Be Excellent To Each Other

Managed to catch a tranny last night. One bit me before I could net it, though. Woke up today to find a mysterious thing being built in the town between the museum and the Able Sisters. Can't wait to find out what it is. I don't think it's the club that I had to gather signatures for, as he was next to the downward stairs by Nook's Real Estate when i returned the petition.

Was it Boy George? You don't want to be letting him bite you.

Eee, Dorado are worth a pretty penny.

Aye, 15k! Supposedly "rare", but I caught four in a row the other day when I was trying for Char. It was that which makes me think they've tinkered with the spawn rates.

I had a star pattern on one of mine.

Have we discussed turnips yet?

I believe the general consensus in this game is that it's easier to make money elsewhere, but personally I'm still buying as many as I can and last week I doubled my outlay, and with that profit I paid off the remainder of my mortgage at that time, so for me I'm still content to dabble.

I haven't bought any turnips yet but I definitely will be later on. Even a small profit would be worth it I think.

Is the turnip seller around all day? And where would I find him?

You'll need to look out for Joan (she's a pig, or something), who is usually to be found walking around by the Town Hall, however she's only there for set times - from memory in the previous game it was only until midday, and only on a Sunday.

I spent 80k this morning. Here's to a tidy profit!

800 turnip investment here too.

You can sell turnips in other people's towns so if you get a good price, invite them over.

Talking of which, I've only just worked out how to ,best friend' people properly. I'll do that as I meet people from now on. Shame you can't do it retroactively.

Managed to bag loads of lychees earlier, doing one of the games on the island, so have planted half a dozen of these around my town.

Also shook a tree and an awesome flat screen TV fell out, which now proudly takes centre stage in my house.

Never bothered with turnips and never will. The only use I find for them is to put on the ground to rot for flies and ants.

Oh how I wish these posts applied to real life. I would be so content to farm turnips and get all my gadgets from shaking trees.

Yeah, I could happily be a turnip farmer and lead a stress-free life!

I did the turnip trading once on the GameCube, messed up first time and never bothered again. IMO the beetle-spawning island makes the turnip trading a far less important means to take in the dough...

I REME BER CJG

Turns out my mystery building on the high street is



I like how this iteration is un-folding itself.

I've just registered my third game and have claimed Fire Emblem! Lord knows when I'm going to find the time to play them all...

Goddamn paparazzo at my window.

Finally got russ stuffed, did we?

That's clearly Giantmonk.

If anyone's got horrible huge rock biter hands like me, one of these really helps the hand cramps go away.

They look like big, strong hands, don't they?

The little man with his racing snail, the Nighthob, even the stupid bat. I couldn't hold on to them.

That caused a bolt of painful emotion to hit me. But I can't for the life of me work out why....


Fake Edit:

Oh and in Non-AC news, I'm really loving Donkey Kong. It's a belter of a 2D platform game. Highly recommended.

It's a really poignant moment. The big strong protector at that moment so helpless

I have opened town gates if anyone is after a bamboo shoot. There are four by notice board, so if people take one each, enough for four people

Thanks Mimi, I've just picked one up (there are three left).

I've hidden treasure in your village for your balloon theme!


FAKE EDIT: Damn, just realised need to head back so I can best friend you!

Tut. My 3DS is just giving me constant error messages when I try and visit.

Thanks Lave! I found it, though I had to search for it as your cryptic clue confounded me.

Dimmers, I kept you a shoot aside in my pocket in case I missed you as I promised I'd save you one

'Camp' innit.

Sorry, thought it was good clue.

Just happened to have it on me. Didn't even display it. Hope it's balloony

Mimi keeps holding the DS up to her mouth and shouting "Barold!"

Animal Crossing is adorable.

Hehe, I got the clue once I had found it buried, but I admit not before. It is lovely and balloony, thank you!!

Barold!

Barold

Thats the vows sorted then.

I made a QR code that you'll all love

(It's for use in the Able Sisters' place).

I'm getting better organised in this now. Have built one extra bridge with another nearing completion, plus a few smaller things like street lamps.

Also starting to mentally plan a total revamp of my trees, and over the next week will start to chop most of the buggers down and plant fruit in groups.

The Nook store has upgraded for me now too, and the shoe shop has also opened.

Had a bizarre looking pink animal harassing me today, asking me to get enough signatures from the others so she could open up a nightclub. Sounded like a good idea, so I went with it.

Loving all the extra shops and whatnot in this game.

Dr Shrunk? I think he is an axolotl, but I'm not sure that's ever been stated in previous games.

He reminds me of Dr Jacobi in Twin Peaks.

Yeah, must have been him, and really odd looking. Will wait and see what the club's like when it's opened!

Nice little guide to identify Redd's fake products for when he arrives.

ARGH! MY EYES!

Good one. I think he's been in my town twice now, and though I've wandered in to take a look, I'd avoided buying anything yet as I remembered being fleeced by him in the last game.
