Not Passing, Not Failing

I’ve been playing more frequently lately, so this blog entry will cover several days of playing.

Wednesday

Wednesday was December 11th, and there were two main things I noticed on the ground.

The first one is obvious: Snow now covers the grass. But the second thing I noticed is that I had wilted flowers…even though it snowed the day before! So I went back to compare my Tuesday footage with my Wednesday footage, and this is what I found.

First of all, any flowers that were wilted on Tuesday were indeed revived by the snow on Wednesday. That’s what I expected. However, some of the flowers that were not wilted on Tuesday during the snow were wilted on Wednesday! Not a lot, but a few.

So the precipitation seems to help wilted flowers, but doesn’t prevent non-wilted flowers from wilting the next day. This is not how it works in City Folk and New Leaf. In those later games, there won’t be any wilties on the day after rain or snow. Just a heads-up for those of you who still play Wild World (if you didn’t know this already).

Thursday

The good news is that Tom Nook had a spotlight product today. The bad news is that it was a hamster cage again! That makes three times already that the spotlight product has been a hamster cage! And I’ve only had a handful of spotlight items so far…how can the items be hamsters half the time? 🤣🐹🐹🐹🤣

Goldie was still sick with a cold, so I retrieved some medicine for her.

Mint showed me a letter she got, saying that even coconut thieves think they are good people.

Saturday

Teddy was out looking for a dung beetle tonight. Maybe he should find some dung first.

Rosie was all packed up and ready to leave me, but I got her to change her mind. I don’t want to let her go!

Goldie was still sick, so I gave her some medicine once again.

I planted more trees and flowers every day I played this week, but I’m still getting that “not passing, not failing” message at town hall.

Of course, I’m going to keep trying! Hopefully I’ll reach perfect town status soon, maybe even next week? We’ll see!
