The Resetting Thread

This thread is to talk about resetting and the woes of it.

If you need someone to hold your stuff, it would be better to go to the train station thread.
 
How many millions saved bells do you guys think should be enough when resetting a town? I have 20 or so million but I'm not sure if I should turnip some more or start my journey now.

I'm considering resetting cus my stupid town has rocks in the WORST places and my river makes for very cramped PWPs :mad:
I've got my lil sis available to hold my dreamies and items so at least those wouldnt be a problem
 
It's done.
I've finally resetted my town.
A friend of mine from another forum has been holding my unorderables, my bells and a dreamie.
Tomorrow (now it's 12.30pm) I'll start looking for a good town map. This could take me ages, since I've actually loved the layout of my past town. Fingers crossed! :)

I think 20mil should be enough, personally. That's enough for two fully upgraded houses and a pretty large number of PWPs. Or almost 3 fully upgraded houses, since you don't start off with very many PWPs available to build in a new town anyway.

Here is a guide to rock placement around the permanent structures that may be helpful~
 
Aaah thank you! Now my stupid rocks finally make sense LOL. Upon further consideration I won't reset my town but I'll still cycle some villagers whom I failed to plot reset properly so as to make my town more open to PWPs and meadows
-_-

Yeeeaaahh, rocks are bound to be inconveniently placed almost no matter what map you choose. The challenge is trying to work around them.

Best of luck with renovating your town!
 
My town map looks like this, though this is an old picture so there are additional things in it. I just feel like there's no space, and my town is a giant mess x_x also I miss having to move villagers in and out ever since I got all my dreamies. Thinking of resetting but I want to keep some of my stuff.

I like how all the main shops on in a row on top. Ideally for me, i wouldn't let my villagers be so spread out, but you said you had all your dreamies. So it's really up to you if you want to reset. Is it really that unbearable?

I wouldn't mind loosing them, in fact if I do plan to reset I'd give my dreamies away since I've become pretty neutral about what villagers I get now since I've had my dreamies for so long. My only problem is the long process of having to move my stuff with another person, and whether they have the patience and whatnot. x_x
 
Should I reset my town ? ;A;

I just realised how much of a nuisance my town layout is, and all of my villagers have moved in really bad places.
There are only about 2 villagers I'd want to keep, and have only done 1 PWP. But I've also done 1/4 of my paths.
My house is in an awful place, too, and there's not enough space to fulfill my plans.
But I feel like I've come across quite far, in a way, and it'd be troubling to go through resetting for the perfect town, then doing everything again.
There aren't many good things I can think of about the map.
 
I resetted earlier because half my villagers we're home schooled jungle freaks who hated me.
 
Oh geez.

I set my DS time to the proper date and start resetting from there because screw it, i'm just going to have a normal playthrough without plot resetting or trying to get dreamies or a perfect town. (I mean, in-game standard of perfect town yeah but you know what I mean :"I)

Gets Beau, Genji, Ankha, and Tia as starters.
.....damn.

Wow. Even if they aren't all your dreamies, at least you know that you can trade them for your dreamies.

And I agree with you about plot resetting and all of that. It's too time consuming for me. I don't bother making paths, but I have been landscaping as far as making fields of flowers. And in one section of my town, the flowers kind of do set up a path... and if I reset my town, I think I might try doing that from the beginning. But then I know when somebody new moves in, they're going to crush some of my flowers and I'm going to have to redo some of it to make it fit right. On the plus side, that means I'll just about always have something to work on. xD
 
♥ i want to cry right now!
so, merengue's moving into my town and i was plot reseting for her when on my home screen she was in the PERFECT spot! so i logged into my mayor thinking she was going to be there... she wasn't. </3

i hate my ac life! D:
all of my villagers are spread out and in weird spots because i'm so bad at plot resetting...
it honestly makes me want to reset my town, but, i have so many of my dreamies!
i've only paid for one... that was 10mill for merengue.
but ugh. someone convince my i'm dumb and to not do it!
 
I'm back from an unexpected AC hiatus and possibly jumping on the resetting bandwagon. No one moved from my town, nothing was destroyed, but there was a reason why I stopped playing. My town is too flat. It's a decent town, but it feels smaller than all the dream towns that I visit because it's... spacious. That seems to be my problem... people cleverly use trees and patterns to make their towns seem larger and my town seems too rigid. I don't see how cutting down my trees, bushes, and removing my pathways would fix the problem... It feels too much like a giant island because of the way the river runs through... Check out my dream address if you want to see for yourself (in my signature). I'm going to take some pictures and debate whether or not go through with it. Wish me luck!

*nervous sweating* I've been spotted.

I hate the feeling! I worked so hard on my town but the layout is seriously driving me up the wall. My fiancee restarted her town about a month ago and said it was hard to adjust in the beginning, but she doesn't regret it at all. Her town is 10x better than it was in her old file. She says, if you're too busy being focused on how you hate your layout, it's probably time for a change... I might just take up that advice. Headache or not... @___@;
Good luck, Improv!
