Daily Tasks && Open Days (&&About Special Visitors + Gulliver!)

Animal Crossing, like any simulation game, requires skill in multi-tasking, as
there are so many different aspects to the game that should not be ignored.
It may be helpful to list tasks that should be performed on a daily basis, but
the very first thing that you should do on any day is to determine whether it
is an ‘Open Day’ or not.
.
.
What Is An Open Dayy??
.
An Open Day is a day when a random Special Visitor may appear in your Town.
Weekend days are not Open Days, as you will have Lyle and K.K. Slider in town
on Saturdays and Joan in town on Sunday mornings. You cannot have more than
one Special Visitor in Town at any given time. Provided that you have
scheduled Redd’s appearance in your Village through Lyle, you will have one
weekday that is not an Open Day, and that will be the day that Redd is
scheduled to appear. Apart from these days, all other weekdays
constitute ‘Open Days’, which means that they are days when Dr. Shrunk,
Katrina, Gracie, Gulliver, Pascal, Saharah or Wendell may appear.
.
It is possible that Wild World operates on a weekly basis and that in fact,
all Special Visitors are ‘loaded’ into the game on Saturday morning which is
the same time that you are given the option of deciding upon the day for
Redd’s visit for the next week. Two random Special Visitors therefore would
be ‘loaded’ into the game before the start of the week.
.
Of all these Special visitors, it is only Gulliver that poses any problem, as
his appearance is a very brief one, consisting solely of the moment when his
UFO flies across the top screen of your DS. I therefore recommend a simple
process of elimination on each ‘Open Day’ to determine whether there is any
chance of seeing Gulliver. Do this by searching for any other Special
Visitors.
.
The easiest Special Visitors to find are Gracie, Katrina and Pascal. Go first
to the Plaza in front of the Town Hall to discover if either Gracie or Katrina
are in your town. If you see neither Gracie’s automobile nor Katrina’s tent,
you can eliminate them from the list. Next, go to the beach and search the
entire length of the shore for Pascal. If you do not find him, you can cross
another Special Visitor from the list. Now you will be obliged to search your
entire town for Dr. Shrunk, Saharah and Wendell. If you find any one of these
Visitors, you will be able to cross Gulliver from your list. If none of these
Visitors are to be found, you may wish to watch the heavens carefully for
Gulliver’s UFO.
.
Gulliver’s appearances DO follow a schedule whenever he appears in your Town.
If you turn on your DS at 6.00 a.m., you find no other special visitors in
your town and Gulliver is scheduled to appear, you will see him fly across the
sky before 6.40 a.m.
Obviously, he can appear on any ‘Open Day’, but if it is Friday and you still
have not had two random Special Visitors and you find no one else in your town
that day, Gulliver WILL appear!
.
You will have two random Special Visitors in your town each week. Redd and
K.K. Slider are NOT random visitors in this sense.
.
You can go to your Town Gate to ask Booker if he is aware of anything ‘new’,
as he will mention the presence of most of the Special Visitors that come to
your town. I prefer not to do this as you may miss Gulliver if he is due to
appear. You can miss floating gifts if you enter a building and in the same
way, you can miss a chance to shoot down Gulliver’s UFO. The real problem is
that it takes over a minute to enter and exit a building. If, as you are
entering a building, you see Gulliver’s UFO in the sky, you will find that he
has gone by the time you are able to exit. It is better, therefore, to search
for any Special Visitors yourself. You can destroy any new weeds at the same
time, thus fulfilling that task for the day. Incidentally, Booker cannot
predict Gulliver’s appearance, nor will he even recognise Gulliver’s presence
when he and his UFO are on the ground in your village!
.
N.B. Bear in mind the ‘glitch’ in Wild World that sometimes prevents you from
seeing an Animal or Visitor on the screen sometimes even when that Animal or
character is present. If you find no one, you may wish to save, quit and
reload your game (without meddling with the clock at all). There are days
when no Special Visitor comes, but if you are concerned about missing a
Visitor, it does not hurt to save, quit and reload once in order to make
certain that no Special Visitor is present in your town.
.
After searching for any Special Visitors, you can perform your other daily
tasks:
.
1. Go to your postbox for any letters that have arrived;
2. Pay attention to the time!
a. gifts float across the sky randomly at specific times of the day between
8.04 a.m. and 3.54 p.m.; be aware of those times; all of the times end in the
digit 4 (although I never have seen one before 10.04 a.m.); and
b. Turnip prices change at noon, so make certain that you ask Tom for the
price of Turnips both before and after noon; and
c. Some special Visitors to your town, like Joan, only will be found from
6.00 a.m. to noon. Joan is only in your village on Sundays, but Pascal will
be found on a spit of land at the beach on a random morning so it is important
to visit the beach before noon if possible.
d. Certain varieties of fish and insects can be caught only at certain
times of the day; if you are trying to complete your Insect or Fish
Collection, make certain that you are aware of any special conditions with
respect to time, season or weather; all fish and insect information is listed
in the appropriate section of this guide.
3. Go to Tom Nook’s shop to see all the new items; if any item that is being
offered is missing from your Catalogue, buy it; while there, ask for the
Stalk market update.
4. Go to the Able Sisters’ shop to see all the new items; if any item that is
being offered is missing from your Catalogue, buy it; speak to Sable if you
wish to hear more of the fascinating history of the Able sisters.
5. Gather all foreign fruit from the trees and sell it to Tom Nook;
6. Walk through the entire village, including the shore of the sea to see if
any special visitors are present, after speaking to Booker at the Chequepoint
for any news;
7. Make certain that you speak to as many Animals as possible; at least wave
to an Animal if you do not wish to speak to him/her.
8. Write letters to every Animal at least once every two days, and attach a
gift to each letter;
9. Be aware of weather conditions; if it is raining or snowing, try to catch
a Coelacanth fish.
10. Shake any trees for bells, fruit or furniture; with respect to native
fruit, shake it from the trees even if you do not want to collect it
immediately; once you shake the tree, you allow more fruit to grow; it is best
to shake a tree as soon as fruit appears for maximum harvest yield;
11. Gather all seashells and sell them to Tom Nook, even if they are not
particularly valuable; otherwise, use the least valuable as gifts to attach to
letters; there is a better chance that more valuable shells will wash ashore
if you have collected all shells;
12. Search the Recycling Bin for items; sometimes you can find rare and
valuable items there!
13. Visit Animals in their homes if possible; if any Animal in your village
is ill, he/she will be housebound and you will need to bring medicine. I
think that the quicker you discover that an Animal is ill and administer
medicine, the sooner that Animal will recover. An Animal can require up to a
week’s worth of medicine on occasion.
14. Read the Birthday Calendar to see if it is the Birthday of any Animal in
your village. If so, visit the Birthday Animal at home and bring him/her a
gift;
15. Hit all Rocks with your shovel to find the ‘Money’ rock for the day; you
can gain as much as 4500 Bells from this rock if you are quick.
.
N.B. Once you have amassed a fair quantity of Bells in your Savings Account
and have upgraded your house to the maximum size, your priorities may change.
For example, you may not wish to harvest your fruit as quickly as possible.
Fruit on a tree will not rot. Fruit on the ground will not rot either, but
it does occupy space and it will not allow you to have a ‘Perfect Town’. If
you do not need the money from the fruit harvests, simply leave the fruit on
the tree.

OMG! You type so fast too! It was only like… 5 min…. !!!!!

Ahaa XD

I don’t type dat fast…!

haha i type rly fast but i got use to this keyboard on my laptop so i cnt type that well on computer keyboards..

im actually dumb at the rly obvious things and i look back at it like “I SEE WHERE I MADE MY MISTAKE!!” i done that in a few tests before.
i turned down an offer to go new york just to get this laptop. before, it was my DREAM to have a laptop of my own! i know that sounds kinda weird and easy to get but my parents wouldnt let me have one before. I would have been able to go new york trip with school (30 people got chosen, including me!) and i turned it down bc id rather have a laptop. It costed £900 to go anyway ($1800 in Usa) and including £300 spending money ($600) then thats £1200 ($2400)!!

U would go into the catagory of “MAD!”
lol i think

i really am. but not like a physcc or anything.. just weird mad. people call me weird bc i dont like pizza or chocolate.. not everyone likes the same thing. when i see something gross, they prob like it but i dont but i wonder why everyone has different like and dislikes bc everyone thinks whatever they like is the best! lol

I really don’t like chocolate either… but pizza is my fave food!

i like chocolate with caramel or mint
NOOTT DARK CHOCOLATE THOUGH
white choc is my fave..
milk chco is alright but sickly..
i class that as me not liking chocolate (bc its sickly and i get tired of it) so my friend bought everyone else MASSIVE boxes of biscuits and got me something different.. bless her!
