Museum

Now with links so that I can be organized about completing my museum, and know more clearly about what I have & don’t have donated. Because part of my problem is that I’ll catch something, or see something at Redd’s, and just not realize that I haven’t donated it yet.

Fossils: Complete!

Insects: I still need the rice grasshopper, bell cricket, bagworm, fly, house centipede, & scorpion

Fish: I still need the soft-shelled turtle, salmon, king salmon, mitten crab, gar, sea butterfly, blowfish, football fish, & tuna

Deep-sea creatures: I still need the flatworm, sweet shrimp, spiny lobster, red king crab, spotted garden eel, & horseshoe crab

Art: I still need the mystic statue (Nefertiti bust), robust statue (Discus-thrower Greek statue), & flowery painting (Sunflowers by Van Gogh).

WiFi Information

Just a heads up, I’m not the biggest WiFier in the world, especially now that the game has been out for so long. I don’t open my gates randomly, but if we arrange a meeting (which is more likely if we’ve gotten to know each other somewhat), here is my information:

Friend Codes

  • 3711-7632-8989 ~ This is my preferred FC to add, for my black capture card 3DS.
  • 4270-7116-9824 ~ This is a capture card 3DS as well, but unlike the one above, it requires screen-recording software to be running.
  • 0233-2558-0068 ~ FC for my Galaxy New 3DS XL. It can only take screenshots through L+R.
  • 3222-6062-4806 ~ My original FC, for my Animal Crossing 3DS XL that I got on June 9, 2013. I no longer use this 3DS for WiFi so please don’t add this FC. If you have it added from the past, you may want to remove it.

Town Rules

Before coming to my town, I’d appreciate if you read the following so that we’re on the same page on what you can and can’t do in my town. Most of this is just common courtesy, but some people do have different rules about what’s acceptable in their towns, so imo it’s just best to make these things clear.

  • Please don’t run in my town, unless it’s on the paths. But if you don’t know my paths well you could easily run over a flower, so I’d prefer if you don’t run at all. You can of course go off the paths (in fact, I’d be disappointed if you only stayed on the paths, since I do quite a bit of landscaping off of them), but please walk when you do so.
  • Please don’t do purposeful damage to my town, which includes cutting down trees, running over flowers, digging up bushes/stumps, taking things on the ground without permission, etc. If you do something on accident, though, I’ll understand!
  • You can take fruit and buy from my shops — I might prefer if you ask or let me know first, just so I’m aware.
  • You don’t have to ask permission to visit my houses and the villagers, explore the town, talk to the villagers, go to the museum, fish and catch bugs, or dig up fossils and gyroids you might find.
  • At times it feels like there’s only so much to do during WiFi, so definitely feel free to let me know what you would like to do — for example, if you want to just hang out and look around town, or if you want (or don’t want) to go to the island. I know some people don’t like doing island tours, so I wouldn’t want to force that on you as an activity if you don’t enjoy it. 🙂

      • Hi! I came across your blog when I was looking up ideas for a forest-themed town. I viseted your town in a dream, and I really like it! I’m going to make my own town forest/moon themed, and I was wondering if you have any advice for me, such as how to get dirt paths, get characters off to a good start, landscaping, etc. Thank you so much! My name’s Katie and my FC is 5215-1423-0999, maybe we can do a wifi once my town is complete! (‘.’)/

        • Hi, thank you very much, glad you liked it! 🙂 Sounds like a neat theme! I recommend bordering where you want dirt paths to go with flowers/bushes/trees as a deterrent from going off the path, and/or adding qr-code paths at first and then picking them up when grasswear starts to wear a path down underneath the patterns. As for getting characters off to a good start, it mostly just takes lots of bell-saving — all those expansions can get expensive! And being diligent in checking Nook’s Homes daily for needed house parts. With landscaping I recommend just following your heart and what you want out of your town (as cheesy as it sounds) and don’t be afraid to try new ideas, you can always get rid of them later if they don’t work out. For me it was just lots of hard work, trial and error, and brainstorming ^^ Good luck with your town and I’m sorry for the late response!! I’ll add you now, mine’s 3222-6062-4806 🙂

          • I added you as well.

            In the past few months since I’ve posted that, I’ve changed my theme that I want to go with. I’d like to make it desserts/sweets themed. I’m going to delete my new town and start over. I think It’ll be fun to start fresh! 🙂

            Thank you for the great advice. I actually bought action replay powersaves the other day, so I think I’m all set for bells!

            I followed you on Miiverse also. I’m Gallifrey17.

            Sorry for the late reply!

            P.S. If you want to contact me, comment on one of my Miiverse posts. I’m not on the internet often.

            Once again, thank you for the advice! 🙂

  1. Are you free right now? I can open my gate – my sister’s visiting atm, but she can join us if you don’t mind!

  2. Hi, Amy! ^ ^ I never did get your Friend Code when I sort of tagged along during the Wi-Fi in Shantaki, and I know your FC is plainly stated up there, but it’s pointless to just take it without asking. 🙂 Would you like to swap Friend Codes? Mine is: 1564-2275-8567. 😀

    • Sure, I’d love to! I was wondering the same, if we should add each other. 😛 I’ll add you, and mine is 3222-6062-4806 🙂

  3. Hi! I’m Jasper from the town of Windfall! I saw your comment about my town in Cassidy’s blog post, thanks for the nice words! I was wondering if you would like to add each other as friends! My friend code is 2766-8135-6647. I don’t have a blog, sorry about that!

    • Hey! Sure, I’d love to add you! My FC is 3222-6062-4806 🙂
      I’m sorry about the comment confusion; I have my settings set so that comments by first-time commenters go through moderation first (so I have to approve them first, and then afterwards comments by that author don’t have to be approved anymore). I wish I didn’t have to do this, but I’ve had a few comments that I wish didn’t go through before — mean/trollish comments and such.
      Anyway, thanks for checking out my blog, I look forward to WiFing sometime! ^_^

  4. I would love to be friend with you 🙂
    Could you send a private message to my tumblr blog, so we could talk? (Don’t really know how to write you private messages on your blog 😦
    It’s: Lukusen.tumblr.com
    I don’t want to give my friend code freely so everyone could see it, so I would send it to you per private then:)
    I’m still fairly new to AC:NL (I’ve only played WW before :), but I would really like to visit your town or you could visit mine 🙂

    Hope it works 🙂

  5. Hi! Thanks for visiting Windfall! I’m so sorry about that communication error, I have no idea what happened! Even though we had a communication error, it was still fun to have you and Cassidy visit! Enjoy the new K.K. Slider songs! I hoped you enjoyed your visit!

    • Thanks so much for having me over, and for the K.K. songs and cap! It’s okay, those errors just seem to happen sometimes (or often times -_-). I had a great time exploring your town! 😀 It’s beautifully landscaped and already has a lot of cool projects!

  6. I want to ask a question if you don`t mind.. I might be getting AC:NL soon and I have absolutely no idea what sort of feel\theme it should have. Any ideas??

    • I recommend browsing the community projects available in New Leaf, picking out your favorite ones, and seeing if there’s a specific theme that would best connect the different projects you want. For example, I was drawn to the fairy-tale community projects, so I’m doing a theme/feel based on that. You can also always just decorate your town like… a town. Just having lots of trees and flowers, maybe some paths, and fitting in community projects that you like.

  7. Hi Amy! I’ve had your Regal series furniture items for a while now, but I haven’t seen you online in a while. When would be a good time to WiFi?

    • Hi! I’m sorry about that! Shall I look for your gates today, or do you want me to open mine? Or do you want to set up a time for a later date (whatever works for you)? 🙂

      • Hi! I can open my gates today at any time! I’ll open my gates when you want me to, just tell me when you would like to come by using the Best Friend System!

  8. Hi Amy!
    Today my dreamsuit was ready and I visited your awesome town. At first I met Fern and I was – not shocked – I was surprised to see that she say “Danke!”. 😀 I guess it’s a nice detail. Than I saw the other houses and they are all really beautiful. Actually I prefer every bathroom! And I like it on your town that you have not so much path. On your blog it looks like (sometimes) that you have a little bit too much, but in real it’s pure beautiful. I shot a loot of pictures and at least I read the chronicle of your town and as a souvenier I choosed your Moon-Pattern. 🙂
    I guess I will visit you a lot, in future! 😀

    • Aww, thanks so much Sophie, this comment made me happy! 🙂 I’m glad you liked it! I’m sorry that my dream town is a little out of date right now. I don’t like the current yellow-ish grass much, so I’ve been reluctant to update it and overwrite the dark green grass that’s in my dream town. But I think I’ve made enough changes/additions for it to be worth updating soon, despite the yellow-ish grass color not being to my taste. Feel free to let me know your dream address as well, if you want to (but you don’t have to), and I can visit yours as well ^_^

      • Amy! You’re everytime too nice to me! 😀 It would be great to share my DC with you, but I guess I will more work on it and to follow my goals. And when the grass is green, I will send you my Code!
        And I totally hate the yellow grass! In Wild World it was the prettiest time in year and in New Leaf it sounds so dead and makes me sad. But the trees looks nice and matches very well with my perfect peaches (I’m so jealous you got the perfect apple!)
        So, yes! I will let you know when I’m ready and you can take a look at my town. 🙂

        • I look forward to it! 😀 Yeah, I almost felt guilty and embarrassed giving out my dream code so early on, when there was hardly anything to see in my town, so I can understand wanting to wait a bit. Good luck with meeting your goals in AC:NL!
          I have mixed feelings about this season when it comes to Animal Crossing because I usually design my towns with green grass in mind, and then Fall comes along and everything clashes with the new grass colors. But hopefully everything will turn to oranges and reds soon, that should be pretty!
          I love the perfect golden peaches, that would’ve been my second choice for town fruit! Alternating between perfect golden peaches and regular pink peaches would make very pretty rows of trees. 🙂

  9. Wow! Your town is amazing O_O I especially love what you did/are doing with Estel’s house and garden area (HOT SPRING!) After reading your blog posts I’m sooooo excited to see your next Dream Suite update! I’d post my Dream Address here if you wanted to visit but I have to get a few more flowers first D;

    • Thanks so much for this sweet comment! x3 I’ve had a lot of fun making the entrance to Estel’s house fancier and fancier 😛 I’ll try to update my dream address sometime in the near future!
      Thanks for following! I just followed your blog as well and I look forward to watching the progress of each of your towns, and maybe visiting your Dream Addresses in the future as well 😀

        • I love your town so much! Its so creative! Here’s my FC: 0619-5412-4167 IDK if I already posted something like this but oh well! I hope I can visit some of your wonderful towns soon!

  10. I just visited your town a few hours ago and I love what your doing with it! 😀 Everything looks wonderful! I especially love Estel’s entrance (like Marina/Mira) and the Town Hall entrance 😀 I probably like it because I can never hybrid lilies X) But keep up the great work!
    -Katie/Blaire

  11. So um, I recently restarted my town. Made me sad, but I hated Aedial’s layout. I’d like to wifi with you soon Amy, we never did have the chance to. I’ll be on for well, most of the winter break, so just let me know when your free!

    • I’m sorry about that, I’m sure it was a tough decision but that it will pay off when you get your new town started and make it even better than the old one. 🙂 And sure! I feel bad about never getting the chance to WiFi months ago. I’ll be free for much of winter break as well, except for the next two days I’ll be visiting family out of town. But other than that, I’m available!
