The July Bug-Off was held today, and that was the first thing I did (before even checking my mail). I participated in four rounds, and I scored 7 points, 9 points, 8 points, and then 11 points in my last round. So I actually did worse than I did last month. But my accumulated point total was up to 41, so I was due for a few prizes.
For ten points apiece, Flick gave me a ladybug umbrella, a toy cockroach, a termite mound, and a bug cage. The bug cage isn’t furniture, though; it actually functions like a backpack. The ladybug umbrella is pretty cool, and the termite mound is really tall. This could actually function as a natural-looking pillar in an obstacle course or something. I’m going to keep it in storage just in case I come up with a way to use it in the future.
I then checked my mail, which included my art from Jolly Redd. I took it to the museum, where Blathers informed me that the informative statue is a forgery. It still looks cool though, so I’m hanging onto it anyway.
Later tonight, Rizzo told me that he did pretty well in the Bug-Off. But how do I know if he’s telling the truth? Unlike New Leaf, there’s no ceremony for the winners…and in fact, there are no winners at all. It’s not really even a competition (not even a phony one). So I’ve just decided that Rizzo is lying. 😉
I went diving until I found myself a scallop. Pascal popped up and told me it’s not all about the bells. But this didn’t seem to be a deep discussion about money and life; he seemed to be talking about Animal Crossing: New Horizons specifically!
I posted a new video of game highlights and funny moments today. Here is New Horizons Moments #1:
See you all next time!
