I adore this commercial.

All those people who say that technology is ruining our society are WRONG.

Animal Crossing: Gravel Path, Snowy Paver and Earthy Paver QR Codes

Filed under: Animal Crossing,Toys and Games — Laura Moncur @ 8:08 pm

The snow hit my town today and I immediately hated the path in my town. I looked for some new paths to replace them with, but I didn’t like any of them either, so I made my own.

First, I made this Gravel Path.

It was alright, but it looked a little like it was floating on top of things instead of an actual path.

This Earthy Paver is a little better.

It just didn’t work with my new Winter Wonderland, so I created this Snowy Paver and I like it MUCH better.

Now, I have new paths in my town and I can share them with the world so everyone can enjoy them.

If you would like to visit my town, my Dream Address is 4000-2185-7855.

Animal Crossing: Bad Luck Days

Filed under: Animal Crossing,Toys and Games — Laura Moncur @ 1:54 pm

There are some days when you can do everything right and still have bad luck. It’s true in Animal Crossing just as much as it is in real life, but in Animal Crossing, the fortune teller can actually warn you about your impending bad luck.

A visit to Katrina, will start out ominous, so you know right away that it’s a bad luck day.

The Lovely Phone, is more ambiguous, however. It may just say something vaguely unfavorable.

There is little you can do to turn your luck around. If you have the lucky item, you can make yourself about as lucky as a normal day.

If you have your lucky item AND can also wear your Tingle Hood, then you can have a lucky day despite the “misfortune that is attempting to come down on you.”

Arranging the furniture in your house helps, but it really can’t overcome a bad luck day. In Animal Crossing, as in real life, it might be best to just hide in bed on your bad luck days.

Filed under: Animal Crossing,Toys and Games — Laura Moncur @ 8:00 am

I don’t like the mini-game tours on the island. I ONLY do them to earn medals so I can buy the cool stuff from the island shop. The quickest way for me to earn medals is with the Elite Scavenger Tour.
