BIGGEST New Leaf regrets

My biggest NL regret was giving Flora my motherly statue by not paying attention when she asked for furniture. Gah give it back, Flora!
 
Okay this is going to sound really lame but I think it's terrible to have regrets because it will haunt you forever, but if I had to say, then I regret going on a two month animal crossing hiatus. I missed a lot of fish, bugs and events.
 
Not resetting for a cuter mayor and a perfect town layout when I first got the game.
I was impatient!
 
Accidentally TTing out the majority of my dreamies... I still have Alice and Velma though but the rest of them I lost to TTing. :(

Except Bonbon, which is my other big regret. She was in my campsite and that's when I met and fell in love with her, but I had the max number of villagers and I didn't think to find a villager to ping me, so I didn't get her.
 
I really hate my town name. I didnt think I was going to take this game so seriously so I let my friend name my town. Amurica... great.. haha
 
Wow countless things

Not doing plot reset trick for Mira ... Time traveling Olivia out ...

Getting pokemon X and losing Lucky and missing the holidays ... Where I put my cafe since I can't have a diagonal bridge now :/

Merengue was at my campsite

...but i had 10 villagers already =__=

Harry just HAD to move in from my friends town the same day and i lost the chance at one of my dreamies because of the ugliest villager in the game...

Ugh, Harry moved into my town today from a friend's town too! Well, his plot showed up. Willow just moved out a couple days ago and I was really looking forward to recruiting from the campsite again but I woke up today and was immediately greeted by his plot in front of my house. He's so freaking ugly. I already can't wait for him to move out, whenever he does.

Anyway my two biggest regrets are not choosing a better map and the name of my town.

Not knowing that I could change my face at the beginning of the game. There is one face that I like a whole lot better, but I am too attached to my town to just re-start. Plus, I've spent a lot of time in Teapot and this is my first AC game, so it is all part of the experience.
 
im not too happy where i placed my campsite, but what can you do
gotta roll with the punches now
 
I regret time-travelling in the first place.
Now I'm sitting here, trying to find people to hold my villagers ;;.
 
I regret mucking up the plot reset trick and now having one of my dreamies, Molly, right in front of my campsite. It's a challenge though and I've worked around it.
Also TTing wrong after I hadn't played for a while and therefore losing Astrid! :(
 
trying to get either Biff tell me to make the solar panel
or Timbra to tell me to make the tower

in the public works project
but i keep running into other villagers for a week now :(
 
Like a lot of people, naming my town something dumb (I got frustrated after I realized I only have like 8 characters) and not choosing my map better. My map doesn't work really well with the plans i had for my city, dangit.

(Too much invested to reset, tho. Just finished paying off my house!)
 
Time traveling, forgetting that I invited Bam to my town from the campsite.... He ended up being in the WORST. SPOT. EVER.
