The Resetting Thread

So I'm going to reset today. I stored all my rare items in someone else's town... but I kind of want to start from scratch without any items. But that'll just be a waste of time to get all the reorder able DLCs and whatnot again, won't it?

So should I get rid of all my items, all the items except for my villager pics and stuff, or keep everything?

Well, I reset twice. The first time I had about 3 or 4 dreamies. But I reset 'cause I knew I could get them back. I reset again because I wasn't happy with the layout. But then I found a nice layout. I got all my dreamies pretty quickly, thanks to all these cycling threads. I'd reset. You can easily get back the villagers you will miss, and people on here can hold your items for you if you'll miss them.

If you're really bored of your town, I would recommend restarting. Plus, restarting brings a lot back into the game, and it's better to restart with a town you love rather than keep a town you regret doing something with.
Good luck! :)
 
Pretty much decided to restart once I've got my friend to hold the 2 villagers I want to keep <3 my layout and just pretty much everything about my town is frustrating me and I've timetravelled a lot more than I originally intended to, so I think it's time for me to reset :)
 
I like my town layout now but Merengue just left me and honestly I feel like deleting the entire thing. Diana is the only villager holding me back.
 
I'm thinking about resetting too but all my finished buildings......my hybrids.......my bells.....I have every kind of fruit...I have Curlos and Zell.....And in a way I think well you live in the town you live so I have to make the best of it but I would like a better beach, a better river, more place for pw's *sigh*

Do you have a second copy?
 
I wanna reset my cycling town after Marshal and Marina move out. The river isn't straight enough and I've seen prettier layouts. You can visit my cycling town with the DC or cycling town.
 
Decided what im doing :)
My mum is getting a 3DS for christmas
my present is going to be 2 3DS games for her, and she really wants new leaf, so ill get that :)
Then when i ever want to reset i can just put all my items in her town and obviously i can trust my mum, so it will all be fine :D
 
Would anyone mind holding some of my items, fruit and hybrids so I can reset? I'll gladly give you some bells for your help, I just want some one I can trust so that I know my items are safe. Thanks.
 
I'm thinking of restarting, for some reason I hate my layout and I don't like where I put my house.
Is there a way to give someone else my mayor-ship?

I also don't like tat my plaza is in the top right-hand corner, out the way of everything.

But:
My Re-Tail store is just above the pier
The river is a nice shape and allows for plenty of PWPs
I have some lovely villagers that were gifted
Pears

I really wanted my native fruit to be peaches, apples or oranges and the only reason I settled on this town is because there was no one that I really hated and 2 dreamies were there as starters, which I realize was a mistake.
I also did the villager reset trick to place the location of houses or to get a different villager if I didn't like the one that was going to move in. I feel I've kind of spoiled it for myself and would prefer a more natural town with that absolutely perfect layout.
 
I decided to reset, and I'm in the middle of choosing a town now - this one has a weird layout, but it has apples and Chrissy and Francine as starters, so I might keep it for a while.
 
So I'm gonna reset either today or on Saturday. I really need someone to salvage the stuff I want to keep. Also if I could sell my remaining Perfect Fruits that would be nice.

And also if I could use up one of your slots for a Pro Design I have, because its one of my favourite outfits and I can't seem to find the QR code for it.
 
I didn’t really put that much thought into PWPs and now my town design really sucks. I don't feel like the flow is as good as other towns I've seen (so jelly uwu; ) I like the whimsical approach, but now I’m kinda wishing that I had been more calculating about where I placed things. I also don't like my mayor name or town name since I just picked it in a hurry. To restart or not to restart? I already put so many hours in it, ahhh! And I have a lot of dreamies.

I do have a digital copy (that I use solely for cycling) and my bf has a DS so it's not hard to transfer items and villagers. It's just...all that time. D: The thought of rebuilding everything from scratch is not very inviting.

On another note, I am literally online all day long so this is an open invitation to anyone who needs to transfer items during a reset. I can keep your things for you while you re-make your town. Just message me!

So I've come to the conclusion that I probably won't restart and that once I've placed a couple of bridges and arranged my fruit trees my town will become wonderful. I hope.
 
Ahhhh thinking about resetting? Idk this is my second town (because I didn't like my first layout)...I thought that I had a good layout this time around but I'm starting to realize I don't like it anymore :/

I thought it would be good space-wise but it's sooooooooo cramped right now, I can fit hardly any PWPs/extra houses/villager houses/landscaping in general. The rock placement is horrible...I wish all rocks were destructible in this game but alas. I'm really disappointed at the lack of space in this game...I hope they improve this in the sequel.

I don't care much about the museum so that's not a loss (doesn't take too long to fill anyway). My main issues would be all the stuff i'd have to leave behind :/ Unless someone would be kind enough to hold a toooon of things for me (I'd also be willing to do the same for other folks, after I've reset.). Unlocking everything again would be annoying. Losing all my QR paths. Losing all my unlocked PWPs x___x

Also does anyone know the town layout with the most space? (best river position?)
 
Okay, I need someone to hold all my stuff urgently. I have about 85 items I want to keep exactly. Most of them are unorderables and DLC. (not including all my bags of money though). And it would also be appreciated if I could save a pro design which I cant find the QR code for in town. Pleaaaasseeeeeee.

All towns have equal space, but some of them feel like there's less because of the way the river is and what kind of turns it has. The land size is the same, but it's just put in different places so it might feel more cramped with different town designs and layouts.
As of for the best river position, it's really up to you what you like, but there's a thread that has all the styles of layouts on it. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of it, so I can't really tell you which one it was. :( It can be found by searching on Google, though. It's really up to you what you feel is the best position, depending on where you want projects to go and what kind of projects you want.
@Samus/@Vickielockie: I can help you, if you want, along with anyone else that needs the help! I don't accept payments, though; I do it all for free. I'm only free on the weekends, sadly, so I understand if you want someone else that's not so busy to help. It's just school and...ugh, so much homework. :c But I'm willing to help out nonetheless. ^^ Feel free to send me a PM/VM if you want!
