Here's a little Did You Know: Kapp'n the "turtle" is actually a Kappa, a frog-monkey-turtle creature from Japanese folklore. They're a bit creepy: http://www.scaryforkids.com/kappa/

Well, one of them is leaving....
Kody is leaving on the 18th. Although I kinda liked him, what he said to me when I said he was free to go actually kinda touched me. "It was good knowing you Fub! Don't let me hear you skimping on your training!" Now that I think about it... He made it sound like he was dying..... Last edited by Fubab_107; July 14, 2013 at 07:41:00 PM. |

I got the game right before I left and seemed to make it a good ways in. Many of the other tress are planted and have been harvested, started my first public works project (a bridge) so I'm waiting for that to finish. beyond that got the first bug badge and starting a plot of roses (currently yellow white and red). Got the first expansion almost payed off and then back in debt I go lol.

Picture time! ^^
The Elite Scavenger Hunt Tour is easily one of the best ways to earn quick medals. 16 medals per gold rank. Cat loves his coffee. Funny story with this scorpion. I was talking with Cat at the time about going to visit his town. My eyes were on the computer screen while I was trying to run up to the train station. When I look down, I see a scorpion with its stinger pointed at me...and I had my net out. >_< I ran- and it started chasing me. As soon as I got to the train station area, I had enough distance from myself and the scorpion to turn around and catch it~ Jake and I have the same hairdo...with matching shirts. =w= WE LOVE EMOTIONS! I was walking through town and I looked up randomly to see this: it's my first Golden Slingshot. :3 I recently visited the Aika Village. It's a creepy town with a ton of symbolism to hint at the backstory. The Aika Village mayor speaks in Japanese for the most part, but the residents tend to speak in gibberish. The mayor is Aika with the other 3 residents being Aika, Aika, and Aika. This town alone holds a lot of speculation and I don't think the maker revealed the story she used for it. |

This seems like a good time for me to add you guys all to my 3DS's friend list. I'm going to add every FC that I can find in your profiles right now, because I think the game would be... well, something completely different if we could get together.

The project is currently going very slowly and is probably going to slow down my progress a lot.
If anyone has, you know, spare money then please pop over and donate :3 My Club LOL has opened today, but I'm island farming so I haven't got a chance to visit yet. |

My town is finally down with all the prep and developments I've planned. All I need is more Public Works Projects and maybe the villagers might shut up But now I will freely let people into the town of Florimo, or for English speakers "Flower Meadow." Except YOU. You know who you are AND what you did. Special thanks to Suicune for his help and those perfect oranges which are now healthy grown trees (...for now anyway...)
And just YESTERDAY I got my first Resetti appearance! Oh yes, I feel like I've just really experienced Animal Crossing. |

Yesterday, after clearing up some areas dense with trees, Isabelle announced that my town had reached perfect status! Maintaining shouldn't be too hard, as I can hold off on public works projects and extra trees for fifteen days so that I can keep my status pristine. I also love planting flowers, which only add to town status, so being free to leave those around is great.

I do believe that stereos are not supposed to be in the wall. Like I said, this game is buggy. Quite an interested product. Can I buy it? Yes, tell me more about my New Leaf addiction. The megaphone doesn't always work right. Anyone up for internationalization? All the other photos should be self-explanatory: Last edited by Cat333Pokémon; July 17, 2013 at 07:58:38 PM. |

I have a couple extra pink roses, pink tulips, and 2 extra orange pansies. I'm trying to get blue pansies and blue violets- so if you have any of those, we can trade. Otherwise, you can just drop me a PM of what you'd like.

Today was a pretty eventful day:
First off, my tower was finally built. For those who don't know, the tower is the most expensive project at 726,000 Bells. Secondly, I repaid off my debt but was stupid and now I have a wall being built tommorow instead of an expansion. Today was also the bug-off. I won with a Raja Brooke Butterfly and got 3 things total out of the tournament including the trophy. Also, it was K.K. Sliders first proper visit today and he played K.K. Jongara for me. Pictures soon! |

Dangit Cat, what are you hiding in these things!? These are the best business hours ever. Oooh, floor cake! Shrunk says the punch line first...though he does have a great point for this joke. Found this nice sloppy table in Re-Tail last Saturday. And then a 2nd one on Tuesday. And then a sloppy stereo on Thursday. Three really rare items in a week, I did good. LOLOMGYOW-LOW!!!!!!!11111111. Timmy/Tommy's expression shows the standard reaction to that statement. Last edited by Yoshi648; July 20, 2013 at 03:27:07 PM. |

I missed half the contest, but I managed to turn in a Raja Brooke butterfly and a goliath beetle. I was about to turn in a cyclommatus stag too, BUT IT TURNED 6:00 LITERALLY WHEN HE SAID THE SCORE OF THE GOLIATH BEETLE. Thanks for that. >_>

Seeing Totakeke perform acoustic was amazing. It would've been nice if someone had told me that I can't request the song to take home, but I like K.K. Disco anyway. Still, after that I probably requested K.K. Metal about a thousand times.
My quest for the Triforce isn't going smoothly. Every fortune cookie seems to be filled with Pikmin hats. And not just all of them, only RED Pikmin hats. I have like 4 or 5 now? Are Timmy and Tommy doing this to me on purpose? >:I I've also started a new look for myself, Danny Fenton/Phantom! (It's still NOT an obsession ) I have the pro designs for the shirts and the shoes from Kicks, now all I need are some black and blue pants. Then I'll feel comfortable trying to change my hair. I heard it's difficult to get what you want... |

Picturrrrrz.
Blathers must of had an interesting childhood. Some Gulli-very good puns, here. I have found that my confidence has had that whiff of soup recently. The Able Sisters have found, hunted, and made the rare Cat333 into a hat. How could they? What are you trying to say. Finally managed to pay off my tower, the most expensive project in the game. Huzzah, I win. I was randomly entering houses and it was Yuka's birthday. I completely forgot to get her a present, so I gave her a Metronome I won from the Bug-Off :3 Yuka also learned how to phase Stereo's through her wall (*coughCathadsomethingsomilarcough*) Last edited by Cat333Pokémon; July 21, 2013 at 11:07:03 AM. |

Rant time.
The HHA Showcase is the second most poorly-designed piece of crud in this game (only behind the villager move-in mechanics). Everyone stuffs their houses full of Nintendo junk. (Not like my hideous balloon room is any better; HHA thinks it looks nice, but it's gone once I get all the rewards.) I can't delete the houses I've exhausted of useful items with terrible design. I can only order five items per day, forcing me to come back and actually remember what I ordered and what I didn't. Once school resumes, this will be a pain because I'll also be getting updated houses every 45 minutes. The only saving grace for this ruined feature is the ability to mark houses as favorites, which is useful for tagging which houses still have things of interest--oh wait, that guy just changed his house and removed the items I was interested in. THANKS, USELESS CATALOG AND POORLY-APPLIED FEATURE. >_> Last edited by Cat333Pokémon; July 22, 2013 at 12:21:27 AM. |

Yeah, I do know a lot of folks barely even get StreetPasses, but hey, this system was designed for the Japanese where the typical person gets plenty of StreetPasses, and this part of the game should've been designed a little better for those who do get tons of 'em. I just really want to delete all those Nintendo- and balloon-filled houses. >_>

There's this strange thing about Animal Crossing: New Leaf's audio when you turn on surround sound in the system settings: it works. You can actually hear when things are behind, and separation seems to be more obvious compared to regular stereo. It also kind of spoils that the audio is either sequenced or mixed in at least L-R-RL-RR. (Music premixed in stereo never sounds clear when processed by the Nintendo 3DS's surround sound algorithms, as is the case with playing music in Nintendo 3DS Sound and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, among others..)
By the way, do you think it might be a good idea to spin off a turnip prices thread on the section? Either way, bought 1,000 turnips for... 90,000 Bells in total. I'm holding out for a he- no, a price at least 180 Bells. Last edited by Twiggy; July 22, 2013 at 11:02:15 AM. |

Picture time!
note: I really dislike Klaus. After countless hours I catch one of the two rare, ground-dwelling bugs. One more to go. I manage to convince Camofrog to move to my town... ...and see that his house is in the exact same plot as the late Paula. Fine with me! It minimizes on the amount of mud in town. Club LOL appears to be a gay nightclub. I never knew my town of 10 could be so progressive. You are of poet. If you are going to fill your house with my fish, they are going to be badass ones. A Fiji-style birthday party? Noice. Fabulous as ever. I'LL TELL YOU WHEN I HAD ENOUGH. That'll teach Friga to hold picnics without me... Awaiting the inevitable... Oh I'm sorry was that your cicada? There is nothing quite like one-upping your rival. : ( Rare furniture for 300 Bells? Thank you. Last edited by Cat333Pokémon; July 22, 2013 at 11:43:29 PM. |

The strangest thing happened to me yesterday. I was just shaking trees before 10 AM (The time I allow myself to turn on New Leaf since that's when all the shops open. I want the FULL experience.) when I heard the regular whooshing sound. I thought it was just another balloon item to sell, but it was a container with 3 yellow balloons. Well, obviously it's a gold slingshot... but why? I'm not complaining, it's a gold tool. I was just hoping the shovel would've been my first tool. But all day I kept questioning where the silver slingshot was since I never got it. Then... I honestly just wanted to plunk it in the river. Why did they come out of order? I tried selling it but it doesn't go for very many bells. Anyone want a random silver slingshot? |

So I just dropped 500k for the opportunity to travel to someone else's town and convince Amelia to move to my town. It worked, and I couldn't be happier. She was my favorite villager in the GCN version, and nearly 10 years later it is cool to have her back.

I decided YES, I WILL get my hair did today! And I gotta say, it wasn't half bad. It's white and reminiscent of what Danny Phantom's hair would look like in 3D. I wouldn't expect them to have Butch Hartman's weird design, so it's close enough. Now all I need are black pants. Does anyone have any black pants that I can catalog? And here's a picture of my current Phantom outfit that leads into my next issue. Why did I get ANOTHER silver slingshot!? Honestly, now I have TWO useless things I can't sell. |

I have axes currenly Rotom, although I won't be home for a couple of hours.
Hadn't accessed my town for 5 days prior and I am suprised there wasn't more weeds. WellI managed to get a genuine suprise when visiting the Able Sisters today, I managed to get a mannequin from them! I put my Samus stuff on it and I think it looks pretty nice. |

I've just discovered the joys of being on the island. Well, money-wise anyway. Now I know why so many people suggest it to me. There were just bugs everywhere and a whole lot more sharks than usual. Unfortunately I got back too late and Re-Tail was closed, so I have to sell everything in the morning. Sometimes I wish I had Night Owl so I could make more trips, but then I remind myself I don't like playing at night.
And am I slow? Because I did not know until last night that you can dance at Club LOL. I accidentally tapped a directional pad button and then I stated doing the two-step. The things I learn each day. |

The Dream Suite has just opened! I have to say, even though it costs money and I can't take any items back, I love being able to visit any town whenever I want. And to DESTROY EVERYTHING. It makes me feel more at peace~ And I love how the Danny Phantom shirt goes with the pajamas.
Even though I have a lot of money and I can complete a Public Works Project in a few seconds, I think I liked being broke more. I didn't always have to slug around so many moneybags. I barely have any room for items. I could start giving them out as gifts... |

Also, let me know if anyone needs to catalog the double-neck guitar. Edit: Also, the Japanese can be incredibly generous if you are nice to them. I promised a Japanese person that I would return today to deliver the double-neck guitar (after delivering the rolling suitcase two weeks ago), and she gave me a complete (legitimate) 7-Eleven set and a bunch of Japanese holiday items. (Her reason was that she had 12 sets because of having three copies of the game and three kids, so a total of four characters on three games, for a grand total of 12 characters.)

On the other hand, I didn't buy any this week.

I've been holding off on showing pictures until it's complete, but I'll be sure to try that out.
Also, I finally caught that stupid scorpion last night! The trick is to go very slowly and stop when it hisses, but not too slowly that it finds a body of water or despawns. Moreover, Knox is moving out. If anybody is interested in him, you've got about 17 hours to let me know. Lastly, I think today is the first time I'm up early enough that the new day has started but none have the shops have opened, and my mail hasn't been delivered.

I think there's a glitch involving the fossils, but usually they're just really well hidden.
