• Today's HHA S-rank puts us at 239,270 points, the save as last week.
• Poor Gayle was sick today I made sure to swing by the store and get her some medicine.
• Chatted with Pashmina (sweeping at the plaza, she also asked for some help in catching an ocean fish), Pekoe (out for a stroll), Mathilda (crafting again, this time it was a golden seat), and Patty (on a shopping spree at the Able's), but couldn't seem to find Kitty anywhere...
• Decided to check out some more custom designs (believe me when I say y'all come up with some cool stuff, I'm always so impressed!)
• Decided to grab the king salmon I'd caught the other day from storage and brought it to Pashmina (it only occurred to me when I went to give it to her that it technically counted more as a river fish instead of an ocean fish, but Pashmina didn't seem to mind and took it anyway)

Hmm...nothing! Because I don't have an island yet?! Been resetting for a very specific default island layout for the past couple days and I've only seen it about four times so far, but sadly each time it had peaches or oranges as the native fruit.

Stayed up to try and get the Cast Master achievement, even going so far as to craft multiple fishing rods. Failed on my 42nd fish. I even came up with the idea to immediately press the home button should I fail to catch a fish (and close the game), but I guess I forgot that one time... Sigh. Gonna try it again a couple more times.

Well I restarted my 2nd island and I managed to fully decorate it (as for now) and I found out special tricks of putting warp pipes all around the island for navigation without bridges and inclines. Of course its still in development and stuff may look barren, but I am working on it, to get the island designer app.

 

[bestfriendsally]

nothing much... i've just been re-arranging the flower beds a bit today :>

Cast Master... Stage 2 out of 3...

FIFTY OUT OF A HUNDRED CATCHES, BABY! LOL Finally!

The "press Home button immediately if you screw up" trick works! I didn't even hit it in the very next instant! Of course, sometimes you'll get unlucky and the game would auto-save immediately after you screw up, but not always, so it's still an effective technique!

Furthermore, always catch the smallest fishes! Don't risk it with the bigger-sized ones because they seem to have a chance of getting away even if you hit it when the correct sound comes up.

50 down, 50 to go, and then it's back to actually relaxing in this game without so much pressure...

Man, it was worth it to stay up all night to finish this and ease my mind. Another sleepless night won't hurt to finally get this over with...

 

[Autumn247]

I had someone from this forum visit so I could give them some NMT.

Other than that, not much. I might get on again in a little while and work on decorating

• Ran into Wisp again; after helping him out, I recieved an exit sign as a reward. (That is, after I stopped tormenting him; I wanted to know how he'd react if I said I wasn't returning his spirit. The result was pretty amusing )
• Gulliver washed up on shore again; it took me a little while to find the communicator pieces (he really needs a case for that thing...)
• Chatted with Pashmina (chilling at home), Kitty (out for a stroll), Pekoe and Mathilda (the latter was visiting the former), but I couldn't seem to find Patty anywhere...

It's a freebie day today, so other than donating more stuff and completing daily tasks, not much to update (I did get bells out of the Money Rock correctly this time).

Oh, and there's also the little side note of... completing all three stages of Cast Master at last. Nothing big. Just 100 consecutive catches.

WOO HOO. And they said I couldn't do it... oh right, I was the one who said that. Ahem.

According to a walkthrough, tomorrow is supposed to be "a big day." I skimmed through the article and didn't read too much to avoid spoiling myself, but I'm looking forward to it. It makes sense, since the third villager will come tomorrow. I know that you could upgrade the Resident Centre after that; after which, hopefully, I could finally get my Amiibo villagers scanned.

 

[VanitasFan26]

Just reached a 5 star rating on my 2nd island on the first try. I am so proud of myself that I got so better at designing and decorating.

• Was surprised by a few falling stars; made wishes!
• Recieved a white and yellow sombrero from Gulliver in the mail.
• Chatted with Patty (chilling at home), Pekoe (hanging out in her yard), Kitty (out for a stroll on the beach, she then asked for my help in finding a planner she'd misplaced), Mathilda (who decided I needed a monocle), and Pashmina (who told me about some weird dreams she'd had, and then asked if I could catch her a man-faced stinkbug).
• Redd was visiting today; bought a rattan stool variant, but no painting, as the only one I didn't have was a fake
• Caught a Man-faced Stinkbug in the hybrid gardens and brought it to Pashmina.
• I searched high and low and lapped the island EIGHT WHOLE TIMES, but I couldn't find Kitty's planner anywhere I looked. I haven't been so frustrated in months! (For the Switch's sake, I ended up giving up it aggravates me to no end, but I didn't want to lose my temper )

• Announcements today: Jambette is moving in as my fifth villager; the museum is being renovated, and Resident Services will be relocating to a new building. Apparently, I won't be able to use the Nook Stop. I was worried about my streak being disrupted, but apparently (after Googling it up), that won't be a problem, as my streak will be restored after that. lol
• Opened the mail: Clay sent me a Revolving Spice Rack to celebrate my new room today. Unfortunately, I've already bought one... lol
• Happy Room Academy sent me a fridge for the room... Why does everyone assume the new room's gonna be a kitchen? lol
• Got a Sea Globe from a floating balloon today. Tacky.
• Paid off my loan for the new room. The next one's $700,000+, so I'll put it off for a while. I always prefer to pay it off immediately. I hate debts.
• Customized my mailbox to "Large Red Mailbox".
• Bought a bunch of stuff at Nook's Cranny today, including: digital alarm clock, hourglass, menu chalkboard (nice kitchen accessory), and a cat tower (when/if I have a cat).
• Caught a saw fish for the first time.
• Got a few fossils I can't identity today because the museum's closed.
• Agent S gifted me a lawn mower. Aw. I knew there's a reason I like her (among the three randos I picked from mysterious islands).
• Found the money rock. Was afraid I couldn't find it today.
• Helped Gulliver with finding communicator parts again.
• Started the "Fruit Roots" reward challenge by planting an orange. Also got a daily reward for that.
• "Sure, the stars and planets are floating in space, but what's space floating in? Consider yourself truthed." - Pascal. Mind blown. PFFFOO!!
• Started the "You Otter Know" reward challenge.
• Finished my dailies.
