Jeff's ACCF Blog

I spoke with Jambette tonight, and I really enjoyed our conversation. No, I’m not being sarcastic at all! I enjoyed it because she said she was considering moving out of town!

I told her to go for it…just to be a supportive friend, of course. I’m honestly shocked that she’s considering moving out so soon! It’s only been a month! But I’ll gladly take this turn of events, and I’ll breathe a nice croak sigh of relief.

Boomer asked me to make a delivery to Queenie, and the gift was a tall cactus! Who sends a cactus as a gift? (Other than Janet from The Good Place, of course.) But Queenie actually seemed thrilled with it, and Boomer rewarded me with a citrus carpet.

Antonio was sick with a cold, so I gave him some medicine I had stored in a letter. Get well soon!

Down at the Roost, I told K.K. I was feeling a bit blue. So he played K.K. Chorale for me. Interestingly, that’s the same song he played for me in New Horizons tonight!

When I visited Gabi, she told me she hasn’t cleaned in the corners of her house. So I may find a dust bunny. How appropriate.

Roscoe asked me for some lampy furniture, but I couldn’t find any lamps at the shop, in the recycle bin, or the lost-and-found. I guess he’ll have to get used to being in the dark.

On Monday, I received Hopper’s goodbye letter in the mail.

Yesterday, his replacement moved in. It’s Gabi the rabbit, who was actually one of my starters back in 2008! I’m not a huge fan of Gabi, but she’s certainly not as bad as some villagers I have in Forest right now.

Speaking of those worse villagers, I pitfall’d one of them.

Queenie asked me to visit her house, which is actually a pretty rare thing in this game. I agreed, but she made me schedule a time (5:00). In the meantime, she went home, locked her door, and put up this sign. This is something I don’t see very often!

I ran into Pascal on the southern bridge, and I found a scallop on the beach to give him. But first, he wanted to talk about reading the dictionary.

He then asked for the scallop and gave me a helm in its place…before he jumped into the river and swam away.

Jambette asked me to make a delivery to Queenie, but there was a potential problem: She wanted the delivery done by 5 p.m.! And Queenie wasn’t going to open her door until then…or so I thought.

But I went by Queenie’s house, and fortunately, her door was open early. In fact, it was just barely after 4:30! However, she wouldn’t let me give her the delivery; she was only interested in me visiting. And she kept asking me to touch her furniture.

Once I was done touching everything (ahem), I decided to leave. She asked what I thought of her house, and I told her it was awesome. But she thought I was being sarcastic, and she got mad!

Once I was outside, I re-entered her house to make the delivery. When I told her it was from Jambette, she said she didn’t expect anything too tasteful from her. (After that, I just had to forgive her for getting mad at me.)

Once I finally tracked Jambette down again, she rewarded me with a floral wall.

Today, Queenie sent me a letter, thanking me for visiting yesterday. She attached 500 bells as a gift. Ooh, big spender.

Gabi was outside today, so I didn’t get to see the inside of her house yet. But she was discussing decorating, saying she was conflicted by the battles of angel Gabi and devil Gabi.

I posted a full gameplay video of yesterday’s session, so check it out if you’d like to see a fairly typical session of mine:

See you again soon! Never Stop Crossing!

On Wednesday, I got to see the inside of Jambette’s house now that she’s all unpacked. It actually looks kinda nice…unlike her.

Today, I designed a new pattern for the first time in a long time. In honor of the Cavs making the NBA playoffs for the first time in five years, I made their C logo.

I think it came out pretty good, although it does look a bit stretched out on a shirt. It looks better displayed on the ground, or on a flag. And speaking of flags, I made it my new town flag. It’s on display at the castle gate, near my other Cavs designs I made in previous years.

And yes, I also remembered to save a copy of my new pattern at Able Sisters. When there’s no QR codes or Custom Design Portal like in the newer games, I want to be extra careful not to lose my patterns.

I found Hopper all packed up in boxes this afternoon. He’s on his way out.

Even though Hopper certainly isn’t the worst villager in town, I’m okay with him going. His departure will leave me with just five crankies, which is still a lot, but it’s much better than the 7-8 crankies I’ve had lately. Forest is finally starting to recover from the cranky crisis of 2022-3.

I finally cleaned up my leftover candy that’s been on the ground from Festivale and Bunny Day.

Keep an eye out for a new City Folk Moments video coming soon!
