Stalk Market

AM: 123 Bells
PM: 74 Bells

I think I like that there’s variance in the prices…we’ll see.

I’m also keeping an eye on Jisuna village this week:
AM: 84 Bells

Public Service Announcement

It’s been 90 days since I started playing Animal Crossing New Leaf and blogging about it each and every day with only a few hiccups here and there. Doing both takes up a lot of time as I’ve whined about before. So, unless I receive a great outcry against it, or a bribe of bells or dollars ;), I’m going to slow down my blogging to three days a week. I intend to blog Tuesday, Thursday and one weekend day TBD. I will continue to post on twitter and in facebook groups whenever I post here, so if you want to know when I post, best follow me on twitter: @sosostris.

Badge Master

The badge master showed up north of my house and I made a bee line for him. He gave me the “shopping mania” silver badge.

I kept talking to him and he didn’t give me anything, but after a little while I tracked him down again and he gave me the “kind person” silver badge.

BINGO!

It only took all the snow daddies I had in town today, but I finally got a bingo. As a reward I got a slalom gate. I want the snow machine!

Festivale

I’m still eagerly awaiting Festivale/Carnivale/whatever the hell you want to call the holiday with the dancing peacock. Still no headdress, but I got the shirt in my store today and Kokuto generously donated the pants, so you can see what the boy version of the outfit looks like. I like the dress better.

It seems that for festivale there will be feathers floating around the village and you have to catch them with the net. Pave will request 3 of a certain color and when you hand them over you’ll get a piece of the furniture. Apparently you can trade with villagers for different colors. There’s something to do with a rainbow feather as well, but I don’t quite know what the deal is with that. Obviously I’ll find out Monday.

Villager Antics

I have no idea how my letter writing campaign is going. Two of my residents sent me presents. Sometimes they tell me I’m writing them weird crap that they don’t understand. I’m curious if when you write unintelligible letters your friendship can go down. I hope not.

Speaking of letters, I got one from mom today. She heard my house had gotten huge! So she sent me a vacuum cleaner. Gee thanks.

Kaizo’s Corner

I haven’t remade much lately.

I’m turning it green.

Guides

Kinokuniya had the guide by Nintendo Dream in stock last night and I couldn’t help but buy it. The cover is sparkly and I have a weakness for shiny things. Yeah, it has mostly the same stuff in it as the other one, but the counterfeits are much easier to see in this guide, and the villagers are in alphabetical order rather than by species, which for me is easier even though I still haven’t gotten my あいうえお order down in Japanese…and it may just be me, but I can understand it a little better than the other one.

People were complaining online about it being hard to read and way heavy—it is way heavy as it is 623 pages plus a little pull out checklist. They also complain that you can’t scan the QR codes in it (it has several patterns in it). I haven’t tried yet. I don’t have space for them.

Kokuto thought I was nuts buying a second guide until I reminded him that I actually read those damn things while my manga sits on the bookshelf alone and unread.
