Month: November 2016

As I started up the game tonight, a message informed me that today was La-Di-Day! This event wasn’t in the other Animal Crossing games, so I wasn’t sure what to expect.

But before I went to investigate, I took a look at my newly upgraded house. An upstairs window has been added, which is visible from outside.

On the inside, my main room is now 8×8 instead of 6×6. But I’m not really using much of my space yet.

I headed over to town hall, expecting to find Tortimer there to tell me what La-Di-Day was all about. But he wasn’t there, and they didn’t say anything about it inside of town hall either. But my buddy Static clued me in. He told me that the best song will become the town tune.

You have to talk to the animals a second or third time before they’ll sing their song for you. Once they do, you have the option of “hiring them,” which means you’ll adopt their song as the new town tune. Despite the odd description Static gave me of his song, I actually enjoyed how it sounded and I made it the town tune. For the moment, at least.

But La-Di-Day wasn’t the only music event going on. Since it’s Saturday night, K.K. Slider was also at the Roost to perform some live music. I let him pick out a random song for me, and he played Two Days Ago. It’s one of my favorites.

When I visited Pate, I found her all packed up in boxes. Even though she’s not one of my enemies in town, I decided to let her go. So long, ducky.

When I came back around to Nook ‘n’ Go, I saw a curious sight: Static was walking with a net out, followed by Yuka with a net out, followed by Baabara with a net out! Is today also a net parade day?

After saying no to Biskit’s song, I went to visit Chevre. To my surprise, her song was the Super Mario theme! What made it all the more interesting was that she was using Alfonso’s old catchphrase, “it’sa me.”

I said no to that song too. But I visited Kiki the black cat next, and I kind of liked her song. I’m not sure if it was better than Static’s, but it was hard to say no to Kiki. You’re hired!

I also listened to Bill’s song on my way home, but I stuck with Kiki’s tune for now. Overall, my first La-Di-Day was a bit anticlimactic. The event definitely isn’t a huge deal or anything, but it is a nice way to occasionally change up your town tune.

Once home, I put Two Days Ago in my stereo and then went up to bed. I’ll see you all next time!

Here’s a video showing many of today’s events:

I made it into Nook ‘n’ Go just before it closed for the night, and Tom Nook thanked me for paying off my loan. He told me my house would be expanded by tomorrow.

While was I was there, I bought some medicine just in case Static still needed it. But when I visited him, I saw that he was feeling better now. He was talking about Kiki and Chevre’s relationship, wondering if they were self-absorbed.

I had a chat with Yuka outside, and she had a flea on her again! She was talking about pretty bugs for some reason, saying that their beauty keeps predators from attacking them. She then said that she always knew being pretty was the best weapon. As if she could know that.

Since I was close to the gate, I stopped in to check the lost-and-found. Booker had a pitfall seed, so I took it…for a good cause. 😉

When I ran into Bill, he asked me for a new catchphrase. I told him to say “hunt me.” Anyone up for some Duck Hunt? 😉

I did some fishing, and two of my catches were fish that I still needed for the museum: a dace and this football fish.

When I went to the museum to donate them, Blathers had an interesting (if not disturbing) story about the football fish. He said that males of the species can get attached to females, and then absorbed into them.

Yikes. He then said he was glad he was born an owl. Wait, weren’t you hatched, not born?

Bill wasn’t the only animal asking for a new catchphrase tonight; Yuka asked for one too! I told her to say “I’m evil.”

I then returned home, put K.K. Ballad (from last Saturday) into my music player, and headed for bed. See you all next time!

When I started the game up, I was informed that the flea market was going on today. I went into Kiki’s house, but she didn’t have anything I wanted. Still, I wanted to see what her prices were like, so I asked about her gyroid (a mega bovoid). She wanted 1,530 bells for it. Uh, no thanks. I declined her offer, and she said she was disappointed in me.

I quickly left her house. Outside, I found my first four-leaf clover!

Static was still sick today. Things like illnesses and requests seem to last forever in Wild World! Nook’s was closed for the night already, and I didn’t feel like buying him medicine anyway. The dude needs to get over his sniffles by now.

Biskit was talking about a letter he got from the Happy Room Academy (HRA), saying they called his house a mess. He said it was just because his style hasn’t caught on yet. He then proceeded to laugh like a maniac. What a crazy dog. I like him.

Since it’s Saturday night, I went down to the Roost to catch some live music. I asked for a random song, and K.K. performed K.K. Faire for me–one of my favorites!

After finding my money rock, I went to town hall to pay off the last 25,000 bells I owed on my mortgage.

I couldn’t return to Tom Nook since his shop was closed, so he may not expand my house until I talk to him again.

When I went back home, Baabara baarged into my house. She wanted to do some shopping for the flea market, so she asked how much I wanted for my Mrs. Flamingo. At first, I said 1,500 bells. But she said that was too high. She also refused to pay 999 bells. I tried one last time, saying I’d sell it for 800 bells, and she accepted.

She also asked about my flying saucer, and I asked for 9,999,999 bells. She declined that offer, so I ignored her and went up to bed for the night. Good night, and I’ll see you next time!
