January 1st, 2016-The One Year Animal Crossing Challange Thread

So I restarted Old Oak and all is going well at this point... I'm having fun trying to do things legitimately instead of cheating :p Currently working on the town development permit. I didn't get to do the stuff with Isabelle on my first day (cuz of the event) so I didn't get a watering can - is it still possible to get it from her?

Also:

Villagers: Felicity, Del, Eloise, Prince, Molly
Fruit: cherry
Layout: awesome. It's so easy to get around.

You still get the can from her after finishing the tips she gives you.
 
O'Hare is my 6th villager (<3), and he's moving in at a perfect spot! Thank god, I'm too lazy to do plot resetting at this point.
 
Just caught an oarfish!

Strinfish and oarfish were the 2 rarest for January, so I'm doing pretty well so far!
 
My tools are the same as yesterday so no watering can. Approval rating remains at 23% after a bit of effort. Looks like it won't be happening today, but that's OK! :) My sixth villager is Bluebear and she decided to plot her house near Beau and I. We're starting a little neighborhood by the looks of it.

Here's a few screens. One from yesterday and one from today.

Nice catches, Trundle!

I caught an oarfish myself yesterday. Haven't caught a stringfish yet.
 
I am not participating in this challenge, but I will like lurking this thread. I would love to participate, to be honest. :p
I was wondering if any challenges are going to be put up for this? Such as 'breed all hybrid flowers'. If I remember correctly, there were prizes for the fastest last year. I think it would be fun to add them to this year's challenge as well! I'm asking because I am going to do the challenges as well, despite not really participating in the challenge. It gives me things to do and it'll help me progress my town. :blush:

May I ask this question again (to Kit)?
 
I"VE FINALLY GOTTEN 100%!! It's only taken me all day! XD

I've also paid off my 39,800 bells for the house, donated more stuff to the museum , got some of the ice set to as snow-m'am is only asking for 3 snowflakes.

I think i'm done for today XD

- Found the money and gem rocks.
- Donated the fossils I had collected.
- Talked to all of my villagers.

- Did Isabelle's little "quests" to get a watering can and 3 oranges.
- Planted the 3 oranges.
- Built a Bingo Snowman.
- Visited Kit and SensaiGallade and talked to their Bingo Snowmen.
- Kit and SensaiGallade came and visited my snowman.

I managed to find a map that I liked yesterday! Simmi from Aquari! As my sign is Aquarius <3
My native fruit is apples, been wanting apples for the longest time so I'm very happy!
Haven't played much but now that I'm done with work I'm going to work on getting my 100% approval rating!!
 
~ double post

@Trundle, if you still need apples I can give you a basket :)

Starry also suggested we do challenges and I'm thinking that might be a good idea
Maybe have some challenges on a weekly/monthly basis? I would need some good ideas for them from you guys too though.

OK I understand, just be very careful with editing! Hope everything goes smoothly :) Also I have a few pears for you!
Still needing those pears, hahah I had went out to the mall everyone, sorry about that.
I'll stop by for the pears after I get the whole Rosie's house business in order :)
Do you want some peaches in return?

Some ideas for challenges:

- Get all the shops on Main Street
- Upgrade T&T's fully

- Get all possible fruits

You don't have to use these, by any means. Just some ideas. ^-^

I like your list ^_^
I'm going to enact a easy challenge for our first week, starting today...


Get all possible fruits!
By all possible I'm going to stick with just the starter fruits as nobody can access the island yet (I forget, is it after the 39k house loan? if so I can expand the challenge to those fruits as well but I feel as though it may be a little much this week.)

I have Peaches. I need apples, oranges, pears & cherries!
At the end of each week I'll take everyone who completed the challenge (proof could be with a screenshot of you next to the 5 fruits or something) and put them on a list ^_^
