The Resetting Thread

Hey guys, I need some advice.
I'm unsure if I should reset my town, as I've had it for so long and I have at least 4 of my dreamies.
On the other hand, All the villagers are in weird positions, I dislike my town fruit, where my house is, and where the rocks are (They make it super hard to place paths).

I guess it depends on what's more important to you; your town layout or your villagers?
You can always get dreamies back eventually, but your villager placement, town fruit, house placement, and rock locations are there forever. If you won't mind being without your dreamies for a little while, maybe you should reset so you can work on building a town you love.

I am in the process of resetting my town (just getting 5/10 of my dreamies in temporary housing with holders) because a few things that were permanent bothered me (my house placement, TTing etc) and if you want to reset i'd say do it now before you have all 10/far into your game because transferring everything is a pain in the butt and you can probably find your dreamies again
 
I have reset my town to June 9th 2014. I am having my Mayor start from that day and work for to today's date until I get everything worked out to where I like it. The new Town is called DarkLily instead of being DarkRose. I still plan to gather every type of Rose color there is though for a room the the mayor's house! I am also planning out the other characters houses abit more than I had planned them out before. I already have all four players placed in the town! All four in in one area of the town instead of being spaced so far apart like they were in DarkRose. I already made the town tune and had Jiro make the town flag though it's just a base flag for now since I can't draw a Lily to save my life!
 
Just an idea of what my new town is like: Re-Tail, the plaza and the town hall are in the very northern part of my town. Going to plot reset my villagers onto the smaller south eastern part of my town. Only two ponds and six rocks (in good locations too). My house is by the south facing waterfall and i will be keeping the other side free for my lighthouse. My campsite is going to be in the uppermost lefthand corner of my map. My beach is on the west and i have a decent sized private beach on the south side. My second characters house is on the southeastern side near the bridge and it will become a bakery/mall. Very happy i reset C:

That sounds like a really nice layout! ( ?∀`)

That sound really nice! Maybe you could post a picture of your map? ^^

To those who were curious what my map looked like. The gyroid is my campsite.
 
I would love a new map...but I have waay too much crap AND I have been working HARD on my badges...so I would not dream of it at this point. I will have to just live vicariously through my cycle town. LOL
 
Hello! I need advice on my town map. Currently, I've had thoughts of resetting due to me not having any space at all for PWP's. I like my villagers, and have at least 4 dreamies, I don't really want to reset either because I've gotten so much things and badges and it'd be a waste to lose it all. So I need some sort of advice to where to place my PWP's, in the mean time there will be some villagers I'll be cycling out. Here is a picture of my town map c:

The ones with small red x's are the one's I'll be cycling one. I don't really know where to place the one's I'll be getting.. (which is probably 3-4?) I also have Brewsters as a PWP, but don't know where to place it. Any ideas?

Dang that one right by the ramp has got to be a pain. You do have a lot of ponds though, do you like your layout besides the PWP placement? I really like your town plaza and Re-Tail locations. And your river isn't too long. How hard were your dreamies to achieve? You can always get them again or cycle them out to holders while you reset (that's what i did, i got them all out New Years Eve, reset and got my map in one reset and now am waiting for the very last one to come back to me) but i wasn't very far in my towns progress in terms of the badges and i can get why that would be harder to give up. Do you have a DA? I can come look around for possible PWP placement if you want just let me know through a PM/VM C:

Actually that one is one of my dreamies, Whitney ;__; I accidentally started up the game as mayor and didn't know/forgot I was going to get her and had already saved so she was stuck there cries. It really bothers me because sometimes I come running and WHAM her house is in the way lol.. Actually no I don't orz I was sort of forced to choose this one anyways. My map isn't something that reaaaally bothers me, I'm fine with it. My dreamies weren't that hard to achieve ;u; But I rather not make someone hold them.. like I said, I have a lot of things I rather not give up. If I had a second copy of the game, I'd gladly move my dreamies there and just drop all my money/things there but unfortunately, I don't. I do have a DA, but I rarely use it. And yes I'd love for you to come! I'm having Lucky move in, do you think you can help me decide where to place him? I don't really want him in the biggest area of the map because I'm thinking my PWP should go there. I don't really want him behind my house either OTL I'm also thinking about replacing my campsite somewhere.. could you help me with that as well ?
 
Hi! I'm thinking about resetting, but the idea loosing all my items and progress is blocking me. I've created my town a long time ago and at the time I didn't know about landscaping or paths or even that some maps were better than others... Now I've tried to make my town better but I'm unsatisfied with some details (I don't play with my mayor and am forced to switch between characters to take care of pwps all the time, my town's name, how many stones my town has...), so I don't know what to do.

Hi! I've had my current town since July 31st 2014 and I kinda want to reset. I unlocked T&T emporium, I have loads of money,I even have a lot of my house upgraded. My town is perfect, like TOO perfect to the point where it's so boring! I'm not sure if I should reset or not because I have reset before and have regretted it each time. But I feel like I won't regret resetting this one. The only reasons I dont like about resetting my town is losing Pietro and Molly and that when I make my new town and people look at my tpc they will think I'm a noob because I made the town in 2015. Can anyone give me advice on wether I should reset or not?

You can give them to people that are willing to hold them and cycle them back out to you. That's what i did when i reset C:

I would reset if I were you! And I don't see how getting your town in 2015 will make you look like a noob??? //; u ; I'm getting my future town all the way in May, which is the very earliest time I have to actually sit down and play the game. School sucks ; v ; But I have loads of time to plan out my town and decide on a layout, town name, villagers, etc. And there are tonnss of other users who are still resetting here in 2015 too. It's not a burden u v u

So if you're bored of your town, resetting is always a nice change. You could always get another copy of the game if you don't have one too. ( ⋂‿⋂’)
 
To anyone thinking about it, and to those upset with their layout, villagers, etc, then go for it. It's more interesting starting a new game with new features than just doing mundane tasks everyday, like hitting each rock or talking to every villager once which is tedious.
 
I've been thinking about resetting lately, but I can't bring myself to lose everything I've achieved. And I especially can't lose my villagers...short of three dreamies, my villagers are perfect.

Maybe I'll get lucky and find a decent-priced used copy to make a second town. At least that way I could slowly move my good villagers into a new town.
