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



I went out and picked up an extra copy for this! I don't know if I'll keep up very well, but it still seems like fun! I'm super happy we have a discord chat too!!! <3 Is there a form or anything to fill out for participation? <3



Nope! Saying you want to sign up is enough!
 
Day 1

So under the cut I collected some screenshots of my first day :3

Greeting all the shop owners

So sad :( I can't wait for my charger to play my town
And to play my other town also I miss them bad

but as soon as I get charger at jan. 6 IL start at 1 and then travel regular time :)
 
I finally found a map I like

Mayor Susanna of Burray

Fruit is apples and my starting villagers are Cookie, Annalise, Eloise, Axel and Lucky.

I have taken a picture of the tree planting ceremony but I don't know how to post it on here.

I am in Scotland so I will be a few hours ahead of the US timewise.

I'm still getting used to the new discord rooms, so I wanted to post Nascent's map here!

http://i818.photobucket.com/albums/... Crossing/ACNL 2017 challenge/Nascent map.jpg

There's a lot of room for PWPs, the station is blue, and I got peaches, so after tons of map resets I'm pretty happy! I got two slightly nicer maps earlier but with rocks in awful places lol~

Message me if you want to add and come get peaches! (can't tonight, dead tired x-x) And I'll post all the screen shots I took after I find my connect cable since the new DS doesn't have an easy-access SD slot -A-

That's BEAUTIFUL! :D I made a one-tile path for now, it's supposed to be a place-holder but I actually kinda like it, so I might use it~ I'll put up pictures once I find my usb cable :p

I'm new on the forums and would love to join the challenge and make friends with other mayors! :3

If I'd seen this earlier I would've waited until today, but my town is only four days old and I just couldn't bear parting with it at this point. Unfortunately, it is currently in March (because I originally wanted a Spring start), so I'll have to bend time once to move to the current date - I hope I'll still be welcome to join under those conditions! :eek:

~ Mayor Kit of Elysium

P.S. I'd be glad to trade Oranges for Peaches or Apples
 
I would like to join, if possible. c: I don't have Wi-Fi very often, but hopefully this will be a nice way to interact with fellow players anyway.
 
I want to sign up for this, don't see a link about those unfamiliar with discord...I'm also not on I,argue but with some help I use my iPad not my PC to use for belltrees ect many reasons easy carry anyway sign me up but do help me with the discord connect question I had a busy weekend so it's an hr after Jan 1 but I'm doing it now..night owl will be on page with all shortly too :). But need discord link for this thread.
 
I put a link to my OYC tumblr in my signature if anybody wants to follow =D

Got my loan paid off today but I only got my net so far and since it's New Years I couldn't get the fishing rod from Isabelle. But I got a bagworm and a rollie pollie pillbug donated as well as my first 4 fossils. Planted my perfect orange. Tonight's plan is trying to find/make a cute path for my town!
 
Since the rules have changed, advertisement of Discord servers is not allowed now unless it is in the signature. So once I make the server public, I would really appreciate it if the Discord is advertised in signatures!

Also, will add everyone who have asked to join to the spreadsheet soon as well as send out Discord links.
 
Town of Elysium

Mayor: Kit
Native Fruit: Oranges
Grass Type : Triangle
Original Villagers: Cole, Cookie, Kiki, Sheldon, Elise

This map is all I could have hoped for and I'm thrilled to take part in the challenge! I'd love to trade fruit with anyone, particularly for peaches or apples :3

HNI_0031.JPG

so far my approvalrating is at 48percent. will try and get it too 100 later today.
but for now thats enough.

i also have oranges and pears for my fruits if anyone wants them.
ive just planted my pears so theyll be ready soon!
 
Day 2
~ Play session length: about 90 minutes

- Monty is moving in tomorrow
- Found all the fossils
- Completed the 'Advice for living here' "quests" - I now have a shovel, fishing rod, net and watering can
- Talked to all my villagers - they're all giving me tutorials
- Sent a letter to Whitney
- Completed 2 of 4 MEOW coupon "quests"
- Paid my down payment; will be getting a red-roofed house tomorrow
- Current approval is 25% - I haven't been doing anything specific towards this and I will most definitely be picking up the game later to start working on my encyclopedia.

So far, it's been a productive day! I've cleared up lots of little things and I'm still inclined to play more!
Probably later today (maybe 5 - 6PM or later, GMT) I would like to trade fruits with everyone! Currently, I have oranges (native) and pears off of Isabelle. PM me if you have peaches, cherries or apples you're willing to spare!
