Yahhh You get stuck with a Ranch that you don't get to choose... It is like the best of all three though, as it is near the town, mine district and a beach... You get a barn and a coop at the start which is good, but they barley hold any animals (My barn is full with 1 Sheep and 2 Cows >_<) and Upgrading it is super expensive when you compare it to ToT... Lol it has been hit by the Recession too!

WHAT!!!!?!?!? Only one to chose,well thats not really chosing. And hmmmm maybe thing will change in the english game. I hope.

They are pulling and IoH with the expensive barn upgrade

well its not like thats the only house you can have... you can buy from multiple vacation homes too.

Yeah but you dont really get to pick a stratgy like ocean=fishing and well your family wont go to the other houses. So it would be only you.

The building upgrades are challenging, but not impossible. If you set aside one day for material gathering and have a few Bravo Drinks (which is the only thing I recommend for regaining stamina, it's cheap and replenishes 100%), you can easily collect all the lumber/stone you need for the first house upgrade. Raising money is what takes more effort, but even that is achievable within a short time frame if you grow lots of crops, forage everything you can, and don't spend it on other things.

wich day I'm on? I don't know because I go more to fogu than here.
about your question is not hard to make friends if you know that they like example:

GAHHH NOOO WAY!!! I forgot to buy food for people I like... I have been giving them random berry's I find >_< The only propblem is that it is super expensive...

I am now on the purple bell and it is about summer 11th (Another Summer Mix seed became corn and gave me perfect corn on level 2 soil while I was spending fortunes on firtilizing one spot so it gave me good corn, which it didn't >_<) And I currently have 9 Villagers on 2 hearts and 2 on 3 hearts so I think I will be done for fall! I know Thymes shop is double the price, but does it have all the seeds Marimbia farm has without needing to level up, because I want some Bluemist seeds so I can be a hero!

^Wow Blah just Berries no wonder you dont have friends (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

Does the P2 trick work well?

^ I feel it is slightly un-noticable, but if you use it on someone who cant be talked to for ages like the godess it would make a big diffrence.

hmmm a good way to get easy money is to go to the water cave and upgrade your rucksack because you can get a lot of items!! go everyday to the water cave and then when you get the amount of money that you want then stop going because the cave is time consuming so I did that. or wait till Fall and grow a lot of the blue mist flower they are super expensive!!!!! good luck if you need something else just ask also go to fogu they have a really good guide that can be helpfull to you.

EDIT: Thyme at first has more items than the marimba farm but if you get the upgrade you can buy the blue mist seeds at a more razonalbe price check the guide in fogu for more information

I would appreciate not sending people to other people's guides in my own topic kthx >____>

These are the crops I recommend for profits:
Spring - Lettuce
Summer - Melons
Fall - Blue Mist Flower
Winter - Buckwheat

They all grow fairly quickly and sell for the highest price.
I wouldn't strongly recommend mining too much if you're trying to save up money, because of the toll it takes on stamina and how expensive appraisals are (it's a gamble... more often than not you will lose money that way)

Also, if you have a full barn, full chicken coop with silkworms, etc. It might be easier to get the high rankings with Dairy shipments... the required numbers are lower, and the rewards are much, much better (giant mountain of shortcakes ftw)

I know so bukcwheat sells for a high price the melons, and the lettuce oh and the blue mist flower!!! thanks!! a lot nurse fin BTW do you have all the clothes for the female char? I want to see them!!!! and how do I get the accesory for the lolita dress black and red?

I haven't gotten ALLLL of the clothes yet, but I will eventually. And when I do, I'll make a picture database.

You can get the lolita headresses from the New Years Festival.

thanks Nurse Fin you are the best!!!!!

That'd be awesome. ^^ I've seen bits and pieces of the clothing, but I've been wondering what all the female outfits look like.

Whats a 'lotila head dress' and is it a special item?

It's something like what this person's wearing:

Lol the clothes angle is aimed more at girls >_< The boys clothes are quite boring...
