What Did You Accomplish In Your Town Today?

  • spoke to my villagers - visited Fang's house and purchased his Minimalist Lamp
  • returned a lost item to Vivian - received a Robo Dresser
  • Lolly spoke about moving later in the month but I got her to change her mind
  • Portia asked for something for her house so I gave her a Plum Bonsai - received a Ball Catcher
  • shook trees - caught 4 bees, collected bells and a Science Table
  • hit rocks - collected bells and a gold nugget
  • dug up a squat dingloid, a mini strumboid and a mini drilloid
  • dug up the 4 fossils and had them assessed/sold
  • sold fruit and seashells
  • visited Redd but didn't purchase anything from him today as he didn't have anything I needed
  • purchased a Store Shelf from Harvey
  • purchased a Classic Door from Nook's Homes
  • purchased a yellow lily bag and white pansy bag from T.I.Y
  • planted the flowers
  • scanned Caroline into town and asked for a gift - received a Raven Pole
 
- Not only did Apollo choose to stay, but he even visited my house for the first time today.

- He asked me for a large piece of furniture. I brought him some furnitures, but they were always too small. After doing some research online I found out that it meant a four square piece of furniture. I gave him my blue table and ordered another one for myself from the catalogue. I got a pink velvet stool for my "trouble". I'm not interested in that at the moment, so I sold it at the Re-tail store for a couple more bells. If I change my mind at some point, I can still order one from the catalogue.

- I saw Katrina's tent in my town and got my second fortune (I've heard you need 20 for her to set shop in your town permanently).

She couldn't be any more vague. What did you expect from a fortune tellers? Most of the are charlatans. :rolleyes:

She said, "An empty lost-and-found box in a police station. The officer has nothing to do but kill time. From this place I can see the signs. Oh yes, I can. I see disaster upon your items. Pants. This item will be the key to narrowly avoiding impending disaster. Since you are already wearing a lucky item now, I think you will be fine today. I hope this helps you and yours avoid a great tragedy. And remember that bad times are just times that are bad."

Okay, let's break that down.

An empty lost-and-found box in a police station.

(Sarcastic) Yeah, that's not vague at all is it? What about that lost-and-found box? I guess it would kill her to be more specific (no one will catch me alive going to a fortune teller in my world, also people who make you pay them to tell you what disasterc might come you way definitely are charlatans, people who really do have the gift will never make people pay for that, they will just warn them out of empathy and compassion, they will not charge people for that or try to financially explot people like all those charlatans do out there, my sister and I have the gift, we have premonitory or prophetic dreams, and we don't make people pay us to tell them about the potential dangers and disasters that they and their families might face, we warn them out of empathy and compassion because it's the right and humane thing to do).

Also, if a cop has nothing to do but kill time, maybe he shouldn't be a cop. That means he's paid to do nothing. Maybe I would have built the police station at some point because I've heard that you can get interesting items that were not claimed, but someone being paid when he gets nothing done would probably bring shame to my town, so maybe it's not such a good idea after all.

"From this place I can see the signs. Oh yes, I can."

What in the freaking world is she talking about? From where. The weird place we're standing in when she read my fortune with the freaking "star matrix" thingamajigger? Or is she talking about what she sees in the police station? See, you can't get any more vague.

"Pants. This item will be the key to narrowly avoiding impending disaster."

First off all, "pants" is way too vague. What pants? There are many pants in this "game". That doesn't tell me anything. All that tells me is that a silly cryptic chick is trying to troll me.

"Since you are already wearing a lucky item now, I think you will be fine for today"

She must be talking about my "Good fortune clothes" I bought at the Able sisters'. I only bought it because it looks cool and it goes well with my Relay shorts, red "bandana", dark blue "Sporty shades" and Orange sandals. Red and blue with a little touch of orange.

http://moridb.com/items/hats/bandana

http://moridb.com/items/accessories/sporty-shades

You should have your character wear those things together and see how cool it looks.

"I hope this helps you and yours avoid a great tragedy."

Cryptic and vague gibberish doesn't help people avoid great tragedies.

"And remember that bad times are just times that are bad."

(Sarcastic) You don't say!?

She's getting on my nerves. I hate how this "game" force this belief in "good luck" and "bad luck" on people and this whole Feng shui nonsense. I never do Feng shui. And I can do with a bit of so-called "bad luck" without losing my damn mind. Also as the saying in one of the fortune cookies I bought (for the prizes) said the day I had "bad luck" and kept tripping over my own feet during Summer Solstice Day whenever I ran, "Those who slip are often just given a chance to appreciate the ground." It alld epends on perspectives. Is the glass half full or half empty? Also, if people accepted the fact that the bad things that happen to them in life are either the consequences of their own actions or the negative impact of someone else's actions, then they wouldn't believe in this "good luck" and "bad luck" nonsense. Belief in "Good luck" and "bad luck" is just an excuse for people not to hold themselves and each other accountable and not take responsibility for one's actions.

- I've heard someone (in a video) say today that you can unlock the touch play design style from HHD in ACNL. I wish I knew how to do that. But I do know that HHD save data let you unlock 20 giant items in ACNL. I would have to do more research online to find out how to unlock this stuff in ACNL. I've been so busy with ACNL that I barely just got started on HHD I just designed/decorated the first room yesterday and the saved, that's it. It's cool because my character in HHD has the same face/eyes, eye color, hair color as my character in ACNL. Or at least, my ACNL character will have that eye color and hair color once I have unlocked Shampoodle in ACNL, and in order to unlock Shampoodle I have to spend 10 000 bells and it can be split between Able sisters and Kick. It shouldn't be long. My character will have brown eyes because that's my natural eye color (they should let you select your eye color at the very least right from the beginning of ACNL) and she will also have purple hair because purple is my favorite color and I had purple hair myself in my world a few years back, I enjoyed that immensely. In HHD they allow you to choose your eye color and hair color and skin tone from the very beginning, you don't have to unlock any of it. In ACNL they make you work like "hell" to even unlock this, you have to unlock Kick and then you can unlock Shampoodle and you have to spend like over 20 000 bells to change your eye color and hair color.

- The T&T Mart still isn't selling any kind of trash bin or trash can. This is frustrating. I only have like six pieces of trash in my storage, but that's six slots I could use for something else, and ACNL is the only AC "game" that makes you pay that freaking disposal fee, of 10 bells per piece of trash. My kingdom for a freaking trash bin, so I can dispose of the trash for free without doing the garbage can PWP and having to worry about offsetting or balancing it with better projects to regain the lost approval points.

- I got tons of money from selling stags, beetles and sharks in the Re-tail store. I can have the first room of my second floor in my house built (it costs 298 000 bells) and I will still be left with around 300 000 bells. So I can cover the costs for at least two PWPs and still be left with money to buy clothes, shoes or furnitures and even save a big enough amount for later.

But still...

Tom's like: Your house would be more comfy with a second floor. A smallish loan of 290 000 bells would be equired of course. Hm?

WTH!? Smallish!? You call that, "smallish" you freaking Wall Street capitalist crook shark!?

Look at these prices:

https://animalcrossingworld.com/2013/02/house-expansions-in-animal-crossing-new-leaf/

The some of those rooms cost like 600 000 bells. This is insanely expensive! Also it doesn't make any sense! Why would expanding 6x6 second floor to 8x8 cost more money than the additional rooms?

And why do we go along with this... every... single.. time!? What if the government secretly hired Nintendo to create this "game" in such a way that it's designed to brainwash people into or desensitize people to late stage capitalism and this corrupt system we have at the moment which conveniently is socialism for the rich and late stage capitalism and mass poverty for everyone else? Heck the U.S.A is a good example of that, it's one of the richest countries in the world, yet they have food lines, capitalist bread lines, countless people dying because they can't afford health care, and oligarch heiresses like Ivanka Trump who richsplain to the poor and the workers who fight for a fairer wage, and everyone knows now that the U.S.A is a corporatocracy. They also wanted to evict people from their homes during a pandemic and cut electricity and water and even though there are laws in place, sometimes they still manage to throw people out on the street or deprive them of heating, electricity or running water. I kid you not. I kid you not, no compassion and no empathy and a whole lot of reverse Robin Hood. And a lot of people go along with this corrupt rotten system that's rigged in favor of the rich and against the poor and the worker, this corrupt and rotten system that's all about socialism for the rich and late stage capitalism and mass poverty for everybody else (the middle class no longer exist, we only have the rich class and the poor class), yes a lot of people go along with this system every single day and think the U.S.A is "the next best thing since slice bread" and Japan which is where the "game" supposedly originally came from must also have a corrupt system that's rigged in favor of the rich and against the poor and the workers and they probably want to desensitize people to income inequality and socialism only for the rich and the corporatocracy. Sometimes this AC "game" scares me, because people who play this "game", myself included, seem to sometimes act like freaking zombies. Gotta go start my second floor. No, I gotta go get some fresh air and do some exercise. Maybe later. 😰

Edit:

- I bought a Cabana table, a Cat tower, and crayons from R.V Blanca. I would have prefered pastels over crayons but I guess I'll have to settle for crayons because there's no pastels in this "game". The crayons will go well with the Painting set and Sketch book I will buy as soon as I see them in a store. I love art and I want art material in my bedroom. Along with a violin because I love violin music too. I wanted to buy the Daisy shirt but the "game" wouldn't let me. I got this message: "You can order from a camper up to three times per day. However, unsent items may count against your total." So you can only buy three Meow coupon items a day? Is that why they wouldn't let me order a fourth one? Darn it, I wanted that shirt. Normally I'm not a huge fan of the color pink, but somehow I like the Paw Tee and the Daisy Tee. I haven't seen Blanca before and it's been 2 weeks since I started the "game". I hope I get another opportunity to get the Daisy shirt. But the Able sisters only sell it during the Spring season. I hope Blanca shows up again so I won't have to wait until next Spring season.

http://moridb.com/items/tops/paw-tee

http://moridb.com/items/tops/daisy-tee

- I attended the ceremony for the campsite. Right after the ceremony, Apollo gave me a Robo-chair and a Gold stereo. I don't like the Robot set so I sold the chair to Victoria for 400 bells. I kept the Gold Stereo. One of my best friends, Aurora, wanted to trade for it, but I declined. Bur if I get my hands on the CD player one day I might drop the Gold stereo in the mail for her, we'll see when we get there. Now that I've said yes to Club LOL and gathered all the signature and I have a Gold Stereo I will be able to downlown K.K songs. Every Sunday if I remember correctly. According to the informations I found online, "Club LOL takes over 5 days to build. It'll take anywhere between 4 and 8 days to open. Club LOL won't have a blue tent over it like other buildings on Main Street while being constructed."

If it doesn't have a blue tent and construction sounds like the building on Main Street while being constructed, how will we know we didn't messed it up, that we really successfully unlocked it? Shrunk said it might take some time, didn't say how much. How do I know this project or the building is progressing if there is no sign that it is?

I just hope this doesn't happen to me (CLUB LOL seems buggy at times and some people say that their club LOL was never built no matter how long they waited):

https://www.neoseeker.com/forums/50570/t1874957-new-leaf-club-lol-dr-shrunk-missing/

I've never time travelled though, not yet and for now I don't see the necessity for me to do it.

But what makes me worried and annoyed is I'm pretty sure I talked to Blather almost everyday these past two weeks, donated 50 items to my museum with at least one ine ach of the four category, so why hasn't the Roost Café PWP been unlocked? Maybe two or three more days of talking to him? After all, I might have missed a day or two. I hope it won't be long now.

- I will put every painting in my museum if I can, but I want duplicates of these so I can have them in my bedroom at my house as well in addition to my museum:

- Perfect Painting (based on "Apples and oranges" by Paul Cézanne)

- Flowery Painting (based on "sunflower" by Vincent Gogh)

According to online guides, both of those paintings are always "genuine" and never "fake" in NL. And I love paintings with fruit and flowers. In ACNL, the paintings you have are placed on an easel or on the wall. Both the easel option and the wall option are interesting. I'm not sure yet which one I'm going to choose.

This might be useful to all of us:

https://www.metabomb.net/animal-cro...ry-guide-how-to-tell-which-paintings-are-fake

- Everything is unlocking now. I got the Nookling Junction to updrage to T&T Mart, I got the Kick store, and soon I'll get Club LOL and Roost Café. I have to spend 10 000 bells to get Shampoodle constructed, it can be split between Able sisters and Kick from what I've read online. And now I'm going to get started on the Fire hydrant PWP. If I pay 32 600 for the Fire hydrant PWP, I'm still let with 569 537 bells. And if I pay 298 000 bells to get the first room of the second floor built, I'm still left with 271 535 bells. The stags, beetles and sharks you get on the island land you a ton of bells when sold in the Re-tail shop (I got between 84 000 and 92 000 bells for one storage unit sheet that's completely filled with stags, beetles and sharks in every slot).

- At least four of my villagers are now wearing space suits. They ping each other, change their shirts (and it does the same animation and sound as when YOU change your clothes), and then they start dancing and singing the town tune. What the heck is going on here? I have at least four villagers all dressed alike and all four of them are wearing space suits. It started with one of my best friends, Aurora, then it was Goose, Apollo, and Victoria. Why do my villagers start a trend and then all dress alike? Four out of my nine villagers did this and I don't know if there will be more in the near future. Did this happen to you as well, folks? I can't be the only one. It's none of my business how they choose to dress, but why space suits?

http://moridb.com/items/tops/space-suit

Also, how come Goose wore the Racing shirt I bought for him (before he switched to the space suit shirt thing), but Aurora is not wearing the Sunflower Tee I bought for her and Apollo is not wearing the MVP shirt I bought for him? They don't wear the shirts I dropped in the mail for them. Aurora and Apollo placed the shirts I sent them on mannequins in their houses. My other best friend, Curlos, he hanged the shirt I bought for him on his wall and said that it was because it was his favorite shirt. He loves the Barber Tee I sent him so much that I dropped a Barber pole in the mail for him and sent him a Barber pole to go with the Barber tee, I told him in the letter attached to the package that I know he will put them to good use.

I think it's time for me to design my own patterns and perhaps even my own flag. I just hope I don't screw it up. And I hope my NPC villagers will wear my own patterns in the near future. 😰

In ACNL, my friend Apollo and I got scammed out of our money by Redd. Apollo approached me and said he was pretty much pressured by Redd into buying one of his paintings but that he (Apollo) doesn't know much about paintings and after warning me that he doesn't know if the painting is "fake" or not he offered to sell it to me for like 3000 bells (it's the "Graceful Painting"). I risked it because if it was "genuine" and not "fake" I'd be able to donate it to my museum. But Blather told me it was a "fake". And it seemed Apollo and I were both scammed. I lost my money, I though, both Apollo and I lost money. I couldn't donate the painting to my museum and I couldn't sell it. Heck, if I want to get rid of it (along with six pieces of trash I fished out of the ocean, like empty cans and old boots) I would have to pay a freaking disposal fee of 80 bells (80 bells for every thing you want to dispose of, and NL is the only AC "game" that makes you pay that damn disposal fee, and I've been playing the "game" for like two weeks now and Timmy and Tommy still aren't selling the Trash bin or Trash can, though the Nookling Junction just upgraded to the T&T Mart yesterday, I really need a Trash bin or Trash can so I can get rid of the trash for free).

Then I came across those articles who convinced me that some of those paintings and statues sold by Redd might be "fake" but worth holding on to for their unique differences and that hanging them on your walls in your house is better than just chucking them into a bin (Redd's bad intentions backfired and we didn't completely waste our money, art lovers always prevail over scammers):

https://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2020/04/30/animal-crossing-new-horizons-what-to-do-with-fake-art/

If I get "fake" ones by accident, it's not the end of the world and I can put them in my storage or hang them on my walls in my house. And when I'm done buying all the "genuine" ones and donating them to my museum, I'll buy all the "fake" ones for their unique differences and hang some of them on my walls in my house alongside the "Perfect Painting" and "Flowery painting" (two lovely paintings that are always "genuine" in ACNL) duplicates that I will hang on my walls in my house as well (I love paintings with fruit and flowers). I say duplicates because I will have these two in my museum and also in my house, so I will need two "Perfect Painting" and two "Flowery Painting". I hanged that "fake" Graceful Painting on my wall, on the left side of my bed besides my customized butterfly mobile.

Is the glass half full or half empty? 😁

For people who are still hellbent on avoiding "fake" paintings at all costs, there's still those guides and they can also be used by people who want to buy the "genuine" ones first to donate to their museum and then get the "fake" ones:

I think I'm going to hunt for these:

https://www.ign.com/wikis/animal-crossing-new-leaf/July_Bugs

I caught a Cicada Shell just a few hours ago. And dang it, I was jumped by a freaking Tarentula because I missed when I used the net. Now I think it skipped town. It must be miles away now. Who knows when I will see another one. This sucks. Please tell me that this thing cannot attack you after you donate it like the mosquito does after you donate it to the museum if you are in the same room with it, because if that's the case I won't bother donating a Tarentula or a Scorpion, just like I won't bother donating a mosquito or a flea. I don't want them ruining my fun when I drop by museum to visit and chill and relax in my museum. Twice now I've been defeated by a freaking Tarentula. The first time it ran away and the second time it attacked me. Dang it. What do now? Also, here's a question for you, LadyDestany. After you've been attacked by a Tarentula (or a Scorpion I'd wager) you regain consciousness on your front porch. Who in the freaking world dragged you around and dropped you on your front porch? The freaking Tarentula or your villagers? Because if it's your villagers, how can they just drop you on your front porch and leave you outside after you've been attacked by a Tarentula? And if it's the Tarentula, then that raises a whole new set of questions. And before you start telling me that I'm overthinking this, other people have asked those questions online, I saw it.


Pause it at 5:10 and read it:


We ARE July the 1st today. When the clock hit 6 AM, I'll receive the same message. That looks like bad news. I was fed up with rainy season, but this is probably worse. I'm not sure I know what to expect, as I only have about two weeks worth of experience when it comes to ACNL and even with AC period as I've never played any of the other AC "games" with the exception of the spin-off HHD.

Edit:

LadyDestani, you once told me "The campsite is permanent and it will be visited occasionally by random NPC villagers that do not currently live in your town. If you have fewer than 10 villagers, you can convince the visiting campsite villager to move into your town if you want. You can also play games with the campsite villager to get special furniture items."

Do I need to be connected online via Wi-fi to get NPC villagers to visit my campsite and play games with me? Will they only visit and play games with me if I have less than 10 villagers and if they can stay premanently? I hope not. I don't want to lose or replace any of my nine villagers but I still want NPC villagers that do not currently live in my town to drop by for visits and play games with me. I hope it's possible. Meeting new faces is always nice, even if they don't move into your town permanently.

------------------------------------------

Edit
  • I have 569 673 bells now. I have enough bells saved to add the first room on the second floor of my house (298 000 bells) and now that I started the second floor I can purchase the secret storeroom (158 000 bells), I have enough bells saved for that too. For both it'll costs me 456 000 bells, and I'm still left with 113 673 bells. I might have enough bells left for a third PWP.
  • Question. Why is it that only 4 of my 9 villagers showed up for the campsite ceremony? I thought it might because there can't be more than 5 characters on the screen at the same time, just like there can't be more than 5 bugs on the screen at the same time (which is why some people chop down all the trees on the island except for five palm trees because they want to farm stags so they can make a lot of money when they sell the stags at the Re-tail shop. Also, why is it that only Aurora showed up at the Fire hydrant ceremony? Is it because I had the ceremony early in the morning around 7 AM? Is it because of my villagers' sleeping habits, because some of them go to bed late and get up late, generally around 10 or 11 AM if what people only say is true. Should I worry that not many of them are showing up at the ceremony? Or should I just have the cereminy in the afternoon instead of early in the morning? I guess I was too excited to wait (my second PWP). Should I have the ceremonies in the middle of the day instead of early morning, like between 1 PM and 5 PM? I've heard that if you talk to your villagers right after a PWP ceremony, there's a higher chance that they'll ping you and suggest more PWPs. Well, I did that twice and it didn't work. And the only one who pinged me and added an additional PWP to Isabelle's list was Sylvia (a bridge) and it was around 1 AM, long after the ceremony was over. I wish I could get the Fire pit PWP but it's not on Isabelle's list yet so I guess it wasn't unlocked or requested. I now have a campsite and a fire hydrant, I should get LOL Club soon (I've heard it takes between 5 and 8 days to build and that it won't have a blue tent like the other buildings on Main Street do when being renovated. It shouldn't be long now before Roost Café and Shampoodle are unlocked. And eventually I will work on a fountain PWP, a bench, and a drinking foutain. Then a Street lamp and a clock. And after that we'll see.

You don't need to be connected online for villagers to visit the campsite, they will visit even if you only play offline and will play games with you. Also they still turn up even when you have 10 villagers in your town, they won't try and move to your town unless you have less then 10 but they will still visit and play games with you.
 
  • actually visited for the first time in ages
  • ...so pulled up loads of weeds
  • dailies: fossils, rocks, beach DIY, money tree, wasps etc.
  • finally caught a napoleanfish
  • missed both spawns of the stupid giraffe stag I've needed forever

@Michelle D.
Since JemAC already answered the campsite question, I'll just chime in on the tarantulas and scorpions. When you catch them and donate them to the museum, they will not attack you. They have their own little corner of the bug exhibit and they will actually fight each other. As far as who drags you back to your front porch after you get stung, that is the eternal mystery.
 
- I got the first room on the second floor of my house built. I ordered the secret storeroom. I will receive it tomorrow morning. I will have storage space for 360 items. I think I'll use the secret storeroom for my clothes and my plants, and I'll use the regular storage unit for my furnitures.

- I finally got a Trash bin, the T&T Mart was selling one. Now I can dispose of trash like empty cans and old boots for free. And I don't have to pay 80 bells for every piece of trash I fished out of the ocean.

- I won a 3DS console after buying the two fortune cookies in the T&T Mart. I was very happy, this is what I wanted. It's on a little table in the first room of my second floor in my house. I wonder if, like the Wii U, the mini-games in the 3DS can land you some Meow coupons. I hope so. Also, I've heard that if you clear a combo of 10 in Puzzle League on the 3DS, you get a Nintendo 3DS shelf (it looks like a shelf full of Nintendo 3DS games), I definitely want to get my hands on the shelf that goes with the console.

Also, I kept the 1Up cap that I found in the Able sister's shop, it reminded me of my childhood somehow.

- I found a lost item. It looked like a lunch bag with a bear face on it. I went in search of the owner of the lost item. It belongs to Cube and I returned it.

- I caught two or three different kinds of Cicada while I was on my way to doing other things.

- I received two additional PWP request; an outdoor chair and a bridge. I wonder if I should put the outdoor chair near the campsite or somewhere else. Those two projects are not at the top of my list. I want to get the Roost Café, a fountain, a bench, a drinking fountain, and an arch (flower arch or illuminated arch) first. I think I'll put the fountain and bench near the Town Hall. That's what a lot of people do and I like it that way. And if it's possible to have more than one bench built (I don't know if you can do the same PWP more than once), I will have another bench built near the ocean/beach. My house is near the ocean/beach and I can hear the waves when I'm inside my house, it's nice.

- I bought a flower bed from Harvey for 5 Meow coupons. I'm turning into a plant and flower loving maniac. Just a few days ago I received some plants from my NPC villagers; a Lady Palm, a Mini cactus, a Dracaena, an Hawthorn Bonsai, a Cactus, and a Poinsettia. Those are in storage for now. And in my house I have an Aloe, a Snake Plant, Purple lillies, Pink Roses, and Orange Tulips (they probably came from me watering certain flowers next to each other, or my NPC villagers watering them or both). I love my ever growing collection of plants and flowers. I want all the Lillies in my house; purple, white, yellow, orange, red, pink, and black. I really love Lillies period. And I defintely want some Orange Roses in my house too, they look beautiful. Harvey sell a lot of flower and plant stuff. And also, he has unique items like Disk writer, Firewood, Ramen cup, Rice balls, Watermelon, Whole pizza, Water pot, Cans (probably canned food), Shopping bag, Teppanyaki grill, Toolbox, Swinging bench, Tin watering can, Hose reel, Towel rack, Flower display case, Greenhouse box, Retro sink, Brick Oven, Bathroom shelf, Exercise ball, Billboard, Metal-and-wood chair, Metal-and-wood table, Metal flagpole, etc. Each item he sells costs 5 Meow coupons as opposed to 3 like with the RVs, but if you look at those items you can see that it's really worth it. I'm definitely looking forward to getting these.

- I came across this video:


I want one of those on my town flag (probably the first one):





Sunflower represents; Hope, friendship, joy, warmth, sunshine, summer, etc.

How do I unlock the giant sewing machine in the Able sisters' shop?

- Sometimes we have a lot of fun playing AC "games" and we go along with it (it might be because we're bored to death thanks to the pandemic and the forced confinement that has been going on for like 17 months now and we need new entertainment and new experiences lest we become depressed and suicidal), but let's face it, deep down we all know that this right here is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth:

It says, "I was forced to take out a mortgage on a house I didn't want. The only job I could get in this town was for the guy who "sold" me my house. He added more debt so I can never pay it off. #OccupyTomNook. I AM THE 99%."


(Scoff) I for one am glad we can rely on the constants in life: taxes, death, paying Tom Nook all of our bells. To the people who defend Tom Nook and say that he's not a bad guy, that he's just "misunderstood": enjoy being permanently in debt and slaving away for the rest of your lives to pay it off. We all love AC "games" here and we go along with the late stage capitalist crap and the consummerist crap in the "game" because we're bored to death due to over 17 months of forced confinement, but deep down we all know the truth about Tom Nook and how corrupt and greedy he is.

- I tried this method:


And I read this:

https://www.ign.com/wikis/animal-crossing-new-leaf/Money_Making_Guide

I watched the video and tried this guy's method and it worked like a charm. I enacted the Bell Boom/Wealthy Town ordinance and made 4 trips to the island then I caught a bunch of fishes and bugs in my town, I put them in my secret storeroom, and then I sold all of them at the Retail shop. In just a few hours, I ended up with 1, 818, 192 bells (one million eight hundred eighteen thousand one hundred and ninety-two)!!! A million and then some!! I had 1, 818, 192 bells. I spent 498, 000 bells on expanding the room on my second floor in my house. And I spent 198, 000 bells to cover the cost of the museum renovation pwp (which is necessary to unlock the Roost Café, and from what I've heard 7 to 10 days must have passed since the museum renovation project was completed before you can finally build the Roost Café). I'm left with 1, 122, 192 bells. Building the Roost Café will cost me 298 000 bells. And I would be left with 824, 192 bells. I will be left with enough Bells to buy some clothes and furnitures in the shops (also I have to spend 10 000 bells total at Able sisters' and/or Kicks to unlock Shampoodle) and save the rest for another pwp.

Folks, this guy's method is the best and is the best and fastest way to make tons of money. Sure paying 20 000 bells to enact the ordinance seem expensive, but when it's all said and done, you'll have made hundreds of thousands of bells if not a million and then some!! I will continue to catch critters and sell them and filling my bank account as much as possible in the next hour. I will cancel the ordinance around 7 PM so I can buy the items of the day in the stores without having to pay 20% more (while this ordinance is in effect you get more money when you sell stuff, but if you buy things you have to pay 20% more, all purchase prices and selling prices are raised by 20%). Folks, especially people who are relatively new to this game, go ahead and spend 20 000 bells to enact that ordinance every single time because it's so worth and you'll get far more than 20 000 bells, and then some. By the way, in the video he talks about the stags, beetles, and sharks. But let me add this because he didn't think to include that in his video, there's a big fish named the Napoleon Fish, and if you catch one it is worth 10, 000 bells, 10 000 bells for each one you catch. I caught four of those today. That's 40, 000 bells. And I got +6 golden stag and a couple Horned Hercules, each of which is worth 12 000 bells. And several sharks that are worth 8000 to 15, 000 bells. This method is the best and fastest way to get cash for pwps and house upgrades.

- I ordered and bought a Lucky cat with some of my Meow coupons.

- I caught a freaking huge Arapaima, it's in my museum. That was my best catch. Holy freak that thing is gigantic!

- I caught a Giant Trevally, but I accidentally sold it along with the other critters when in fact I wanted to donate it to my museum. Now I'll have to write a note in my notebook about it because if I caught that fish again, it wouldn't be the first time so it wouldn't mention the encyclopedia and I would end up thinking I already have it in my museum, since I always donate my first catch of every species to my museum. It's so frustrating that this happened. I should have donated it right when I got back in town and I wouldn't have accidentally sold it along with another batch of critters. From what I've gathered online it's a rare fish. I might never encounter it again. And I might have gotten lucky (not for long apparently). I don't even remember the specific spot on the island where I fished that thing out of the water.

I found these:

If it's a phone ap, I can't. I don't own and a cell phone and I don't want one. The only family I have a left are my mother and sister (who is four years younger than me) and two little nephews (one of them is 8 years old and the other is 5 years old), so I don't need a cell phone and I want to have a life outside of the electronic and virtual world. Also, I hate it when relatives or friends ignore me and play with their phones. Everywhere I see cell phone or smart phone addicts and Internet addicts. People don't seem to talk to each other in person anymore and they're so busy with their cell phones or smart phones and so obsessed with their damn phones that it seems impossible to find someone or several someones to do various activitities or hobbies with and to gather with relatives or friends.

As someone else said and I couldn't agree more with her:

(Quote) "Anyway, as I said I have no use for a cellphone. It would just be another item to drag around with me that will rarely ever be used. It would just be another item to drag around with me that will rarely ever be used. When I'm out about town, the last thing I want is someone calling me just to say hi. I'm not anti-social and I love talking to people, but I'd rather do my talking in person. There's only 4 or 5 people that call me, family and friends, and nothing is important enough that they can't just leave me a message on my home phone. As for other features, why would I want to watch a movie on such a tiny screen when I can see the same movie on a bigger screen at home? And why would I want to surf the web and e-mail when I already spend hours a day doing that at home? Everywhere I go I see people ignoring their friends and playing with their phones. One of my favourite songs a few years ago was called "Phones are Ringing All Over Town" by Martina McBride. Well, now phones are literally ringing everywhere. I will never, ever own a cell phone and I don't care if 99.9% of the population has one! I don't need or want them! Now what I want to know is, is there anyone else who hate cellphones?" (Unquote)

And in the comment section people are sneering and treating her with condescending tolerance and they say that they feel sad and sorry for her. Why? Because she isn't a cell phone addict and she'd rather do her talking in person? Because she wants to communicate and socialize with other human beings in ways other than through a freaking screen all the time? I get a lot of sneering, judgmentalism and condescending "tolerance" too and pity because I agree with her. I don't care. I'm entitled to my opinion and I have every right not to own a cell phone and I have every right to choose my way of living. People who feels sorry for her and for me, they need to get their heads checked. And people who have severe addiction to cell phone and the Internet need therapy and professional help, it's unhealthy and it's seriously affecting their daily lives and social lives and the lives of other people around them and it tears families apart.

I couldn't agree more with the OP here:

https://forums.redflagdeals.com/does-anyone-else-hate-cell-phones-861181/

It's not that I hate modern technology at all. I love computers, the Internet, video games, I watch movies sometimes. It's not modernity or modern technology I hate, it's just cellphones. I will always have a computer, the Internet, video games and a TV, but I will never ever own a cell phone. You won't catch me alive buying a cell phone. I use my mother's once in a blue moon when I'm spending time at her house and I have to make arrangements with my sister because I bought something for her and I want to know when she wants me to drop by her house to give it to her, but that's about it.

And about coffee preferences in Roost Café, I don't need a phone ap, I have this guide right here:

https://www.thonky.com/animal-crossing-new-leaf/the-roost-cafe

Today In my ACNL I...

- Made arrangement to upgrade my house, I will have a third room tomorrow morning. I will then expand my second and third rooms (my second room has already undergone the first of the two expansions) before moving on to the fourth, fifth and sixth rooms.

I don't think I will change the architectural style of my house. Living in a castle is far too arrogant and luxurious for my tastes, I just want a normal house. And I'm not really interested in the "modern house" architecture (I find it blah or meh to be honest). So I think I'll stick with the default, the "mansion architecture".

https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/House_customization_(New_Leaf)

I can't wait to start working on my kitchen. I have a blue table, a green bench, a kitchen island (I bought it with some of my Meow coupons), a kitchen corner (I bought with some of my Meow coupons), a kitchen counter (I think I received this from one of my NPC villagers), a freezer (I bought that one at the T&T Mart), a green pantry, a ranch hutch, a hot plate which I bought with some of my Meow coupons (it has pancakes in it at the moment, the default is a sunnyside egg, but you can customize it to have an omelet, pancakes or a pizza, you can turn the sizzling sound on and off), an electric kettle (there's a boiling sound, steam escapes from the spout, and it whistles) which was given to me by one of my NPC villagers, an omelet (I bought that one with some of my Meow coupons, in the bunny RV caravan), a tea set (a gift from Robin), and some fruit baskets. That's a start.

And it's logical that I start with the kitchen, because I don't have enough items for my bathroom, my living room, my study room, and my sixth room yet (I started playing just two weeks ago), so those four other rooms will have to wait. At least I can work on my bedroom and my kitchen. My kitchen will be the room on the left. If someone could give me a link to Youtube video or a website where I can see the finished product, the fully upgraded home, with all the rooms (1st floor, second floor, basement, etc) so I can make plans and decide what I'm going to do with each of my six rooms and where in the house will each of my room be (example, kitchen is going to be the left room, bathroom is going to be the right room, x room is going to be in the back, x room is going to be in the basement, etc), that would be really appreciated. It would help me plan ahead of time.

I can't wait to get started on my study room.

I already know that I want it to contain:

- A Library Wallpaper,
- An Exquisite Rug
- A globe
- A writing Desk
- A Writing chair
- A Desk Lamp
- A Homework Set
- A CD Player (so I can listen to K.K Slider's songs or albums when I study and do school work)
- A CD Shelf
- A Large Bookshelf
- A Large Magazine Rack
- A Home-Computer Rack
- A Green Wall clock (or possibly a Shamrock Clock)
- A Microscope
- A Telescope

I'm gonna have to do some research on moridb.com to find out where each of those items are sold, but my bet is most of them are sold at T&T Mart, Super T&T, T.Y.I, or T&T Emporium.

https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/Nookling_stores

I wish someone would make a more complete list like this one on the Tree Bell Forums:

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/997811-animal-crossing-new-leaf/66639721

- I wanted to start my fourth pwp (the first three are the campsite, the fire hydrant, and Club LOL, for that last one I have to wait 7 to 10 days I've been told), a foutnain. But I'll need to ask in the questions thread, because I can't seem to be able to find a good spot for the fountain. When I choose a spot, Isabelle always say that it's too close to something (too close to the Town Hall, too close to the Event Place, too close to the river, etc), so I had to freaking cancel the project (temporarily), this won't do. I wanted it to be close to the Town Hall building, I don't want it to be in the middle of nowhere. And after the fountain (my fourth pwp), I want to add the yellow bench (my fifth pwp). And I want the bench to be facing the foutain, so when I and my villagers sit and relax on the bench (whether it's daytime or nighttime) we can look at the beautiful fountain. But I can't seem to find a spot big enough for a fountain and a bench and a spot that's not "too close to something".

If I can't find help and advices on the Tree Bell Forum, I won't be able to get the ball rolling on my 4th and 5th pwps, even if I now have the perfect method to get enough money (more than enough and then some) to cover the costs of those pwps (see this video and my previous post in this thread):


https://www.ign.com/wikis/animal-crossing-new-leaf/Money_Making_Guide

- My best friend Curlos said he wanted to move out of my town, but I convinced him to stay (he said that if I felt that strongly he wouldn't leave). Then he added that he hope we can become even better friends. I don't know if I should take that as a compliment or an insult to be honest. We are already close and we already have a strong friendship. Surely he wasn't serious about leaving and it was just a test of our friendship. He's my next door neighbor and my best friend, he's kind and generous, he's funny, and I like it when he calls me "chickpea" as a term of endearment (all my other NPC villagers call me Michelle, but my best friend gets to call me "chickpea" and I wouldn't want it any other way).

https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/Curlos

https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/Nicknames

I have a feeling we could be much more than friends... We could be BEST friends!” - Curlos.

“If you want to know yourself, ask your neighbors.” - Curlos

Also, I went to his house one morning and I caught my best friend sleeping standing up and it was adorable.

Other people have caught their villagers sleeping standing up and think it's super cute (you can wake them up and you'll get a "Zzzz zzzz" and then they'll wake up and start talking to you):

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/997811-animal-crossing-new-leaf/68112530

Some people even found one of their villagers sleeping on a bench outside. That just makes me want to have the bench as my fifth pwp even more. Who doesn't like taking a little nap on a park bench on a nice sunny day or a nice breezy summer night, uh?

- Curlos, my best friend, wanted me to trade him my blue PJ shirt but that's my one and only pyjamas (and I have a pair of slippers to go with it) so I had to deline. He looked rather sad when I decline, but he got over it and told me he kept the very first letter I sent him and that it's one of his most treasured possessions. And I sent him some nice gift in the mail, an Aroma Pot (the Aroma Pot is a pot with a candle used to heat a scented wax above, Aromatherapy diffusers come in all shapes and sizes and serve multiple purposes, the one in "Animal Crossing: New Leaf" appears to be a clay or ceramic pot, the idea is to place oils, herbs, or spices in the pot and have the smell spread in the air, some involve using a candle, much like burning incense, the uses can range from helping with sinus problems, to making your room smell a certain way, some have patterns on the outside, so when the candle is lit inside in a dark room, it will not only make your room smell nice, but it will leave pretty patterns on the wall!) I hope he likes my gift.

- It was Apollo's birthday today. I get that his house might not be big enough for ten people (nine villagers and one mayor), but come on, how come it was only Aurora (my other best friend) and myself who showed up? Apollo said she gave him a gift. I gave him a present too. A Diamond Tee. The online guides say that he likes the rock style and the color white. The Diamond Tee is white except for the red diamond. And I also sent him a happy birthday letter in the mail in the morning. I would have bought him a Baseball Tee, but there's only a Baseball Shirt, and none of the villagers, Apollo included, wear long sleeves, not in NL they don't, I was even explicitely warned in some discussion boards that the villagers in NL wouldn't wear shirts with long sleeves, only Tees and Tanks, that is short sleeves or no sleeve (long sleeves would just be impractical for an animal, especially if you have wings like, like Apollo the Eagle), it's weird that they changed this in NH (I saw Aurora and Raymond wearing shirts with long sleeves in NH videos, how is that even practical for penguins and cats, for beings with wings and paws? NH makes no sense). Also, they apparently don't wear pants, socks, shoes, etc (that too would be impractical.

Since they don't wear pants or shorts, this that mean they walk around NAKED like our pet friends and our jungle animals in our world? Okay, that's just weird and awkward. Nevermind, let's not even mention this and I shouldn't have brought it up.

- I received the Lucky Cat I ordered with some of my Meow coupon the day before. Next time the turnip chick shows up in the caravan, I definitely want to buy a floor seat and it has a purple cushion, purple is my favorite color. And I think it can be customized and you can change the color of the cushion. But since the default (purple) is my favorite color I won't customize this one.

- In 7 to 10 days, Club LOL should be open and I should receive a request (from Blather) to build the Roost Café. Building the Roost Café costs 398 000 bells and it can only be done if you have upgraded your museum to have a second floor (which costs 198 000 bells). I already the money for my 4th pwps (the fountain costs 99, 800 bells) and adding a third room to my house (348, 000 bells) thanks to the method in the video above and I'm still left with lots of cash (I'll make sure I always have at least 20 000 bells saved in my bank accounts at all times, that way I will always be okay and with the method in the video above I will be able to get tons of cash).

- Three more days before Victoria's birthday (three days after Apollo's apparently). I have to find a gift for her.

Edit:

I'm watching this and I'm having a blast:


Edit:

Dang it! I knew I forgot to tell you something, folks. I got really lucky this week and after buying two fortune cookies everyday in T&T Mart I finally got the Nintendo 3DS, I got the Wii U as well, so now I can play both mini-games, and I've heard that sometimes you can win Meow coupons. And if you clear a combo of 10 in Puzzle League, you get a 3DS Shelf full of 3DS games to go with the 3DS console. I definitely wanted the 3DS Shelf (but I don't care much about the Wii U Shelf).

My 3DS and Wii U consoles are on a Cabana Table in my second room at my house, alongside other cool items like my Cat Tower (bought with Meow coupons), my Gold Stereo (gift from an NPC villagers), and my Lucky cat (bought with Meow coupons).

It's really weird that there's a cat tower, a doghouse and a bird cage in a game where your villagers are extremely evolved, self-aware and higly intelligent animals with human-like intelligence who can talk and walk on two legs and all the animals in the Crossing universe have the potential to reach that level of evolution and become like your NPC villagers.

I can’t speak for Goldie, Isabelle and Raymond, but I'm sure it would be weird if you had a pet dog or pet cat hanging around your house when you had her or him over for dinner or just to hang out.

Please note that yes, I do have a Cat Tower in one of my rooms, I also have a beautiful Rajah Brooke Butterfly in a glass container and a beautiful Surgeonfish in an aquarium in my other room (I love green butterflies and blue fishes). They're my favorite butterfly and fish in AC. Some of my NPC villagers also have bugs in glass containers and fishes in aquarium in their homes, those are my villagers' pets just like bugs and fishes are highly favored pets in our world and are found in many homes.

Look at this beauty, nothing can compare to this (I won my Bug-off Gold trophee and first place with this beautiful butterfly):


Remember this next time you see one in the game...

- Got an Amethyst Tank in a trade in exchange for a Walking Leaf. I already had a Walking Leaf in my museum and I was going to sell that one, but I liked the idea of trading it for a shirt.

- Victoria's birthday is the day after tomorrow (on July 7, three days after Apollo), I have to find a gift for her.

My favorite butterfly in ACNL (I won the gold trophee and first place in the most recent Bug off contest with this beauty):


https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/Rajah_Brooke's_birdwing

The Rajah Brooke's butterfly is a type of birdwing with has distinctive black and electric-green markings, which are more prominent in the males, while the females have white markings. Both have a red head and another strip of red afterward, which is called a collar. It was named by Alfred R. Wallace in 1855, after James of Sarawak, the Rajah of Sarawark. It is also called the Raja Brooke butterfly, sometimes mistaking the Animal Crossing spelling as a mistake - though both are acceptable. They can be found in the rainforests of Borneo and the Malaysian Peninsula, and is featured as the national butterfly of Malaysia. It is registered as being under protection.

I have a Rajah Brooke Butterfly in a glass container in one of my room in ACNL, along with a Surgeonfish in an aquarium. I love green butterflies and blue fishes. And I have a huge soft spot for the Rajah Brooke butterfly and the Surgeonfish.
