hi! there's an "ask the mayor" post going around the acnl side of tumblr right now, and after answering a bunch from asks, i thought it would be nice to post them here and have people answer them??

these can get kind of long, so instead of answering all 60 (!!!) questions, haha, how about post #1 answers question #1, post #2 answers question #2, etc. (post #s are in the upper right hand corner of a post, so just check the number of the person who posted last and answer the question of the next number) if this post exceeds 60 replies, #61 loops back to question #1, and everything cycles through again :)

(i hope this lasts because i'd love to get to know more of you :') also! if you want to ask me one through tumblr, i'm answering these all day here!)

i'm #1, so here's my answer:
1) what's your favorite thing about your town(s)?
i only have one main town that i decorate nicely (my 2nd town is a cycling town so its a bit of a hot mess rn), but my favorite thing about mistvale is how i decorated it! i put a lot of effort into my interiors (mayor's house has an art classroom, plant conservatory, study, and fairy bedroom; there's an onsen house in town; and resident everly runs a magic school) and my town is stuffed full of flowers. i just think my town has been looking really nice lately :) also! i love all my current residents!! it'll be a bummer when some of them leave (bc i don't have a strict list of 10 dreamies and am really flexible about letting villagers leave), but for now i'm enjoying life with them!
 
Nice!

2. how often do you play? do you wish you could play more?

I play mostly daily, at the morning at Sundance and at night at Hangzhou (it's clock is a few hours ahead so my 10 PM is the next day 12AM in the game). When I can't play in both because there's not enough time, I choose one and pass the other one up for the day. Usually, adding up both, I play for 30-45 minutes a day.
I fell like my play time is just enough. :)
 
3. do you use path qrs? why or why not?

i use paths that i created myself. there are a ton of really cute paths out there but i prefer to use my own designs so my town is more personal :3
 
3. do you use path we codes? why or why not?

I have used them sparingly in past towns for paths (stepping stone type ones), but mostly I just make my own paths and clothing since it's one of the parts of the game I enjoy the most.
 
4. what is your #1 ac goal at the moment?
Earning my diving badges and filling the diving encyclopedia.
 
uh oh, looks like we got off track. i'll answer two to fix it

5. is there any part of game play you don’t participate in (fishing tourneys, filling the museum, villager favors)?

um there's some villager favors i don't do lol, i don't do the tourneys or bug offs anymore though i used to, i don't remember participating in the harvest festival last year, and though i'm able to do theme challenges w/ nooks i opted out :)

6. worst part of starting a new town?


having to unlock the shops again d:
 
7.best part of starting a new town?

I would say be able to start new like new villagers, a new town that hasn't been touched & being to place new pwps in places that dont look dumb XD (Ive done that a few times & its always like the cafe or something that cant be demolished.
 
8. do you still play your first town? if not, did you complete it, reset, etc.?

Nope, for my acnl town, it felt stale and I didn't have anything going for it so I reset it.

I had wild world but I got rid of it once acnl cane out because I just wanted to test out animal crossing before acnl came out
 
9. what’s your opinion of happy home designer?

it's fun!! i can only do about a house or two a session because otherwise i'll spend way too much time or my head starts to hurt lol
 
new leaf, city folk, wild world, or population growing: which one do you like the most and why?

New leaf ofc :) because more villagers,items, you can decorate your town like PWP as your Mayor etc. i like it a lot
 
12.
Peaches! They are my town fruit, and at first I didn't like them. Then they grew on me, and I really like them now.
 
13.
Banana. They are yellow. They are moons in the trees, and they are killer in smoothies.
 
14. favorite emotion?

Hard to say! I really like the proud pose, but the smile with little flowers is also very cute! Also the one where you do a twirl and little blue stars appear! It's difficult to choose >v<
 
15. fav/least fav uchi pwp?

My favorite is probably the windmill! It's very nice looking and fits almost any town theme imo
Least fav is the Geyser. It's just unsightly and takes forever to shoot the water stream up so it doesn't feel worth it to have it in town just to see that.

17. Favorite/least favorite Smug PWP?

My favorite is the Cube Sculpture. I realize it's not very popular, but I absolutely love the way it looks in Feldspar. My least favorite is probably the Sphinx. I don't hate it, but it doesn't seem very versatile. It'd only look good under very specific conditions.
 
18. Fav/least fav Cranky PWP?

Favorite: The Wooden Bridge, I really like the design of it.

Least favorite: The Zen Bench. Compare to the other benches, I don't like the look of this one.
Also, when I first saw it, I thought it would be a table with a tablecloth on it to be honest...
 
19) probably a tie between flower arch and trash can. The trash can is convenient, but the flower arch is pretty.
Least favorite is water fountain because we can't sip from it.
