Jeff's Animal Crossing Blog

On Thursday, I quickly made my way over to Maple’s house. I asked her about Static’s picture book, and fortunately, she handed it over. When I took it back to Static, he rewarded me with 1,040 bells. I decided to post a video of the whole wild goose chase.

By the way, that’s not the video I mentioned working on last time. That video is coming along nicely, but it’s not done yet. It’s a bigger project. I’m hoping to have it done by this upcoming weekend, but we’ll see.

Late on Saturday night, I found Wisp in town. He asked me to find all five of his spirits, so that he won’t be punished by someone named Irontongue.

So I went around town, catching all the spirits I could find.

It took a while, but I eventually caught all five. Wisp rewarded me with a caterpillar tee. That was one of four Gracie-exclusive shirts that I still needed for my catalog! I didn’t realize Wisp would give out Gracie’s clothes!

I may have seen a ghost in Forest, but I saw something much scarier when I started up my 2nd town of Ohio.

Jambette was the newest resident in town. The other residents (at the time) were Cookie, Deena, Ursala, Chuck, Chico, Chief, Teddy, Yuka, Nate, Lulu, Freckles, Stella, Cleo, and Leopold. I say “at the time,” because I will be time-traveling in my Ohio town in order to get some footage of some things I need for my video. So the list of residents could be quite different by the time I’m done.

As for Jambette, she’s lucky that pitfalls are relatively rare in this game. I’d pitfall her plenty, if I could.

In Nook’s shop, Tom Nook told my character Scott that a moldy shirt was the height of fashion…according to Fauna magazine.

I decided to have a little fun with that quote, so I made a mockup of Fauna’s latest magazine cover. 😉

I played in Forest again today. As I was asking villagers for jobs, Baabara told me that her boyfriend loves mounting insects.

She was, in her own weird way, asking me to catch a bug for her boyfriend. So I found a common butterfly for her. She rewarded me by giving me her old dark stone. Uh, thanks.

I found a track model in the dump, so I put it in my basement. I’d like to fill a whole row of track models, so my train will appear to sit on a full track. I’ll need to rearrange some things to do that though. But that’s a project for another time.

At the wishing well, I watched Candi, Ursala, and Baabara play with a volleyball. I noticed that even when they’re angry or sad (from conversations with each other), they’ll still keep kicking the ball around! It’s like they’re not in the mood, but yet, they can’t resist!

That’s all for now, but I hope to see you again soon! Have a great day! 🙂

As I started up the game today, I found Cube’s goodbye letter in the mail. Sad to see him go, but that’s how things go.

When I ran into Snake, he told me he painted my roof for me! I hate when animals do that, so I told him that was lame.

I went home to look at my house, and it turns out that Snake painted my roof pink! Definitely not my favorite.

Since he just happened to be in acre B-4, I took advantage of the situation by using the bridge glitch to push him into the river! I then hit him with the net as well. He was ready to fight me…aside from being stuck in the river, that is. 😛

I spotted a new house in town, so I checked it out. Pudge the bear cub was inside; he just moved into town. He’s okay, but not one of my favorites.

When I ran into Baabara, she insisted that I should buy a new carpet from her…for 33,370 bells. I kindly told the rude sheep to go fluff herself.

Over by the wishing well, Hank told me that he painted my roof. Wow, twice in one day?? But since my roof was already a color I didn’t like, I didn’t mind that Hank painted over it. He painted it green, and I was okay with that.

I asked Static for a job, and he asked me to retrieve a picture book that he loaned to Ursala.

I headed to Ursala’s house, but she told me she loaned the book to Snake. So I went to find Snake in the grass, and he told me Belle snaked it!

Belle wasn’t home, so I had to search for her. I eventually found her grazing near Candi’s house. And guess what? She lent it to Maple! I continued on to Maple’s house, only to find that Maple was sleeping! All that work, and I couldn’t even complete the task! 😛

On that note, I wrapped up my day in Forest. But I’m not putting away the GameCube game for the month just yet. I’m working on a new video, so I’ll be playing more in the coming days. Not only in Forest, but I’ll also be checking in on my second town of Ohio as well. I haven’t posted an update on my Ohio town in two years! So you can expect an extra blog entry (or two) in the next couple weeks. See you soon!

Today was the first day of the Cherry Blossom Festival, so I headed down to the wishing well to check it out. Animals are eating, drinking, laughing, and dancing…as pink cherry blossoms fall from the sky.

Sydney and Hank sat at one table, Static and Candi sat at the other table, and Belle was the dancing freak this year. 😛

Static was having a good time, and Candi offered me some sandwiches.

In addition to the music at the festival, the regular hourly tunes are also jazzed up a bit. It’s definitely an enjoyable time of year to play the original Animal Crossing. 🙂

When I ran into Emerald, she was sad that she hasn’t been able to catch a snail yet. Poor froggy.

Then, at the town garbage dump, I found myself a toilet! Why would someone put this here? Maybe they wanted to take a dump in the dump.

Sadly, Egbert has already moved out of town. But I met his replacement, and he’s pretty cool too. It’s Cube the penguin; I like how he wears a GameCube shirt.

Genji asked me for a new catchphrase to replace “right here,” so I told him to say “on a bun.”

I was chatting with Baabara on a bridge, and she asked me what I thought about Cube…as Cube was standing right behind me! Was she trying to get me in trouble? 😛 I told her Cube was a nice person.

I hope you all enjoy the festival! It runs through Saturday (April 7th), so check it out for yourself if you can. If you’d like to see an old video of the event, here’s one I recorded three years ago:
