Not a lot going on in Cheese today. Nook is buying turnips for 72 bells, my animals are all content and didn’t ask me to do anything (although Margie wanted me to deliver a letter). Bunnie wants me to get a moustache for reasons that can only be evil. She’s a strange rabbit.
Haven’t spent that long on this over the weekend, mainly as Frogger got in the way (who’d have thought that, eh?). Played it for about an hour this evening, mainly just entering and closing the Oblivion Gate outside of Leyawiin. I almost found the “wrong” gate too, as it seemed there were fahzands of them just east of the city. Anyway. It was a pretty long slog through this one, and I completely missed out a tower that I was …
Oh, this isn’t like Burnout at all, is it? It looks exactly the same, only with licenced cars. Played a race, which was pretty dull (no actual Burnouting or Takedowns), and then played a mode where you have to escape from the police, smash through roadblocks and stuff. It was pretty good fun, but the roadblocks seem to be positioned randomly and you appear to have to find them, rather than them just be where you’re driving to anyway. Overall, …
With Skijumptoes leapfrogging (ha!) some people on the leaderboard, and Mike Mentalist close behind him, I was pressed to increase my lead again. And I did – 14880 points to the second place 12,000-ish. Powaz to me.
MAXIMUM TURNIPAGE!!!! I spent over 1,250,000 bells on 95-a-time turnips today. That, well, loads of them. Fahsands. I’ve dumped them all on “hard” ground, filling outside my house, outside Nook’s, outside the museum, and loads of the ground outside the town hall. Aces. Now I just hope I can sell them at a profit… Frobert asked me today if we could buy matching gym clothes and walk around together. Then he touched my bottom.
We also played this. It seems that in 4-player mode you get some extra rounds not available in the 2-player game, which was a little confusing. Unfortunately for my co-players, I won this too. Sorry, and everything. My prize was Tokyo. Yes, all of it.
Played this round a friends’ house. It was the first time I’d played in four player mode, and it is a bit more frantic with more on you on the buzzers. I was losing after the first two rounds, but the last few rounds completely turned the tables and I ended up winning. My prize? A desert island!
Played this for a bit. Having already looked at Beginner and Intermediate, I attempted Hard and then Insane. And oh yes, they’re a bit hard, aren’t they? Did really, really poorly on both (although strangely, I performed better on Insane).
Started again from Level 1, only this time on Yellow Belt difficulty. Managed to get the 4x Multiplier achievement, and also improved my score to well over 15,000,000 points (putting me up by about 5 places on my friends list). Got the difficulty up to 198% too, but then died. I need 200% for the next belt, you see. Bah.
More online play in this, and I now have all bar three of the achievements unlocked. Still remaining are the Bluff, Win 10 4-player games and Win 40 games ones, which I think will come eventually with time.
Improved on my high score even further today, which is just as well as a couple of people on my friends list were inching closer. I’m now at just over 13,000, which should hold off my nearest competitor (SomethingWitty) at 10,000-ish for a while. Had a few more goes online in Coop mode, and the lag was awful again so gave up. Did manage to unlock the Chicken 2 achievement, though, as well as another one for completing Level 4.
Didn’t have a lot to do in Cheese today, aside from a bit of weeding and some animal visiting. Checked turnip prices just to be completist, and Nook was offering 111 bells. Glad I sold up yesterday, then! Also dug up a few gyroids and fossils, and sold them. Every bell helps for the turnip purchasing tomorrow…
I jumped between them quite a bit, so I’m lumping them all together here. I played Frogger a bit more, and got another achievement, but didn’t improve my score. I played Uno a lot and got a few achievements there (and actually won an online game), and also played Mutant Storm Reloaded and improved my score, but didn’t get any more achievements.
I managed to get a few more achievements on this today, played online in two-player for a bit (although online mode is horrendously laggy and effectively broken as a result), and rose to the top of my friend’s list leaderboard with just over 10,000 points. I am clearly BESTEST.
Hurrah! Turnips were being bought for 348 bells today in Cheese, which is great price. Made about a million bells profit as a result. My wife came over to sell too (she’d not sold them all yesterday), as did a couple of WFC visitors. Aside from all the selling, I visited my animals, and also caught a couple of fish. Looks like rainy season has finally stopped, as the sun was out today, and there were gyroids a-plenty!
