Mini Update:

? Shampoodle is still under construction.

If this thread were to be stickied, the other OYC thread should be stickied too.
those are some great villagers!!!
She certainly got great starting villagers! Pate is amusing. She was one of my starters too this time. At first I actually thought she was a boy. Here where I live, Pate is a boy's name. I was so confused when I met her at first! The second thing she said was something about practicing walking on hot lava which didn't make it any better.Ah shame well, I also have him in a holding town in case you ever want him.
Alright, here's my moms town info. Doesn't need to be added, just posting since I think I chose a good map for her to be honest. So much space! And all things are pushed into a certain spot so even more space!
These are her villagers (not bad, except for Pate the ungodly horrifying thing that plagued me in city folk LOL)
Wow, you've gotten so much done in such a short time! It feels like I'm falling behind everyone more and more every day, haha!Shampoodles in it's third day of construction, damn this is taking long, I had no idea! Nooks will be closed tomorrow for upgrades, which struck me as quite soon, but I've been ordering a lot of stuff the last couple of days, so maybe that's sped it along.
I've managed to continue getting a PWP everyday, the ones I can remember are scarecrow and flowerbed. I've been doing quite a few trades this week, just for normal stuff for my alt's houses which I've turned into PWPs (a campsite tent, a log cabin, and a health spa). Funnily enough I haven't been working on my own house except to upgrade it when I remember, so it just looks like rubbish at the moment! I'm glad I sold some tbt to make $$$, although when it runs out I probably won't sell any more. Catching bugs will help me work towards the silver and gold badges afterall
I was extremely lucky to adopt the beautiful Queenie today from a lovely TBTer. I can't remember the last time I've seen her up for adoption so I feel very lucky, and I can't wait to meet her when she moves in! I'm praying she plots somewhere good tomorrow (sooo tempted to plot-resetttttt) but tbh, as long as it's not hella-bad, she'll be a permanent resident of Taciturn. No-one has asked to move for a while, and Portia moved out on Tuesday. God I hope Hans is the next mover..I can't stand him, although I am being nice to him and I talk to him everyday (you know Hans, you could help your cause by requesting some decent PWPs!).
I can't think of anything else vaguely exciting that's happened, as after the first week or so, everything goes into 'normal' mode! Oh yeah I got my 6th jacob's ladder today, that's about it. I hope you guys are all still enjoying your towns! When our towns hit a month old, maybe we could all post a 'Month of <insert Town Name> in Pictures'. I'll probably choose a handful of my fave pics from my first month in Taciturn and post them up, I've got loads on my SD card but I'm so damn lazy I don't often upload them! Anyway, have a fab weekend all ^_^
Day 23 in Termina (BIG UPDATE!)
Okay so I tried to make a flag for my town. I'm a real noob in that kind of stuff but I thought I'd post my attempt anyway. Here's my first self-made town flag:

The shadowing is off but I guess it isn't that noticeable in-game. It'll do while I'm trying to figure out how to improve it.
Wow, you've gotten so much done in such a short time! It feels like I'm falling behind everyone more and more every day, haha!
One PWP a day sounds like a lot! I admire you for having the patience for that! How long does it approximately take for you to get a suggestion?
I like your idea of posting our favourite pictures when hitting one month! I'll definitely do that too!
Aaand lastly, congrats on getting Queenie!
You can still join! I just started 2 days ago. Just do it until the date you started next yearToo bad I missed this. I think it's a bit too late to join, so good luck everyone! I'm really enjoying all the ceremony pictures from Jan 1st!

Oh, and if the Master List is still going can you remove Rolf off the list?
Thanks, and I love how my OYC town is coming along. I'm really glad you like my paths, I really need to update my OYC dream town. Ha yeah, just a few villagers I want gone. Like Rolf for instance.Updated your villagers on the list ^_^ Sounds like things are going well in Termina! I like the path design you've laid down too. And POOR COLE! Suffering with a cold, and unloved by his Mayor..haha
And whats so tragic about that?My moms first move in is marshal -.-
I thought it would have taken much longer. Maybe I've read too many horror stories of people spending the whole day doing the diving trick. : D That's also why I haven't tried it yet. But thanks for clearing things up! Now I'm definitely going to do it. It speeds things up so much! I've only gotten a couple of PWPs so far. Only one of them was something I'm planning on using, haha.I think your town flag looks brilliant! The shadowing looks really good, you've done a great job ^_^
And thanks for the congrats, I'm so excited about Queenie moving in! As for the PWPs, sometimes I get lucky and a villager will ping when I'm not even trying, like when I'm wandering around looking for my daily fossils. That's happened about 4 times so far. Usually though, I do the diving trick. I fill my pockets with fruit, and then float in the water for 5 minutes getting stung by jellyfish, then I go find a villager to ping me. On average, it usually takes about half an hour, but once it took over 2 hours (and all I got was a caution sign, lol). I'm not a very patient person, haha, so what I do is leave my DS open while I wait in the water, and I get on with other things in real life. I just check in every 5 minutes to find a villager to ping me, and if it's not a PWP thing, I jump back in the water. If I haven't had one within the hour, I save and quit, then load up again and carry on. If you decide to give it a go, good luck! Hopefully you'll get some good ones
She doesn't like squirrels lmaoAnd whats so tragic about that?
