The Resetting Thread

I think this thread is a really good idea. I have reset a few times. My first major reset was because I was unhappy with my town layout - it was so BORING! And it Jair felt so tiny. And I hated all of my paths. So I reset until I found a town I -thought- I liked. But then I turned into a serial time traveller and it just didn't feel like my town. everything was rushed and didn't feel fun. That lasted about two days until I reset to what I have now. I find my layout exciting, I like my villagers, circle grass, apples (yay!), a south facing waterfall and beach on the east side, basically everything I want. And I plan on not time travelling too. The only thing I am doing with this town is the villager reset trick. Not for famous villagers, but for house placement.
To anyone thinking of resetting because they do not like their town layout, DO IT. Otherwise you will find it really hard to enjoy it and it will always be in the back of your mind. Just try not to turn into a serial resetter because that can be really hard to break out of. But once you've found your perfect town it'll all be worth it. And personally, I find starting fresh is so fun!
 
Thank you, JellyBeans. I really don't want to miss the Bug Off. *whew!*

I also agree that if you (being used to mean anyone) is unhappy with their town layout, it will always bother you. I'm happy to be able to transfer my current stuff to my first game and then redo my second. I don't know why, but I just can't wait another minute. And I'll still have time to restart and participate in the Bug Off. Heck, I may even win with a butterfly. :)
 
I wanna reset just so I have a legit chance at getting Coco but she's my last dreamie and it's sooo not worth it. :'(
 
After a 3 week struggle, I have returned to the TBT after an ACNL break!
Perfect town has been finally found!
I have Chrissy, Chief, Egbert, Greta, and Iggly
And I might be getting Kyle from someone hehe I'm excited.

I'm starting over. Why? BECAUSE THIS KYLE IDIOT WILL NOT MOVE THE HELL OUT. I'm done. I'm desprate to get this idiot out. I don't care,as long as I don't have to put up with this idiot anymore I'll definitely take the risk.

OMG nice town I like it :) hope you are happy about the town map and the villagers
 
I've been playing since July every day and yesterday I just... forgot. Same with today. Like my town is a chore now. Should I restart?

if you're town feels like a chore, it's best to take a break from ac imo.
 
im worried if i reset ill regret it some please help i also need someone to hold my items
 
I just reset...
Should I keep this map? I love where retail and town hall is located.
I love that the grass is triangle shaped and I love that the fruit is apple.
But, I'm a little unsure about the way the actual town is shaped, like all these curves and stuff.
What do you guys think? Help :(
Oh and my house, do you guys think it's in a decent location? It's right by a waterfall so that's nice but I don't know if it looks kind of cramped. I am going to move out all these villagers though if I keep this map.

Who are your villagers? I don't like the plaza being too close to the edge, just me though. Space might be a problem, but I like the map nonetheless! :>

My villagers are Pudge, Chrissy (who I already have in another town), Poncho, Rhonda, and Hamphrey.
What do you think about my house location?
I feel like I might find my house location inconvenient because I like being close to main street and whatnot.... ugh do you think I could find a similar map but with better spacing?

House location is quite cramped imo. I think you should try to find a better map, but I'm no expert in choosing details in a town map so I'm not entirely comfortable if you take my word for this xD

House location is a total big deal for me so yes I am gonna reset haha thank you so much <3 Hopefully I get apples or cherries in my perfect map town.
 
I don't think the house location is cramped, especially since you're going to move out the villager next to you. But if you like being close to Main Street, then you might find it tiresome to travel up there, even if you are running on a path.

Also, if you like to have big setups of PWPs (like a large park or something), the river might make that more difficult, unless you like the idea of a river running through everything.

Unfortunately, the maps you get are so random. It could be that the next reset gives you a perfect map, or it might be 100 resets from now. But if you are having these doubts after just getting the map, then I'd say keep searching.
