1.6 Update What happened in your game today?

Yeah, I decided to stick with it, because it sort of matches how I usually name animals. Mopsy and Topsy, or Itty and Bitty. I'm not good with naming animals.
My last litter of kittens were Orlando, Oscar and Orville (although the new owners changed their names...)

Next Monday I picked up Robin's Resource Quest for stone. The alternative was Pierre's quest for quality vegetables, but most of what I have planted is fruit. I'm going to try to collect cheap gold-star vegetables for when the quest comes up again. Pierre isn't the only one who can be cheap...

I had Clint open all my boxes and geodes, found another apple sapling, the Book of Mysteries a few minerals Gunther was looking for. I'm still missing three gems and a prismatic shard. And about a dozen artifacts.

On Tuesday I went to Calico Desert to buy some seeds, give Sandy a daffodil and maybe get a few more rocks for Robin's quest. I also found some iridium ore and omni geodes by panning. I also found a few cactus fruits, and took them home for Sam's birthday.

Wednesday was uneventful - Sam did like his birthday gift, and I had to buy radish seeds at Joja because Pierre is closed. I forgot the QoS rerun again.
On Thursday Sam came to my door to invite me to his concert in Zuzu City, but I forgot - I spent the day looking for geodes while collecting stone for Robin's quest.

Friday was Demetrius' birthday. I gathered the remaining rocks for Robin's quest and then went into the shop to give Demetrius his birthday gift. I walked into Robin's reveal of her hardwood sleep receptacle. Since four posts on a bed are actually a ridiculous waste of my painfully gathered wood, I side with Demetrius. Besides, it's his birthday, I'm not going to let Robin send him to the doghouse on his birthday!!!

Pam had sent me a beer that had apparently been "rolling around in a drawer" - so I gave it back to her at the bus stop. And then realised I needed her to drive us Zuzu City to watch Sam's band.

Didn't see Shane at the bus stop, but he was there at the concert. Jodi and Vincent were there, too, but Kent was not. Also, there was somebody moping at the fence who looked like Kel (Leah's ex).

I had picked "country" for the simple reason I'd never picked it before - so the band was The Alfalfas and the music was sort of twang-y.

Saturday I ran around handing out gifts, picking up my prize ticket item, opening geodes and mystery boxes, getting some stuff to Gunther... Robin sent me a stone chest recipe, so I made one for my kitchen, because I keep forgetting to buy a mini-fridge.
I ran into Lewis and Marnie behind Lewis' truck having a stupid discussion. I told them I'd keep their secret, because there isn't really a good way to tell everyone - I would love to have the option to do that *and* follow up. Write it on the bulletin board or something... :laugh:

Sunday I went to the desert and finally set up a chest next to the door. I filled it with bombs, some food and about 30 staircases I bought so far. I didn't use any of the staircases, but got two lucky shafts (13 and 8 levels respectively), so I got to 25 without problems. I didn't get much lower than that, though, because I'd had a late start.
I forgot Queen of Sauce again. I'm at least 4 recipes behind.

So the Bands name depends on what music they play? I never picked Country before, I can't imagine them playing such music, doesn't seem to fit them. Usually choose experimental rock music, so they're always "Goblin Destroyer"...

Yep. With Pop, they're called "The Pelicans". With dance music they're something that kind of seem like a keyboard smash. I've never picked experimental noise, so it's nice to find out out what they're called then. The Pelicans is also referenced sometimes when Sam is on Ginger Island, that if they switched musical instruments to ukulele, congas and steel drums, they'd be The Pelicans of Paradise...

Oh, I see, ty 😄 That quote I also got from Sam on GI. Could be nice to have them playing a gig on GI, kinda like a real beach party instead of the Luau.

I had dance music in a previous save, and they were something like Xenon Chip 2.0 (or maybe 3.0) - I never got the quote from Sam on GI, I have to look for that. I see him there sometimes with his guitar. (Well, not in my current game, I haven't even finished the CC yet...)

I have a hard time imagining Sebastian or Abigail playing country but I actually really like the honkytonky music track, which is what they play as a country band.

Last week of summer: I forgot Dwarf's birthday, which is annoying. I also fished a while and reached a new level of understanding - so now I have Foraging Mastery. I got leprechaun shoes from a passing train as well.
I planted two mystic trees and finally got a mushroom log. I never check the cave, so maybe having mushrooms out in the open will remind me.
Mr Qi sent me a lot of money for making it to level 25 in the mines. I still have to get to 100, and I have dump beets in the mayor's fridge. And the worst thing is that I know he has *so* many more annoying quests for me lined up!!

On Tuesday nothing much happened. I tried for octopus, which is one of the fish I still need for Summer. After I caught it, I went to the mines and caught an ice pip.
I picked up Gus' omelet quest. Should be able to do it in 14 days. I created some more ancient seeds for my greenhouse.

On Wednesday I brought Willy his birthday present (a diamond) and got treated to his crab-catching cutscene right after. After handing the crabs to Gus, I went to the mines for the lava eel. I caught one, after almost filling my entire backpack with algae and trash. I remembered Queen of Sauce. I'm depending on remembering the reruns, as I'm falling behind.

Thursday was a rainy day. I went into the mines to slay some more slimes. I now need 19 rock crabs and 196 slimes, according to Gil's list at the Adventurers' Guild.

Friday was another rainy day, so I went to the desert and moved down to about level 60 or so in the Skull Cavern. The last floor I hit was a prehistoric floor with a lot of pepper rexes, so after I killed most of them I decided to get out of there while I still had some health left. I had two dino eggs and a rib to take to Gunther, as well as a prismatic shard that I'd found on another floor on the way down. I also picked up more iridium ore than I'd expected.

So Saturday I went to the museum and donated my various items, took care of the farm animals and watered the beets in the greenhouse. I keep forgetting, so it's going to be a while before I can get them into Lewis' fridge. I did remember to make Lewis a bottle of truffle oil - nice and slick, the way he likes it. That's another task off my list.

Sunday I first collected my Junimo plush, watched Queen of Sauce and then went to the desert for the staircases and some bombs, but I didn't go down into the skull cavern. I did put all my bombs, some food, the staircases and a few farm warp totems into the chest in the mines.
I brought Sandy a flower, bought some more starfruit seeds for my greenhouse and chopped down all the trees. I also managed to catch a scorpion carp, so that's one more fish for my collection.

The Moonlight Jellies were lovely as ever. The green jelly stopped to dance right at my feet, which was cute.
