Month: September 2020

It was raining (again) and I had 3 pieces of mail.

Starting off, I went to check the dump. There was a green table and vine paper in it.

I went down a bit and caught a walker cicada. For those of you who are unaware, every cicada except for the walker cicada is out from July to August, but the walker cicada is out from August to September!

I continued my hunt for a coelacanth because it was raining again. Instead, I found Gulliver washed up on the beach. He gave me a mermaid statue!

I bought an exquisite rug from Nook’s for 1,960 bells. I also got a raffle ticket, so I think now I have 4 of them. The raffle’s kinda annoying, but I still do it anyways.

I had a chat with Bones who begged to differ regarding Katrina’s fortune-telling because he didn’t understand what Katrina was trying to say, yip yip.

That’s all for now. See you later!

It was raining today… That means I might be able to catch a coelacanth! (That’s a huge fish that you can only get while it’s raining.

I went fishing for some rare fish, and got 4 red snappers, a barred kinfejaw, an old shoe, and for the first time in a while, I saw a balloon present but it floated towards the ocean.

After my unsuccessful attempts at catching the living fossil, I had a chat with my residents. I went to the wishing well and Tortimer gave me a shop model for labor day. Bunnie said that someone told her that the ground hardens after it rains which she said was a huge lie! And that the ground is soggy and gross! (Not hard at all…) She also said that the water level in this town never changes, and thought that Wendell got really thirsty and went upstream. Then she doubted herself by saying that even he couldn’t drink that much water. I agree!

Another balloon showed up! But this one didn’t land in a tree, either. It just kept floating towards the sea. In this game, instead of shooting them down with slingshots, you have to wait and see if it hits a tree, then it’ll fall down…

I took my daily trip to the dump and found Wendell along the way. I gave him one of my red snappers and he said it was his favorite fish, and then he gave me a tropical vista wallpaper. In the dump was a modern lamp and a trendy top.

That’s all for now, see you later!

Piper, the peppy ostrich villager left with the same letter as Pinky in https://tdcacblog.home.blog/2019/02/08/hi-candi! I went to Acre E-1 to fine her replacement: Bunnie, the peppy, er, bunny villager! It’s so hard not to mistake her for another species because her name definitely isn’t based on it… (If you couldn’t tell, that was sarcasm.)

Lucky was bugging out as usual. He told me that he need food or else he’ll “flip his wig”. Eventually, I left the acre and went back and he went into his house. Problem solved!

I had a chat with Bones and he said that there’s nothing like a good letter to make him wanna take a long nap, which he followed up by falling asleep. He said that people remind him to not fall asleep “out here” even though he was in his bed-less house!

Next, I did something I basically never do when I play these games. I went fishing and caught a red snapper! “I caught a red snapper! That was a snap! (I really have to stop saying things like that…)”

I did a little more fishing and caught 2 pale chubs and another red snapper. I would write more, but I suspect I’ll be playing for a bit to long to write it all here.

See you next time!

I got a letter from Tom Nook about a rubber tree. He told me that it’s a “stunning offer”. I don’t think I’ve ever needed a rubber tree at a low price before, but okay…

A rose shirt and a Green Tie-die were in the dump. Funny thing is, I’m wearing a green
tie-die shirt right now!

Besides the rubber tree, there was also a Newton’s Cradle that I bought! I heard it banging as soon as I went to the second floor of Nookington’s.

I went to cut down a tree, but bees came out of it! There’s no medicine in this game, so you have to wait until the next day to get your stings healed.

I had a run-in with Candi who had recently moved to Columbus, my 2nd town. Villagers that move away due to train travel can sometimes show up at the town they moved from. She said that she would’ve thrown the biggest temper tantrum if I had forgotten about her, but luckily I didn’t.

Speaking of “Luckily”, I ran into Lucky who seemed to have himself under control today. He said that I looked terrible because of my bee stings…

I also ran into Amelia, who told me that my stings must hurt and called me a poor little pincushion!

No matte what I do, whenever I plant trees in Acre D-4 they always die. I suspect I may have hit the tree limit in the town, but the wishing well says that that’s what I have to do to get the perfect town status.

In September, there’s a million red dragonflies everywhere, so it’s pretty easy to make a bit of money.

I cut down a non-bee-infested tree so that I could plant an apple tree in its place. I have no clue why this game’s so nitpicky about where trees can and can’t be planted. It gets really annoying at times.

Last thing I did was to sell a fossil that I had from a few days ago. Tom Nook gave me 5,000 bells which was enough to overflow my bell count into the 100,000s! The final debt is really expensive, so that was really helpful with that. I paid off 100,00 more bells, now I have 429,047 bells left on my loan. Ouch…

That’s all for now. See you next time!

That’s all for now, see you later!

You just gotta watch your snack intake a little better.

Lucky, Animal Crossing – Population: Growing! 2020

I started up my game pretty late today; I forgot to start up my game earlier…

First, I went to the dump and found a noodle shirt. From what I can tell, it’s supposed to look like the carton that lo-mien from a restaurant comes in.

I talked to Copper and he told me that on the 3rd (That’s tomorrow!) they’re running their B.I.P. (Bust Illegal Parkers) campaign. That means that hopefully Gracie will be here tomorrow and I can wash her car to get some clothes!

Since my last post in August, I did some train traveling and as expected, somebody moved away to the other town… It wasn’t Bones, thankfully, but Candi, the peppy mouse moved. I first met her in I think one of my first posts here! Go back to the February archives to the first regular post and you should be able to find it. That was before I separated parts of the post with new lines. I might go back and change those someday, but they’ll stay their cringy selves for a little longer.

Speaking of Bones, as soon as I went into the acre where his house is, he went into his house. I went inside at the same time as him but once the interior loaded, he was somehow already at the back corner of his house! What is this dark magic and how do I posses it?

Nook’s had yet another cream sofa… I feel like I’ve seen it for the 15,000th time already! I have no clue why it keeps constantly popping up all the time. They still don’t have any green or blue furniture though.

Lastly, I had a chat with Lucky who asked me if I got fatter, I told him “Maybe…” because in this quarantine it’s really hard to not eat tons of junk food. He said, “Uh-huh. I thought so. Man, I know how it is. You just gotta watch your snack intake a little better. Especially at this time of day. Eating snacks now is like a first-class, one-way ticket to Porkdom. Me? I hide my weight with my clothes so I can eat whatever, whenever, rrr-owch! Ka-ching!” (rrr-owch is his default catchphrase.) He really seems to be bugging out a lot… I found him by his house moving around in all sorts of weird directions. It seemed like he wanted to go into his house but couldn’t.

That’s all for now, see you tomorrow!

I’m back! To start off this entry, I’ll be telling you about my hunt for blue furniture.

I’m currently on a hunt for blue furniture for my 2nd floor. So far, I have blue trim wall, blue flooring, a blue dresser, a blue bench, a blue clock, and a blue closet. The main thing I’m after is the blue bed right now.

Next, I paid off more of my loan. I paid 12,455 bells to end up with (again) 99,999 bells! Now, I have 529,047 left.

I ran down to Lucky’s house, but he wasn’t home. Amelia lives in the acre to the right of him, in E-2. She asked me if I wanted to join a secret driving club, I said yes, and she was surprised that I really wanted to join. She called me weird, which I totally agree with…

Next, it was time to do some fossil hunting, but I found Lucky along the way, who himself, could be considered a fossil! I mailed the 1 fossil I dug up (but not Lucky) and stopped for the day. See you next time!
