1.1            Guide Introduction
=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=

Howdy everyone and welcome to my guide. This is just a simple guide which
focuses on birthdays. It does have a little character information as well. I
will keep it updated and refreshed to make sure it stays as accurate as
possible.

=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=
1.2            Game Introduction
=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=

Harvest Moon: More Friends of Mineral Town is the female version of Friends of
Mineral Town. In it you play a female instead of a male and court the local
boys as well. It's pretty much the same game with a few new additions and of
course the XX gender flare.

1.3            Author Introduction
=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=

As stated in the top of the guide, my name (or rather nickname) is Usagi. I'm
a 20 year old female living in New York City. I'm a huge Harvest Moon fan and
this is my second attempt at writing a guide for any of the games.

                       with his mother and sister and is very protective of
                       them, most likely due to the fact that Rod, his father,
                       left town to help his wife.

                       and grumpy because he feels his grandfather doesn't
                       respect him or his hard work. He also loves going to the
                       library.

                       speak. It takes a while to get him out of his shell but

                       this he is very involved in his work and it will take a

                       a drunkie or alcoholic. Karen is a girl with a romantic
                       sense of style: fine wine, food meals, candles and long
                       walks on the beach. For some odd reason, she is your
                       rival for Rick.

                       after her father, Basil, very much and has dreams of
                       writing her own book. She is your rival for Gray.

-------------------------------------------------------------------- 7.0 FAQ -



If for some reason you actually have questions after fully reading this guide,
e-mail me.

Q. What is an alternate birthday?

A. At the beginning of the game you have the choice of inputting your own birth
   day. If, by any chance, you picked the same day as one of the bachelors the
   game gives you an alternate birthday to give him gifts.

Q. It's so-and-so's birthday but I don't have a gift they would like, what do
   I do?

A. Well, as a tip you should always shop or collect the gift you want to give
   someone at least two days in advance. But if you didn't grab some honey
   and get it gift wrapped. You can never go wrong with honey. If it's a girl
   then you may be able to use a flower depending on who she is.

Q. Do birthdays show up on the calendar in your house?

A. Nope, sorry.
