Nice map ... except I hate ponds so I never settle with a map with more than 1.
Thank you ! Oh I do love ponds. The sound of water is so calming. I love surrounding them with flowers.
I wonder why most people do not like these... Is it like rocks, getting in the way of PWP ?

That's basically it. I love the sound of the water from the ponds and river, but they take up a lot of space and limit many peoples' options when it comes to designing their town. :c
I restarted yesterday because I got a new copy of ACNL. My new town is Wintry.
My starter villagers were Anicotti, Buck, Lucky, Nan, and Olivia.
My native fruit is the apple and my starter train station is brown.
Here's my day one town map:
Edit: Blue house deleted.

I'm wondering if I should reset, AGAIN. x_x For the same reason, AGAIN. I'm so dumb, seriously.
So it all started yesterday. Velma told me she wanted to move out and even though I love her very much (she is one of the original 5 villagers), I decided to let her go. She was going to move out *I don't remember how many* days later.
I've wanted to start doing something with my town for such a long time but first, I had to get rid of some villagers and their awful house placements (until recently, I wasn't too familliar with plot resetting). That's why I wanted to part my ways with Velma as quick it's possible. I was so bored as well so I was like ''Meh, why not''. I did it a couple of times (because she still was here) using the system settings. Finally, her house was gone. Now I wanted to go back. Of course, I had to mess it up. I changed the time by talking to Isabelle instead of using the system settings. And guess what, Aurora was gone as well. I tried to get her back but it was too late, I think. There was a too big time difference between the game and 3DS clock which caused my game to time travel even more and skip several days.
Welp, what I know is that something weird happened. After Aurora moved out, I noticed a new house being built. At the beginning, it was for Rod. While I was trying to sync the time, it has changed. Now it was reserved for Lucky. Major freak out. It's not enough he's my favourite but now I have both him and Ankha which is the best. His house is in the awful spot but it doesn't matter tbh. I'm so happy but I really don't know what to do.
Once you start thinking about resetting, it's really hard to move on with your game. Now I feel guilty, even though this ''time travelling experience'' hasn't changed anything important (except for speeding up a few things like Velma moving out, Ankha and Lucky moving in instantly and opening of Club LOL and Shampoodle's). I can't take it back, unfortunately.
At the same time, I really don't want to reset. I have this town since slightly more than 2 weeks but I'm already so attached to it. I love my villagers (Tammi, Bones, Fang, Kid Cat, Lucky, Ankha, Ken, Rocket and Lopez, even though he's moving out tommorow), my map is awesome (it feels so mine XD), as well as the native fruit (peaches are bae), my dream code (it's so unique and easy to remember) and at this point I've spent such a big amount of time on playing that it feels painful just thinking about resetting.
But as I've already said, now it's so hard to move on with playing. I don't want to reset but I can't help considering this as an option. I think most of you guys know how it is. I think it really depends on a person but time travelling.. NOT FOR ME, OBVIOUSLY. It ruins everything and causes destruction.

lmao as i was typing out this paragraph of why i'm thinking of resetting, i convinced myself to do it. one question: i have two copies of the game and can use my bf's 3ds so transferring my villagers is possible, but how many days have to go by in the game before i could move them?
If you mean moving them all, it would depend on how long you can get your villager's to ping you in your current town, and then in your boyfriend's town (plus the villagers you'd want to move out on your new town). Since villagers can take anywhere from one day to like a week between pings, it's hard to say.

Here are my pictures from when I restarted my town a few weeks ago:
It took me 3 days to find a town map I liked. Although I miss some of my villagers from my previous town, it felt good to start over since Im much happier with this map than my previous one

Days later and still resetting for a map I like with apples, this is tough... I think I might settle with peaches if I must but apples are my priority since they go perfectly with the town theme I have in mind!
EDIT: I found my map! C:
I like it a lot personally, I'll ask for help to transfer my stuff onto this town and get started on tting to unlock the shops!
pros:
-nice horizontal-based layout (my fav)
-mostly straight river
-apples (the thing i was resetting for)
-circle grass (my favorite)
-red train station (fits with my town theme)
-brown town hall (same as above)
-space to put the permanent pwps near the train tracks
-centered plaza
-only two ponds, the extra one is in a nice position to act as a lil fishing pond for the campsite
-residential area on the lower half, with plenty of space to accomodate three human character houses right next to each other
-thick beach area for planting hybrids
cons:
-no private beaches ): i love those (but that’s a minor thing so it's ok)
-a couple of annoying rocks but ill work around them

Can someone hold my stuff while I reset? Everything in my town feels too cramped.

I was thinking a lot about resetting my first town over the last few days. Reading through this thread helped me decide to go through with resetting it and starting over.
I suppose my main reservation with resetting Kiwana was that I've had the town for nearly 2 years. I started it when the game first got released and there was a part of me that thought I would miss it. And I know I will, but I also am starting to realize that the town bores me and I really don't like it anything about it. I have fond memories with it but I don't want to play it; I play in Dreamie (my second town) more than I do my first one anymore. So I think resetting it will help me like AC more like I used to and help me like my first town more. c:
I already have a theme in mind too. A fairytale rabbit town. >w< I just need to decide whether I want Julian or Marshall as my Smug villager (not a fan of O'hare unfortunately). :3 I do plan to save my favorite four villagers in my second town and my step-dad will hold my rarer items for a bit for me so I guess I'll reset once those four villagers are safely moved over to Dreamie.
I'm glad I read through this thread a bit. Definitely helped put the worries at ease. ^_^

I'm stuck on whether to reset this town.
Pros:
Most of the villagers are good.
I'm generally living in it okay.
I've almost unlocked the QR machine.
I've got seven villager pictures.
Cons:
Jacques' house is right in front of mine.
Leonardo.
I'll lose good villagers like Tom and Mitzi and Chrissy and Biskit. (though I might earn them again.)
I might get really bored and quit the game again.
There's a huge space that I'll probably never use.
There's a lot of annoying trees and rocks.
If I reset, I'll have to unlock things all over again, which is a huge pain. Especially getting a 100 percent approval rating.
What do you think I should do?

So when I had my friends over the other day I kind of convinced my boyfriend and one of my friends to both reset their towns, my boyfriend was a butt though cause he picked a map that is nearly identical to mine >.< but my friend was talking about how much she hated her town and everything so I told her that resetting might be good. She hadn't played in months and lost connection to her villagers and everything, so she was super happy to get back into it after restarting after I talked her up about how happy I was to restart. Sometimes it's great to just start over and have a fresh new town to make your own.
