Do you time travel?

For my real towns I have them set at different times so I can play all of them.
My main is one day ahead and is 4 hours behind. The only time I change the clock if I'm late.
The other one is in November and I'll change it for an event. Having Halloween and than the bug off in the other town took a lot longer. I rolled the clock back when I was ready for Halloween. Harvest Day is coming on Thursday and will be doing it again.

My harvest towns I TT a lot. It's just for growing the fruit back or getting trees for the golden axe. Two players are close to getting the golden axe.
 
I used to because I went camping (for a class trip) once and I missed a bunch of events that I really wanted to get back to... but then Sterling moved out bc I tted too much aaand I will never tt again xD
 
I don't do it in my town unless it's an emergency because I have had several bad experiences with time traveling (Once I accidently set the clock back a year instead of a day and my town was overrun with weeds, my flowers were all dead, villagers had moved away, etc) that I do not wish to repeat. If I forgot to buy turnips on Sunday and it's like Monday or Tuesday, I'll normally TT back to Sunday but that's pretty much it.
 
Ok, while I try my best to not time travel, I do time travel at certain times. When it's late at night and I still needed to shop, I'd time travel in order to do that. The most important thing I time travel for though is when I need to get villagers out, but that's it.

However, I did time travel to April Fool's Day once to get all the pictures of my villagers...hey, not all my villagers are staying and I want to get pictures of them before they go :rolleyes:. On a side note, has anyone ever thought of starting a picture farm?? Time travel to easter and then gather all of the pictures, transfer them, then reset!
 
Yeah, i TT all the time. Don't have time to do otherwise XD
When I'm done workingon my town I'll stop.
I only do 1-2 days at at time, unless someone is moving out and I want them gone then I'll TT to that specific day.

I TT back in time as many days as I want since it only counts as one.
 
I used to TT a lot more when the game first came out because I wanted to get all the shops and tools unlocked. Now I TT for help with landscaping. I'll TT at most a week day-by-day and stock up on bushes, build new PWPs, and so on.
 
I time travel to get my mail and complete pwps so I can move on to the next one. The most I've done is four days ahead of the current date, but that was because a streetpass villager moved on top of my orchard.

I just did right now to give Genji away to someone who really wanted him. Now I'm returning to the current date I was on. April. Yeah...don't ask! I have several towns and none are on the current date...

I usually don't TT more than a few hours for the shops to be open or to get a good bug hunting time on the Island. But when I have a villager somebody wants I TT them out or TT to hold back to hold the villager.
 
In my main town, I don't tt at all. But, in my cycle town, I'll not only tt but I will also reset it whenever I am bored :)
 
I don't usually on my main I might if I didn't get to play that day until late and then it would only be a few hours to open my shops back. I have tried to TT to get Freckles out, but I got too nervous about losing other dreamies. But I do have a cycling town that all I do is TT. I'm about to reset it and make a permanent second town, so I probably won't TT much. I have almost TT'd full circle a whole year in my cycling. I'm in April right now.
 
I used to time travel to get rare items for my friends. I don't time travel anymore because my town was messed up badly and I restarted my game...
 
I have 2 towns:

A main town where its neat and organized.
[Dont TT]

A cycle/supplying town where its still organized but stuffs on the ground.
[I TT]
 
I time travel. I only have one town, and I truly enjoy it. Usually I stay within the same day, I only adjust the time to get items or to get to events, or just because I prefer mid-afternoon and not 10 PM when most of my shops have been shut down for the day.
 
Yes, the amount of time I travel can be years or just hours depending on what I need to get done. I usually just TT a day or two, though.
 
i only tt when i'm impatient about a villager moving in. when i first started my town, i went ahead and tt'd all of my starting villagers in.
 
Yes I do ^^ Sometimes I get impatient with upgrades, or ordering things. I try not to go too far to avoid loosing a villager.
 
All the time, open, check stores, next day, check stores, talk to villagers, next day, stores, next, villagers, next, and so on xP

It gets too boring to be in one day, I'm way too impatient for anything xD
