Month: November 2012

Today was the last day of November, which meant it was the last day for mushrooms. So I collected my last batch of the year.

I later opened my gate at 10:00. Yann came over to visit.

Saharah was in town, looking for old wallpaper. So I went around asking my neighbors. Sydney was sick and locked in her house, so I couldn’t ask her. Sally was locked out of her house, so I couldn’t ask her either. Of the others, only Avery and Del had old wallpaper for me.

I still needed one more, so I decided to go fishing for Sally’s key in hopes she would give me an old wallpaper. Eventually, I caught her key.

I gave it to her and she rewarded me with a metatoid.

I then asked her for old wallpaper, but she didn’t have any. It felt like I went to all that trouble recovering her key for nothing. I didn’t have an old wallpaper in storage, so I was unable to get a rare wallpaper from Saharah this time.

This marked the third time in a row, and 5th out of the last 6 times, that I only had one visitor on Wi-Fi. If this keeps up, I may have to start opening my gate less often. Not enough people play to justify opening my gate every week. So I sat in my house and listened to sad music. 😀

In addition to the metatoid Sally gave me, I also dug up a mini tootoid. It’s been so long since I had been able to dig up a gyroid, since they only show up after a rain/snow. Anyway, Yann and I talked about food for a while, and I ended up closing my gate at midnight.

There was no snow yet in Forest. However, went I went to the city, it was snowing there! Yes!

While in the city, I checked out Redd’s new inventory. He had a cabana bed, a quaint painting, and a super toilet. I passed.

Back in Forest, Bob asked me to play hide-and-seek. I had ten minutes to find him, Amelia, and Rowan.

Bob was hiding behind the empty house, which Megan claims is her vacation home.

It took me about 8 minutes, but I did eventually find everyone. Bob rewarded me with a mini-sproid.

And apparently, I never noticed how much I like the shade of green on the roof of the Able Sisters’ shop.

It was another dry day in Forest. I’m hoping the first snowfall of the season comes soon. So I went around town, watering my flowers. Avery approached me; he wanted to move out. I told him not to go, and he agreed to stay.

When I was done in Forest, I saved and quit my game for the day.

But I wasn’t done with Animal Crossing: City Folk just yet. You may know how I made a test town on my Wii U to test things out, called Bananas. That town was deleted when I moved Forest from my Wii to my Wii U. But I’ve decided to make a new town on my Wii, although it’s mainly just so that I can get the DLC that comes out. So this is Bananas 2.0:

I happen to like this town layout quite a bit. For one thing, it has an island–a boot shaped island. But more importantly, Nook’s, Ables, town hall, and the museum are all bunched up in the same area, all near the gate. I chose the house just below town hall, so my house is near everything as well. That is extremely convenient.

The starting villagers are Mallary, Puck, Fang, Rod, Wendy, and Peaches. Fang is cool and Puck has long been one of my favorite animals (I have him in my GameCube town).

So it is a nice town, but I still don’t plan on playing it much. You might see an occasional blog post about Bananas, but Forest will remain my main town.
