Ok so I guess this game has A LOT more to it then I thought through looking through these boards.

So I have a few questions:

1.What is Villager Auctioning/Trading and that stuff (How does it work?)

2.What is so great about Turnips?Like why are they such a big deal?

3. How do people make so much money? Like I thought it was awesome when I had 10k? (Still struggling to pay off my house loan from building it)

4. What is this cycling thing ? I am so confused by what it is and by that I mean how it works?

5. Oh and I just got this guy in my town I don't like at all can I get rid of him? I mean none of my villagers are that awesome from looking at all the ones you can get but this guy I really don't like.

(the only villager I like in my town is Ricky haha)
Like any general help would be great to :D Feel free to PM me or whatever I just think it would be fun to really get the ropes of this game

1. Villager Trading/Auctioning is done by posting on the Villager Trading Plaza, with a tag of Trading or Auction. When a deal has been reached, the receiver goes to the other's town, talks to that villager, who is in boxes, and selects the first option of the prompt given.
2. Turnips can turn a huge profit, and with such a large community, there's virtually no risk, and it's very profitable when bought in bulk. Some even fill up a locker (180 spaces!)
3. Variety of ways. I get mine from the Re-Tail board here. Others get it by "beetle farming", and others use turnips.
4. Cycling is where one has a town, and TTs day by day until someone is in boxes, which they announce, and then either raffle, or first come first serve. It's usually free.
5. If the only person you like is Ricky, treat him like Ricky! That'll make you move up a "friendship ladder". Get to the top, and he's bound to leave!

(some people may call you a Jake. impersonator. He also likes Ricky, and has a similar username as yours xP)

Ok thanks a bunch so much for all the help but I now have a few questions on your answers , if that is ok :)

What is Beetle Farming?

And what do you mean treat him like Ricky and he will move up the friendship ladder and leave...? Sorry if I sound very dumb right now but I really do appreciate the help :)
 
So if I want him to leave I have to be nice and if I want Ricky & Eugene to stay I have to be mean? Sorry this is just really confusing to me :)
 
Pretty much. But you have more control, because if you say no, it's guaranteed they'll stay.
 
Ok I guess I was wrong in complaining about him multiple time to Isabelle then to try and get rid of him haha thanks for all the help

Exactly when does HHA mail you the stuff you order from the showcase? Initially, I assumed it came with the 5PM mail, when Pete makes his rounds, and usually when I order stuff off the Nook's catalog, I can TT to 5PM to get my stuff, but that doesn't seem to work with the HHS orders.

So then I assumed it was one of those things that required you to go a day forward in time, so I decided to just wait 'til tomorrow (I generally only TT within the day, unless it's for something specific), but because I was out all day today and hadn't had a chance to play much, I decided to just do-over the day and turned the clock back to 11AM, and this time, my HHA mail appeared, even though a day hadn't technically passed.

Maybe I just recounted my steps incorrectly or something, because I thought all mail comes by 5PM; but long question short - when does HHA mail you the things you order from the HHS?

I think it's 12pm. Unconfirmed.
 
This happened a while ago, but I only recently just decided to ask a question about it here (since I kept forgetting too oops Dx)!

It was Toy Day in my town, and I knew pretty much what every villager wanted. If I made a mistake, before I made the mistake I would save, then power off if I got it wrong then open up my game again and try again. I only did this a couple of times because I mixed up presents between Gala and Mira. When I spoke to Jingle, I did get the festive wreath from him. The next day, when I went onto my game (I didn't TT or anything), my mailbox was empty. I didn't have a single letter from Jingle with his picture. Why is this? I only had 8 or 9 villagers at the time I believe... Do you have to have 10 villagers and get every single one of them right? I'm really confused and rather annoyed about it... ._.

I had 9 villagers and I got Jingle's picture, so I don't think that's it. I also don't think the game would punish you for the number of villagers you had. As for what the problem could be, I have no clue :(
 
How do I know how many visitors I had in order to unlock the train station upgrade or can you only see that as the upgrade is sugested?

The number of visitors you've had should be at the end of the information scroll you get when you sit down in front of your town tree.
 
You can only do it after a certain number of days have passed. Maybe 50? If you can't sit down now, try again.
 
Can you plant bamboo shoots along the river? I'm guessing they die, but I just want to double check. ^_^
