The Resetting Thread

Nope. I've been playing since the US launch and have put almost a year's worth of work into this town. It may not be the most perfect layout but I've got months of achievements and memories with friends that I'd never be able to wipe away.

Enjoy your new town though. : )
 
I've thought about it, because my town and my mayor aren't perfect.
But no.

I've gotten to like my sleepy faced mayor, and I've worked around with my sometimes difficult town layout pretty well,
so I'm proud of it. I've achieved most of the villagers I want, and am working hard on making my ideal pathing and landscaping.
My house is fully upgraded and I am putting a lot of thought into it's decoration.
My museum is starting to look like an actual museum too.
I planted 3 massive forests without buying a single sapling on here, the cedar one took forever and I love it so much.
Etc...

Basically, I've put too much heart and soul into this town to erase it.
 
I've done it before, quite a few times, and it's so exciting! I find that once I restart, I feel motivated and get more done. For example, I once had a town for four months without having the roost, but in my new town, I've had it for 5 weeks and I already have it! As well as 25% of my museum, 6 dreamies, and only need 6 more bugs until my bug collection is complete!
I love my new town and wouldn't change it for the world! (Well unless something bad happened and I felt the urge to reset, lost a few dreamies whilst thinking and then I either reset or my town corrupts anyway lol)
 
If I ever got bored, yeah.


I do have a second town idea in mind so maybe someday in the far future? I'm very attached to the town I have now though haha so who knows. I feel like that's something left to be seen.
 
Merengue! Please place your home next to Stitches! He needs a sna....I mean friend!

Wrong kind of resetting Ami xD
I highly recommend not moving a food themed villager next to a lazy, but as long as Stitches is happy with his neighbour I guess xD

Also guys, do you think I should make a guide on how to reset and start a town without stress or trouble? I have had file corruptions and the urge to reset a fair amount of times. It would be quite detailed and would be designed for perfectionists ;)

I'd love that! Please do, especially with details on how to unlock stuff asap. I'd just need someone to hold stuff for an indefinite amount of time while I reset for a layout.
 
The thing I hate most about brand new towns is NO BRIDGES. D: I have to go aaaaalllll the way around my river to get to the villagers' houses on the other side. .-.

And my permit rating is only 49%. Boooo.

So I restarted in April and got this map. I really liked it at first. But then I looked at the map thread and some people have a river that's completely straight and I want that and I hate square grass anyway. So should I reset?

That's a lovely map! I'd say keep it tbh
 
So I'm at a stage where I'm seriously contemplating resetting, due to my rubbish river shape and waterfall positioning a cannot catch a char also going through the fish list I don't have a single river pool fish so I guess the small one I have is rubbish and fails to spawn them,

Doubts about resetting are I have some good furniture sets, I spent all day catching fathers for the pave set and all easter digging eggs for that set two, I also do not wish to loose static or fluffy from my village

Help,??

Advise needed!?!?!

You should reset. If you only need two villagers held, that should be easy. (I can hold one if you don't need them to be TTed.) And there's a lot of people who will hold all your items for free! :D And if you need to catch some fish, people will let you.
 
I need help on whether I should reset or not.

Reasons I want to reset:

My town map, first of all, is disgusting. My town hall is in the middle of the biggest part of my town, so I have no room over there to finish projects. I also have four ponds, three of which are in the most intrusive and annoying spots, completely ruining my pathing. I also have rocks in really dumb places, because one rock is in the middle of a bunch of villagers, so it's just sticking out of my path, the second is right next to the Plaza, so I can't really path to the Plaza, and then another is in the middle of an orchard I was planning. Also, I put my house in the dumbest spot (originally thought it would be cool), which is right next to a cliff so I have no room to decorate my house.

Reasons I don't want to reset:

I started the game when it first came out, and I like to have that on my town player card thing. I also have Re-Tail in an amazing position, perfect for my town. The only other reason is that I have Lolly and Stitches, who I freaking love so much, and Lolly was one of my starting people... I'd miss her so much. Also, Stitches just moved in and he is so freaking adorable.

Side Notes:

I spent a really long break from this game when school started, so I'm not that far into it. I don't have T&T fully upgraded, my town isn't close to being pathed, don't have a fully upgraded house (just got first bedroom), and I also don't even have things like the Cafe.

Should I restart, or no?
 
You could buy another? I think a months of work is hard to redo. But villagers can be held. If you don't HATE your layout, don't reset.
 
To add some: Your river won't get much straighter. You have only one pond. All your buildings are clumped up north. That said, you have the maximum area. If you can get all the villagers south of the river, your layout will basically be a huge piece of workable land. That's a great map.

Your map is awesome! Even though it isn't completely straight, your hous fits into the little curve and makes it look really good! Also, almost all of your villagers are in a line! That gives you so much room to work with for public works projects! However, if you become really annoyed with the river's shape and the grass, you may want to reset. Sometimes it is just one little thing that annoys you to the point of frustration. Sometimes resetting and taking care of the problems in your old town is actually pretty fun..... until you are resetting your town map for 8 hours straight! Anyways, it is your call! You just need to figure out how much the river shape and grass pattern means to you, and if it is worth loosing all of your villagers and items, plus all of the time it will take to reset!
Either way, good luck!
