Naw.. trust me.. I've been on the lookout.. cause when I see I can see it!! I found all 3 Gyroids after it rained no problems.. anyway 2 fossils today so maybe it's picking back up.

I found somebody who had kept all thier codes, so I made a new town on another card, grabbed those 3 and took em to my town. I mean.. if Nintendo isn't going to ratate the passwords anymore what other option was there?

You wouldn't happen to still have those codes, would you?

Hey, do you happen to have a blue table? I'm pretty sure it's the last piece I'm missing on my blue set.

I'll have to check. If I do, I won't be able to send it until Sunday, as I'll be out of town. I've got the strategy guide, so if you list which items you have, or at least how many items you have, I'll be able to tell you if there's anything else you need. Usually there's a number of standard items, then one you can only get from the lottery, and another you can get only from Redd (not counting stuff the townspeople give you) in every furniture series.

It's a man's dream come true when any woman talks about video games or sports

The last letter I got said something like "It looks like you finally picked a direct. Good, stick with it!"

Could I get one of those Big Screen TV codes too, please?

Name: Chris
Town: Tricity

Also, does anyone know of a way to copy your town data to another memory card? Right now my town data is on my brother's card and I've bought my own memory card that I would like to put it on...However when I go to do it the GC memory card manager, it won't allow me to do this. Is there a workaround?

Thanks!

Damn those townspeople!!! I figured I would have enough candy to get all the items, but my supply dwindled before I decided to hide my candy in my letters until I found Jack. Unfortunately, I ran out of candy before I got the bed or the clock. If anybody has duplicates of these items, Scott in Spiketon would appreciate a code for them. He can return the favor by offering a sofa, wallpaper, and maybe something else, I'll have to check.

I had like 30+ pieces of candy.

I got MULTIPLES (like 3-5) of all the items but no bed or dresser.

Can we even trade these with passwords?

My Halloween was kind of crazy. I just started playing a week ago, and I didn't know that you had to have a supply of candy ready for Halloween. I also didn't know where you get a mask from. I also didn't know what happens to you if you have no candy! So I turn on AC at about 7:00 last night before going out. Everyone starts running at me demanding candy! I gave the first guy a locust b/c that's all I had. I figured a bug would be a pretty cool Halloween gift anyway. Nope! He zapped me and ruined my clothes. I walked around like this for a while, getting zapped over and over again. I even got zapped by a guy who'd just moved in, and I hadn't even met him yet. Of all the nerve! It wasn't until I was far far from home that I realized that everytime they zapped me, one of my posessions turned into a jack-in-the-box! I lost like 3 migratory locusts that I would've sold earlier, but Nook had his raffle day on the 31st... (I only had 1 raffle ticket b/c I didn't know how you actually earn raffle tickets). I was terrified that they would turn my shovel, net, etc. into jack-in-the-boxes, too! I was really careful making my way back home. Those pumpkin masks ended up looking REAL scary! I ended up making it home alright without losing any more stuff.

Bright side - My AC Halloween was genuinely scary. I sold my jack-in-the-boxes for 4500 bells!

I actually got the whole set.

I played ith my character and got everything except the bed. Then I helped my sister with her character and she ended up getting like 3-4 beds.


Hahahha......I have the whole theme set up already!

I believe the only unique item is the Angler's Trophy, which you receive as a gift for talking to Tortimer any Sunday this month.
