Last Friday, I did not play New Horizons…at all. That was the first day I’ve completely missed since the game was released nearly three years ago.
On Saturday, I sold my turnips from Lottie’s Island. The Nooklings only paid me 47 bells apiece for them, but they were free, after all. The good news is that I can finally confirm that free turnips from Lottie’s Island do count towards your Nook Miles achievement goals! 😎
On Sunday night, I told K.K. Slider I was feeling grumpy. So he tried to cheer me up with a performance of Go K.K. Rider.
Tonight, I was surprised to see Ankha at the campsite. She was my original GameCube islander, and I’ve always liked her a lot…despite her snooty personality. (She is my favorite snooty.)
In New Leaf, Ankha has visited my campsite at least five times…but my town has been full every single one of those times. Of course, that’s not a problem in New Horizons, with the ability to kick someone out. But you don’t control who leaves. Still, I thought I’d give it a try just to see… and Ankha told me that Hornsby was willing to go!
I like Hornsby, and he’s been my buddy since the GameCube game, schnozzle. 😉 But he’s been in ACNH Forest for almost three years (since April 2020), which is quite a long stay. Not to mention, I still have him in New Leaf too. So even though I don’t like forcing villagers out, this is a rare occurrence where all of my conditions lined up.
So I went to say goodbye to Hornsby. It’s been nice having you around, buddy! Good luck in your new town, wherever that may be!
I’ll be back with another entry once Ankha moves in. Have a great day!
Wow 3 years dang
3 years? Well, THAT’S a lot! Well done, Jeff!
Wow, playing every day for almost 3 years is seriously impressive. And I thought my 11 months was a lot. 😛
I’m curious, what’s the most consecutive days you’ve played in an AC game?
I think I may have gone longer in New Leaf, but I’m not sure of the details. Maybe I mentioned it in my New Leaf blog at some point, but it may be hard to track down.
If I recall correctly, you have Hornsby’s amiibo card, so you can always bring him back.
