Help!

[Jordon]

So my villager, Rod asked me to get signatures. I had a friend who I could go into their town but because of different timezones and the fact he's younger than me and still in school, by the time he was free, it was half past 11 in my town.

By the time I got all 6 signatures and got back to my town, it was after midnight and Rod is now sleeping! Now what do I do?!

Oh no! I think you may have lost the chance to turn that task in
At least I think so, because they always say "by the end of the day" (unless it's late and they specifically state that it can be done the next day). I'm sorry that happened!

I don't know if time traveling back to before he started sleeping would work but you could give it a try

 

[Jordon]

Time Traveling may lose my signatures

Time Traveling may lose my signatures

Silly they won't
Just Time travel back Rod goes to asleep and your all good then just time travel to your regular time
I have done it so don't worry

Beside because of the train station it saves when you go to another town and back
So signatures are fine

Hope you sorted it now but if that happens again just tt back a few hours. As Zebraqueen says, it saves when you get off the train so whatever you've brought with you won't just disappear if you change the clock.

that sucks. Hopefully he might still be available to collect them tomorrow?

 

[LinkToTheWorld]

The only thing you could do now would be to change the time back to the previous day before you load up again today. Just depends how much you wanted to fulfill the request. Sadly if you try to give it to him today he will say something along the lines of he already got them from somewhere, so unfortunately that wouldn't work.

If you TT back a few hours (within the same day, the same day is up to 5.59am the following day, in acnl the new day starts at 6am) - you would be OK. (presuming you don't hold turnips)

But whatever, it really doesn't matter much about fulfilling the request - talk to Rod and see what he says.
If you are not OK about TT, don't, just send him a letter with a gift and you are back to the same friendship level as you were.

Signature requests are a pain - I rarely do them, (& I have more than one town so could DS to DS, but its still a pain).

When a villager asks you again & its difficult/late to find someone, just refuse the request (as opposed to accepting and not completing) - I think outright refusing is neutral on the friendship ladder.
Its a charming relaxing game, no need to worry over it.
