Marriage Notes [Fish Route]
[Updated 4 Nov 2024]

GENERAL
- Fish = 300G
- Start with 300G, so need 19 fish
- That's 10 days of fishing (9 days of 2x fish, 1 day of 1x fish)
- If you get a lucky 3-fish day, you can improvise
- Probably want to chop at least 3 stumps on each fishing day
- The rest could be chopped between the farm and P-chan day
- You want to be ahead on chopping so you can buy the house upgrade as soon as you have 5000G
	> That's 16 fish, so 8 days of fishing after the Ellen spam day
	> 4 stumps per day for each "normal" fishing day = 32 stumps, plus the 2 from the Ellen spam day = 34 stumps
	> So you need 8 more stumps. Probably route them in on the Ellen spam day and P-chan, maybe 4 and 4
- Can't fish during P-chan, so this is strictly a wood-cutting day
	> The more you chop on P-chan day, the more leeway you have during fishing days; you can chop fewer stumps and have more time to fish
	> Chopping more stumps means more fatigue animations, however

NOTES
- Spring 1: Intros
	> Livestock dealer
	> Ann
	> Eve
	> Maria
	> Nina
	> Flower lady
- Spring 2:
	> Get axe, chop stump outside shed (1)
	> Spam Ellen x25
	> At mountain, pop in and out of carpenter's
	> Chop x3, fish x1 (4)
- Spring 3:
	> Can't fish because P-chan today
	> Chop x6 (10)
	> Talk to P-chan
- Do 8 reps of chop x4, fish x2, on non-rainy days
	> On the 8th rep, order the house upgrade on your way up the mountain
- Exit house on the next day to pay for upgrade, then do one more rep of fish x2
- On the next non-rainy Sunday after house is finished, buy the Blue Feather
- On the next non-rainy Saturday, propose to Ellen

MISCELLANEOUS
- For a safer but slower wood-cutting route, cut none on the spam day, and cut 10 on P-chan day
- It might be faster to sell the final 2 fish to the Peddler directly, but I'm not sure
