If a villager asks to move and you say they can, and then they say "This is a big decision so I had to give it some thought" or something like that, does that mean they're not moving?

It sounds like they're still leaving, but I'm not entirely sure.
You could try and talk to your other villagers and see if they mention rumours about that villager leaving. If they do, then they're going to move.

Well had means past tense, which means they were thinking about it and aren't thinking about it now aka they made their decision to move.

I had one of my villagers say that to me when I told him to go and he left as planned.
 
New Leaf's big thing is the grass actually erodes slightly EVERY time you load up the game--even if you don't go anywhere. So if you're doing lots of character switching or constantly saving and quitting and reloading it, the grass will be going away slightly each time.

It does grow back fairly quickly though--and 2 weeks without playing or doing much will usually grow it back nearly completely.
 
It also grows back if you don't walk on it for a while

Thank you so much. Glad I put paths up then. :)

That's horrible. Will it still erode in spots you have flowers? I just got my game so my grass is going to fade away because I am playing a lot. Anyway to stop this besides not playing?

Whaaaat, even if you don't go anywhere? Is there some kinda pattern to it or..?


Anyway, I have a question about PWPs. Is there a "best way" to get them suggested by villagers? I'm assuming it's like triggering any other ping, and emptying your pockets, etc... but does the villager friendship level have anything to do with it? Or maybe other requirements? I wanna know if I should start clinging to Hopper if I wanna unlock the Zen stuff XD

I just know the eroding extends from any brown spots.

I don't think friendship matters, but it did seem I got asked more often after hitting Perfect Town. Keep in mind you won't get suggested more than one a day though and you won't get any bridge suggestions if you already have all 3 bridges built.
 
When I was trying really hard for requests, I deposited all my money, completely emptied my inventory (even stuff in letters), and then went diving. I'd swim to the barrier and just sit there for 15 minutes, close my 3DS once I swam over and reopen it (to reset the "you should rest" timer) and then would go to the villager I was trying to get a request from. I know some people fill their inventory with like...wrapped gifts or seashells (as there's a chance a villager may just give you something) plus filling their letters (to prevent time capsules, though, I found they don't ask if my shovel is on the floor like everything else), but I just kept mine empty. Anyway, you can also dig holes around the character (in a diamond shape so you can still talk to them) to prevent them from moving--then just need to hope nobody else sees you.

If you want a specific one, you can always save while they are doing their "I wanna talk to you" dance (Sometimes I'll just save when I get to the water before I close and reopen my 3DS), and then reset if they offer one you don't want.
 
15 minutes? Really? o:

Because I usually hear of 5 minutes and that's how long I usually sit in the water for, and it seems to work.

5-7 minutes works if you don't care who it is. If you're going for the same person over and over, you need to do 10-15. I just do 15 since it guarantees it while I don't always get it to work with 10.

Oh, I didn't know that! Thanks for letting me know. Maybe this is a stupid question, but how does the 15 minutes make the same villager ping you? Does it like cycle through all the villager pings when you sit there for 15 minutes? >-<

No idea XD I'm guessing it just has a longer trigger because it's like "well this person just pinged them so..." but I have no idea how they set it. Just something I figured out when I was going to specific people because they would start to ping me like...every other go while I'd get a ping immediately from anyone else after like 5-7 minutes so...
 
If I give a villager a umbrella will they use it?
Also if i keep feeding items to a villager, will they get rid of there own things for mine?

Yes, but like with giving them clothes, it's not for certain that they will use the umbrella you give them.
Similarly, they can put up the furniture that you send them, but it's not a certainty.

Is there a time of the year trees stop producing fruit, or that I should do a year end harvest?
Nope.
