The Summer Challenge

*snip* (My post about the bridge)

Regarding this, I have decided to start over again. I did so on the same day, after having someone hold my items and eventually found a good map, that has cherries, triangle grass, western beach, western waterfall and an overall nice place for my house and the buildings. Now I'm totally convinced with my map and will unlock Public Work Projects tomorrow. I took a day longer for the development permit, but it's not too much of a problem.

On the day I reset, I had already bred some hybrids in my old town, that I transferred along with the carnations and hybrids I bred the day before. That included a black rose, which I'm pretty happy with. I will be trying to get a hybrid red rose now and then go for blue roses. I also bred a red carnation today. As for the fruit, I've planted my perfect cherry as well as some pears and apples. I still need peaches and oranges though, so maybe I can trade some cherries for those (the other trees aren't fully grown yet). My tent has upgraded to a tent and today (which is the third day by the way) I will be paying the mortgage for the larger house. I'm also already saving up for tomorrow, when I can place pwps. I wonder if I should place the campsite or a bridge first - my current bridge placement is a little annoying but I'd also like to adopt some villagers from the campsite while my town is still empty.

I think that's generally it so far, by the way my villagers are T-Bone, Pudge, Amelia, Peanut, Rhonda and today Quillson moved in. They're not great, but good enough to live with for a while. I don't plan on keeping any of them though.
 
Life in confetti:

-another badge for lolly
-the cafe opened
-Tia has moved in
-added to the museum
-accidentally bought a fake from redd
-still buying saplings. How do you get the golden axe anyway?
-Ruby has refused to move. She has brought it up three times and has changed her mind each time I've said yes so I've decided to let her stay permanently if she likes my town that much.

Would anyone be willing to sell me oranges and pears? Or trade for perfect peaches?

Hi Akane, I have the fruit you are looking for. I will collect some baskets for you and no need to pay. Let me know when you are able to collect them :)

@Barbara, I have the fruit you are looking for (peaches and oranges). I also have two towns with cherries as native fruit. I can get two baskets to start you off to perfect fruit growing if you want.
 
I have already gotten the fruits I needed from someone else, still thanks though. I think tomorrow or the day after my first trees will be completed growing, and in 2 days I'll also be able to go to the island and go plant some beach fruits in my town. :)

Thanks! I'm free anytime today. Let me know if there's anything I can get for you. ^^
 
Awh, this seems like a lot of fun.. Unfortunately I am really far into my main town where this would be impossible to do pretty much. Baaah. I wish I had a extra town now to do this challenge. Oh well. :)

I hope everyone is having fun at it! Who's where in their challenge? Has anyone gotten perfect town yet? I'm curious on that. Though I would be surprised if they did. It would take perfect planning annd over workinng to complete PWPs everyday I think.
 
Thanks! I'm free anytime today. Let me know if there's anything I can get for you. ^^

Hi Akane, sorry I have been so busy today - daughter's 'graduation' and prom. I have just returned home from collecting her. Are you able to come now? Add FC: 1220-7175-8672.

Ooops, appears you logged off while I was posting this. It is past midnight here in the UK. I will head for bed now. Perhaps tomorrow. Let me know the best time for you. :)

Life in confetti:

-New hybrids
-2 Jacobs ladders
-third bridge paid for
-passed first Gracie's check
-added to the museum
-Wendy is no longer sick
-new houses in the spot pass area!
-pango is moving
-pwps were suggested
-furniture is selling for premium
 
Progress in Florasy so far (6th day):

- today the Garden Shop opened
- I now have a full grown tree of every regular fruit and perfect cherries, bananas are growing
- unlocked the island two days ago (on Sunday)
- my house is now 8x8 (the 2nd upgrade after the tent)
- I have several pink and orange pansies, plus a few pink lilies, orange pansies and carnations
- received my first badge today - I have apparently already caught 50% of all bugs!
- Sable is growing more friendlier - I expect the QR code machine in a couple of days
- Katrina visits today for the first time
- built my first pwp, a suspension bridge
- also accidentally unlocked the Reset Center as pwp. -,-
- Snake and Fuchsia moved in

And that's about it so far... Once I can scan QR codes I will probably start my hand at creating paths, that'll take a while though. Does anyone have an idea how to path from/to your house? I dislike a 3-wide path but 1-wide is too small... Pathing horizontally isn't an option (a bridge that can't be built and isn't neccessary to be built should be built for that).
I'm also afraid I'm falling in love with Pudge - I disliked his weird face at first but I'm growing to find him rather cute. The thing is that his house is placed in front of (not right in front of though) the town hall and I'm not sure if I want that house there.

Here is my town map by the way!

The right house in front of the town hall is Pudge's, I'm planning on moving Snake (the left house) out as well. The place between the two 8-shaped ponds is probably for the police station, thoughts on that? And how about the campsite and caf??
 
Hey guys! My show has started now so I'm free all day before 6pm so i'mm backkkk :D

Welcome to all the new people! And congrats on the progress people!! I definitely have a bit of catching up to do as my rehearsals stretched to 12 hour days over the last week, but now it's just the show itself I have to go to in the evenings.

@Lavo I am thinking of creating an Autumn Challenge come September if people are interested. I would carry over the uncompleted tasks of this challenge and more Autumn related tasks. I think you should definitely start again now if you're tempted and get ahead of the people who'll join the Autumn Challenge ;) We'd love you to rejoin us =)
 
School finally finishes on Wednesday, so I'll finally be able to start resetting for a new town! I'll start it ahead of the autumn challenge that will begin come September :) well done to everyone's progress c;
 
Update on Carragh

After hitting a wall with the development of my town, this week has been most productive.

* I have scratched my previous natural path plan and established a new network of brick path throughout Carragh.
* The Medieval theme that I held is no longer - I paid off the cafe today! I am going back to my original idea of making Carragh a beautiful seasonal village, so at the moment I am turning it into a Summer Paradise.
* I have built a number of new public work projects throughout the town and a number of new PWPs were recommended to me, including pyramids, wooden bench and statue fountain.
* Hybrids are going strong.
* Yellow and Red hibiscuses are thriving throughout the village.
* I have now a total of 22 badges.
* Mayor Conor is sporting a beautiful Summer tan :P
 
This sounds like lots of fun! I would love to join this challenge if it is not too late? I actually just reset my town and found a perfect map on my first try and the town fruit is apples! (My favorite :))
 
How many months are left of this?

I might join the autmn-challenge. I'm not reseting though

Hi guys, is everyone alright? It seem that people are really busy!

I definitely want to start playing along again if that is alright. I haven't played for nearly a month and have no interest in time traveling, it just makes me bored to be honest.

It's been so quiet lately. My holidays started at last on Wednesday but I haven't picked up ac for a few weeks. I plan on doing so soon and finding a nice new town to settle into!
