The one year challenge

I started my town on Friday! My starting villagers are Lucky, Amelia, Kevin, Wolfgang, and Eunice :) I just got a fishing pole and shovel, so it's a little easier to get money. On my second day as mayor I saw a plot was put down and it was Marshal!! He officially moved in today!
 
Today in Navidson:

-Joan was selling for 100 bells, so I bought a lot cause why not?
-got the Backyard Gardener badge
-planted some random bushes; well, the way they're planted isn't random, but I didn't pay attention to the actual bushes I planted :p
-Finally:

Eloise pinged me, saying that she wanted to move out on the 19th of this month. Being that she isn't someone I ultimately want for my town, I told her she could go. But then she pulls some, "OH JK LOL! We're such good friends that I knew you saying I could leave was code for 'pls stay,' so I'll stay!" :mad:

If we're such good friends {you visited me randomly inside my house and were my valentine}, then I better get your picture when you leave.

EDIT; My laptop charger just died, so I probably won't be able to update this week. I'll try and remember to do a massive update when I get a new charger, though. I will still be playing every day, though.

-Planted some trees and bushes in front of my train station.
-Paid off my loan so I could get a second floor!
-Donated my first art piece! Thanks Redd!

You can still participate in this challenge, even though January first already passed. Just pick your own date and well, play for a year :). We would be happy to adopt you in our little community.
Disclaimer: Last year, I posted this idea in the resetting topic. It became a thing pretty quick, so I decided to make a topic for it in a bigger place so that more people can take note of it.

Hello everyone!

As I said, I came up with this idea last year around this time. Maybe more people did it before me, I don't really know. The only thing that I know is that I failed horribly last time. So I'm trying again in 2015. If you want to join me, or get more information about this 'challenge', please read this post.

First of all; I loved New Leaf so much. But I resetted and resetted and now I have 600+ hours of gameplay spread on to I think more than 10 towns. And none of them exist anymore. I had a pretty long break, started playing again. Then I lost interest pretty quick again and that's going on for like this whole year. That's why I want to try this challenge again, but not alone. If we get together and do it in a group, we have more motivation to not quit the game we love. I really hope that some people will try this.

The rules:
* You have to start your game on January first.
You can reset for a town map as much as you like, but it's important that you plant the town tree on this day.

* Don't transfer anything.
Yes, you can trade for things on this forum but don't transfer all your 1000 hybrids and rare stuff and bells into your new town. It's no fun, trust me.

* Don't time travel.
This may be the most important rule of all, but you cannot and will not time travel. Play day by day.

* Don't plot reset.
If you really want to, I cannot hold you back. But really, it's fun to see your town grow in one year without having the upper hand in everything that happens.

As you see, it's really simple. We can use this thread to gather ourselves, try to come up with fun town names and just get excited. And after the first of January, we can keep each other up to date with the progress we made. I promise you that this is a really good chance to fall in love with the game again. Take it slow and enjoy the moment.

THE BIG LIST.

Oh wow i sticked with the same town since release hahah! I didn't knew that there were that much people resetting their games. Also the game isn't meant to be resetted that much right?
 
Tia moved in, marking the 9th villager of my town!
Amongst here are...
Marshal
Diana
Elmer
Celia
Curt
Boone
Fuchsia
Betty (In boxes though)

I think aside from Curt and Boone, I have a pretty awesome roster of animals! Especially considering I didn't plot reset for any of them.
 
Beau asked to move yesterday and I said no. Still at 9 villagers for now. Hoping to get AVERY or FRANK in my canpsite.

And I just realized I never unlocked the cafe Because I forgot to build the museum expansion TT_____TT

I got the gold axe today :)
Nice! I'm far behind on my OYC town and i've been playing everyday. No police station or Cafe.

I might not work on it until I get all the dreamies because what if a dreamie will plot on a spot I want?
 
Crap I almost forgot diana asked me to pickup a furniture piece for her :'(

But I'm too lazy to get up
 
Yeah my villagers still haven't requested the police station :/

Haha thanks pizzachu! :P I had a dream I deleted my town the other night... I was gutted cause I wasn't part of the challenge anymore lmao
 
Lol i never resetted my town, L.S. Town has been around for nearly two years! I hated my town at first and i would reset too but i chose to do a make over thingy and now it is all fine!
 
Yes! I just had my first Gracie fashion check (basic theme) and I nailed it! Got a princess closet for my efforts <3
