Animal Crossing DS

Paying off my mortgage and upgrading my house, winning two fishing competitions, working at the shop, collecting 80 000 bells in the bank, etc. Also, wishing my router would arrive quicker for online play.

Fucking hell - you've done more than me and I've had the thing for a couple of months now :D

It's the fishing tourney today so I am off in a bit to try and bag myself a big tuna

When you get your friend code post it so we can come and visit. Or at least I can if I can work out how to leave the sodding town :o
 
HOW MANY DINOSAURS YOU AVE THO INNIT?!?!?!

I haven't got a spade yet, and the stupid shop is closed today, so I cna't buy one or sell any of my cool shit, means basically there is fuck all to do apart from the fishing tournament.

Hopefully I'll have my connection sorted by mid week. Then I'll be up for online goodness. Just don't be offended that I've taught one of my neighbours to run round shouting "Fuckaduck!". How do I start this fishing tournament then?

LOL :D One of mine intersperses her conversation with "Hai kitteh" which I taught her to say but which is now becoming really annoying :mad:

To enter the fishing tourney go and talk to the Mayor outside the Town Hall and he'll tell you what to do.

I am in the lead at the moment with a 45 inch/lb whatever bass. Fuckaduck!
 
It's easy though! cast yer line, make sure it lands close-ish to a fishy's mouth, then it will have a few nibbles then the ball thing will go under the water... as soon as it goes under the water PULL IT BACK IN

:D

I tried that - still no fish.:(

This morning I taught Jitters to call people Sugartits. I'm so proud. :D
 
Right you lot.

I managed to visit keithy (:D Sorry I ran off, I couldn't see straight and was mighty confused), now I've worked it out who wants to come over?

I'll be putting in some serious time over the next 5 days or so while paying off my mortgage and seeing how much interest the bank gives (oh and it's Coco's birthday on the 1st...) so um, I'd love to have visitors. Or visit.

One of mine greets me with "cock off". :D


re: fishing
Do you have the sound on? I find it easier to listen for the gulp noise when the fish bite then looking at when it goes under water.



I'm sad the snow is going. I got quite into making snowmen.

I've only managed one perfect snowman :( I'll have another go today though.
 
I caught two fish at last! They were tiddlers though, and then I couldn't catch any more goddammit! I've been playing with the sound off so maybe that's the problem.

My sprog wants to know how you make a snowman please. :)
 
Roll a snowball around until it's at the maximum size, then leave it somewhere. Then, roll another one around until it's slightly smaller than that, then roll it up to the bigger snowball and push it on top. It will bounce up and make a snowman.

Only, this takes ages, and if you don't get the size right (I think - or maybe it's just random) the bloody thing will say "yeah, not quite right, am I". I've only ever managed to get a few which were actual proper snowmen and sent me presents. This year I couldn't be arsed and only made one.
 
Oh, and yes, without sound it must be almost impossible to catch fish. Use headphones or something if you're playing in the loo at work. Not that I would do that of course.

I managed to make one snowman before the snow disappeared yesterday, he was well pissed off! Apparently my snowman making skills weren't good enough for him. He kept banging on about wanting to help a flower growm but I couldn't figure out what to do...
 
If you visit me this evening I will give you a golden shovel. Hows that for an offer? I will be on some time later between 6.30 and 8 if you want to fix a time. :)

Gah! That's so kind, but I don't have my router set up at my new house yet, so I can't go online! Should have it sorted by the end of the week. Thanks though.
 
I don't understand bug catching! i've never even seen a bug, how do I make them appear? My net is useless :(
I'm not too keen on bugs.

Play with the sound on. Sometimes passing a tree something will fly off from the trunk. By then it's too late. If while you're ambling around you keep an eye on the tree trunks and if one looks different face it and wave your net. You might catch a cockroach. They're not very frequent tho. Shaking trees might get you bees (but not if your gate is open as far as I can work out) but they're a bugger to catch unless I'm missing something obvious. Sprint off probably northwards and then grab your net and swing.

I can't be fucked with bugs tbh. :o


Actually probably easier is to go around hitting rocks. You may spot something moving away from the rock once you've smacked it so swap to your net and grab it. Not so hard as it's on the ground and not superquick.

I tend to just go and stomp on them instead :D

I've not been playing much the past few days because I'm poorly and it hurts to sit back (I like to sit back on the sofa when I'm playing, you see). I really should spend some time trying to pay off my stupidly huge mortgage. I've got about 350,000 in the bank, so by the end of the month I'll get a nice chunk of interest I reckon.

Anyone bought turnip seeds on a Sunday yet? I'm yet to have ever seen the person who sells them. I want a red one for Wendell.

And what am I supposed to do with the darned philosophising otter? I need to go back and look over the various guides online I think.

The turnip seller is out and about on Sunday mornings - her name is Jean. :D And I haven't met an philosophising otters! On the plus side Bree finally fucked off with her white furniture, and I am now a fully fledged member of Big Redd's dodgy funiture store. :D
I also found a cocunut last night - hope it grows this time.

I have a red turnip growing at the moment! I don't really know what to do with it though, it hasn't changed physically since I planted it, but don't turnips rot after 6 days? I don't want to lose it, but i'm too scared to pick it!

Water the red turnip daily. Dig it up on Saturday and flog it to Nook. He pays 16,000 for mine.

Oh, and coconuts grow better beside the sea :)
 
Does Nook ever go 24 hours? Do I need a wifi mate in a different timezone? I'd rather just sell the fish than fill my house.


I caught the turnip lady once, as I'm not a before noon person. :(


Anyone see a UFO the other day? Plus there was a bird overhead once which I suspect was Pete. Pelly has a bit of a thing for him. We had a chat in the cafe once...


Oh and pictures. I just got given a picture by the most annoying resident so I'm going to tell them I've lost it. :cool:
