The one year challenge

[pocky]

I am now Mayor of my new town, Minisia! Will post pics now.
Info:
Yellow train station wooo
Brown TH with white borders(looks great!)
Circle Snow... was hoping for stars.
Villagers:Margie, Bob, Pippy, Axel and Del.
Fruit: Apples! got a perfect one first day

I started late and TT'd to catch up to the everyone else. I think that it's okay since it's just catching you up to everyone else Also those villagers are great! Love Bob, Axel, and Margie!

I actually went and made a Tumblr for the challenge. I actually made my mayor into a character to make things more interesting. I intend to mostly post in-character.

I can't guarantee that I'll actually maintain this blog for an extended period of time, but let's see where this goes.
I still can't believe that URL wasn't taken

Thats an amazing url! And I love what you've done so far! I already have a tumblr for ACNL, but I kinda wanna do a different one for my new town... (my ACNL tumblr is a sideblog so I cant follow people directly from it and my main blog contains a bad word so I don't wanna make any of the younger kids uncomfortable haha) AND ALSO I LIKE THE IDEA OF DOING IT AS A CHARACTER... yes. I think that I'll draw Satan and make him a blog.

Somebody should make a masterlist of all of the tumblrs/blogs!

Great Idea on the master list! I might do one in character too. I think it would be funny doing it from the Mayors point of view.

Thank you! I shamelessly took the pun from this thread because it made me giggle.
I also have a main blog (not AC related), but I have no original content on it and do have a total potty mouth which is why I'm not linking to it.

If you make a blog for Satan consider me follower #1. The dark prince's adventures in torturing his subjects within the confines of the game would make for the funnest blog.

Hahaha, thanks! You totally should, I'm already having fun picturing the game's antics from the point of view of my mentally unstable mayor.

I can start working on a master list if it makes things easier. I guess I'd include our TBT names, Tumblr URLs and maybe our friend codes?

 

[Hazel]

I really like the idea of making a character out of my mayor. Makes me wish I didn't name my mayor after me now :/ But I might still do the character diaries thing on my blog anyways

Oh I'll have to go follow you!

Yeah having friend codes on the masterlist is a good idea

Sounds cool! How do I make a url on tumblr? i am 14 and don't understand it >.< mock if you must

 

[Megan.]

I also made a tumblr for the oyc (here). ^_^

Spoiler: Macaron Update c;

Garden shop has now opened~
My 8th villager is Keaton. I'll let him go whenever he wants to, I don't mind him but his house is in an annoying place.
I finally paid off my bridge PWP with the help of selling beetles and I also paid for the campsite today. n_n
Other than that not much has happened today.

sign up for tumblr. your username will be your url, ex username is cxmputertrash, url will be cxmputertrash.tumblr.com
theres people (like me) who have custom domains. i use freedns.afraid.org, which is why i have two tumblrs with the computertrash.hacked.jp and hellomayor.hacked.jp urls.

I've been having fun reading everyone's updates. It's great that more people have made blogs for this challenge. I'm definitely going to follow everyone once I come up with a better URL for my own ACNL tumblr. I've already written updates of all the days so far but I won't post the URL just yet.

Spoiler: Pics from today

That sums it up pretty well. I'll make a longer update tomorrow.

By the way, some of us are already one week in! It feels like we started just yesterday. I hope everyone has had a great time so far!

 

[kittenrobotarmy]

If you know how to make your other pages appear on the main page (not in the little thing up in the corner) please tell me, that would be handy.

Fuchsia moved in today (in a terrible spot, mind you) and Tortimer visited today! I'll get the island tomorrow <3

I had to TT to catch up! Will do a week update now.

 

[Trickilicky]

Hey guysss! Loving all the updates, and I've book marked all the new blogs! If/when I make mine, I'll post mine up too and follow you all. I hope Toeto logs in soon and sees how well her challenge is doing! It would be so great if we could make a master list with everyone's blogs/town info/FCs etc. Perhaps Toeto could make a new thread if she has the time, or give permission for one of us to make another one with our details in the front page maybe? Just bouncing ideas around lol.

Spoiler: Taciturn

I'm so so lazy at getting pics from my SD card onto my Chromebook, but I'll try to do it tomorrow, I have been taking them every day anyway. Today I chopped down some trees and planned out the Summer Camp area of my town. I placed the camp site, after about three hours of deliberating! I also made two new alts: 'Camping' and 'LogCabin' to go in the camping area. My gardening shop opened up (hence the axe), and I bought some stuff from the shops. I also welcomed Lobo, I'm happy to have a wolf in my Summer Camp forest, he suits it well ^_^ Now I'm off to the island to bug hunt and perhaps do some diving for my museum. I'll have this coming weekend entirely to myself, so if anyone wants to play some island games or do other in-game things, feel free to PM/VM!

 

[Hyasynth]

So I've taken the liberty of actually drafting up that master list.

It would be so great if we could make a master list with everyone's blogs/town info/FCs etc.

On that note, Here's the first version of the OYC Master list!

I figured time zone would be a good thing to have so if anyone wants to visit or talk to anyone else, Person A will be sure that they aren't bugging Person B at some ungodly hour of the night. I also thought of adding availability hours, but that might get complicated and I don't want to force anyone to share their schedules if they don't want to. Do you guys think having an availability section is a good idea?

I added those whose URLs I found by scanning the thread, and used the friend codes you have listed on your profiles. I'll be adding those of you without URLs as well, but I wanted to start with the folks that do have one so they wouldn't disappear too far into the thread. If I missed you or have anything wrong, PM me! Also PM me with your time zone if you want that on the list.

This is a great idea!! Thank you so much for taking the time to do the Master List I think all the column details you've added are a good idea, especially the time-zone one (mine is UK GMT..+0?). Availability would be useful, but it could get a bit messy as many people might not have consistent 'online' times. Do you think it might be an idea to add a 'Town name' column? Sometimes I get a bit confused if there's more than one gate open when wifi-ing, and although we post our town names here, it might be good to have a reference in the list? Just my two cents though! The list is brill, have book marked it in what I have now named my 'OCY' folder

 

[Paperboy012305]

I don't know if I'll ever make a tumblr account for this (Unless this thread is dead, or Tumblr is the hot spot for the OYC) I'll just show my updates.

Spoiler: Update time!

My first time greeting Klaus, he's not a pretty bad Roman Bear.




The Garden Shop officially open.



My mayor with a Blue Pom-Pom hat on.​

That's all for today!

I think it would be a good idea to add people to the doc who have a Google account, just so we can help you edit. If more people join it might be more of a pain to handle it. I've got like 3 accounts (school email, personal email, one for Origin) so you can just PM me if you want to know what my email is.

That's what I figured, which is why I hesitated to add it. I know my availability will get complicated fast because of a schedule that changes every semester, and that's not even factoring in homework/errands/appointments and all that fun fun IRL stuff.

I like your idea of town names, and have already implemented it
I added the ones I remembered off the top of my head, and I'll be filling in town names as I see them. Might as well do mayor names while we're at it.

Good idea, it'll make things a lot easier.

If anybody else with a Google account wants in on this, PM me the email you want me to add.

Lolly will be moving in tomorrow. I've built my campsite and my first camper was Bluebear. Now just built a second bridge near my house, hehe. The island has been very profitable. Gonna pay off my 298,000 loan tonight with beetle hunting. Also got my fruit orchard up next to retail too. Hopefully none die TT___TT
