The one year challenge

[Xita]

Day 3

Spoiler

Got barely anything done today lol. Wednesdays are just gonna be like that unfortunately.

The good news is that I finally got my letter back from Bam, and he's even using the manhole cover I gave him! I took a gamble that it would fit in with all the other stuff in his room, and it actually does fit in pretty well.

Then he asks for more furniture right afterwards taking advantage of my generosity..

Also Mira moved in today. I actually had her in one of my previous towns and I liked her, so I'm not too fussed that she's back.

what do you guys think of path characters? yknow? ones you mainly use to set down paths? I cant decide if I want to do that. Including my flag (which im also using as a medalion inlet on some of my tile areas) ive used all but two design spaces...

I've made some separate characters randomly to practice making paths, but I never save them. I don't have any place for their houses that wouldn't just be in the way.

the town flag can be deleted from your pattern inventory and it won't disappear as the flag. it'll still be there. so that space can be used for a different pattern ^^

i'm personally going for dirt paths in my OYC town, so i won't be needing extra characters, but i think it's fine if you have a lot of patterns you want to put down. especially if they're just taking up space and being annoying for your mayor :/
the only problem might be that another character's house will take up more room in your town

I GOT PECK'S PIC!

wooooo <3

really excited about this because it usually takes me a couple months to get a villager pic. this time it was less than three weeks?? new record for me

Wow, congrats! How did you manage that? Just yesterday I was thinking that it'll take forever to get villager pictures again. You gave back my hope, haha. I have to be nicer to my neighbors from now on.

It'll be interesting to see when everyone gets their first villager pics.

I've been sending all my villagers a letter pretty much every day. Already have the silver letter badge and should have the gold one soon xD
Turns out it raises friendship a lot! I also give them perfect fruit when they ask for a fruit.

I was expecting it to take at least a month though so it was definitely a nice surprise c:

I pretty much never send the villagers letters :c

I'm happy with continuing this thread the 4 rules actually help me, my other town is gone so i can never break the rule now of trading from old town lol but i always get tempting to reset for the newness and once i time travel i feel the guilt and its not as fun like i've earned it so this challenge gives me the strength and something to hold onto to say it'll be awesome when i get there. I need to post my update pics!

I've made a tumblr blog specifically for this challenge. Perhaps at one point I could upload some pictures that EVERYONE has uploaded and stamp it "This is us 2015 One Year Challenge" and put up a picture everyone is proud of. I'm actually quite keen with this idea ^_^ Everyone should post a current screenshot of their town they want me to make into one big montage picture and i'll combine then and upload it ^_^

PS My tumblr link is in my sig. Make it a screenshot of something you're proud of!

Aww what a lovely idea! Hopefully many people here will upload a pic of something they are proud of! It would be nice to see that kind of compilation from time to time.
I'll have to look through my screencaps to see if I can find anything I'm proud of. But I doubt that I'll find anything too special yet, haha. I haven't made much progress so far. But yeah, I really like your idea and am looking forward to seeing what everyone is going to upload!

Also, I'll start following you and everyone else once I get my own tumblr ready to go.

Haha you've been very committed in letter writing! You might have good chances of getting more pics soon.
Thanks - I'll try it out too!

I just found a new plot. I'm surprised because I didn't expect anyone to move in so soon. Charlise moved out on the 20th and I find that it usually takes a couple of days longer than this for anyone to move in. Well, anyway. My new villager will be Twiggy. Her placement isn't good but on the other hand, it isn't in the way either, at least for now. I'm generally not very fond of peppy villagers and now I have two of them.

I love the idea! But I don't have anything I'm proud of just yet! >.< I haven't been making as much progress as some people on the thread because of college and stuff but yeah I'll defo post I pic when I actually have done something worth being proud of!

A short update from today.



Finding Twiggy's plot and getting my third badge are the only "important" things that happened. And this was today's emotion. It's one of my favourites!

I got a hybrid red rose, so that's one step toward a blue rose at least.
I keep forgetting to do the emotions from Club LOL, though. It's snowing in my town today.

Thanks c:

Quick question, how many villagers do you have?
