Oooo thanks guys!
For anyone else whose curious, it’s purple background and purple border




Also
Another question.
What is the closest looking item to a dagger?
I’m designing a Romeo and Juliet room and I kinda need a dagger.

I can't think of anything that resembles either a rapier or a dagger in game, but definitely think of using the Pirate Armor and maybe the Lon Lon Milk as a bottle of poison. c:

I ended up doing a vinegar bottle for the poison since the Lon Lon milk is very noticeable in my dark room, but
Oh I really like the pirate armor idea!

Uhhhh, just gonna post this question here since I don't think it would need me to create a new thread, but:

During my little session of getting villager moving rumours, I was told my one unwanted villager, Dora, was thinking of moving. She pinged me when I got up to her, and said she was moving out on April 4th. I replied, "I understand" and she acted like she was going to be moving, but ended with "I need to give it a little more thought" or something along this.

Question is, is Dora moving or did she pull a "no u" on me?

Yeah she did, they sometimes do that. You could reset and ignore her ping if you are not against resetting. This way she'll be moving without being able to tell you, hence can't change mind

Bleh. Second time an unwanted villager did this to me! XD

Can anybody, please, share their island beetle hunting setup? I would be grateful if it would be in a picture/simple scheme form. Can't figure out how to plant my palm trees. I got rid of everything, except for two trees in tme middle for some bugs, as I'm a still filling in my encyclopedia and I've left a few trees on both sides at the northern side.

Are there any resource on town tune music?=)

Thank you for the answers=)

Hi, I'm not able to take a photo of my island set up as I'm visiting dream addresses/towns at the moment. But one set up is here.

Mine is more like a "(" shape of the trees spaced out on one side and ")" on the other---no bushes, trees, or flowers in the center because it affects the spawn rate of other insects. Without those in the center, I only get tiger beetles and hermit crabs (maybe a wharf roach? I can't fully remember but definitely the previous two mentioned). The beetles and stags spawn at a decent rate in my experience. I placed my trees so I'm able to get the beetles from even a diagonal angle.

As for onsite town tune resources, there's an unofficial thread by one of our lovely members. :3 They're pretty great and have even done my current town tune (if you'd like to request a specific one).

Hello! I’ve been playing for awhile, but I’ve never visited another town (except in dreams) or had anyone visit my town because I don’t want random villagers moving to my town (I only have 9 villagers) and I don’t want any of my villagers to leave. But I want to start visiting other towns, so I have some questions.

1. Is it true that if I visit another town, one of my villagers will try to leave but I won’t get a villager from the other town? And vice versa? As in, the moving villager will follow whoever visits the other town?

2. If one of my villagers decides to move to the other town, will they ask me before moving and give me the chance to say no? Or will they just leave?

Thank you! If there’s already a thread about this, feel free to send me over there. Stay fabulous!

Well, the good news is that you cannot lose a villager simply by having someone visit your town or by visiting their town. I think that was a feature in older games, but not in New Leaf. Villagers will decide to move and ping you like normal, meaning you always have 10 days to stop a villager from leaving.

However, if you have less than 10 villagers it is possible to pick up a villager from another player's void. The void is where villagers that have moved out of another player's town sort of 'live' and any online interaction with that player means that you have a chance to pick one of them up. So if you visit their town, they visit your town, or you streetpass them, and you have space for a new villager, you may get one randomly.

That's the short version, but hopefully it helps.

Thank you for the clear answer! I shall be sure to keep that in mind.

Does anyone have Teddy or Savannah in their town? I fell in love with them in PC and no one seems to have them in their town or their amiibo card. I’ve only seen like one person with Teddy in their town and that’s it.

I know I've definitely seen people around with Savannah and Teddy, and I personally have both their cards (but I mean I did collect all Series 1-4). If you're looking to move them into your town, I'd definitely suggest posting a thread in the Trading Plaza forum!

I got ten seashells today as a welcome .
I thought we only got these when we first sign up?

 

[Stella-Io]

If you mean tbt, the site itself, (this is posted on the ACNL simple question as board) we get 10 when we fist sign up to the site. After a 2 year anniversary (probably what yours is) we get 10 more seashells.

I have a very dumb question, but I'll still ask it.
There is QR code machine that allows you to scan QR codes of preffered designs. So far I was able to scan only shirt designs, but I've seen single designs, standing on easel. How to scan such designs? It is only one pattern, not four. i know, it is dumb, dumb, dumb.

If I’m understanding you right, the pattern has to be specifically that; so, for instance, if you had a shirt or dress design (the four) you would only ever be able to get a shirt or dress. Likewise, if it’s a single panel design, for an easel or flag or whatever, it’ll only be the single panel. Hopefully that helps!

My question is with regards to the international island. Since it’s connected to WiFi, is it only ever the actual month it is IRL? I only ask because I’m missing a deep sea creature that I won’t be able to catch until like November, and I only need three more creatures to complete the catalogue. I don’t time travel, either, so there’s not much else I can do if so.

 

[Stella-Io]

Nope, the IN'T Club Tortimer island is summer only, even thou it is over WiFi. That would be kinda cool thou, an autumn island.

Aw man! Now that you mention it, I do remember hearing that before; guess I just forgot so I could get my hopes up lol. I’ll have to wait or figure something else out, then.

You can catch them in other players' town that is in that month/season.
