PWPs that work with my town are the zen bell, streetlight(s), bus stop, the topiaries, and the wisteria trellis maybe. I'm not really focused on PWPs, just dead trees and weeds, but if the villagers suggest something and I think it'd look good with the town I'll get it.

Thank you! It's not even close to being "done." I can't wait until I can get my hands on the music I need for the rooms. I only need two mannequins, but they're a real pain to get. It's too bad I can't drop them on the ground, otherwise I'd just move over the ones I have in my main town.

I had to put down a metronome in the clock room because they all tick together apparently. And Leif actually showed up in town two days in a row because I've gotten so many weeds. Once everything else is finished I'm gonna plant the carnations, save the DA, and then pick them back up. Switching to the beautiful ordinance and then cancelling it to keep the weeds would be too expensive. ^^;

Yep! It's kind of nice to see the ideas in your head coming to life (or death in this case lol). Not everything I mentioned ended up being in the rooms, but who knows? Everything is still under heavy development. So far my favorite room is the one with the car accident scene. The landscaping is coming along nicely, too. I've been breeding carnations in my main town, and I've gotten several perfect fruit trees to drop their leaves. The DA is 4A00-0036-1810 if you'd like to take a look at what I have so far.

And cool! The one year challenge towns seem so neat, but I'm too much of a time traveler to stay committed to a town like that.
