Oh I've got that in the Gamecube version. You have to do some cleaning, but as in real life, who can be bothered?

Well i'm a newbie to the whole AC world, but I read somewhere that if you catch bugs and stuff in a net you sell them to Tom Nook just like fish. I just bought my first shovel. Ooooh.

Or alternatively you can stomp on them and they turn into little Poe-like ghost shapes. They'll be there again when you come back again though, but it's quite satisfying if you're feeling MEAN

Oh my! The mayor just asked me if me (a boy) had a crush on Roald (the male penguin)! He so fancies me.

The mayor asked me (a girl) if I had a crush on bella (a girl) the gayness is ok for you I'm not so sure I want to be attracting women.
Also how the hell do you catch fish? It really is driving me mad- tom's closed today so i don't think much progress will be made.

I love how the same events go on in everyone's game (provided they have the right time and date set). I managed to catch a few fish, but can't seem to do it anymore. I am having lots of fun though! Friga (girl penguin) wants me as well.
I just got a new bigger house with a pink roof! I have ordered a wifi usb connector for my computer so I can let people come into my town and visit me!

The Bright lights thing is getting on my nerves. "Who's house looks the best?" They all look the fucking same!! Have you seen this site: www.animalcrossingcommunity.com/

I'm with you on the whose house looks best boring shite. Sheez, leave me alone. I'm a bit disappointed I didn't get to put up lights. As to my roof colour, I fucked up and chose grey. perlease! Re: fishing, you have to cast your rod and then wait until you hear the water plop, that's when you reel them in, not when they first nibble, they tease! Sable spoke to me today so I am feeling a bit chuffed.

I was reading about the WiFi connection. Apparently people who visit your town can steal anything lying around, i.e. flowers and your furniture. Also they can cut down trees. What happens is, you both have to choose to save for the changes to take effect. But if if you don't notice what the person coming into your town is doing you can save it without noticing he's cut down all your trees or stollen all your flowers (like there are any flowers left in my town though, I had to sell them all to pay off the mortgage!).

Fucking Tom Nook! 120,000 Bells to make my house slightly bigger! I know he's just remodelled his shop and everything, but that's ridiculous. I hope the game's climax is a mob lynching of Tom Nook!

I thought so too- we're obviously going about the same pace. I've got two characters running in an attempt to make more money- I'm not convinced this works.

We have 3 characters at the mo, as I am playing it with my twins. I keep hoping to find they'll have paid off loads of my mortgage and so on, but when I switch on I find that Dylan has spent all day drinking coffee, buying flamboyant clothes and ignoring Tom. Sigh. Why do people keep wanting to move? What's that about? Should we care? Should we try to stop them from leaving?

I'm glad the influx of immigrants into my town, Chigwell has ended. Every day a new resident was moving in! And thank fuck that the bloody Bright Nights are over. Ribbot is gay as well. He told me he ws thinking about muscles. I think him and Roald might want to roast me.

My fucking turnips died! I forgot to water them ONCE. ONCE. Are Nintendo holding me to ransom or something? "You must play this game every single day or we will kill your lovingly nurtured vegetables"?

I haven't even managed to buy any yet. I have had a coconut tree die on me. Is there a rule as to how often you are meant to water then? How many tips of the can etc?

Ah! I should have planted that coconut I found! I sold it to the Nook.
Does anyone else make them say obscene things when they ask you for a new greeting?

No idea - all of my coconut trees have died as well. Theory: my house is built on an Indian burial ground. I am so suing Tom Nook for everything he's got.

Does anyone else nick all the flowers other residents have outside their house. My garden is beautiful!

I either put them in my own garden or sell them
I had Redd arrive yesterday and frankly I was less than impressed by his wears.

Most of it's forged, as well. And if you've got insurance with that weasel, he only gives you a pittance in return.

Hurrah! My Non-Nintendo USB Wifi thing arrived and after much fiddling around with IP addresses, and inadvertently trying to break into my neighbour's wifi network, I managed to get it to work. I just had a Michelle visit me and I visisted her town which had orange trees and stuff!

I've been playing this since Christmas Day. I'm excited about the seasons changing as it means I might finally get some new fish and bugs, am sick of the same things over and over again (especially bloody sea bass).
Am on my final house now, 900,000 mortgage. That Nook must be a multi-billionaire by now.

Someone please tell me what a fucking "candy gingham" is? Curly has been asking us for one for ages and we are clueless. Also, what's the deal with the "spotlight product"? Is it meant to be good, does it do anything special? Aaaand...I have yet to hit a thing in the sky with my slingshot, any tips?
