Today, Tabby invited me over to her house. Eww! No way!
I worked a shift at the cafe and earned some superb coffee beans. Brewster also gave me a third gyroid, the mini brewstoid. In this picture, it’s the small one on the right.
And as I made my way around town, I reached the northeast corner of town, where I usually backtrack to get to my bridge. And then I saw it. Yes, my brick bridge is done!
This provides a nice shortcut and it’s quite helpful. And soon after crossing, I saw Katt, who asked me for an ocean fish. I was glad to help! No, really! I caught a wonderful ocean fish just for her!
A bit later, Rory was showing off his outfit to me. It was designed by Someone from Anytown. Oooh, fancy stuff, Rory. My clothes aren’t as fabulous; they’re made by Shopper from Kmart.
Tabby approached me, so I had to talk to her. (Eventually, she’s going to have to move out, right? Right?!) Unfortunately, that discussion didn’t happen today. But she did suggest a new town project: an illuminated heart. Wendy has an illuminated heart (you can see an animated pic on my July 7th blog entry), and it’s pretty cool. But still, it’s not a project I’m planning to install. Besides, Tabby would think I put it up just for her, and that could be all kinds of awkward.
I then went into town hall to trigger the completion ceremony for the brick bridge. Even though you have the option not to attend the ceremonies, they’re quick and fun, and I haven’t turned one down yet.
I then returned back to town hall to check my town status. Wait, what is this? Can it be? Forest has achieved perfect town status?!
Woohoo!
Isabelle said that nobody wants to move out of a perfect town, which is a scary thought. I don’t want to be stuck with Tabby, Katt, Rory, and Tex forever! But I’m sure it’s just hyperbole; at least I hope so. Otherwise, I’d have to start trashing my town! 😛
Isabelle also announced that I can remodel town hall, or I can have a new flower clock built! It’s a perk of having a perfect town. Awesome!
And now that I have a third bridge, this is my current town map:
After that, I made my way up to Main Street. T.I.Y. had a cool stained glass for sale. I bought it.
I put it in my house, but it doesn’t look real great if you put it over an existing window. Part of the old window is still visible, so it may look best on an empty wall (even though you won’t get sun shining through it that way).
After that, I saved my game. But I started the game up again at 10:00 for Friday Night Forest. Dash, Daisy, and Wendy came over to visit.
We did some dancing at Club LOL and then went to my house. Wendy gave me a free harp, no strings attached.
And we spun my colorful wheel, with each of us saying the number it landed on. Clearly, everyone sees something different.
Everyone had nice custom outfits except me.
After we were done in my house, we went to the island.
After catching some fish and bugs, we went on a tour (to save our game). We did the firefly tour, which I don’t recall playing before.
Wendy won that tour, but we also did a hammer tour, which I won. We did another round of catching fish and bugs before returning to Forest. Dash left once we returned. Nick ended up coming in to take his spot. But Nick didn’t stick around too long. After he left, Wendy reminded me to try this glitch to get on the train tracks. We had a lot of trouble, but we eventually got Wendy up onto the tracks.
Daisy and I were taking turns, trying to get either of us onto the tracks also, but we weren’t having any luck. But then Joey came in. With his help, he was able to get me onto the train tracks as well!
Joey left, and I ended the party shortly after 1:00. I had a fun night, and I got a lot done today too–namely achieving perfect town status. Good day.
One other note. Some of the Europeans on my friend roster have been asking for an earlier open time so that they can come to visit. So this Sunday, I’ll be opening my gate at 2 p.m. Eastern U.S. time, which is 7 p.m. London time. I can’t limit it to only Europeans of course, but at least now you’ll have a fighting chance to get into Forest without staying up to 3 a.m.
It was a beautiful day outside, and Benedict suggested a new town project: a caution sign!
I admit, it would be funny to put it outside of Tabby’s house or Katt’s house. But I’m hoping those two animals don’t stick around my town very long, so it would probably end up being a waste of 43,500 bells.
I went to work at the cafe, and for the first time, I got everyone’s order completely perfect!
Unfortunately, nothing special happens if you get all four customers’ orders perfect. You still get the superb coffee beans of course, but you don’t have to be perfect to get that.
But I went inside, and I was not impressed. She used a modern wood wall and a sandlot for the floor.
Even though I like the modern wood furniture, I think the wallpaper is ugly. I would grow board of it very quickly.
I had most of the money for it, but I still needed about 20,000 bells more. So I did some fishing, both in town and on the island. I caught three new fish I needed for the museum: a nibble fish, a gar, and this ray:
When I was done fishing, I had earned more than enough money to finish paying off the bridge. It will be complete tomorrow.
And Katt told me that Rolf said she looked like a cyclommatus stag. No way! Cyclommatus stags are so much cuter!
And once again, Big Top told me of his plans to move out of town.
Of course, I didn’t let him leave.
After finishing up my walk around town, I headed up to Main Street. Luna told me that 1,111 people have visited my dream town (make a wish!).
And I got a nice surprise in the Able Sisters. Sable gave me a mannequin!
Even though it looks pretty creepy, it is surprisingly helpful. You can put a whole outfit on it, and then switch clothes with it all at once. Or you can do it one item at a time, if you prefer.
And as you may know, I let my friend Wendy come over to shop pretty much every day. Her Shampoodle just started letting her get color contacts, so she showed me her new green eyes.
After I sent her home, Tabby wanted to play Nookling with me. 😮 Actually, she just wanted to buy a shirt I was carrying for 90 bells. That’s not much money, so I declined her offer, hoping she would offer more. But she didn’t increase her offer. Oh well.
