What Ordinance do you think you guys will be setting for your town? :)

Beautiful town without a doubt. I can't wait until I can stop having to water my flowers!!

- - - Post Merge - - -

Okay, I can't seem to get a straight answer on what actions are repeatable or not repeatable on getting the development permit, and the percentages.

One website said each time you donate to the museum you will get 7%. Another said you will only get the 7% once.

Also every website I consult says watering flowers gets you 3% a flower but I watered like 7 and my rating only went up 1%??

Does anyone know for certain?

From my experience, the museum you only get points for once. Also I'm guessing you hadn't already watered those flowers? Cause I think that only counts once too but I have never heard of them each getting you 3%.

I'm pretty sure writing on the Bulletin Board gives you some points as does writing to your villagers and running errands for them.
 
Okay, I decided to transfer a few items that were given to me as gifts, along with the outfit I like best. Everything else is either going away when I restart, or it's being given to the friend who's holding the things I'm keeping for me. I'm pretty pleased - I was able to give her a near-complete Gorgeous set... gave her everything but the table, the one piece I never got.

I've got criteria planned for my map, and I'll be resetting for it sometime tomorrow. I've also got most of a list of dreamies picked out. This is really exciting!
 
Well I finished my day today!

Here's basically everything that happened:

I started my town obviously. I made the day I started January 1st, and after I got the option to save I went to the current date. :)

I posted my town map up here a while ago.

My villagers right now are:
-Drift
-Rasher
-Tia
-Walker
-Gigi
-Peggy (House Plot)

My town fruit is Peaches. I'm Mayor Jenna from Insanity.

I placed my house in the place Kit suggested.

I bought a nice shirt, and I also bought a shovel, my town pass card picture, and a fortune cookie which I got Peach's Parasol from.

I dug up my fossils, and sold them. I'll work on my fossil collection later on, but right now I need the money. I got the 10,000 needed, and payed off my loan. I chose the blue roof. I stopped playing, and I'm excited to check on my town tomorrow. :)

Oooh may I adopt Tia when and if she moves out? That's if your willing to part with her.

Remember guys I have persimmons and mangoes for anyone who needs them!

Im still undecided on my ordinance to get! Im always having beautiful, would be nice to try something else. But the only that would work for me would be Weathly.

Even though in up early the Early bird wouldnt work as i only have time to get sorted for work. And same with Nightowl im pretty much in bed by 10pm lol.

So may go with Weathly then change to Beautiful when things get going. Idk.

Also Tortimer came to visit and talk about the Island and ill be going to see Buck who's moved in. Other then that its going to be hunting for fossils, fishing and catching bugs. With speaking to villagers to!
 
SensaiGallade, would I be able to come over and collect those pears from you? (and use your bingo guy if you don't mind :p)
 
Got the chance to choose my ordinance today! Fitzrova will be a Beautiful Town - I forgot how tedious it is to water flowers all the time.
I also picked and got Isabelle to approve a place for the campsite. I wanted to get my 2nd bridge in place first but Isabelle won't let me build it as it's too close to Penelope's house (ugh). And I think I can get away with only needing 2 bridges in my town so I really don't want to build any that I'll tear down later.
Garden Shop is open! Bought Leif out of flowers and he had a cedar sapling on sale. Can't wait to get the axe and get rid of some annoying trees.
Tortimer also invited me to the island. So hopefully I'll be able to pop over and do that tomorrow.
 
AHHHHHH! I can't believe what I've just done!! I meant to save, but pressed the power button without saving. >.< I'd just activated Streetpass, and it said it was saving, so will all my stuff up until that save be saved?

If it fully saved when it said it did, it should've saved!
 
Rosemoor so far...

The end of day 2

So yesterday after doing the regular and daily stuff, I went and visited Kit's town as well as ItsMilkypinks town for Snowman Bingo as well as some shopping. Later at night, I did a little (just a little...) shopping on the forums and managed to get a hold of a dragon jacked, worn out jeans and a basket of persimmon's and mangoes (curtesy of HM Caprica. Check out her TBT shop!) for cheap! After long hours of looking...

I caught a stringfish! The end of day 2...

Day 3 so far!

So starting off day 3, my house had been upgraded from a tent to the 4x4 home!

Next Marshal had moved in (cries tears of joy) so I went and greeted him!

I done the regular fossil digging, money rock and ore breaking only to scrape enough bells to pay off my second mortgage of 39,800 bells!

So far my approval rate is 87%. Will update on this! Also...

I am pleased to announce that I am in the midst of creating a Google Drive spreadsheet which will act as a checklist for bugs, fish and deep sea creatures and will contain ALL the info you need for hunting for them! And it's open for everyone to save to their drive and use! Will post more as I get closer to completing it!
 
@Sensai, awesome accomplishments. Also, I would love to use that google drive. I've already caught all but one of the January fish and most of the year round fish so it's progressing fast.

Thanks! I was just thinking how I could keep track of everything to catch in the game then I realised that you can share Google Drive documents and others can edit them so I just thought I'd try it out!
 
I am seriously considering doing this, but I'd have to time travel at least once, because I need the 1/1 start date, lmao... I'd go nuts if it were just a day or two off.

That's what I did. Kit was okay with it!!



I haven't been on my game today haha. My goal is to get up my approval rating and get some more fruit by playing with you guys!

(I'll go on in 10 minutes I won't be lazy even though I just woke up xD)
 
Currently plot reseting Skye right now. I have three possible locations I'd like her to plot her house down right now. She's gotten close to one so far, but that area is very.. specific. Too far left or right and the house is either to close to my house, or too close to a pond near my house.

Gonna be a long morning. XD

I'm not going to plot reset xD. For some reason I've only plot resettled once in my whole time in New Leaf, and it was Rosie. I don't think I'll be plot resetting in Insanity.

I'm going to plot specific villagers, namely my dreamies.
