The Resetting Thread

Hazelx said:
Not sure if I should reset or not :L I started playing new leaf a week or so after it came out but now I just have no time to play now and I haven't played in a long time. I visited today and there's quite a few weeds even though I had the beautiful ordinance, 2 of my dream villagers moved out and some random villager moved in the middle of my path. I have fully expanded my house, have most my dream villagers and have set out a path and have a crap load of hybrids. If I do reset I'll get someone to hold my stuff and 2 or 3 villagers for me~ I don't really like the layout of my town and my town name. I don't have a lot of PWP's, I just have stuff like the 2nd floor in the museum, dream suite, the cafe police station etc. I've unlocked most things as well. I just don't know if it's worth resetting or not because I have spend a lot of time on my town >_<

So to make it easier to read...
Why I want to reset
Two dreamies gone
Random villager moved in and I prefer not to TT so it probably won't move out until a while
Don't like layout
Don't like town name
Layout is kind of.. messy. Not really planned, have trees everywhere
Have lots of random junk (which I will probably give away)
Quite a few strongly disliked villagers

Why I don't want to reset
Have loads of stuff I want and might not find someone to hold it for me.
Fully expanded house
Unlocked a bunch of things
Spend a lot of time on my town

Soooo what do you think? Sorry about long post!

Go for it. Once you're unhappy with things like your layout and town name, it never goes away. You probably will eventually restart so don't drag it out any longer. The unlocked things and the items are usually replaceable. IMO, you look like you need the restart.
 
well... i reset again, heh... (・・。)ゞ

honestly, i'm thinking about just completely giving up trying to find the "perfect" town, and maybe try to play the game most people play it, just dive right in. i was also thinking of just giving AC for a while... maybe until summer? idk... any advice?

heck, i might as well do it. i miss having fun and playing the kind of carefree play-style that you are supposed to play. tomorrow i'm just gonna dive right in and see what the game gives me, hehe.
 
*sigh* just wasn't feeling it in my new town, so I reset... again... I just found a good one (open space, peaches, Freya, Tia, Genji, south waterfall, west beach) I was going to make it a cycling town but then i dropped my DS and the cartridge popped out :'(

Back on the hunt.

Oh no, sorry to hear that happened!

I'm not superstitious, but maybe that was a sign it wasn't the right town for you, after all. P:

Good luck finding a new map!

Yeah it might be haha. Thanks! I hope it doesn't take too long to find one...
 
Hi guys! After resetting and resetting I found the perfect town. I got both Erik AND Molly as starters, as well as Genji, Frank, and Peggy. Just got Whitney, Deirdre, and O'hare from plot reset. 50% of my dreamies done already! I just wanna get to the decorating. Beautiful map too. A plaza by the train station just like I wanted. However Molly moved next to my town hall and I won't be able to plot reset Bill next to her since there's a stupid rock in the way.

I went in last night with all intentions of dropping the idea of my perfect town & literally a map I'd been hunting for came up. With every last detail what I wanted. With all five starters as villagers that I like.

heheheh, INDEED. Rocket moved in on me ( I fell asleep while villager resetting and the clock passed 6am ;_; ) but I'll not let another mistake happen. Here's my map:

The villagers are: Bob, Kid Cat, Fauna, Yuka, and Monty + Rocket tomorrow. I think I'm going to TT to get all my villagers set up & then come back to current date.
 
I personally find it a shame that people reset so much. The more you abuse time traveling and other methods of instant gratification, the less attached to your town you'll be and the more likely it will be that you'll reset.

The harder you work for something, the more attached you'll be. I can't tell anyone to not reset, but just suggest taking your time. Play one day at a time. Earn what you have it will feel so much better to have it. I promise you.
