Month: January 2020

When I played on Thursday, I received Mitzi’s goodbye letter in the mail. So long, Mitzi.

While waiting for a balloon present, I spotted this one soaring just inches over the top of the cliff.

Yesterday, I found a new house in town. Mitzi’s replacement is Lucy the pig. Eh, I’m not really a fan. I don’t love Lucy.

The northern lights started appearing at 11 p.m. last night. I took this photo from the bus stop, looking back towards my (castle-shaped) gate.

Except for Punchy (who locked himself out of his house), the outdoor villagers were talking about the Aurora.

I gave Goldie medicine the past two days, and she was all better by today. She thanked me by giving me a Corinthian post.

Punchy asked me to catch a centipede for him, so I went around banging rocks. I was about to give up when one finally came out of the rock by the museum. I took it over to Punchy, and he rewarded me with 532 bells (big surprise). But then he said something I would never, ever, ever agree to!

I posted a new video today called Fun with Snowballs. It includes a bunch of things I’ve tried with snowballs. I dropped them on villagers’ heads, I went bowling for Tiffany, I tried shooting a balloon present onto a snowman, and more. Give it a shot!

I was disappointed tonight when I went into Mitzi’s house to find her all belongings packed up. I like Mitzi, and she’s leaving town far too soon.

Kitty asked me for a plesio skull, and less than a minute later, Monty asked me for a mammoth skull. Two skull seekers in under a minute? What’s going on here? Unfortunately for them, none of today’s fossils were skulls.

I played around with some snowballs, and I bounced one off of Punchy’s head (he was unharmed). I saw that Wendell was in town, so I tried to roll him up into a snowball. But of course, that didn’t work. So I made a snowman without Wendell inside…but at least, Wendell stood behind it.

I felt bad for him, so I picked an orange and gave it to him. In return, he gave me a “coloring Pelly” pattern.

This is what it looks like, in case you haven’t seen it before:

I put up a new ACCF video today, City Folk Moments #8. Please give it a watch if you have the time.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great weekend!

On Monday, I checked on my Guest character for the first time in months. He received a letter from Mom (about gardening), and it contained a very unusual item: It said “not used!”

It looked like a bag of flower seeds, and indeed, that’s what it was. When I planted it, it was some black cosmos. Perhaps because it’s a hybrid flower, it didn’t have a properly named seed bag? Regardless, it’s pretty interesting. I don’t recall Mom sending hybrids in the mail before, let alone any that said “not used.”

Playing as Jeff again, I started to realize that my house is a bit messy.

On Tuesday night, I built a snowman on the river bank. I immediately began taking pictures of it from different locations.

Goldie asked me to make a delivery to Monty, and she sent him a Dutch shirt. Monty hated it, and he said that even his grandmother knits trendier clothes.

On Wednesday night, my previous snowman had slid over one spot (away from the river bank). So I built a new snowman in the spot where the first one originally was. Punchy came up behind it and gave it some ears.

After I stepped away from the game for a while with the snowmen off-screen, I returned to find Tiffany in the river!

Without even trying, I triggered a glitch! The snowman on the river bank (or perhaps both snowmen) apparently interfered with the animals’ walking routines. By walking away and returning repeatedly, some more interesting things happened. This video shows it all.

By tonight, the original snowman had shrunk down to just a tiny little fellow. Oh, and the northern lights were out.

Pascal was in town, so I picked up a scallop to give him. In return, he gave me a keg…and some words of wisdom.

I stopped by Nook ‘n’ Go to take another picture of the aurora.

As I came out of Able Sisters, Puck approached me and gave me a red grid shirt. But since Puck had earlier asked me for some new clothes, I spoke to him again and gave the shirt right back to him. He appreciated it (more than he should have), and he gave me 532 bells.

If you haven’t seen the Animal Crossing Q & A I posted to Youtube this past weekend, here it is. I discuss my towns, villagers, favorites, New Horizons thoughts, and more. Feel free to check it out, and I’ll see you all next time. Never Stop Crossing!
