I just finished my final Gracie fashion check. How many days after the last fashion check does it take for Timmy and Tommy to close up their store to renovate it?

The last fashion check doesn't set the date, it's 30 days from the last renovation and an additional 30k bells spent, AND four fashion checks passed. Whichever of those is last.

That makes sense, but how many days after the last requirement is filled?

The Nooklings announced the renovation the day after I completed my last fashion check. They closed up to renovate the day after that, as they usually do.
 
Does having some pattern paths and a ton of flowers make it less likely for fossils to spawn? For the last couple days I've only found 3 fossils instead of the four I usually found lying around Moonvale. And today I've only found two! Are they just hiding or did some tick to generate on a place a flower or path was and get canceled out? o.o

they're hiding. There will always be four (I supposed if you lay designs/plant flowers everywhere you'd prevent it) but the more flowers/designs/tree you have the harder they are to find.
 
I term used when a villager moves out, then 16 more of them move out, the original villager's data will be deleted and you can obtain the animal in your town again (although it won't remember you from what I've read).

Interesting, thank you :D


While I'm here, I'll ask my other question: How does making paths work? Is it simply laying down a design on the ground? If so, how do you make turns/curves look seamless? I want to lay some dirt, brick, or cobblestone paths but am very confused how this is done lololol!
 
@Brabus E73
Yep, you make paths by laying down a design. If you want curves/turns, you have to make another design which looks like a curve.
Making complex paths is a bit difficult as you often need several designs but can only have 10 in your inventory at a time...

On another note, there are lots of internet pages with QR codes, so you don't necessarily have to make them yourself.

With PWPs, do permanent buildings/Main Street buildings like club lol, the dream suite, and museum renovations count towards your max of 30 projects?

What are the parameters?
 
If I'm correct, things that are in Market Street do not count towards your project limit; only things you put in your actual main town. They also don't take up any space.
 
Anything that can't be demolished doesn't count towards the limit.
Which means cafe, police station and reset center don't count towards the limit.
 
Perfect! I was really hoping so because I have like 25 projects I wanted to do. That perm building thing was really adding a lot.

One more question... How many street lamps count as one?
 
Does anyone know any dream codes that have very pretty / fancy towns ? Or towns that have Marina or Fuchsia in them ?
Just looking for inspiration~
 
I'm having trouble finding any guides about villagers moving and getting villagers from other towns. Things like the best times to talk to a friend's moving-out villager, how to avoid a random one moving in instead, do random animals move in after your 10th villager, or must it be triggered by a camper/foreign villager? things like that. If anyone could help or link to a guide, that'd be great! I'm at ten villagers and one is moving out soon... and I'm not sure how much time I'll have after she leaves to make any decisions.

Not sure what you're asking, but each lamp counts as 1 PWP towards the limit.

I don't know of any guides off-hand, but I'll try addressing some of your questions:

the best times to talk to a friend's moving-out villager
On the day a villager moves out, they'll be in their house with their stuff all boxed up. Talking to a boxed villager in someone else's town will ensure that this villager moves into your town, assuming you have space (9 villagers or less).

do random animals move in after your 10th villager, or must it be triggered by a camper/foreign villager
The game will only give you 9 villagers. Your 10th villager must move in either from the campsite (by you talking to them and convincing them to move in) or from another town.

Villagers from another town can move in with you knowing, i.e. you talked to them when they were in boxes, or not, just through general online play or StreetPass with people when they have villagers moving out.

From what I know, the details of the latter (villagers moving in from playing online/StreetPass) aren't very well defined, but it definitely does happen.

how to avoid a random one moving in instead
Keeping in mind the above, the safest way to keep your 10th spot open is to keep StreetPass off, and not play online unless you're going to pick up a boxed villager from someone else's town.

If you really want to play online, you could ask the person you're playing with if they've had a villager 'go into the void' (i.e. a villager moved out, but no one picked them up) within the past few days, or if they have a villager in boxes/moving out soon. If they have, avoid playing with them in case the villager decides to settle down in your town.

I hope this helps.
 
Crap. It's my birthday today, so K.K. played K.K. Birthday for me tonight, but I realized afterward that my pockets were full... D: is he going to mail me the song?

He's supposed to mail you the song anyways, I heard.
 
Oh, okay. I've only requested one other song before (I always forget) so I guess I couldn't remember if he put it in your pocket or mailed it. Thanks.
