On Monday, I saw a tourist I definitely did not want to see in my town: Jambette!
So of course, I just had to pitfall her. It’s the law here in Forest. 😛
At the hotel, I asked about designing Room 5. Leilani asked me to choose a skyscraper room or a diner room, and I chose the former. I mostly used the cool furniture up here, and I hope my tourists will enjoy the view.
Leilani paid me the usual 200 tickets for my work, but I also earned 1,000 Nook Miles for designing my 5th room. Unfortunately, I learned that for the final decorating achievement, you have to design twenty rooms! Yikes. I guess that means we’ll eventually have to re-design rooms to keep earning the miles. Not my idea of fun.
Anyway, Monday’s other hotel guests included Hamphrey, Cousteau, and Miranda. I guess the Ugly Convention was in town.
While out diving, I found a scallop. Pascal popped up, as usual, but he gave me something different instead of a pearl: a pair of pearls! Pearls are worth 10,000 bells each, so he basically gave me 20k for a scallop! Nice!
Yesterday, I designed Room 6 at the hotel. I chose to decorate it as a lodge room instead of a Japanese-retro room. I used mostly log furniture, and I thought it looks really cozy.
The hotel guests for the day were Chester, Tangy, Tipper, Cally, and Cephalobot. Tangy even said Forest slays at night! 🥰
Chester was a repeat tourist, because he also visited the hotel two days earlier (on the 18th). But interestingly, he didn’t remember me!
So even though former villagers will remember you, repeat tourists apparently won’t…even if it’s only been two days! Wild.*
I later found Tangy enjoying some coffee at the Roost. 🙂
Today, I designed Room 7 at the hotel. I chose a frozen room instead of an exquisite room, so of course I used mostly ice furniture here. Looks like a good place to just chill. It even has a little snowman as a bartender. 😛
Today’s tourists were Cherry, Nana, Mac, Lionel, Maelle, and Elvis. I like those first three, but not the last three. 😛
I scanned my Inkling squid amiibo, which invited Viche to the campsite.
I’m not interested in her, but I just wanted to unlock the Splatoon items in the “Special Goods” section of the Nook Shopping app. I’ve actually forgotten about these, so I haven’t even ordered any of the Lego items yet either. But I’ve started the process now; it’ll just take a while with the 5-items-per-day limit.
On Monday, I posted a new video: Pitfall Pandemonium 2026! I used a Slumber Island to summon some previous villagers of mine and let them fall into some pitfalls. Good times. 😆
I’m still planning on opening my gate for Friday Night Forest on Friday at 10 p.m. Eastern (US) time. Anyone on my roster is welcome. Again, just don’t expect any big new obstacle courses or anything because I haven’t even started on such a thing yet. But we can hang out in Forest, check out the hotel, meet the villagers, and maybe play some sumo or something. But note that the blog entry probably won’t be up until the weekend.
*Update: Some commenters on Tumblr said they’ve had repeat tourists that did remember them. When I met Chester the first time, he was shopping in Able Sisters…so I’m wondering if it doesn’t “count” if they’re shopping? Not sure, but I’ll keep an eye out for repeat tourists in the future!
