Raffle Day

Since my last blog entry, Patty has moved out and Winnie has moved in. I also have Winnie in my City Folk town.

A letter from the HRA told me I live like an animal. Well this is Animal Crossing, so give me a break! 😛

Today was raffle day. I had enough tickets for two raffle entries, and one of them actually won me a white queen. Of course I had no need for that, so I buried it on the island for my latest attempt at getting some island goodies. After a couple trips back and forth, I ended up getting a surfboard. Getting the whole island set may take a while…

Island Trips

Today I made many visits to the island. (My islander is Ankha, by the way). Believe it or not, I never really acquired the island-exclusive items before, so I’m working on that now. Today I got the Diver Dan and the Wario’s Woods NES game. This is a time-consuming process and it’s kind of annoying since she won’t always give an island-exclusive item, even when she’s happy. So I’m not sure how long it will take to get them all. I’ll try some more one day soon.

Introduction

Hi everyone, and welcome to my blog for Animal Crossing on GameCube. In case you don’t know, I am jvgsjeff on Youtube and I make videos of Animal Crossing (and other video games). Here is a video tour of my town:

My current town residents are: Candi, Puck, Kitty, Genji, Maple, Static, Belle, Patty, Ursala, Sydney, Baabara, Hank, Tom, Emerald, and Kody. Of those 15, Kitty and Patty are relatively new and likely won’t stay around. The other 13 have been in my town for years. I’ll try to keep this blog updated on who comes and goes.

I like to play the game as it was meant to be. Meaning, I don’t time travel, I don’t use Action Replay to cheat, and I avoid universal codes as much as possible. Although I admit, if they ever discovered/released a universal code for The Legend of Zelda, I would definitely use it, since there is no legitimate way to acquire that game. Plus, I love Zelda. 🙂

As for what I’m trying to accomplish in my town, there are two main things. I’m slowly trying to replace trees with golden trees (by burying shovels in the daily glowing spots). I have many golden trees now, but I would like even more. I’m also trying to fill up my catalog, or at least as much is reasonably possible.

I also try to maintain my perfect town status, which really only involves pulling weeds since the tree-counting was already done several years ago. In case you’re wondering, I’ve had this game since September 2002, just a few weeks after it was released.

That’s all for the introduction, I s’pose (that’s Otis’s catchphrase, which I enjoy quoting). Future blog entries will be about what happens in Forest. Such as what I did, who did something interesting, what interesting items I got, who moved in/out, and so on. I hope you enjoy this blog and come back again.
