The Resetting Thread

This is a major decision for me. A critical major one that is more important than my life actually lol (no I am not lifeless).

I have a town full and complete dreamies. A total satisfied town and my ACNL is near perfection, just one flaw. I lost Katt due to a long abandoning the game. Now I get a second game as my cycling town. I have 2 choice now:

One:
Pros:Forgot all about Katt, leave her behind and get another Uchi(Frita my only option now) and live happily ever after in the almost perfection town. 16 cycle is just too impossible as after so many leave and come I still cant get Tiffany back(first villager move out)
Con: I will forever be missing her and that will be the dark spot in my ACNL game.

Two:
Pros: Build a same town with same name, same mayor name and slowly move in back my dreamies and including Katt. My town will be even better than before with better planning.
Cons: My mayor will have do build everything back again from the encyclopedia, badges....even catching that 2 hardest bug scorpion and tarantula. Bell and items will never be the problem tho but my public project will all back to 0.

How? Both seem like a good one but each have their own flaw. it confused me for such a long time and no other ppl can gv me better answer than all dear ACNL fans here.

And the second I am in dilemma here, Katt move in my cycling town!!!urghhh I miss her....

Plan one I think, you can do without her, but if you reset it's gone forever.
 
Spent two hours resetting to get the perfect town.
Town Hall above square, apples, red roof train station -- realized in my resetting fog I put my town name as my name.

I've been in a resetting cycle for almost a year now on and off. Haven't been able to play in a town longer than a week. After months of giving up on the game I finally got the urge to play again. Was resetting for a day before I came across this a few hours ago:

The placement of the main buildings is what compelled me to check it out. I love having the plaza and the town hall beside each other and I liked the idea of having Retail by the dock and having one long continuous beach. I really wanted to have a space to build my house on the top half of the map so I could plant cedar trees around it. I have apples as my town fruit and Erik, one of my dreamies in a decent spot. The only thing is I have square grass again but in the grand scheme of things it's not that big a deal since everything else is pretty good. The map is very different from my past maps but I think it should be interesting to landscape.

Here's hoping I can get back into the game! Wish me luck!
 
I recently reset bc I hated my town layout in general. I always end up resetting-

In my fog of wanting to reset so bad I forgot to sell all the stuff I had.

Oh well. My new town has a nice layout, and quite good villagers (Rosie, the lil cutie) All my move ins went straight near the town hall, so I'm annoyed about that. But alas, that can be fixed.
 
Just reset my town after a pretty long period of inactivity/not playing.

Hopefully I can keep at it for awhile this time around!
 
I just reset my town and named it Cerise because after a while of not playing, I decided to start anew.
On my first try, I got Stitches and Diana greeting me at the train station.
Sadly, the town fruit is oranges, but I like my villagers and town layout so much that it doesn't really matter. I can always plant cherrys! :)
 
I'm a noob at plot resetting; I've never done it. A cute villager decided to set up a plot in my town, and I very much dislike where. If I reset, will it simply move him somewhere else or change the villager too?

It depends actually, did you load the day with your Mayor/any already existing character? Because if you did, sadly nothing can be done :c Everything is already set in stone and the day can't be reset.
Otherwise, if you did load with a new saved file, and if that villager is a random move-in, chances are the villager and its plot will keep changing. Random move-ins will change per reset.
Plot resetting is mostly done for villagers you asked to move to your town (either from campsite or another town, probably from someone else's void too but not too sure about that), because there the character is already set (aka not a random move-in) and you just reset to change its plot position. ^^ Hope that made sense!

In other news, I reset my town a week ago because I kept on losing villagers due to me being inactive :c I was too lazy to cycle again bc it's become such a hassle, too.
Anyway, it took me so long but I got a good map! I didn't have a dream map planned out so I just kept resetting until I found one that seemed to easy to landscape. I just don't like the placement of my first villager houses but it's okay, I don't plan on keeping them anyway x) (except for Lobo, his house plot is okay.) I got cherries and a blue-roof station too so I'm pretty happy with it c:
 
I want to reset again... This happens every time! I get so busy that I don't play for a while and when I go back to it I just want to reset! I hate it! I miss relaxing in my town everyday like I used to :(
 
I've been pondering for quite some time and i find this question highly unsolvable.

Should i reset my town?.

I was founded on March 3rd, 2016 which means i have had it for little over 2 years and i'm starting to get bored of it since it's merely a repetitive cycle every single day. I don't want my town to be in stuck in limbo which raises this question i have been asking myself since the end of 2015. There are many regrets i have about my town such as its cringe worthy name and path layout and all of that "Organizing your plants nonsense".

However, there are the good things to the most negative of things.

I have golden tools and a immense amount of bells, i can't just simply abandon 8,000,000 Bells and items i have worked my rump (There are simple alternatives to profanity however) off just to earn. I have thought up of a solution as i can transfer it to another town and pick it up once i'm ready, so that problem is moved out of the way.

Since i have mental disorders, the voices in my head keep on tempting me to reset for my own good. I resist these thoughts and voices since i fear that it's not good. However, my town is starting to fall apart due to it now being a mere cycle and a cause of boredom rather than a boredom buster, and that's the mere simplicity of the game; To stop boredom.

So should i reset for the hell of it or should i stay with my town?.
 
I did it. This is my new town:

I like it as there's more space than in the previous town. I only had one requirement this time around (cherries, apples or pears as the town fruit) and hopefully I'll be able to stick with it this time. I have a general idea in mind to plan the town but I'm going to try my best to enjoy it and not ruin it for myself yet again. Fingers crossed I can do it this time!

Aw thats a great map
I'm not soo happy with my map however I think i will make the best out of it ^^
 
I'm not sure if I should reset my town...

I have all of my dreamies, haven't really fished or dug fossils much, don't have a bunch of bugs. I have a bunch of PWP.

However, I hate the name now. Parfait was made during a time in which I had an obsession with sweets. Now I'm over it and I'm tired of it.

Also tired of my mayor name, which is ironically my actual name. I've been telling my villagers to call me Soleil, but it's not the same. It won't change my TPC.

I want to experiment with new villagers. I've had the same ones for a long time, but I'd like to keep my sweet Marshal.

I dunno. Decisions...

That sounds like a tough one.
I've been in that situation before.
I've always reset and somewhat regretted it later.
Maybe you could write out a pros / cons list for yourself.

Or just buy another copy of the game when you can. Start fresh with that. But still keep your other town. ;;
