Has anyone still not gotten the police station and had the game since release?

Do you have the police station?

I still haven't gotten it... I do the trick all the freakin time but
It's always a task or a PwP ill never end up putting up.
I've had it since the release(US) and they won't FREAKIN request it!!!
Anyone else annoyed by this?
 
I got it almost a month after I got it on June 26th..? I got it in July near the 26th.

EDIT: I started June 20 and built my Police Station on July 26th.

ive had the game since release day and i dont think ive had it requested yet, ive only built a streetlamp, zen bell, museum 2nd floor, and currently trying to pay off the cafe.
 
I only just got my police station request TODAY (and I've had this game since June). I recently found a trick to "forcing" your villagers to request projects (PWPs), but out of sheer luck one of my townies just happened to ask for a police station while I was doing the daily routine. :P

I don't know if I can link videos here, but here are the instructions on how to "force" a request:

(1) It's best if you buy a Swimsuit. If not, hang out on the beach or a place where your townies will hardly go.
(2) Fill your pockets with bells, tools and other un-tradeable stuff (so that the "forced surprise" doesn't involve trading).
(3) Stay still for 5 minutes and avoid all contact with the townies.
(4) After staying for 5 minutes, run up to a random townie and they will "beep" before running towards you.


Apparently you can only get your townies to request a project a day, but I've heard different stories regarding that. The above trick works though, so maybe you could "force" a police station request out from your villagers. :)

I bought my game on the release, the project was suggested three months later (09.09), I didn't get around to building until the 27th though.

Perhaps you're forgetting to put bells or un-tradeable things inside your pockets? Make sure to only have these things in your pockets and you'll have better luck in forcing a request out of them.

I've been playing the game since the day it was released and I've forgotten exactly which month it was, but the police station was an early PWP suggestion, in fact, one of the first that I had. Probably way back in late July or early August. (I've never wanted it though, so I haven't built one and have no intention of ever building one.)
 
Why not? The cop lets you know if special characters are in town, and you can sometimes find rare items in the lost and found. Obviously it's your business, but it's one of my first stops of the day.
 
I have one, I actually got one pretty easily, so I feel bad for people that have tried really hard and haven't got it requested. Mira just walked up to me one day and suggested it, and I built it, and that was that. I didn't even have to try.

I've had the game since it came out and nope, no police station. But since I usually play around 30 to 45 minutes a day, if I'm lucky at least an hour on the weekends, I just have regular conversations with my villagers before running off to make bells by selling fruit, fish, and bugs.

You'll get the request eventually. Just take solace in the fact that if it's a PWP you don't want, it's just one less one out of the way for the police station.
 
I restarted a few months ago and hadn't ever gotten the police station, on that town and otherwise, so I voted no. The scores are now both totally even! :o
