I have a question about Retail. Say you have a character with the sloppy series like Benjamin. Are you most likely to get sloppy items in retail vs not having a villager that has them?
 
Why/How often do dream addresses change?
Have had mine a while, update it for the day, and it says I have a new da.

Really annoying since I have mine in my sig pic.

I think it's around 2 months without updating. ~ I had mine change after a little less than 3 months.

Also, your old dream address will still work for a while, so you can keep it in your sig. ~ My alt town was updated but I didn't write down the new DA, but I can still visit it's old August update so I've left it in my sig. ~ need to get round to sorting that actually.

Yes, though I'm not sure it makes much of a difference. I've had a few villagers with sloppy/cardboard series and of the 5 items I've had in re-tail only 1 of them came from a villagers house. But if that villager didn't have that item I'm pretty sure he'd have still chosen that day to put an item up and it would have just been something else ~considering it followed a day where I forced a load of furniture onto him.
 
Regrading moved out villagers that appear in your main street:
Can villagers that you adopt from another persons town appear in your main street when they move out? Or is that only with villagers that move into your town manually.
 
I'm so upset.

A day or two before Christmas, villagers were telling me that Molly was going to me. Naturally, I tracked her down right away so I could demand that she stay. Well, on NONE of the days that I talked to her, which was one or two days before Xmas, the day after Xmas, and the day before yesterday did she ever bring up the fact that she was moving. I simply could not get it out of her even when I'd exhausted the dialogue. I guess I assumed that something about Xmas being an event day changed her moving status. But no... Today I opened my mailbox to find her goodbye letter and picture.

What on earth? Did I do something wrong? Was it inevitable that she was going to move, and the game wouldn't let me stop it? Molly and Freya were the only two villagers I wanted to keep, and I've had Molly since the beginning. Now I feel less inclined to play if that's the punishment for not being an attentive player EVERY single day. :(

Sometimes they will never pin you on command :/
sometimes you need to turn off the game and reload the day to try and force it out of them
that really sucks :/ Freya moved without me realising
 
This is technically a "3DS" question, but how do I remove people from my 3DS friend's list? I have very few spots left due to trades and I need to clear it up a little bit :p

I wish I could go back a few days and have her still be there, but I assume that if that worked, people wouldn't be cycling to try to get villagers back. I've never cycled or anything like that so I don't know how it works.

Was Freya a dreamy for you? I'm sorry. :(

I think I would quit the game for a long while if she left my town too. What is the point if both dreamies are gone? :/

Go to your friend list on the 3DS' home screen, tap on settings and then tap "Delete Friend Card", after that tap on any friend card you want to delete and press yes, of course.
 
Hello, I have a question about patterns.
So I know that if you put a pattern on the ground, then change the pattern in your inventory, it will change on your ground as well. People say a fix to this is making a pattern mule character to store paths on, but I don't really want a character's house just sitting around on my town's map... So if I make a pattern mule, put down paths, then delete the character, will the patterns stay on the ground? Or will they disappear? If they will disappear, is there an alternative to this method?
Thank you!

They'll disappear, unfortunately. There isn't an alternative, either. :c
 
Are there villagers you get only when you start a new village and others just move it? When I started a village a while ago I kept restarting trying to get beardo......

Smugs and Uchis cannot be a starter.
 
I don't know, but if you know that, it can be relatively easy to get the one you want. The next three random move-ins will be of the three types you didn't initially get. So, if number six is an uchi, number seven is a lazy, then number eight has to be a smug. That's the time to do the reset trick among a much smaller pool of potentials.
 
I want to get some dreamie villagers and let people pick up my villagers who are moving away. Can anyone provide me information on what's the best way to send of a villager to someone's town or even a resource/guide would be nice. Thanks. :blush: I'm new when it comes to trading villagers so I'm not sure how it works or what interferes/affects villager trades.

I hear a lot of things, including "reset tricks", but I'm not sure about anything in villager trading. Treat me like a newbie when explaining please because I'm fairly clueless on this topic.

The easiest way is to let them come to your town, and talk to the villager in boxes. That will trigger a prompt, saying something along the lines of "Oh yeah, I've got nowhere to go, blah blah blah...", which then can secure the move-in.

As for the reset trick, I'll find the URL and post it here. http://www.belltreeforums.com/showthread.php?84375-VIDEO-The-Reset-Trick-Video-Tutorial

Thank you, that helps a lot because I was worried that you could only transfer a villager if you talked to them before they packed their boxes. So it's safe to say they can still move away when in boxes, right?

"In boxes" is the only time they can be invited by someone from another town to move to that town. They will move away whether someone adopts them or not. If no one comes to adopt them, they end up in what is referred to as "the void" and might end up moving to the next village you visit through wifi (or if someone visits you).

Once the villager has "pinged" you, told you his/her moving date and you have agreed to let them go, it is actually best not to speak to them again until the boxing day because they might change their mind and stay.
