Have you ever reset intentionally?

[Jinglefruit]

Thought I'd ask after what just happened to me. Have you ever reset and what was the real reason you didn't tell Resetti?

I just got back from a friends town, (so I knew my town had saved) and thought I'd re-place my police station. - I cancelled it yesterday to move it. Took Isabelle out to the new spot, scoped it out how I wanted it, found the right location - had bordered it with flowers. And then when I agreed with Isabelle... She put it a space behind the preview! Crushed 5 of my bushes behind my layout and one of the orange lillies that was on the back bit of the border. Then because there isn't anymore 'is this okay?' checks she trolls off merrily leaving me no way to get my bushes back that I painstakingly got to grow in a line after they kept dieing over and over, and my Police station not where I want it. <_<
And to add to that, if I did decide to just relocate the bushes - I was going to. I would still have to wait an extra 24 hours, AGAIN to finally have my police station. ~ again because as I said I cancelled the project before, had a day where I couldn't play AC and the day it was suggested to me I was already building something. Not waiting another day for this.
RESET!

Though I had unlocked the surveillance centre already due to falling asleep while playing and my 3DS not lasting through the night.

But yeah, anyone else had something peeve them to the point of reset? Did you lose much in doing so?

I had to reset because a villager who wanted to move out told me and when I encouraged him to leave he told me he'd stay instead >3> Reset...

When I was selecting the spot on which to construct the coffee shop, I picked a nice, open spot right near my path so that visitors could easily find it. In the preview, it appeared not to block any part of the path, so I agreed to the spot. However, when I walked behind the spot where the gyroid was, I realized the coffee shop would cover a big chunk of my pathway. So whenever you walked behind it, you would disappear behind the building. For that reason, I had to reset. D:

Were there ever serious consequences when you reset... like losing/corrupting a Save file? It's def. useful; I always try to Save @ important moments in the game so there would be less to catch up on if I need to reset.

Did that work? Does this mean I am suffering Eugenes creepiness longer than I could have if I just reset when he changed his mind! o:

Yeah, I feel the preview on the larger buildings should allow you to pan the camera or something. I found with my police staion I wanted to know whether you could see it from the other side of the river, and if I could have judged how far back it was before I wouldn't have had to place it and cancel it the other day. :/

 

[Mairmalade]

A couple times I've placed public works projects (ones that couldn't be removed) and a few seconds later I realized the placement was a bit off from where I wanted. Reset!

- - - Post Merge - - -

I'm not the only one either I see.

 

[Sheepish]

Just once. I ended up placing the cafe one block away from where I actually wanted it to go, so I just reset, haha.

I reset and then I triggered him wanting to talk to me again, and when I told him to go the second time that day he agreed to leave.

I reset once to unlock the Resetti Public Works Project :X I don't even want to build it I just wanted to unlock the ability to do so.. I'm weird

And who is hating on Eugene? I love that little Koala.

 

[Meltd0wn]

I haven't reset in this game yet, but I used to on AC:WW.

and as for misplacement of buildings when selecting the spot, do they actually shift from where you stand when you talk to Isabelle?

I know that she always tells me exactly how many spaces back and how many spaces to each side the project will be, so I make sure I am standing in that exact spot after I layout the area by digging guide holes and so far it has been exactly where I planed. (I have done this for the Fountain, Campground and Cafe)

I shall keep this in mind. Though I have already had one villager say they are going to leave and then with no explaination they stayed. I kind of presumed if they were going to stay it'd stay the same no matter what.

I'm glad my batteries ran out the first time, cause I wouldn't have thought resetting would reward you with a PWP otherwise. Though I guess if that didn't happen I'd have just unlocked it today anyway. xP

And in my Alt. town Eugene is a creeper. He looked alright to me when I met him, but he rarely seems to say anything nice to me, and the only time he did was when he decided not to move out because he wanted to become my best friend and said he wouldn't leave until he managed this. 8/ Weirdly in my main town my Smug villager is Zell, whom I love and most conversation go completely the other way with him. There's only a few odd things I've heard both of them say.

I'm fairly certain that the preview shown what I wanted, as I had moved her all around the top of my town to find a suitable place. But it was a little confusing as for some reason it would only show the flowers within 2 spaces of the plot, and not the ones on the south closest to my screen. I didn't notice any shift when she put the plot down, I was more focused on the gaping hole left in my bushes.

Well for me it didn't turn out that way, he moved out and someone took him as he was packing lol. After he agreed to move I just kept ignoring him, but maybe what you have is a glitch or rare occurrence... I don't know. None of my villagers have done that, and two have left.

 

[intropella]

For public works projects purposes. I have to place it, once the gyroid is there. I just inspect the surroundings and see if it's perfect or not. If it's not then RESET!! I'm going to build resetti last when I'm finished all my public work project. haha

 

[ForgottenT]

I reset when Velma told me that she was not gonna leave anyways, I was like screw that ****. xD

 

[sodappend]

I reset twice intentionally when I was trying to place my police station.

My other resets are from me falling asleep with my 3DS open and unplugged whoops

 

[MissHappyNarwhal]

Only when I've wasted my money on trying to get a certain hair color, only to get the one I didn't want. I must have reset five times before finally getting red hair!
Thank goodness I don't have the Reset center. I find it relaxing to be able to reset at will. :3

 

[Gizmodo]

Yes. i told Drago to move, and he said he would be staying to become better friends, so i reset and the next time i told him to go, he said he would

 

[X2k5a7y]

I accidentally told a villager to move, but I didn't want them to move.
So, I had to reset or lose them.
There was no option.
It was a life or death situation.
There was no control.
No time. Nothing left.
Everything was bare.
I had no decision to make but to press the damn power button!
So, I did, Resetti yelled at me, and life was grand.

 

[biker]

In the past I used to reset when shampoodle ruined my hair, just because i was too lazy to see a proper hair guide.

 

[Tap Dancer]

I save my game before going to Shampoodle. If I get a hairstyle or color I don't like, I reset. God forbid I just wait until tomorrow to fix it, right? LOL. I always use a guide, but sometimes it just doesn't look as good on me as I thought it would.
