Didn’t have a lot of time to play this today, but managed to make about 80,000 bells from fruit selling anyway. Talked to a few animals and watered my red turnip, but didn’t sell my white turnips as Nook was only offering 43 bells each for them. So, that’s 22 weeks of playing, and in that time Tim Miller’s “best price on Thursday or Friday!” theory has been correct ONCE. That’s a 4.5% success rate, Tim. Even if it were …
I’m officially a thief! I’m in the guild and everything! I was told the Grey Fox would be at the waterfront at midnight, so I went to meet him – as did two other people. It wasn’t him who arrived, but an underling. The three of us were issued a challenge – steal some bloke’s book before midnight the next night. We had to talk to beggars for more information. And, of course, all the beggars had vanished. I chased …
And today’s Brain Age is… 24! A bit disappointing, but still better than I was expecting after I seemed to take about an hour doing the Connect Maze task, and stumbled (but didn’t fall) on the Calculations x20. Did another sudoku too, in about 10 and a half minutes.
Didn’t have much in the way of fruit to sell today, but I didn’t mind as I was going over to Skye to see Talisker and sell all my turnips for 574 bells each! Except, I couldn’t connect. So no turnips sold today (especially since I was only offered 67 each in Cheese – rubbish!). Had a chat with some of my animals instead, and then bought everything at Nook’s again, as well as water my red turnip. Kaitlin’s kitten …
20!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BEST. Oh, and I did a few sudoku too. And I unlocked “Triangle Math(s)” too, which was a bit confusing at first, but I think I have it sussed now. The house party game, however, is too hard. FACT.
Sold about 100,000 bells worth of fruit today, which was surprising as I didn’t expect there to be that much around to actually pick. I couldn’t be bothered with it all either, so some is lying on the ground at the moment. Did all the usual stuff – watered my red turnip, talked to the animals, cleaned out Nook’s (only 1,200 points to go before I’m a gold member), and avoided selling my white turnips for the rubbish (but better …
After making a million more potions (I’m Journeyman of Alchemy now – yay!), and breaking into someone’s basement to steal all their food, I decided to return to Imperial City to pursue the Grey Fox. As I left Bruma, I found the horse Martin was riding previously, so I nicked it. Well, technically I didn’t steal it as such, as it was a Weynon Priory horse and it was free for the taking. But anyway. So off I rode to …
Nothing new unlocked today, which is a little disappointing as I’ve been playing for about two weeks now and there’s still three “games” locked on the select screen. Maybe I’m not doing well enough? Today’s Brain Age was 23. Better than yesterday’s 25, but still not as good as 20, eh? Did a couple of sudoku puzzles as well today. I seemed to complete one of them really quickly, but in fact it took just over 13 minutes – my …
Most of my fruit had grown back today, so I went and sold it all. That made me about 120,000 bells, and I got another 20,000 from fossils and a few bits of furniture that animals gave me for talking to them and from balloon presents. Some of this money went on cleaning Nook out again. Pierce has moved out, not that I care as he was rubbish anyway. Nan the Goat from my wife’s town moved in, however. My …
I played the first level for a bit to try and get a bit higher up my friends-list leaderboard. I managed it, getting a time of about 15.5 seconds, but the leaderboards are completely messed up and make no sense at all. I’m ranked higher than some of the people I’m lower than, and have worse times than some of those I’m higher than. Also tried to get the Easter Egg on one of the levels where it’s floating about …
Just a quick go to pop over to see Lyzzy and swap paintings with her. Someone called Myrtle was in her town too, and so the painting-swapped was complicated a little more as she added them all to her catalogue.
After yesterday’s TRIUMPHANT Brain Age of 20, there was nowhere else for my immense brain to go. Except down. And lo, 25 was today’s age. OK, so it’s still good, and better than my real age, but I’m a little unhappy with it. However, I quite impressed with myself for getting my second fastest ever time for Calculations x100 – only I did it on newly-unlocked Hard Mode instead of the usual one. I am BEST. Except for the age …
Turnips were a rubbish 93 bells today (so if I’d sold them, I would have made a huge 1 bell-per-turnip profit). I had no fruit to harvest either, having harvested the lot yesterday and Saturday. As a result, money made today was a bit on the low side. Visited Talisker in Skye for a bit, and Red (and Redd) was there too. Didn’t have a lot to do there though, and as someone tried to join the game crashed. Tch.
My wife came over to Cheese briefly to add Lyzzy’s paintings to her catalogue and talk to the animals. I dug up some more gyroids (which I couldn’t physically put in my house, so had to get rid of some furniture) and two more fossils, both of which I already had. Fossils seen a bit thin on (or rather, in) the ground at the moment. Also sent some letters to some of my animals, to try and be “best friends” …
20! BEST! EVAR!! Even though Dr. Kahunamatata (or whatever his name is) almost caused me to smash my DS by telling me it was 72, before explaining he’d made a mistake. I hate him.
