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

I just paid the down payment so I can have an actual house tomorrow, but bummed I can't start my development permit and approval rating stuff until tomorrow.
 
Oh i am late to the party x)
Happy new year everyone!
Please add me to the player list!
Mayor Dawn of Sunside :)
 
Alrighty January 1st has been conquered! Started off lucky with a shovel and fishing pole at the Junction. Pears are my native fruit, star grass, and a blue town station/green town hall. The colors of the station and town hall don't bother me because I'll be changing them over to the zen themed ones eventually.

Starting villagers: Camofrog, Tia, Olivia, Beau, and Peck. Really happy to see Beau. I put my house right next to his and we're both near town hall. :) Very happy with my map layout as well. Rocks are in good spots, solid number of ponds, nice river shape. There's a lot of interesting little nooks and crannies, too!

Town Info
- Square snow || triangle grass
- Cherries
- Blue train station
- Red (brown?) town hall

Villagers: Astrid, Wendy, Eunice, Benedict, Bruce.

My home is placed behind Benedict's house; it's a very tight fit, but that is the only location I liked for my house. I'll be moving Benedict out soon.
 
I did it! I got a very nice town, with some pretty awesome villagers. I'm extremely content :]

Here is the ceremony! For the player list, it's Ekul from Ilia. My villagers are Rizzo, Maple, Mac, Twiggy and Erik. Again, very happy with these and hopefully they stay a while.

And here's my map! I'm especially fond of my house position, as well as the acres of space and there's finally no annoying rocks!

Sorry for the picture quality! :3

Now that it's a little brighter out in my town, I've got Circle-patterned grass (lighter colour varient) and octogon patterned snow.
 
Hello everyone, may I join the challenge too?
I was browsing the forums looking for ideas to start playing AC:NL again with a new town, and I found this thread. This seems like the perfect way to make the playthrough more fun and intriguing! So I registered and was hoping I could join :) I am resetting for my town as I write this, still have 4 hours of January 1st in my time zone.
(By the way, happy new year!)

Actually, atar snow is circle grass. I believe you have square

I absolutely love, LOVE this town! There was only two maps I wanted and I had very specific needs for them.
For example, I needed one pond and I refused to have a green train station.
Very happy with my starting villagers as well, I just wish that Coco hadn't moved right in front of my retail.

Loving everyone's towns so far!

Aah you have fang *-* i want him too!
My starters are lolly, flora, sly, dizzy and astrid. C:
 
Happy New Year everyone!

Please add me to the list, Mayor Princess of Cuddles!
I'm actually surprised that i found my ideal map in only ~10 resets. Circle/star grass and peach as my town fruit. A river facing down so that i could see the waterfall properly and only one pond. Also wanted retail to be near the train station and town hall to be out of the way of the rest of the town. I love how my town tree is sort of centered in the bottom half of the map and to top it off, my museum is on the right side (which is what i prefer). ;D

My starting villagers aren't anything special but i'm excited to converse with them as I've never had any of them in my town(s) before. They are: Apollo, Moe, Kid Cat, Queenie, and Felicity!

I have Mitzi, Pate, Rocco, Clay, and Teddy. My sister wanted in on the fun so she is playing too on my town.

One of my goals is to have the fish and bugs part of the museum completed by the time I'm finished playing.

Of course you can, and happy new year
 
Think I might join in on this as I've had an extra digital copy sitting on my 3DS for years now without ever using it.
 
Not much left to do today honestly. I made about 27k bells so I payed off my rent, that's a plus.
I planted like 4 trees but I do not know how my landscaping will take off from here so I will lay back with the trees until I have an axe.

If I get bored today I could log on and catch some fish, draw some patterns for my ground, or visit other towns' shops, but for right now, I think that concludes day one!!
