Strangest AC paranoia?

I used to be afraid of saving letters because once on AC:pG I had a bunch of letters saved when they just disappeared. Just like that with no warning at all. :U
I believe Animal Crossing on Gamecube actually saved letter data as a separate file from the main save data, and if there wasn't room for the data on the memory card in Slot A it would save to the memory card in Slot B (without telling you this) so if you took out the Slot B memory card you wouldn't have the letters. (I'm not completely sure though... I could be wrong)

I get paranoid about turnips. Every sunday when I buy them, I have to sell them as quickly as I can (unless the increasing pattern is on) but it just makes me really nervous. I'm thinking "I want to get my gold turnip badge, but I dont want to gamble and end up at a loss!"

Oh yeah I'm so paranoid about taking a loss with turnips or forgetting about them and letting them spoil that I never buy them at all. I don't like taking chances.
 
I know this isn't current, but I used to be paranoid about Resetti. When I was 7, I played AC:pG and I was so afraid of him I told myself that when I turn 13 (at 7, 13 is like 18 lol) that I would go to Walmart with all my friends and tell them about Resetti and make them take him off the games. I was under the assumption that stores made the games, too.

I hate buying turnips because of this, too. :( Every Sunday I try to talk myself into buying turnips, but I never do. On my first week playing ACNL, I did. I bought a bunch of them and they all ended up rotting because I unintentionally time travelled back.
 
Seeing that rare item on display on an international tortimer island, followed by the loading screen of someone on the other side of the world joining you on the island. The person is kind enough not to immediately flip the switch, but you then notice you do not have enough medals and you'll probably have to spend an entire tour with the person before you do.

Hells yeah. Slight paranoia I guess. :p

I have paranoia of every possible untold disaster befalling my town if I forget to play for a day.
 
I used to have a pretty weird one... in CF There was a dead pixel in the grass in the top-right corner of my town and I was terrified that if I messed with it in anyway something would go hay-wire and corrupt my game.
Not really that unusual for me though I used to have a lot of weird paranoid fears when I was younger. :/
 
- Visiting someones town and worrying that I'll accidentally do something that'll make them mad. So I stick by them at all times so they know they can trust me %100.

- Having people visit your town who act like they're super friendly but things go missing from your town anyway. I've had this done to me many times and they'eve yet to own up to anything.

- My friend always has terrible internet connection and it's so random when it could just cut off on you. Like it could be 5 minutes to half an hour. So I'm having to constantly ask them to save for me.

- An obvious one, but corruption. I've had my game since June 2013 and I'd be devastated if I had start all over again. Defiantly since I seem to have such a hard time collecting items.

- I really wanna be able use bamboo but every single time I think I got it that it don't spread anymore.. it does. So I just refuse use bamboo now unless I know it's being cut.

- Turnips, because I ALWAYS forget I have them and I never get good prices at the Retail. So I don't bother with them anymore.
 
Every single time I'm about to play the game and the loading screen comes up, I cover the screen with my hand until I gain the strength to slowly uncover the screen and continue playing. I have a fear of my game getting corrupted since it happens to, like, everyone. ;-;

So recognizable. :D

And you know the funny thing? I actually quit ACNL for 3 months at one point. When I came back everything was EXACTLY THE SAME! No one had left, I just had a few weeds/flowers more. /omg_bedhair
 
I find myself paranoid when a villager wants to move or once they are in boxes. I always ask if they will regret therir decision. Maybe they will come back again someday. Will they cancel without telling? I always ask that when they ask to move or are moving. I also find myself paranoid that Resetti wants to kill me every time i shut off my game without saving. But that is too creepy for the forums.
 
I always think that if I don't play it for even a day, my favorite villagers will have moved.

On the other hand, I always get paranoid that the villagers I hate will decide they're going to change their mind when they say they're going to move...Like...To purposely annoy me.
 
Game corruption and if O'Hare moved without telling me. I obsessively talk with my villagers for this reason. Haven't lost anyone I care about yet by doing this.
 
Corruption, especially on Animal Crossing: Let's Go To The City, I don't know how many times I got corrupted. One time I lost all Gracie furniture + 9million bells and all Town Renovations (fountain, etc.)
 
Tt too far I put my cartridge in my bros ds but is time is way off too January first once I saw it when loading I immediately shut it off I really hope it didnt save

Whenever I see a periwinkle tee I have Rory flashbacks, that shirt just fills me with hate. You know how sometimes villagers share the outfit they're wearing with each other and it can be a little annoying because they don't look very good in it? Rory moved in on top of some cedar trees I just planted and proceeded to spread his shirt to four villagers almost immediately so literally half my town was wearing them. I had never seen a shirt spread to half the town like that in just a few days, there are rare occasions when say Sterling puts on the corseted shirt Whitney had on and I'm a bit amused and annoyed but I have never seen a shirt spread like some infectious disease. I'm worried it may happen again if I ever get another villager in a periwinkle tee. If I didn't get rid of Rory when I did, he might have taken over the town.

How's that for a strange paranoia that nobody else has? Periwinkle tee, I bet nobody else is worried about animal crossing clothes but that tee is just pure evil to me.

I'm that way with the moldy shirt.
WHY.
IS THERE.
A MOLDY SHIRT!? WHY!?!? It spread to 3 villagers. Yuck!
 
When I dig up holes for fertilizer I'm always really afraid I'm going to accidentally dig up a hybrid.
 
The strangest thing I'm paranoid about is accidentally deleting a letter from a villager who moved out (the moving-out letter). I hate when I do that so I try to save them all at the post office. I need them. They're memories ._.
