• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

What Did You Accomplish In Your Town Today?

I finally just bought a pair too, I think we both got it from Elephantmarshmallow lol. Being a member of this forum or just an AC community in general really helps a LOT, and would you make you more interested to play.

Yeah we both did get it from elephantmarshmallow! So far I have bred a couple more from the ones I bought. I'm extremely happy with the purchase! Working on getting more blue violets too because they are nice looking. I have been collecting a lot of bushes for some strange reason and I plan to make my town real nice with the bushes around my paths but I can't decide what bushes to plant and where to plant them. That's one of my biggest struggles is indecisiveness when placing objects espescially with bushes because there are so many types and colors. Hopefully I will be able to decide and place them soon, and I hope they look great!
 
Here's what I accomplished in my town today:

  • What able to do enough fortunes get Katrina's place to be requested in my town.
  • Requested Katrina's place to be built and paid the all the bells to get it built.
  • Katrina's place is now built and can be visited daily.
  • Upgraded some of the rooms in my second character's (Wally) house.
  • Decorated a lot in my second character's house.
    • His house is going to be a medical clinic.
  • Took out majority of the stuff from my mayor character's (Margie) regular storage.
  • Decorated a little bit in my mayor's house.
  • Worked part time in Brewster's Cafe for both characters.
  • Cleared out some of the weeds in my town since I haven't been plucking them out in a while.
  • Got some new bugs and donated them to my museum.
  • Decorated a bit in Exhibit Room 1. It is coming along very nicely.
  • Got some badges for both my characters.
  • Did some tasks for both characters to get Meow coupons.

I'm the same way! I've been hoarding bushes from the island, but never planted them until I get more. I want my decisions to be final. It's a hassle to replan.
I got the blue violets too for Marshal's house.

What I accomplished today?
Lighthouse finally built
And Static suggested the Zen Garden!

I feel so happy when they suggest PWP I actually want. Those signs they used to suggest are so useless. Shari please come through and suggest the picnic blanket be useful for once :(
 
Nothing major today so far but I caught a darner dragonfly and a giant snakehead. :) Gladys also came for a visit.
 
I finally achieved perfect town achievement for 15 days! My character and side character now both have the golden watering can, which is absolutely fantastic compared to the normal watering can, which I previously used.

Also, I finally got a ping for one of my non-dreamies (Phil) to move out! I like him, but I like a lot of other villagers more. Now I can have room for Cherry!

Ugh, I hate those signs! I get so excited when I get pinged but then I get a dumb caution sign that I will never build.

Custom design sign is the only sign I can see myself using. And even that I can only see myself building when I'm finish with PWPs to lead the way for visitors.

It's safe to say PWPs are even more difficult to get than rare items or rare flowers as you can't trade them with tbt lol.

I swear if Shari requested that Scarecrow before Picnic, Wisteria Trellis, or Windmill she's GOING.
 
I am finally building up a nice little stash of blue roses to decorate with, very excited to see the new growth every day when I step outside my door. I am debating on whether or not to try and cover my town in patterns to block villagers from moving anywhere but into certain spaces that I decide, but I don't want to limit my flower growing space by covering everything. I would be missing out on a huge amount of ground space and growth opportunity by putting designs everywhere. Also, if i just place the designs enough to limit where villagers can move but not place them on every tile, it looks horrid. I have some designs placed outside every 4 squares or so in my hybrid flower patches because I don't want them mowed down by a villager but it really is horrible to look at. I wish there was a design that looked exactly like the grass does in ACNL so when i place it down it will just look like there is nothing on the ground (or at least so similar that at a glance you cant tell). So far I haven't found any design that fits what I am looking for. Maybe the answer is to just have 2 towns, one I try to make as nice as possible (with designs placed everywhere and nice paths etc). And one that I just have flowers everywhere and constantly growing and breeding and "supplying" for the main town.

I see people that have more than one town (sometimes a ton of towns) and I am curious as to what the method is to having more than one town? Do these people just have multiple cartridges or is there a different way that I am completely missing?

Anyone's thoughts on the matter are greatly appreciated :) I enjoy all the feedback :)
 
Things that I've done in my town today:

  • Finally got Mint to leave my town since her house essentially was blocking two villager house spaces.
    • Though... I am expecting a new villager (Ribbot) to come over to move into my town.
  • Did more decorating to my second character's (Wally) place. And... It seems like am getting closer and closer to finishing.
  • Fully upgraded Wally's house and paid all the loans needed.
  • Did some refurbishing of furniture at Re-Tail.
  • Decorated Exhibit Room 3 a bit and probably need to decorate a bit more.
  • Rearranged and decorated one room of my mayor character's (Margie) place.
  • Added some paths to where Mint use to live, so the new villager will move into the right spot almost immediately when plot-resetting.

day 5

didn?t really do anything today apart from a couple of trades as i was busy c:
 
Can I post what I did NOT accomplish?

I wasn’t completely aware that it was Peanut’s birthday today, I feel so bad I entered her house to check if she displayed the blue bench I re-gifted her and suddenly, she’s celebrating her birthday with Lyman. How did I NOT receive the letter that she’s celebrating soon? She’s one of my faves and I didn’t even prepare a present. I had to RUN home and to Timmy’s to see what I can get. I had gifts wrapped & ready in every other birthdays just recently (there’s too much tbh May 31 Marcie, June 1 Keaton, later June 14 Pippy. so much birthdays what to heck)

I do something like this. Around different parts in my town I don?t want villagers to move, or planning to put PWP. I don?t put too much flowers knowing I?ll remove them anyway.

That's the nicest I have seen, I like your idea. I might have to create a new character just for paths. I think I am going to do some more research on the size of space an animal requires in order to move in a location and then just use a nice design, like those that you have, and use them to block off areas until I put PWP's in that spot. I will try to block villagers housing space with mostly PWP's and less designs on the ground. I will have to look though my town and try and come up with a good spot, or spots, for my villagers to live and plan out everything about my town before I go forward with my designs and "neighborhood" placements.
 
All the players completed their fishing collections in my casual town. One of those players also completed their diving collection for the museum.
Player 2 found 2 more scorpions last night. She needs a tarantula and pond skater to finish her summer collection.
 
Here's what I got done in my town for today:

  • Changing my second character's (Wally) house exterior.
  • Went to Club LOL with Wally to gain more emotions.
  • Did a small amount of tasks to gain some Meow coupons.
  • Did a bit of landscaping in my town.
  • Finally having Tangy to suggest moving out of my town.
    • Note: I needed her to leave my town really badly due to the fact her house was blocking two potential house spaces for new villagers that I wanted to have in the future. Sorry, Tangy. But... You had to go. I need the house spacing. :T
  • Watered my blue hybrid violets and purple hybrid pansies.

day 6

again didn't do much, was busy but hopefully tomorrow (or today because i'm writing this late) will be more productive than the last couple of days lol
 
Found a nice surprise PWP Topiary on the list in my casual town. The town got it's town permit to build PWP in July.
I remember having a visiting player pull weeds in one of my spare towns last year and than finding out it was Weeding Day 2 days later. Leif said there were no weeds but didn't mention the PWP Topiary. Guess the PWP Topiary went on the list when it was a Spare Town at the time.

Added the Topiary.
 
I caught a tarantula today. :D I had a feeling that that specific area would be a particularly spidery area since I had seen a few running around there.
