1. I accidentally sold my perfect cherries at the start of the game, not knowing any better. Can I get them back?
2. How do I get the "paths" I've seen in other towns?

If you're plot resetting, is there any part of talking to Isabelle that's safe? Can you talk to her as your mayor as long as you don't get to the Preparing Your Town screen, or do you have to avoid her altogether? I have a ninth villager moving in, but I want to demolish my two secondary characters and I don't know if that will set the plots for good. Also, just wondering if you can change the time without setting the villager in stone.

Until I get an answer, I'm just creating a fourth character. First villager: Rodney. Reset!

Edit: I still would like an answer, but I'm an idiot. A lucky idiot, but an idiot. I decided to risk demolishing the secondaries but got distracted and loaded up the game as one. Luckily, there wasn't a plot at all. Unluckily, that means my plot resetting fun is over for the day.

You can delete a character and continue resetting. So long as you don't begin to load your town you can close the game and keep resetting.
You can change the time via the 3DS system settings safely, but if you change the time with Isabelle it doesn't save the new time until you load your town, which saves the plot so it's only possible with the 3DS system settings.

Deleting a character has a couple of useful side effects ~ trees/bushes planted the day before that would have died can sometimes grow and you'll have a different set of hybrid flowers grow. ~ but if you don't like the new set of dead spots/hybrids you can't go back to how they were previously

You can plant a perfect cherry from someone elses town and they will grow. Or you can keep shaking the cherries off your trees or planting new ones (and maybe use fertilizer, not sure if it helps or not) and there's a chance a perfect cherry will grow.

You can draw your own paths in your designs, (second tab on the touch screen) and then when standing in your town clicking on one of your patterns gives an option to put it on the floor. You then make your path tile by tile like this.
Once you've unlocked the QR machine with Sable you can scan QR codes to get path tiles designed by others too. Or when the snow disappears you can wear down the grass into natural paths by walking the same route often.

Literally the last four times the reset center has been opened, I have had to go through the SCRAMBLE! routine. I would have thought it was only a one-time event. What's going on? I don't TT, except for when I got Sterling into boxes for someone.

I've been asked this question before, whether an item is duped or not when it comes to unorderables and I was wondering if there was a way to tell because I get some unorderables from other people that I decided to sell later on after mistakenly buying two or even just growing tired of it or not finding a space that it fits in.

Any unorderables that I get aren't dupe since I collect them myself, but when it comes to one I got from someone else I don't know. I don't really know how duping works and don't care to know, but I don't know how to answer this question if there's a way to tell. :X

There is no way to tell a duped item from its original. Duping provides an exact copy of the item so there is no way to know.

So when people ask me that, should I just let them know that I got it from someone else? I just wanted to know so I wouldn't get in trouble. ; w;

I suppose it's up to you. If you have a suspicion the item might be duped and feel like letting the potential buyer know you can. I don't see how you'd get in trouble for selling something that may or may not be duped. Duping isn't allowed on this forum anyway.
Lots of items have the potential for being a copy. I don't see any issue with mentioning or not mentioning it. ^^

 

[Party Poison]

I know it's not allowed here, but I still get asked this question sometimes xD Thank you.

Hi ^^ A few weeks ago I accidentally let Kyle move out of my town Is there any way to get him back? Would it work if I adopted him from a friend's town? Thank you in advance!

You have to move out 16 villagers after him before he will offer to move back to your town. Sorry

Aw, that's really sad but at least there IS a way to get him back *-*! Thanks for your reply ^^

Does Save and Continue kill the "you've been playing too long" messages? I'm doing the PWP diving trick, but I'm afraid of getting to the point where I'm frozen out until one of my villagers can warn me to take a break, and I'm hoping Save and Continue resets whatever countdown governs that.

I just dug up a rare mushroom, do these only appear in perfect towns and can all i do is sell it?

 

[Grishiu]

Does anyone have a link to a complete list of igloo/tent camper items? The ones I've found don't include Fish Grill and I wonder if I'm missing any other ones.

It's snowing. Should I still water my wilted plants?

Rare mushrooms only appear in perfect towns. Selling it is really all you can do. Pretty sure you can get 16,000 from retail. They don't do much else.

Rain and snow is supposed to water your flowers. I have seen others mention that even with the rain/snow they lost their wilted flowers the following day. So if they are flowers you really don't want to loose it couldn't hurt to water them just in case. ^^

I tried searching for this, but came out SOL.


Does anyone know how long it generally takes for a villager to ping so that they'll move out? Poppy recently moved out on the 8th, after having my town for 10 days. Someone is reserving Phoebe for me, so she'll be my 10th again. I was wondering if it's generally another couple of weeks before someone pings me to ask to move out again? I really want to get all my villagers out except my dreamies. I only have two I care for.. and a bunch of ones I really dislike and can't even stand looking at. I hate even talking to them.;.;

It varies a bit. A villager should want to move every 5 days or so. They could ask sooner. I had a villager ping me about moving the day after I told someone to stay. And I have had a solid 5 days before anyone mentioned moving. They should ask soon. ^^

Oh okay awesome Thanks

Also I do have a villager, and I'm contemplating keeping her. She was one of my first villagers. If I tell her no, will it cycle to someone new and I'll have to wait around the same time for the next animal to ping?
