Lo No Go

To my surprise, Lopez asked about moving away yesterday. Even though I just said I could let him go now that I have his picture…I couldn’t do it. Not yet, anyway. I told him to stay. 😛

Lopez: That's it, then. Decision made! The Lopez Mystery Tour is postponed indefinitely!
Indefinitely, but not forever.

C.J. was in town, and he asked me to catch three big-time fish in a row. I caught two red snappers and a whale shark to complete the challenge. I grabbed a few fish out of storage, and sold him a total of 115k worth of fish.

C.J.: Oh, you got a whole school for me? All together that'll be... 115,500 bells. Deal?

Today, I was running around town, holding my net, when Hornsby pinged me. I pressed A to talk to him, but instead, I hit him with my net. 😮 He wasn’t mad after just one hit, of course, but the ping was negated. When I spoke with him, it was just the regular conversation prompt. Now I’ll never know what he was trying to tell me.

Gulliver was in town, so I helped him out by fetching his communicator parts. In return, he will be sending me a reward in the mail tomorrow.

Gulliver: Alright, the pieces are crammed back in here.

Tybalt was sick with a cold, so I crafted some medicine for him. He gave me a soft-serve hat to thank me.

Tybalt takes his medicine in Animal Crossing: New Horizons (ACNH).

It also earned me 1,000 Nook Miles for fulfilling my 50th resident request. I don’t know what all counts as a request, because it’s surprising that there have only been 50 of them in 5+ months.

I went diving in the ocean and found a scallop on my 9th dive. Pascal showed up and wondered how you could possibly throw away a garbage can.

Pascal: Where do you throw a garbage can when you want to get rid of it, maaan?
Just put in inside of a bigger garbage can.

He gave me a D.I.Y. recipe for a mermaid bed in exchange for the scallop. I made it and put it in my house.

At Nook’s Cranny, I spent 64,000 bells on an arcade mahjong game for my arcade at the amusement park.

I decided to take inventory of my 50 regular design slots to see how/where they were being used. Here’s the breakdown:

  • Rainbow Road: 22 designs (including Lakitu)
  • Frog Race course: 10 designs
  • AC Cemetery: 5 designs
  • Sudden Valley: 3 designs
  • Amusement park: 2 designs
  • Sumo: 2 designs (includes directional sign by airport)
  • Default designs: 2 (I use one for my flower garden)
  • Town flag: 1 design
  • Apple Lane: 1 design
  • Beware of Sharks sign: 1 design
  • Unused: 1 design

I posted my latest video yesterday, New Horizons Moments #2. It has highlights of the past month or so, plus my ranking of my current villagers. You might be surprised where I ranked Tybalt (I know I surprised myself with that one).

See you all next time!
