So I've been thinking for a while and I've finally decided to buy a second copy of ACNL because I really don't want to restart. I'm quite lazy, I'm impatient, I love my villagers and I've spent a long time on my town. Anyway, I need some help with some things.

Firstly, I have no idea what I should name my town when I get the copy. At the moment I've got a town called Vaitlen. I don't know if I want them similar or related. What do you think?

Secondly, should I spend most my money on trying to get PWP in place before villagers move in and get in my way? This has happened in my current town. My favorite villager is right in the way of where I want to place a new bridge. I'm not too fussed on decorating my home, as long as the exterior looks good, I'm fine.

Thirdly, do you think I should hack my second copy? Honestly, I'm a bit scared too. I'm a bit of technophobe, even though I cannot live without all my devices and I take GCSE ICT, so I'm scared it'll mess up my 3DS or my computer or my save file.

2: you should get your villigers before pwps, makes stuff easier

3: if you're uncomfortable dont
 
For names, it'll help to have a specific theme in mind. But, you can also name it based on something you like, or combining two words to make it unique.

I think you should get your villagers first. It'll make things easier on you. That way, you can work around your villagers and not have unexpected animals move in to a bad area.

As for hacking, it's up to you. As long as you're careful in what you're doing, it's hard to mess up your save. Even then, you can make a backup of your town.
 
Hack is quite simple when you get the hang of it and it's a nice experience since you have an unhacked town.
