Busy Wi-Fi Night

Late last night, I remembered to speak with Rolf. He has recovered from his cold, and he thanked me for the medicine by giving me a wrap shirt.

Rolf: But thanks to you, I'm all recovered, as you can clearly see!Tiffiny also came over to sell perfect pears. She went from being broke to having two million bells in ten minutes.

Then today, I checked for gorgeous furniture at GracieGrace, but she didn’t have what I needed. And today is the last day of the sale. *cue the sad Charlie Brown music*

Using the sadness emotion in GracieGrace.At Shampoodle, I took Kim’s suggestion and got some green contacts.

Mohawk McClover with green eye contacts.The Able Sisters had some Festivale pants. I bought them even though I’m hoping I won’t have to ever wear them.

Mabel: Ah, some Festivale pants. Isn't that iconic look really nice?
No, not really.

I went out to the island, and Kapp’n commented on how I looked like a pro wrestler! I’m not sure if it’s because of the mohawk or if it’s just a random thing he says. Sadly, I didn’t get a picture in time.

At 10:00, I opened my gate for Friday Night Forest. My town filled up instantly this time, as Wendy, Skye, and Daisy came to visit. But Skye didn’t stick around long, and the rest of us got disconnected soon after. When I reopened, Forest filled up with Wendy, Georgie, and Kim. Georgie is the Georgie from my ACCF roster years ago–aka Org the Grog; I believe this was the first time she has visited my New Leaf town.

Kim, Jeff, Georgie, and Wendy by the train station.Meanwhile, Tia won’t stop with all the tea puns! I was starting to get steaming mad.

Tia: I'm a hot tea! What's going on, sweet tea?Georgie sat at the town tree to view my town’s history, so I sat and joined her. Forest has had 263 visitors so far. I also noticed that the town tree’s leaves are back.

Viewing Forest's town history with Georgie.After we stood up, I gave Georgie my traditional town welcome: I smacked her with a hammer. Welcome to Forest.

Smacking Georgie with a toy hammer.We then did some glitching. Georgie and Kim both had tweeters, so it was easy to push them into the river. But I had to use the net method, and it was taking me a while. Eventually, I joined them under the waterfall though.

Standing under the waterfall.We then took Kapp’n’s boat out to the island and went on a shark-catching tour. I don’t mean to brag (yes I do), but I kicked their butts! I was practically catching two at a time.

Two sharks side by side in the ocean.Actually it’s somewhat rare for me to do that well. But it’s nice to finally come out on top for a change.

Tortimer: Jeff gets 3 medals, Georgie gets 4 medals, and Kim gets 1 medal.We also went on a scavenger hunt. We had to find specific totem poles and specific plants. Are you kidding me? The plants all look the same to me! They’re green leafy things in pots. I literally picked up every plant in each house and then just dropped the ones I didn’t need. Fortunately though, I only had to visit three houses–each one had one item I needed.

We then returned to town and played a 3-person sumo match.

Three-way sumo match.Georgie was the first person to fall into a pitfall. And the second. And the third! She kept getting back in, and falling out! Of course she hasn’t played sumo in years (and perhaps not 3-person sumo ever), so she didn’t really know to stay out after being eliminated. But we had to tell her to stay out–otherwise all the pitfalls would be gone before Kim and I even finished! We had a long battle, but ultimately Kim beat me once again.

Kim defeats Jeff at sumo.She’s the winner and still champion. But I do want to remind everyone that those were her pitfalls that she raised since they were baby exclamation points. I can’t punctuate that fact enough.

After I was done wriggling aimlessly in my hole, I got up and started removing the sumo ring for now.

Removing the sumo patterns.I’m sure I’ll play sumo again, but for now I want to keep Forest clean. I don’t want those pitfall seeds in my town, thinking dirty thoughts and plotting against me. 😛

Shortly after sumo, we got disconnected. I chose not to reopen my gate and ended my game for the night. Have a good weekend, everyone!

Mohawk McClover

Today, Tia told me she was going to move out on March 2nd. Oh no you’re not. I’m not letting her leave this soon.

Tia: Maybe it isn't the right time to move after all. Thanks for helping me realize that, Jeff.As I shook a perfect peach tree, the tree died (as perfect trees do after a while) and a bagworm hung down. But since the tree was dead and had no leaves, the bagworm appeared to be hanging from nothing.

A bagworm hangs from a dead, leafless tree.My final remaining snowman was on his last legs…so to speak. This was his last day of existence, so I said my last goodbye.

Snowman: We'll have to do our best to meet up and rekindle our friendship next year!After I was done watering flowers, I went up to Main Street. Luna told me that Kevin from New York was my most recent dream visitor. And up at Shampoodle, I dyed my hair green. With the mohawk wig, my Mohawk McClover look is now complete!

Becoming Mohawk McClover.After checking my island gift shop, I tried to visit a Club Tortimer island. However, there was some sort of problem and Kapp’n actually refunded my money.

Kapp'n: Aarrr... Appears me boat is in need of repair. Can't take 'er out at the moment. I'll give ye yer money back.Anyway, Skye asked me to find a peach for her. So I gave her a perfect peach, and she rewarded me with a sky wall. How fitting.

Skye: It's a sky wall.A bit later, Wendy asked if she could sell some stuff in my town. So I opened up my gate and she came over, looking quite different than I remembered.

Wendy from Oakville has just arrived in Forest.I believe I haven’t seen her since New Year’s Day, so she explored my town and met some of my new villagers such as Agent S. She couldn’t believe how many black roses I have now. I also showed her the sumo ring east of town hall. We didn’t put the pitfall seeds in, but I had a dry run against Aurora.

Practicing sumo with Aurora.I showed Wendy how to glitch…and die.

Me passed out after glitching onto town hall and saving.After glitching, she was hovering in the air.

Jeff: u hoveringI glitched into the river too, and Wendy watered my Chia Mohawk. Ch-ch-ch-chia!

Jeff: Water my Chia mohawk.Brian from Village also came over, and we all went up to shop on Main Street. Even though I have no plans on buying the full card set at GracieGrace, I did decide to buy this card lamp.

Gracie: That's not one of our discounted items. But for you, darling, I'm only asking 80,000 bells.I also showed everyone my museum exhibit rooms. Brian briefly trapped me and Wendy in the gorgeous/cabana room.

Trapped in the gorgeous room.After we were done in the museum, I ended the party for the night. Tomorrow night is Friday Night Forest, so the blog will likely be posted quite late.

Changing Paths

This morning, Reese was buying turnips for 163 bells each. Even though that’s not a HUGE amount, I didn’t want to turn down a decent profit–especially after breaking even last week. So I sold all my turnips for a total of 195,600 bells.

Reese: Well then...I could probably part with 195,600 bells for all of it, if that sounds OK with you?When I played later on in the day, I checked my mail. Crazy Redd sent me the dynamic painting I purchased yesterday. It turned out to be the real deal, so I donated it to the museum.

Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji The Great Wave off KanagawaWhen I checked Re-Tail again later, I was disappointed to see that the turnip price had gone way up since this morning. They’re now selling for 290 bells each…ouch.

Reese: Currently, I'm buying each turnip for 290 bells.I decided to ditch the ice brick blocks and make something greener. Especially with St. Patrick’s Day coming up in a few weeks. I tried several shades of green, and I’m not sure which is best. So this is how it looks at the moment, but I might (or might not) change the shade in the coming days/weeks.

My new green brick path.When I made way to my sumo ring, I was thinking it’s kind of an eyesore.

My sumo ring.I may try to play it again this Friday night, but after that, I may take it down. I don’t have a place to keep all these pitfall seeds, anyway.

After completing my walk around town, I headed up to Main Street. Luna told me that Saarah from Pokotown was my most recent dream visitor. And the Able Sisters had a Festivale accessory that was called…Festivale accessory.

Labelle: The Festivale accessory? Ooh, good choice!In the Emporium, Big Top was telling me how much he loves the smell of dirt. Interesting.

Big Top: This might sound kind of weird, but I really love the smell of dirt, peanut.I went out to a Club Tortimer island and played a couple tours with Camille. Even though she would happily select a tour to play, she didn’t speak…at all. Not hello, not goodbye, nothing. Oh well.

Going on a tour with Camille.I made a quick visit to Tom’s town, and two of his other friends came too. We took bites of the big snow cone!

Eating the snowman!Actually we were just sneezing on the snowman, but I liked the other explanation better. When I returned to Forest, one of villagers told me that Rolf was sick. So I bought some medicine for him. I thought he was going to pounce on me!

Rolf attacks me!Besides changing to green bricks, I have another tradition I do ahead of St. Patrick’s Day. If you’ve been following my ACCF blog and/or videos, you likely know of Mohawk McClover already. But I needed a few things to complete the look: A mohawk wig, green hair, and a club shirt. I ordered the mohawk wig from my catalog, but I didn’t have a club shirt in there. Fortunately, Leo was able to help me out by bringing me the shirt.

Leo brings me a club tee.Thanks, Leo! I didn’t dye my hair green yet, since it woudn’t look good without the mohawk. Of course, some would argue it doesn’t look good with the mohawk, but that’s besides the point. 😛 Mohawk McClover will be in full force tomorrow, though! Hope to see you then!
