The Resetting Thread

.

After packing his suitcase,
Jake went around saying farewell to some
of his neighbors. At 10:00am sharp, he
walked into the train station and asked
for a ticket to the village of Sakura.
Jake gave one last glance to the town of
Camphor as the train he was on entered
the tunnel, on his way to his new life.

...

....Welcome to the village of Sakura.

Hehe, thought I should do something special for my final reset. I decided it was time for me to move on to a town where I would truly be happy in. My past town had an okay layout, but frankly I was tired of looking at Rover so I decided to stick with that map. It didn't even have what I was really looking for, honestly. I obtained half of my dream villagers in that town (and even though I loved them dearly)...I just decided it wasn't worth keeping if the only thing that made me happy were my villagers.

I also obtained these villagers through cyclers, which honestly I do not want to do in this town. I will not have dream villagers in my new town, although if a random villager moves in and I like them enough I probably won't let them move out.

I'm ready for a relaxing play through of the game, for the first time since June 9th.

Yay, good luck with your town! ^u^ I hope everything goes according to plan for you! It's nice to see that you're finally able to relax playing New Leaf for the first time in about 8 months *A*

Aw, good luck with your town!
 
Not sure whether to reset or not :s
I have marshal and stitches but my town layout is terrible. I hate it. I don't know why i didnt just pick 1 with the tree in the middle. I had to plot reset multiple times for marshal but stitches was alright. Anyway, should i reset?

I think you should. You hate your layout, which can't be changed. :(
Marshal and Stitches could be obtained again.
In the end, it's up to you, but don't wait forever to reset when you could have a new town by then. Good luck. :)

I think you should reset. Like the others above me mentioned, Marshal and Stitches can always be obtained again, and if you hate your layout it'll be bugging you as long as you have that town.
 
Hey people! :3 I reset my Wild World town today and got Daisy, Bree, and Stitches as starters. Hooray ^u^ Kid Cat also moved in *v*

Hi! I've been toying around with the idea of restarting my game for . . . A week or so now. :( I'm just not that happy with it. Or maybe, in comparison to other peoples' towns, I'm just envious? I feel like my house is in a weird spot - I have so many villagers that move in RIGHT next to it. Does anyone have any suggestions on whether or not I should restart??? I've put about 4 weeks worth of work into my town and I would really hate to have to go through that initial 5-day wait period where you can literally do nothing except hoard bells. :( I have ClubLoL, the gift shop for the Museum, I'm about to build my Dream Suite~. . . But other than a fountain and a second bridge, I have no other public works projects. I just feel like everything's in a bad spot - but I don't know what I'm looking for exactly. It doesn't help that in the past I've never actually gotten around to altering the town - I just collected all the bugs and fish and then paid off my house. I didn't even bother with the HRA or even trying to get hybrid flowers. So now I have no clue what I'm doing. x3

On the list of maps in Row 2, Column 2, I have map B4. I think I would like to live in a town with a more adventurous river. Something that lets me set my house apart from the rest of the town - but not by a whole lot.

I guess what I'm asking is if it's worth it to reset for just a different map and house placement?

I suppose it is, yes, as those things can never be changed. You have quite a nice layout, but there are better ones I guess. If you started a new town, you could start paying attention to the town (HRA and hybrids etc)

To sum up - Yes, restart, start fresh and enjoy a new town.
 
Hey, should I keep this town? It's about my 15th soft reset for a good town after I reset my town with 8 dreamies. I'm thinking of not having dreamies. Here are my villagers.
Bangle
Vic
Freya
Margie
Tucker
Nevermind. Not keeping.

I totally agree with Jellybeans on that one. Your map can never be changed unless you restart, and it'll only get worse if you keep your town, because you'll grow more attached to it.
 
I actually bought a second copy and it's wonderful!
It solved my resetting and tt'ing problem :3.

Haha and my mother was mad that I bought the same game twice and I was like:

Mother I waited FOUR FREAKING YEARS FOR THIS I AM HAPPY TO SPENT 80 EUROS ON IT.

I've learned that no town, no matter what I do, will ever be completely perfect; there will always be even one tiny flaw that any person can find about anyone's town. But how you wrote your dilemma makes it sound like you don't have a second copy (I don't know if you really do or not). If you don't, I would recommend buying one (if you're really that torn between restarting), or, if you have one without a town on it, try getting another one there and seeing if you would like the idea of restarting better.
If the house placement is really bugging you, and if you have all of your dreamies obtained, note that you will never be able to fix it unless you trade out your dreamies. Try weighing the pros and cons; you'll lose everything if you restart, but the house placement will at least be fixed. If you can motivate yourself enough to get an awesome town again, I would say go for the reset! But if you're just a bit concerned with the houses, I honestly think that you would regret restarting, although it depends on how much you love your town. Sure, one thing might be fixed, but are you willing to obtain every shop you lost, every villager you worked for, every goal you completed?
I recommend anyone considering restarting to weigh the pros and cons first, along with other options, before making a firm decision.
Feel free to take as long as needed to make up your mind, and I'm sure the answer will come to you eventually. :)

Ah sorry for the late reply, I haven't been on my laptop for a few days.
I appreciate your feedback! And yeah you'd be correct in assuming I don't have two copies of acnl. After reading this though I decided to give remodeling my town a try instead, and the results are worth it I think.
