Did you care which day you started?

[Chicha]

Nah, I just started on whatever day I started playing. It would have been cool to start on particular dates but it's not a big deal.

 

[LinkToTheWorld]

No, didn't bother me. I did want to wait until Christmas but I got the game early, around Halloween, which I really wanted to experience in game.

Main town was set one day ahead and 4 hours behind. I did this so I could play events with the villagers and than spend time with my family. Changed the time because I didn't start playing until 9pm real time. I would have missed most of the events.

All my other town are set on different months. 4 fish off or another event in one day is too much. Right now I have a fall, May and December town. The last town for just growing weeds was set on January 1st, 2012. More time for TTing to grow weeds.

Nope I often rush into things and I can't wait too long until a certain date to play the game/make a new game since I always want to play animal crossing as soon as I load it up. So i'm not really fussed about what day I make it on. However at one point I was a little particular about what day I did make it on since it was one of my ex-friends birthdays on that day and tbh I didn't want to make it on a day that reminded me of them. Just nope, so I waited until the next day to make my town a day after their birthday.

Nope, I got my game on christmas day so the moment I played it was on Christmas haha

 

[drowningfairies]

Uh no?
I just started lol. Don't see a point in that?

 

[beffa]

100% yes, i started the day i got it 3 years ago so yeah it's just something i've built up and i want it to be something i've stuck with from the start

 

[piske]

I started on a specific day, I'm really weird and picky about dates so I literally waited to start my latest town XD

 

[Buttonsy]

I just started playing on the day I started playing.

 

[PoizonMushro0m]

I started all my Animal Crossing towns on the day I bought the game.

ACCF: July 6th, 2011

[al-tirah]

No. I started as soon as I found the map I want.

 

[kuraeh]

I don'tknow aandi ddon't care at all. Why would people car, though?

 

[Reese]

No, I mean I almost did with my third town because I wanted to start on January 1 but it took me three days to find a map I liked lol. But it felt disingenuous. I like being able to look at my TPC and see the actual date I started my town, the date becomes special to me because it's the day I started (if that makes sense?)

 

[SilkSpectre]

I did not TT so whatever day it was.

 

[moonbunny]

When I created my first town, I didn't care. I just started it on the day I got the game.

When I reset it, though... well, I already knew that I would tt a lot. I knew I would speed through the beginning stages of the game. I also knew that I don't like to tt too far into the future. So rather than starting my game on the real date and getting too far ahead of myself, I decided to tt six months into the past so that I could work towards the real date.

I figured that if I'm already going to fiddle around with my date settings, why not start my game on Halloween?

 

[Athelwyn]

I voted "no," because I've never started a town on a particular day on purpose. However, I did start my town of AHS on my birthday (Oct. 12) last year! I didn't plan it that way. I was just really excited to start the town, and I had some time to kill while my mom was baking my cake. Haha!

*Edited to add: I didn't receive the game for my birthday, I already had it, and just happened to start the town that day.

 

[Miele]

i just went with the day that i bought my game which was the 19th of january

 

[Yomochi]

I went with real time when I got the game since it was on my birthday 2 years ago (though tbh I probably wouldn't have even thought to start on another day at that time!) I'm happy though cause it makes my town feel more special to me (& more memorable!).

 

[sylviabee]

I specifically started my town on the 1st of the month!
