15 days of Perfect Town status and time traveling?

[ClaireSprinkleSwirl]

I just finished my 10th required PWP to have everything for the perfect town status, and I was wondering how the 15 days were counted (to get the golden can), aka if time travel messed it up or not.

Example, we're Saturday, 5:28pm as right of now.
If I time travel to Sunday, play a bit, then come back to Saturday(today), will it count as one day? two? none (will it start the countdown over, from zero?)

Since I have noticed some stuff don't always "update" (like fossils?) when you go back and forth, I was wondering how it also affected the 15 days strike.

I'm not sure if it really makes sense but I hope someone can clear things up for me

I don't think time traveling will work, as you can only have like one weed in your town per day. So I would not time travel during the period of time. The 15 days I think do not have to be consective, (even though most of mine were though, but i'm not sure). I hope this helps.

Do you mean we can only have 1 weed at most for it to count? I thought it was less than 10 (same as for dropped items?)

Also do they inevitably spawn everyday? (I don't think I've ever been "up to date" on how weeds work in AC games haha)
I have the Beautiful Town ordinance so I know this helps but I don't know exactly how much/what it does day to day, concerning weeds^^
I think I see one once every few days only so I'm guessing it wouldn't be too hard to keep up with, but I can't be sure.

But I guess I'll avoid time traveling during that time anyway, thanks!

Beautiful Ordinance limits your weeds per day to 1, regardless. TTing should be fine, and if you TT back a day, it'll count as two. But it depends, the day should only reset if you're 6am or later in the day and go backwards.
If you're 2am on Saturday and TT back to Friday, it won't count as traveling a day at all.

I was under the assumption that it did have to be 15 consecutive days though, maybe I'm wrong?

I was mainly thinking of doing that in a forward-backward way, one or two days at most (as in, I believe(???) if you go one day and back to current day multiple there's nothing new anymore (in stores, or fossils etc)
So do a 2 (3 full) day pattern so it keeps spawning even though I'm not going too far either in dates;

Like, all in the same irl day:
Saturday, Sunday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Saturday(...) with Monday-Saturday being a complete "refresh" of all options(stores, fossils etc) ?

I'm actually not sure if my explanation is clear, nor if it actually is what I'm thinking (like, if I'm wording it correctly and not writing all opposite to what I actually meant to say, it's late and my brain doesn't process English that well sometimes :'))
but I hope it still somewhat makes sense.

I was also thinking it was 15 consecutive days? It would totally make sense.
And good to know the ordinance makes weeds spawn rarely indeed.

Then I'll either not travel at all or test it out and even if it "resets" the counter then it doesn't matter and I won't travel more after that^^
