The one year challenge

Klaus is moving on the 20th! Another day i'm excited for. (You might know the other without me telling you)
 
I got the Silver Spender badge!
Also, I finally got the Train Station upgrade: Zen.

Pretty soon, I'll start working on the bug catching one -- not the encyclopedia one, just the generic "catch x amount of bugs."

Sorry I haven't been updating.. I've got exams coming up and I havent played in ages.. I hope my town is Ok :c
 
I would like to join! I just started a new town on my cartridge.

Mayor: MESA
Town: YOLO
Villagers: Molly, Apollo, Felicity, Cole, Maelle
 
Today in Navidson:

-caught a Clownfish for the first time
-bought a Royal Crown for the first time
-started decorating a room to be a kitchen in my Mayor's house
-traded some Perfect Cherries for Perfect Pears; I think I might've said I wouldn't do that, but none of the villagers were giving me Pears. :p

I'm currently working on getting the Gold K.K. Slider badge. 3 more performances to go!
Also, I've gotten back to the point where I don't know what to do with my town. Like...I have areas that I like, but I'm not sure how to connect everything together. I put down a brick pathway I made from that site that turns images into designs. I might see if I can make a real path {with a border and corner pieces, etc} with it. I'll update my DA tomorrow and share it then. It's still a huge work in progress, and I'm kind of just playing it by ear with no real plan. :p
 
Last night in Navidson:

-got K.K. Slider's pic {I did the thing where you have a full inventory and listen to him 20 times [or more] in a row so that he can't give you a bootleg. I got his pic in the mail that same night. Then, I was able to get a bootleg the next time I listened to him, after making room in my inventory.}

Today in Navidson:

-Joan was selling for 108. lol, nope. :p
-got the Gold K.K. Slider badge from Phineas!

That's pretty cool, I didn't know you could get his picture that way. Definitely gona try that next Saturday if I remember to play!
 
Bubbles is moving soon if anyone wants her. :)

Is anyone else getting fed up? I don't really play much anymore. I'm happy with what I've achieved so far (badge and bell wise) but I'm not happy with my town. There are little areas I like but the majority of it.... No. I really want to completely relandscape it all (something I've never done before) and kick out all my villagers (I really like some of them but I've lost interest in them). I originally wanted to play naturally and just let whoever move in (since I found having dreamies gets stale) but after the whole fiasco with Olaf I kind of want some say in who's moving into my town... Plot resetting is such a pain though so I don't know. But yeah I think I'm actually going to relandscape everything. I have the resetting itch but I don't want to reset so this is the next best thing!

Also as much as I love the idea of this challenge, it's just not as fun when there's only a very small few of us posting (somewhat) regularly.

I completely agree with the re-landscaping. I'm considering going against my original statement of not using paths made by others because while I can make a single seamless design, it just doesn't work well for a large-scale path.
I have larger areas that I like, but laying down connecting paths is hard for me. I also like where my trees are. Something I'm particularly happy with is how I was able to hide a couple of my rocks by planting trees in front of them.

As for the challenge itself, I'm still going to {try} to keep up with it, especially since I have a 2nd copy + 2nd DS now. I do wish it were more active in the thread itself, though. Sometimes, I feel awkward whenever I see that the past 5 posts have been mine, lol.
 
Yeah I only post when I play the game and I play the game when I can. I'm going to keep up with the challenge for as long as I can but it was a lot more fun when the thread was more active imo. But hey at least it hasn't died altogether!

I'm actually contemplating getting a second copy even though I was never able to justify buying one before I'm tempted now because it would be nice to have a town I could plot reset/TT in.

I caved and got paths from QR codes. :p

I watched Coraline recently and strangely want to try and mimic the garden. Maybe not exactly, but I like how it was framed. For some reason, flower placement is difficult for me.
 
Maybe this will help you with flower placement? :)

I've started cutting down all the trees in the bottom half of my map and moving the flowers onto the beach. I think I'll work on the bottom half of my town first and then the top half.
 
Today I did some landscaping, dreaming, town planning, PWP celebrations/building and I made a second character. Bubbles also suggested the illuminated arch. :)
 
Aww poppy is so cute!
I haven't played enough to post anything that warrants a long response. Just been logging in, checking to see if anyone is moving and checking bushes.
