The one year challenge

[Hyasynth]

I've been out running errands downtown so I'm just now starting up the game, but I can already see that today will be a pretty eventful day.

Spoiler

• Propolis finally has a second bridge. Nice as my map is, it is in dire need of 3 bridges to be convenient.
• Peaches moved in. I don't hate her as much as I thought I would, but I can't say I like her either. I will gladly hand her off to the first person who wants her.
• Speaking of recent move-ins, I couldn't find Fuchsia at all yesterday. Finally found her today, and the first thing she does is try to sell me a Solemn Painting. I didn't take the bait.
• I currently have three of four snowpeople built. Going to build the Snowtyke today, so I'll have the complete family for all of one day. Poor Snowmam's on her last legs.
• BTW, today's Snowman number is 30. If you need 30, let me know and I'll let you in.
• I'll be paying the island a visit today once I've settled in.

Just an update of what's been going on in Florence! Haven't gotten my approval rating yet because I've been too busy to work towards that so!

Spoiler: What happened in Ea today?

The second bridge is very useful. I might move it a little once I'm able to build zen bridges. I'm not sure yet.

Met Tex today. Hopefully he'll turn out nice!

I went to the island and played Easy Hammer Tours. I'm looking forward to go to tours that'll make me more medals. I used the medals to buy a cabana lamp from the Island Shop. I went to the island again later and caught some beetles. I only made some 400,000 Bells but I figured I won't need more just yet. Paid the 98,000 Bells loan so my house will expand again tomorrow! I wouldn't have wanted to expand the first floor to maximum, but oh well. I'm not sure which rooms I want yet as I'm not going to fully expand my house.

I almost forgot! Look! I got my first PWP suggestion today! I'm definitely building the stone tablet at some point. I just need to do some planning first. I hope Croque will continue giving me lots of suggestions!
View attachment 79773
Here's a better picture of my map. I want to make my town a forest-y nature town with some zen parts. I don't have plans for PWP placements yet. Except that the Cafe will be built next to Town Hall. I might make a camping area to the narrow strip of land below the bridge. Then it wouldn't be in the way. But on the other hand, that'd be a great place for a park... Do you have any suggestions on where I should place the campsite area? Any other thoughts about my map would be appreciated, too.

whoa! so much progress, grats on your first request, I love your map! Why not have the park and campsite in the same area? Like maybe the park leads to some wooded area where the camp is?

Hi guys, hope you're have a good day so far. Back at work tomorrow so things are getting busier, but I did enjoy catching up on all your updates! I'm glad everyone is enjoying how things are going in your new towns so far A lot of us will have their 8th villager plot tomorrow, I wonder who we'll get? I'm waiting on a cranky now, there are loads of crankies I like so hopefully I'll get someone decent! Which personality are you all missing from your town?

Spoiler: Taciturn update

Today in Taciturn I went to the island and got 'gold' on all the easy tours available, then I caught a ton of bugs, fish and sea creatures. I even got my first badge because of it: the bronze sea creature catalog badge! I've decided to try and catch all the January stuff for my museum, so I can spend the rest of this month mapping out my town and placing PWPs and such. I've already decided on the four main 'attractions' of my town: a summer camp, a spa, a park, and a beach hut cafe area. All good in theory but I need to choose where to develop these ideas. I don't have much spare time to do that properly until this weekend when I'll have the house to myself for a couple days (yey). I also paid off a second suspension bridge which that will be built tomorrow, and have arranged for the original bridge to be knocked down. Hans moved in, he's okay I guess. Creepy and sort of intimidating, but I really like smugs, so he's got that going for him at least. Looking forward to seeing which cranky I get tomorrow!!!

I finally got my approval rating up to 100% last night, I should have the permit today and I've got a little less than what I need to completely pay off my final loan so I can start upgrading. Haven't paid a dime yet, since I've been on too late to catch Nook open.

 

[cIementine]

I found my dream map with 3 dream villagers! Fang, Poppy, and Beau. Only downside is pears, but the placement of everything is just so perfect! It's better than my last one, plus I got Beau again. I was starting to think I'd never replace Cape May!
This new town is called Creenaye though ;u;

 

[Hazel]

I'm missing a peppy villager, I've my fingers crossed for Ruby or Sprinkle!

Everlong update:

[Paperboy012305]

I'm missing a Smug. If I get Marshal or Eugene i'll be SHOCKED!

Spoiler: Other than that here's what happened in Termina today!

My first chat with Alice. Shes so nice to have!


My first hybrids ever in Termina!

My Snowmam is gone! But since I can catch beetles at the island, its not a problem.

I did unlock the island yesterday but I didn't go, I forgot to. I got a chance today! Lets see what happened there.


This is probably something resetti would say.


What do you know! Flip Flops in my island, I was hoping they would be there.


Here I am in them! Its not bad, but it is for winter though.

That's all for today! Let me know what you think.

Spoiler: hell update

Katt moved in! I know that she looks stupid, but I don't know... I kinda dig her look. And her introduction made me laugh! I think I'll keep her as a permanent resident, meaning that I already got 4 of my 10 Dreamies (Tutu, Blanche, Zucker, and Katt.)


I also went to my first PWP ceremony! For a suspension bridge I decided that I wanted to use this style for all of my bridges, so I'll be tearing down the cobblestone bridge that came with the town and rebuilding it tomorrow:


Might not be such a good idea to do this so early on considering that bridges are so expensive, but whatever. I wanna get this out of the way as soon as I can.


I also played some island games until I had enough medals for Club Tortimer. There is also a green wetsuit in my Island Shop. I don't want it because my favorite one is the stripped one. But... it's there if any of you guys want to buy it!

Now I'm just waiting for it to be night time so I can catch some beetles GOTTA PAY DA BILLS

I'm also in the process of revamping my cycling town! I'll let you guys know when I got the thread up and running again (figured a lot of you still need your dreamies)

Ooh! Barold is moving on the 7th, so i'll have space then. I'll be on the lurkout when its open. (See what I did there?)

 

[Noctis]

Ah I regret not coming here sooner. it's really nice to see a lot doing this and seeing how everyone is progressing. If I had another copy I would had definitely done this.

 

[Punchyleaf]

Shep is moving in tomorrow, Apple and Punchy are all moved in and now I'm on my way to the Island. Nooklings has been disappointing with items

 

[Paperboy012305]

Its 7pm where I am. Better start catching beetles!

 

[X2k5a7y]

Bangle is moving in tomorrow! ^-^
I named the Mayor Shiloh, and my town name is Hysteria, by the way.
I forgot to mention that.

 

[pocky]

Darn, 8PM and I forgot all about the beetles! Was riding my bike for an hour and now I gotta shower >__< Then dinner

Spoiler: Olympus updates

Last night I got to meet Phineas and I got my first badge.

Paid off my home loan and straight away went to get my house upgraded again.

I finally got to meet Buck. He seems okay but his eyebrows are kind of distracting..

Red decided to set up shop and I bought a scary painting since it was the only thing that was real.

The Early Bird ordinance went up today which is great because now I wont have to wait hours for all of the shops to open.

Butch decided to sell some lucky clovers, which wasn't something I was aware villagers could do.

Did the ceremony for the campsite and I'm excited to see who'll be there tommorrow, I'm hoping for some one cool so I can get another villager. Though I'll probably end up inviting whoever appears even if I don't like them all too well..

Butch also came to visit me and decided to comment on how there's only 7 items in my room.. it's not my fault that nooklings hasn't been selling anything decent

 

[RoseNitemare]

Spoiler: Lindor update!

First PWP! Not sure if I'm gonna use it though.

Got the bridge done today. Makes getting to the dock MUCH easier.

Sold a bunch of beetles after donating a bunch to the museum.

Got my 200k loan paid off. Unfortunately, Nook's Homes closed before I could tell him and get the next upgrade. Ah well.
Blog post: Here

Glad to have access to the island. It'll be much easier to get bells now.

That's definitely something to think of! Thank you for the idea!
By the way, I like how you named your town and mayor. The screenshots of your new villagers being really excited about living in Hell are just so amusing.

Some morning news from my town. Hybrids seem to be spawning veery seldom in Ea. I still have only 3 and no new ones today. Also, Hamlet will move in tomorrow. His placement is just glorious. Guess whether he decided to move right in front of my new bridge, only two spaces away from it. So yay again. It's kind of funny, though.
The gardening store is good news! I'm excited to see how long it'll take to construct it.

 

[Eline]

I love reading this thread c: I didn't do it though, because I restarted in December and I don't have a second copy. BUT I LOVE THIS.
