I'll try the bridge. Standing on the beach didn't work

By bridge I assume you mean the dock to the island right?

Yes exactly. I was going to call it a pier, but that didn't sound right, so I went with bridge

 

[oath2order]

Yeah, pier doesn't work for the trick either. Gotta swim :/

 

[Sour of Abnaxus]

Ah, sorry about that. Come to think of it, I think the reason I thought that worked just as well, is that I'd been using that method, but instead of the normal 5 minutes swimming (of floating), I'd be away for 15-20 minutes. Which is enough to get pings if the device has been closed while standing on the dock.

 

[oath2order]

Oh, you gotta close the 3DS for it to work on the dock?

 

[Sour of Abnaxus]

Oh, you gotta close the 3DS for it to work on the dock?

I think that would work anywhere. It depends on you having been inactive for a certain stretch of time. So it's great if you don't feel like coming back every 5 minutes but still would like to get some pings. But you have to be away for a rather long time and it's not as effective as swimming. It's probably about as effective as randomly getting pings from just roaming about in your town with the exception that you're not actively doing much.

 

[oath2order]

Ah.

I'll try to stick with swimming. It's a little quicker. I still need 41 PWPs anyways >.>

Ok, so I have invited a villager from someone else's town to move in today. But, I have my 9th villager moving out tomorrow. (Meaning I'll go down to 8 villagers) So I'm a little worried because I hear that a villager invited from another town will move in the next day, but that's when my 9th villager will be in boxes.... So does that mean the invited villager won't move in? D:

The maximum number of villagers you can have is 10, so it shouldn't be a problem because when the invited villager moves in, it'll be the 10th villager since your 9th villager is in boxes. Hopefully people can back me up on this though as I'm not really familiar wih moving villagers.

Hopefully someone else does. I was just concerned that my villager being in boxes would interrupt a villager moving in. o;

So I can't seem to find a concrete answer to this online. I have Genji in my town and he's passed on his "otaku" catchphrase to almost everyone, and bad shirts are spreading like a cold. Apparently if you talk to Isabelle and complain about your villagers, you can reset their shirts, as well as their greetings/catchphrases. I did that for all of the villagers I wanted to, yet it didn't change anything. I waited until the next day, but none of them had changed back.

So I'm just wondering if this actually works? Does complaining about them reset this? Do I have to wait a certain amount of time, keep on complaining until it happens, or maybe only file one complaint at a time? I really don't understand how it works. Thanks in advance!

 

[Sour of Abnaxus]

@Diableos
I think it might not have a 100% success rate, if it works at all. But you could try to send nice shirts to your fashion victims. They don't always put on clothes you send to them, but they often do.

Hopefully someone else does. I was just concerned that my villager being in boxes would interrupt a villager moving in. o;

I don't think your invited villager will move in the next day regardless, so you should be alright. Even if he/she would have moved in the same day, I figure it would get pushed a day forward.

Thanks! I actually have another question. If I TT ahead one day to see if he's moving in, or to the next day after that, will it mess things up because Erik is still in boxes in the town I invited him from? Like, would I have to wait for him to be completely gone in the other players town before. I can go ahead one or more days? (Sorry for these questions?I've never done this villager trading stuff before~)

 

[Sour of Abnaxus]

When you TT forwards, you're basically just speeding things along, so nothing would happen that wouldn't have happened anyway. The date Erik gave you is still the same. The only scenario in which that would change is when you TT backwards.

Question I currently own one 3ds and one ACNL game cart. I am considering purchasing the Zelda 3ds this friday. What would happen if I took my game cart and put it in the new Zelda 3ds would everything be fine? Like nothing happens to my town? My FC would change, but my dream address? Could I then use my 30.00 credit (SMTIV/FE) and purchase ACNL digital on my original 3ds and start a new town and be OK? I'd like to have an extra town to cycle villagers. Do I have this all correct or missing something? Thanks!

Everything would be fine if you took your game cartridge and put it in the new Zelda 3ds! You can purchase a digital copy on your original 3ds, but if I remember correctly ACNL is $34.99 in the e-shop, so you'd need a little bit more credit to buy a digital version of the game. You have it all correct

How do you get the final upgrade for Timmy and Tommy Nooks shop?

Pass 4 of Gracie's fashion checks and spend 100k bells in the T.I.Y., which must also have been open for at least 30 days.

Gracie Fashion Checks? How do I do those?

Gracie Fashion Checks? How do I do those?

Once you spend 70k at the T.I.Y., Gracie starts to randomly show up in your plaza. She'll give you a fashion theme (like Sporty or Official) and you have to put on clothing that matches that theme to try and impress her.

Here's a link with more info about which clothing corresponds to which style:
