🌹Animal Crossing Journals: The 1 Year Challenge, 2017 Edition🌹

[MayorBlueRose]

i didnt play at all on thursday.

but i play a little on wedneaday;
Winnie was in my campsite and even though i had 9 villagers she was being such a cow about moving in, must of asked her at least 10 times and in the end i just gave up! i used to like her but after that stand up i dont think i do any more!! grrr!!!

I played a little yesterday and poppy was in my campsite played a few games of the cost a lot to see if shed give me the stew pot but nothing. will try again with the next villager lol. i didnt want her in my town as shes already in my main town.

will play a little this morning and will hopefully go to the island tonight!

Tomorrow the monthly Lottery will take place! All people who have entered the challenge will be entered and randomly picked!

 

[NeonStardust]

Haha... I haven't been posting on here, mainly the Discord server.

I found a good Turnip trade today so I spent a few hours grinding for turnips and gained a few million bells... I think I am good for the rest of the game unless I want the bell badges.

I also removed all greenery from my town to help me plot villagers and make my paths. This was a bit wasteful imo, but I would've probably removed everything anyway.

I went to a few peoples towns to trade fossils and now I have 48/67 fossils!

Later today I might upload all my encyclopedia to the Discord server for this month's challenge :3

 

[SensaiGallade]

With the use of Random.org and the spreadsheet, the winners of the first TBT Lottery have been picked! In 3rd place we have...

Spoiler

HeyImDashie!

Next up in second place, we have...

Spoiler

Roxer9000!!

And the winner of the lottery is...

Spoiler

Locket!!!

Each winner will receive 1 million, 2 million and 3 million in respect of their order! Unfortunately, I will not be able to distribute prizes until next weekend when I am freed up.

Thank you all! May I tell you we have some special challenges coming up for February!​

1/29

Finished donations for a Fairy Tale Town Hall upgrade~
took every last bell out of my savings and sunk it into turnips, made ~13 mill in a friend's town ಥ‿ಥ
Update later~ I haven't done much in town since selling the turnips took so freaking long ^^;;

(Also, un-related note. Just watched Markiplier play to the moon for the first time and wowee I cried a lot, lol~ Also, partially related:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALV8rinsT0Q A lyrical adaptation for the old cafe' music! Made me feel super happy and I really like all the game music on her channel~ It's what made me look up "to the moon")

I didn't even realize that there was a lottery! But thanks

 

[KaydeeKrunk]

Congrats to the winners!

Today my Cafe opened! I got my very first coffee from Brewster, and I got to have it right next to Etoile! She said she enjoys the Kilimanjaro beans!

I didn't do a whole lot else beside buy out my stores and sell off the stuff I didn't want, I've been working on a blueprint for my mayor's house. OH I did have Viche over for the first time to the RV site and she was super cute, kind of a waste cause I realized I didn't really want any of her stuff, but I wasn't on long enough to offer visits. I definitely will on my days off though!

I have all all three compatible Splatoon amiibo, the sanrio set, and working on getting more of the WA, I have a few so far. So I'll be offering visits if people want to meet any of them and buy their stuff!

 

[Mayor-of-Bliss]

[Mayor-of-Bliss]

Things are going well so far in Bliss
Today:
*Paid off a lot on gift shop. 18k left.
*Daily stuff (water flowers, money rock ect.)
*cookies- master sword, Varian?suit the metriod shirt thing can't spell
*cleaned out my closet...need to sort clothes for Gracie into styles but I'm to lazy whatever.

I really felt like fishing today but my pet bunny chomped my 3DS charger in half. Whoops. (My bunny is okay and wasn't hurt he just looked proud of himself. He said it was obviously a snake he saved me from. Getting a new charger tomorrow maybe but saving the battery.)

Sorry that I haven't been posting! I wanted to get my town up and running!
Today I paid off another suspension bridge
did daily chores
got an emotion (sorrow)
i'm still playing and will update you guys!

 

[Cai-crossing]

Playing daily still, but I've been awful about keeping track :<
Doing all of my dailies EXCEPT I keep forgetting to bring Shrunk fruit in the afternoon @_@ The times I play are generally before he opens his doors and after the club actually opens ^^;

I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN BLUE ROSES! I've gotten tons of black, pink, and purple, but no blue yet *sigh*

I ended up failing the January challenge of getting a villager picture, and never submitted my January fish, bug, and diving screenies ^^;; But still! Good luck in February everyone! One month down!

(Also, off-topic, but my 9-year anniversary with my darling is on the 8th! Super excited! Also will probably forget to update this sunday for the usual D&D meet up <3 )

[KaydeeKrunk]

So I moved in Clyde, Annalise moved out, but since she was in boxes when I moved in Clyde I still had to pick someone to replace so I moved out Robin too. So today I was at 9 villagers so I just told wisp I want Vladimir to move in so now I have Etoile, Diana, Clyde and soon to be Vladimir already moved in! Getting my dreamies pretty steadily. Woo!

 

[SensaiGallade]

Updated the front with the current events and time stamps!

 

[ZebraQueen]

february 1-2

nothing much really
bella its gonna move in tomorrow i adopted her today
today was groundhog day
shampoodle has been built
i think i said around cafe got requested but where i want it a villager is there who i want it to move away

 

[KaydeeKrunk]

Vladimir picked the perfect plot today which was really awesome can't wait to see him tomorrow! I was too lazy to coerce another villager to move in today though, I'm back at 10 so I'll have to move someone out and I feel like they'll just plot right where the previous villager moved out... Guess we wont know until it happens.
