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

Bah. I need to stop getting distracted ( curse you, Stardew Valley for being such a great, and addictive, game) and play in my town already! Will try to do so later today. Problem is...I can't play in my town first thing when I'm ready to play something because some of my villagers will still be asleep then ( WHY must uchis sleep in til 11 am???). So...I start out playing Stardew Valley instead and wind up forgetting to play New Leaf. Bleargh.

Eating lunch atm...but....I will boot up my NL town as soon as I'm done. I really will!

tbh I want to get back in but victoria moved in front of my house ruining my bushes like a month ago.
Tbh i just got back in yesterday, not looking good.
Anyone wanna meet up for a celebratery reunion and go to the island?

 

[Mothership]

Booted up Moonvale today for the first time in about 3 weeks. Had a bad case of bedhead, a few weeds and a lot of clovers ( no four leaf, tho....boo). Thank goodness for the Beautiful Town Ordinance! My villagers were happy to see me again Soleil tried to move, but I'm never letting that pudgy little cutie pie leave!

I need a new peppy to replace Puddles, but can't decide on who I want to get. I dislike most peppies, but I still want one in my town. Hmmmmmmmm.

Because nothing was going on, (Until now at least) I messed up my town purposely to a supply town for myself. I'm alright not being able to join anymore. So take me out of the challenge op.

 

[X2k5a7y]

Pretty sure, I asked to be removed from this. If I didn't then I need to be, but congrats to everyone who's lasted this long

 

[pocky]

Aww. I wish I had seen this sooner. I participated in the 2015 challenge and managed to last the whole year (though I started cheating as soon as my year was up) Would have loved to do one for 2016. I guess I do technically have a non-tt, non-cheating town ATM, but I didn't start it until April so it won't count for this ;-;

Sadly, I'm going to have to officially drop out.

Due to real-life stuff (including my bird dying) I deleted my town and took a hiatus, and I just restarted a few weeks ago. I didn't bring it up here, because the thread was pretty inactive... anyway, good luck to those of you who are carrying on with the challenge.

 

[SensaiGallade]

Sad to see people drop out but sometimes it can't be helped

At the end of the month we should all compare our towns at the beginning of the year to half a year in! That would be cool!

 

[GirlPolarBear]

I would love to join this, it's a shame you have to start at the beginning of the year.

 

[Mothership]

I'm still chugging along...I play my town at least once a week. I really should get back to playing in it every day. Hopefully I'll manage to do that someday.

 

[Mothership]

Too quiet in here.

I finally decided on Rosie as my new peppy. I adopted her yesterday and was prepared for a tedious session of plotting her today, but she went into a decent spot on the first try. Such a good kitty

Gracie showed up for her third visit! Only need one more!

Frank wanted new furniture, so I gave him a Gyroid. He gave me a toilet......ewwww.

 

[Mothership]

Wow. Don't know whether to continue posting here. I kinda feel like I'm just talking to myself.

Anyways...I'm trying to play this town more often so I hopefully can finally get Gracie's Fashion Checks completed.

 

[SensaiGallade]

Half a year in people! We need to check out everyone's towns!

Here are beginning of the year photo's:









Check out my DA to see the change! Codes in my sig!

 

[Capeet]

I'm playing again! I left my town in a bit of a messy state when I stopped playing and it's gotten even messier while I was gone, so I've been tidying it up. I even got the reset bug but managed to fight it off! I already feel like I'm becoming more attached to Journey again. After I finish the cleanup, I'll finally be doing some much-needed landscaping.

 

[Mothership]

Whee! Gracie appeared for the fourth time today! I managed to scrape together enough Flashy stuff to pass her Check....whew.

I did build my Dream Suite a few weeks ago, but I keep forgetting to go in it.

 

[Capeet]

Congrats Mothership! I can't believe you're getting the Emporium already! Do you know if you've already spent 100k (?) Bells in TIY? I'll have to do a lot more buying before Gracie's even going to start appearing in my town, lol. I guess I shouldn't have bought so much furniture from the forums at the beginning of the challenge because now there's nothing new in TIY that I need or feel like buying.

 

[Mothership]

@ Cosmic Kid : Ty! I dunno how much I've spent in TIY, but I don't think Gracie will show up until you have spent at least that much. I did go in there and buy everything whether I needed/wanted it or not every day from the time TIY first opened until Gracie came for her first Fashion Check....so maybe you can do that, too.

 

[Capeet]

Yeah, that's what I should do as well. I'll just start buying everything I don't already have, so that should speed things up!

As for other things... Nothing noteworthy has happened, except that I forgot that a new villager was about to move in to my town. So today I found Midge's plot in a really bad spot! She's blocking my most important path. But hey, somehow I'm not even annoyed by it! So it's cool. For now!

 

[Capeet]

Drat, I had just finished writing my message when I refreshed the page... Why?? Well here goes again!

Clay is ill and I hope he gets better soon. He looks so miserable wandering around his room shivering!

I got a tenth move-in today. It seems like I picked up Benedict from someone's void. Good thing is that he plotted well and didn't crush anything. There's a lot of stuff lying around my town right now.

I've been working on my town too. I demolished one of my yellow benches and today I will replace it with a metal bench. I have some good PWPs unlocked so I should start building!

 

[RosieThePeppyCat]

Just checked on my town today. It's been so long XD
I kinda forgot about it so I'm really behind. I'll be working on it this summer though.
