This has happened at least once in every ACNL game I have played - the dreaded day when you can't find one of your fossil spots in your town. I am going on my third day now of just finding 3 fossils even though I have gone over my town with a fine toothed comb a couple of times a day. I am obviously missing it somewhere though. Refresh my memory... are there notoriously hidden spots where you have had trouble seeing the fossil stars on the ground? I have pushed the up pad behind all the houses and trees, and made a special effort to look behind the bushes. Is it possible that it can be covered by something like a new PWP? aarughhh.
