The Resetting Thread

I spent around an hour reseting and I found an almost perfect map. ^^ The only flaw is I was hoping for a west-facing beach, but oh well, I'm happy just to get the river layout I was looking for. Then I was pleasantly surprised to see Tia waiting to greet me at the station! :D

First post here, hi! :)

I think I could use a second opinion or something about the possibility of restarting... First, the things I've grown to hate:

-River layout with useless, thin strips of land in north and west
-Re-Tail a little too far from the dock
-Split beach
-Generally cramped layout that makes placing PWPs hard
-Oranges as native fruit
-Beach on right

Things I like:

-The blue train station
-The blue town hall (I love the interior)
-Circle grass
-Villagers that are above average (Hamphrey, Chief, Zucker, Marshal, Zell, Diana, Phoebe, Skye, Rosie and Bianca)
-T&T Emporium
-Lots of donations in museum
-And lots of PWPs unlocked...

I'm really not sure what to do here, maybe I need a second game or something. :eek:
If you have the money for it, I'd buy a second copy. That way you don't lose everything while you go through the process of finding a good map/native fruit/grass, in case you change your mind.

I love your map! So much space for pwps. I like the beach on the right aide better than the left.
 
I have a question about resetting - when you reset, do you lose your character and their bells as well? So you completely start from scratch?

Because I'm going to reset, I just need to know whether I need to get my alternative account to hold my bells/items for me as well, or just my villagers

Yep, you lose everything. It's like your character and town never existed once you reset. So if you want to still have your bells/items/villagers, you'll need to have them transferred to another town.

Is it possible to move my mayor character out into another "holding" town, then transfer her back to the new town with all of her catalogue and badges intact?

And thank you for your answer!

That's exactly why I went for it! :) I cycled through so many maps with fancy river shapes and realised that even though they look cool they really limit space. ><

I'm jealous of your villagers *-* And your river D:

And you've got the big beach space x_x Perfect for planting hybrids where villagers don't move on them. *Looks at Hamprey*

So glad i broke through the cycle of resetting
had my new town for a month now, and its still perfect and i love it :p
 
Part of me wants to reset... My husband's the mayor, but he hardly ever plays so we have hardly any public works projects. But then so many hours have already gone into my character I'm reluctant to do so.

...Buying a second copy though? There's an idea!
 
I'm not too keen on my layout/mayor's face any more, but I've done so much that I don't really want to reset. I can't afford a new game yet, but I'm very tempted...

I'm very happy with my villagers! I was looking for Tia; and Roscoe was the latest addition to my dream villagers list (I've only ever had three in total - Lobo being the only one not included here) . :) But once I saw the river I decided I didn't care who the villagers would be... but I got lucky! ^^

I'm kinda going nuts lol. I can't seem to find peace in any town layout. I'll get a decent map, and one or two villagers I dig, but never am I 100% cool with it all. I also get peaches every time. My own fault I guess lol *sigh* (//.-)

I'm learning that resetting is a sick, sick disease that never seems to end LOL

I want to reset

My town map is not really ideal for placing PWPs and while my villagers are decent, I really wish I have a new set of them. My friend ITookYourWaffles resetted her town and has benefited from doing such an action. The problem for me is that she barely had any doubt on resetting because of her rly bad set of villagers, town map, items, her lil sister ruining everything she made etc. while I have a lot of unorderables and hybrids across my game. Here are details of my town, please place some insight because I wanna know what to do with my town >.<

Town Map: 1005355_1409092089310044_2130179929_n.jpg
Villagers : they're in my signature.
Minor Details: Native Apples, Brown Station, unlocked the TIY but barely shop there, unlocked Shampoodle but barely had any changes there, Circle Grass, and over 217 hours of play time.


My items are gonna get held by someone though if I reset.

I probably am gonna give out some of the villagers I have to people that want them if I can. I really think it's my destiny to reset :O

But i dunno if i should give them out because they all have junk in their homes :/

This is what I ended up doing, and on the first try I got a layout I pretty much wanted with interesting river that ends south and vast open spaces. :) Also had apples as native fruit and triangle grass which looks nicer than circle, I think.

But I accidentally let Klaus sneak in, now I'm in the process of getting rid of him. ;)

Bump ;w;

This is why making a thread on this is more better for more insight...
