Month: November 2022

Goldie’s replacement moved in yesterday, and I couldn’t believe it. It was Hopper the penguin…who is another cranky villager! MY TOWN NOW HAS EIGHT CRANKIES! This is insane! AGGGHHHH!

The others crankies are Apollo, Grizzly, Gaston, Curt, Vladimir, Harry, and Tom. Here’s my full villager list.

Today was harvest festival day, and I found Tortimer in front of town hall. He gave me a knife and fork to use on the special guest of honor, Franklin. 😉

When I visited Curt, I accidentally told him I had a knife and fork for him. However, I wasn’t about to waste my silverware on him. 😛 So I cancelled that, and he was disappointed. However, I was quite happy to disappoint him. 😆

Perhaps I should have given them to him though, because I could have used the hint on where to find Franklin. It took me a whole trip and a half around all of Forest before I finally tracked the turkey down. (I missed him my first time by this spot.)

I gave him the knife and fork, and he gave me a harvest mirror in return.

Tortimer gave me another set of silverware, and I resumed my search. This time around, Franklin didn’t have the best hiding spot.

He rewarded me with a harvest clock. When I found him a third time, he gave me a harvest lamp. I sold the three items for a total of 9,999 bells. I hope you all had a great harvest festival, Turkey Day, and/or Thanksgiving! 🦃

I have now built my bank account balance back up to the 53 million bell mark. As you may remember, I dipped below it when I bought that throne a few weeks back.

I posted a new Youtube Short today, taking a (very) quick look at 11 things you could do in City Folk, but not in New Horizons. Hope you enjoy it!

On Wednesday, I received Goldie’s goodbye letter in the mail. 🙁 I hate to even type that sentence. Oof. I’ll miss her.

And then I saw the empty spot where she lived, right next door to me. If there is one good thing about that spot, it’s that villagers who’ve lived there have mostly lasted a long time. And Goldie was no exception, with a lengthy 3.5 year stay in Forest.

I was looking to change out of my Halloween costume, so I bought a BB shirt at Able Sisters. The cavalier outfit went back into storage.

I gave Curt another dose of medicine Wednesday, and he was all better by today. He thanked me for the help by giving me a shower. 🚿

I found Pascal standing on a bridge today, so I gave him a scallop I had attached to a letter. He told me that eating lobster is like eating a big bug. 😆

He gave me a ship deck (flooring) before diving into the river. Since he started on the upper level of town, I had a chance to watch him go over the waterfall. 🙂

Goldie’s replacement has not moved in yet, but I’m sure I’ll meet him/her next week. Please don’t be another cranky! I will scream if that happens. 😛

Update: I posted an annual slideshow of my best ACCF screenshots today. Here is The 14th Year in Pictures:

I visited Curt today, and I decided to choke him.

Just kidding, of course. He was sick with a cold, and I gave him some medicine. See how nice I am? I gave him medicine and I didn’t choke him! 😛

I shot down a balloon present, and I timed the photo perfectly. Pop!

The gift inside was a modern desk.

At the Roost, I checked out K.K. Slider’s show. He performed Rockin’ K.K. for me.

When Harry moved in recently, I neglected to mention that he was my 7th cranky villager in town! But if anyone else moved out, the odds are it would be a cranky, right? Wrong. And if that wasn’t bad enough, it’s Goldie that’s moving out!

My favorite villager Goldie! 🙁 She’s also the villager who has lived in town longest, since 2019; that’s three and a half years! 🙁 I’m sad to see her go, but I’m sure we will meet again someday.

Her departure will also leave Forest with just one female villager, Queenie! I’m sure this is the most unbalanced any of my towns have ever been.

On a lighter note, I have posted a new City Folk Moments video. I hope you’ll check it out.

See you all next time!
