As soon as I started up the game today, I earned 3,000 Nook Miles for the Active Island Resident achievement: It’s for reaching my 300th day playing the game.
Jolly Redd sent me my wistful painting in the mail, and I quickly whisked it over to the museum. Blathers confirmed that it was the real deal. Even when I’m pretty sure a painting is real, I still get a bit nervous in those first few moments after handing Blathers the art. 😛
Up near the campsite, I ran into C.J. He asked me to catch three big-time fish in a row to complete his seasports challenge. I saw a big fish shadow right there behind him, so I fished it out…and it was a big-time fish, alright! Quite a big deal, in fact: It was my first stringfish!
I ran it over to the museum and made my 2nd donation of the day. Unfortunately, I still need ten more fish. I have not consulted a guide to see what I’m missing, but I have a feeling that many of them are early-day fish (since I rarely play in the morning or early afternoon). I’ll need to work on that in the coming weeks and months.
Anyway, I also caught a sturgeonfish and a dab to complete my fishing challenge. C.J. paid me 15,450 bells for them. I caught a few more fish, grabbed a few fish from storage, and returned to C.J. He informed me that fish can’t throw snowballs. Um… okay? 😕
I sold him four more sturgeon, a pond smelt, a crucian carp, and a koi for 66,840 bells.
In the western part of town, I started removing Candy Cane Lane. Midge came over to talk, and she used her new catchphrase for me.
I shot down a balloon present and learned a DIY recipe for a snowflake wall.
I’m in the early stages of planning a new race for the western part of town. I’m not hosting Friday Night Forest this week, but perhaps I’ll have my new race ready for next week.
My favorite villager is Marina!
One night, I had a dream that you friend-requested me and that I met you in Animal Crossing. I flipped with excitement! I would absolutely LOVE it if my dream could become a reality one day. My friend code is SW-8256-6836-8004 if you or anyone would like to friend-request me. I could sure use a bit more online friends to play with. 🙂
Next time you host Friday Night Forest, do you think you’ll be able to show your Dodo Code for that specific time? I’d like to take part in it and check it out sometime. 🙂
Did you know that if you stare at a fake wistful painting for long enough it blinks?
I have not playing New Horizons as much lately so I have about 7 more days until I get the Active Island Resident achievement. Eating snowflakes must be how the villagers get their source of drinking water.
You should make a video where you ask your subscribers who their favourite villager is and why in a comment, then you react to the comment. Not speak your response but type it in like you do in all your villagers. Heres mine. My favourite villager is Cube. When i watched the february new horizons direct i got back into animal crossing. I decided to visit my city folk town and It was the flea market. I saw this villagers house and the name was cube. I went in thinking he might have a good item to buy. But he was in boxes moving away. I had no memory of him in my town (as it wasnt a developed town) but i saw how cute he was and was upset he was gone. I then decided to look up if he was in new horizons as back then they never said every villager would make it. Then i decided im inviting him to my island. I then realised a few days later i had a letter from him (not the goodbye one) and it was cute saying thanks for a gift. Also before nh came out i realised he was my favourite personality and my favourite species in the game. When nh came out i bought his amiibo card (the first time buying a specific villager amibo card who wasnt franklin as he didnt count as he was a special villager) and then when i got the campsite i invited him and now he lives on my island as my best friend
My favorite villager is a tie between Raymond and Rosie. Looking for both in New Horizons, but I’ve actually had Rosie before in City Folk. She was my bestie, so I would talk to her every time I played. In fact, every time she was in her house, I would check up on her to make sure she wasn’t moving away. But, eventually, she did end up moving away. I tried sending her letters with presents attached to it to get her to stay, but it didn’t work. I was SO bummed out that she left my town. But I was satisfied that I got to spend so much time with her. Hopefully, I can find her again in New Horizons and move her in. Same with Raymond.
My favourite is also Cube. My favourite female villager is Mitzi.
