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

Good luck to everyone who's doing this. I started a month earlier, I guess.
 
Aw. Awesome! :D
I was just thinking earlier that I would start a new town for 1/1 and that someone should post a one year challenge thing for the new year ^-^ My wish came true, lol. Count me in.
I'll be a mayor of Jolranch. My mayor's name is yet to be decided. I'll keep you posted.
 
Couldn't view my post. The mods need to do something about this.

It's happened a lot. Just a glitch. I don't think there's much the mods can do about it, though.

Okay. I figured it out :D
I'll be Mayor Acid of Jolranch.
 
I swear every map I like has freaking oranges. I don't want a perfect fruit that looks like it has a tumor or something.

Tell me about it.

I'm hoping to get either Apples or Peaches as my Town's fruit. Preferably Apples, since those perfect apples look so gorgeous.
 
I'm considering going with this map:

Pros:
Cherries
Lots of room around Town Hall for decorating
Two ponds close to each other
Only two ponds
Rocks seem to be in decent places and as far as I can tell there's only 4 (Not including potential gem rock)
Long beach with a small private one
South waterfall
Large area in the beach for decorating (not sure what to call it)
THIS RAMP AHHH I LOVE THIS RAMP

Cons:
Retail is far from the dock
Plaza is not centered
Villagers are horrible (but they can and will be moved out)
River isn't that great, or at least not what I had in mind, but I can work with it

I personally think I should go for it. What about you guys?
By the way, put me down as mayor Diancie of Sapphire.

I actually got a similar layout about 15 minutes ago. I looked around and it didn't click with me.

Al is one of my favourites, and the map looks great. I'm a tad jealous haha
 
Since I managed to get a map I like on 1/1, I guess I'll get in on this!

Town name: D'ni
Mayor: Ti'ana
 
Found an amazing town layout.. but it had Pears as my town's fruit. Ugh. Such a turn off. XD
 
Well, it's official:

I wanted to put it a few spaces lower but Nook wouldn't let me.


One of the downsides of starting your town on January 1st at 2am is that the shops are closed, so you can't buy things, sell things, or pay your loan, and Isabelle is outside for the event and therefore you can't get started on mayoral duties for another day.

I don't get why everyone hates pears. They're cool.
A bit boring, but better than oranges at least.
 
I've just arrived in Midas! I'll try to play once a day and keep everyone updated through tumblr. Here's the map and my starting villagers.

I'm thrilled Bam is one of my starting villagers, I've always wanted him and never had the chance to have him. My native fruit is the pear, and I've also never had perfect pears before, so I'm pleased with everything so far!

Well, it took me a little over 5 hours, but Karakusa has officially been created!

View attachment 160557

I can't get an image of the town layout, but the town has:

- Peaches (I wanted Apples or Peaches).
- Town plaza is dead center of the town.
- Waterfall faces south.
- Nine rocks, but none are really in bad locations.
- If I'm correct, my grass is the star pattern.
- CHIEF (favourite villager)!! <3


EDIT: Used Miiverse to get my Town Map.
