ok thanks for answering .

 

[civilian]

I don't believe so, no. One of you will need to have nine or fewer villagers to trade. Mayor A (9 villagers) will visit Mayor B (10 villagers) and adopt first.

Well that sucks big time. Thanks for the reply.

He's in my town but I don't have a dc, I'll get a pic soon. But in the meantime maybe check the AC wiki?

They've got the Wild World and City Folk versions. They're a little different. I'll look for your pic.

Can you sell collectibles back to the shop or do you have to sell them on the Marketplace? (crappy question ik)

Unsure of this, but I don't think so.

Restoring furniture to its original colors still counts towards the badge, correct?

 

[yourlilemogirl]

I have a HUGE problem, Wolfgang, one of my longtime dreamies has decided to go into boxes during a TT'ing mishape cuz of my birthday :c

Now, My 2nd cart has 9 villagers, and I want to invite him over there for holding til I can one day get him back to my main town. However, I haven't touched my 2nd cart in a LONG time, and it's date is still in JANUARY!

If I were to change the time on my brother's 3DS to the month/day/time of my 2nd town, will I be able to avoid another TT'ing mishap? Will my town's time change? Or will it be safe to boot up?

I really dont want to have to tirelessly TT day by day in my 2nd cart to the actual real time of the year just for this, considering I have work tonight >_<)

helllllp???

edit: ok i solved my own problem with a little experimenting. If I changed the time on my brother's 3DS, it shot me back to Nov. 2013 <.<) so, if I kept it the same time as IRL (since my own 3DS was also set to IRL time) it'd stay Jan 18th 2014 in my own. Wolfgang safely stored in backup town, PHEW!

If anyone's got too much time in their hands, can they organize this list from A-Z? (and take out the numbers?)
Thanks!

Restoring furniture to its original colors still counts towards the badge, correct?

No one seems to be quite sure on this. I personally don't see why it wouldn't since you're paying for it. However, most people tend to find the cardboard box item and refurbish it over and over as it is the cheapest (10 bells), if you're just interested in getting the badge quickly.

Like switching between the apple and orange versions? That's a good idea!

Like switching between the apple and orange versions? That's a good idea!

Yes, I believe so. c:

 

[Maude]

I have noticed there's a list of popular/wanted villagers. Is there a list of rare/ highly desired items? Like things that may be in my store that I may not want but others might? I am still quite new to the game and was wondering because I know some stationary is offered as rare and I had elegant stationary today, it is more expensive but is it rare? I don't mind letting folks come by and get things like this but just don't know if anyone even wants it so would feel silly making a thread in Train-station if it's something everyone has already ^_^

Pretty much the rare items are the things you can't re-order from the catalog, and/or items that are exclusive to specific reasons (like japan only items, korea only items etc)

 

[Ettienne]

Okay, here's a question for you time travelers out there:

Robin tells me she's moving on the 9th. Later, not sure how much time elapsed here, I decide to order an item. I roll back the clock and hour so I can receive it in the mail today. Then I roll the time back to normal. Will this affect Robin's decision to move?

I don't think so, but I'd like another take on the matter.

Just nice I was about to ask sth similar about time-travelling backwards when a villager wants to move. Time travelling backwards counts as a day (regardless of how long; not sure abt the few hours only-kind). Using your scenario, I would like to know if Robin will move on the 9th still, or do we have to count by the days left.

Well, so far I know that she is still moving. I talked with Rolf after returning to the normal hour and he mentioned a rumor about her leaving. Tomorrow I'll speak with her and see if it's the 9th still. I highly believe it is, since I didn't go past 6:00am into the previous day.

 

[Galactan]

I considered making a separate thread for this, but for now, I'll leave it here.

Why is Marshal so popular? What makes him so great?

 

[Cou]

I never play island tour/games except when I play with someone/wifi. Before I used to visit my friends and we play tour games and they have a lot of options (balloon/hide-and-seek) and those other fun games. But today my friend visited and I only have little games. So does that mean I have to keep playing and unlock the games? Or does it depend on the time? How much do I play before I can unlock the other games? :[ Thank you.

Try the search function. You'll find several threads with the same question and I believe you can get plenty of answers there. These questions usually don't bode well so it's better if you look for answers yourself from older threads (and believe me, there are a lot). Good luck! o uo/

I don't think so, but I'd like another take on the matter.

As long as you didn't go past the 6am mark, it doesn't count. Time traveling backwards within a day doesn't count as one day forward. This doesn't affect her decision to move at all. I've done this multiple times before (I had a trading thread where I order a lot of stuff and never leave a day to receive mail)--as long as they have confirmed they are moving, then they are moving. Even if they don't confirm but there are rumors that they're moving, they'll still move out anyway.

Hope this helps! o wo/

I don't know the threshold, but you have to play a certain number of tours before the list starts getting longer. It can jump up to full-length as you watch. In my third town, I hadn't done many tours, but I was looking for a certain butterfly. I played several tours, and the list was suddenly full.

You probably know this, but you won't always see the balloon tours even when you have a full list. The list changes every day.
