BIGGEST New Leaf regrets

Spending 7 hours trying to soft reset for Pietro, then letting him go several months later. Argh, I should've just waited and picked him up from here,but I hadn't joined at that point XD
 
My biggest regret is my carelessness in TT accident and cause me to lost Zell...I got so upset that time and almost lead to resetting my whole town, but I didn't do it and now I am all over it =)
 
I did a lot of stupid thing in my town, I use to regrets about specially the villagers that I lost BTW it was more than 30 & losing a ton of bells form turnip stock, it was more than 2M also bad TT. but now
I have no regrets now XD, everything is perfect in my town now & i'm love it
P.S. Look at my signature to know why

Sending away Baabara..... I change my mind all the time as to who my dream villagers are, I used to think she was useless but now in my updated ideal roaster she'd be perfect for the snooty slot... I guess I'll have to settle for Willow, but I'd give anything to have my beautiful, sweet, gentle aunty Baabara back :,(
 
Now that I think about it, I do have a regret. I regret not working more to catch the King Salmon, Mitten Crab, Horseshoe Crab, and Tarantula when they were in season.
 
When I built the campsite, Biskit was my first villager. I came to really like him when I talked with him and decided that I wanted him to move in with me and my villagers. I was a novice at the time and did not know I had to pester campers into moving in; what I thought happened was he wasn't interested in my town even though, right before I selected the "MOVE IN OMG!" like option, he said he was thinking about moving in.

I've learned my lesson now... and it worked for getting Leonardo to move into town! I had to play a game with him, but it worked out in the end. Missing Biskit turned out to be a learning experience in disguise. :D
 
New Leaf is my first AC game, so I didn't realize the responsibility I was taking on when I was making my town. I regret my map and my mayors face and the fact that I key smashed when prompted to name my town. I regret that I didn't restart before getting attached to the villagers I had. However, I was pretty lucky I guess in nabbing Marshal, as he was the first villager to move into my town after I became mayor.
 
Biggest regret was not putting my DS high enough away from my 5 year old when I went to the toilet. I was gone for a minute, maybe even less than that and he had deleted my AC game off the memory card. Devastated!!!! I had a lovely village and some great villagers! However, I feel since I started again I have got better at it and learnt more so in a way it may have been a blessing in disguise :) It wasn't at the time though!
 
It's not a big deal I guess?. but I really miss Kid Cat. I was having a really hard time TT-ing Bella out and someone was holding Merengue for me and I really really wanted Merengue. So I let Kid Cat go because he pinged next and I had been trying to TT bella out for DAYS IRL.

I don't see how I could have done much different, but even though I like Rory a lot (my replacement for Kid Cat) I miss Kid Cat and wish I could have kept him and still gotten Merengue. I think if I had known a little more about TT-ing out villagers earlier, I might have been able to do it, but not with my knowledge at that time. I ignored Bella too much instead of befriending her.
 
Definitely not choosing a better beach. I have one of the weird maps where the beach is spit up and you have to go all the way around to get to the other side. It's a pain in the butt.
 
In August, when I was a noob, Redd gave me a boxed figurine and a love tester and Isabelle gave me all flower/heart/star boppers...I sold all of them to Reese because I thought they were ugly... e_e

****ck not plot resetting for m'bb renee ;n; & accidentally selling unorderables that I didnt know were unorderable
 
The only things I can really think of was when I accidentally sold some rare wallpaper from Sahara and trampling a couple of hybrids. I usually reset when this kind of thing happens but occasionally I prefer not to lose my progress from the last save.

I probably could have picked a more unique/cool name or a better layout but I love my town as it is and have put a ridiculous amount of work into it it, so I don't have any major regrets.
 
Once I bought a sloppy table from someone for like 500k and then accidentally sold it to reese and saved.
 
Right now, my biggest regret is where I decided to build my campsite. It's in the perfect spot for my lighthouse as it's over looking Kapp'n's dock, but I didn't think about that until it was too late.
 
I had been planning on replacing the two brick bridges in my town with fairy tale bridges, but I didn't realize that each bridge had a villager house that was too close to build a bridge near. So now if I demolish the bridges, I won't be able to replace them unless I move out Rosie and Zucker :mad:
 
Not getting my dream villagers before I put down a path and did the landscaping for my town. And not using the plot reset strategy more often to get new houses in non-awkward/infuriating/messing up my entire path kind of spots.
