Hey! Just got the game about two/three days ago? I'm super confused with the rarity of stuff, what MEOW coupons are, how to trade villagers, what the heck TBT is, the camping grounds, etc. Could anybody help me?
 
I've been playing since 2013... ask me anything! ^-^

Thanks! Do you think you could help me with the questions above? I just got New Leaf and I played Wild World for the longest time, so I'm super duper confused.
 
1. Rarity depends on a lot of things. If you can get them from Timmy and Tommy and you can order them from your catalog they wont be as rare, but when you cannot order them or you can only get the items through special means then they will be more rare. Anything specific you wanna know the rarity of?

2.MEOW coupons are another form of currency that are used only in the campground to buy things from Harvey and Rv's. They can be exchanged for bells through the ABD at the post office. 1 MEOW = 3000 Bells.

3. TBT is the currency on this website. Mostly useless unless you want to buy things for your profile.

4. The campground, just think of it as a shop. its a area where you can visit RV's to buy furniture and Harvey sells things as well.

Oh! How do you earn TBT?

Just by posting on the forums, voting on polls too. And you get some for your birthday! That's all I know of.

People trade bells they earn here on the forums for in-game bells too. 1 tbt goes for ~200k in game, so it's a pretty nice way to earn in game money to me. ;P
 
Okay! Here's some information!
Rarity of stuff: There are some items that can only be received in Japanese/European games, some that are DLC, some that can only be obtained via amiibos, and items that are just plain hard to get. For example, the Sanrio items can only be obtained by scanning in a Sanrio villager amiibo card--those aren't sold in the United States (assuming you're in the US and not Europe), and on Ebay the cards are sold at inflated prices, so that makes the Sanrio items very hard to get, thus making them rare. There are also items such as the 24-hour shop items (or the 7/11 set, as it's frequently referred to as). The 24-hour shop set was released years ago as DLC in Japan, thus making those items rare, too. Also, the items that are hard to get are considered rare, too. Items from Gracie's boutique (which is unlocked after upgrading Timmy and Tommy's shop enough times), items from the Bug Off and Fishing Tourney, and holiday items can be considered rare.
What a MEOW coupon is: MEOW coupons are a type of currency in New Leaf. On your Town Pass Card (it's the little red tab at the top of your bottom screen), there are some initiatives. They're things like, say, talk to your villagers, catch a specific fish, sell some stuff, or put furniture in your house. Once you do those little chores, go to the CAT machine located in front of your town hall, and it will give you some MEOW coupons, which you can use to buy items from Harvey at the campground (which I'll talk about in a minute.)
How to trade villagers: I don't personally do villager trading, so I may not be the best helper on this one, but basically people like to use glitches or time travel (which is setting the game's clock to be a different time), and have their villagers move out. On the day the villager is moving out, their belongings in their house will be boxed up, and people will invite other people in their town to invite the villager to move into their town. Sounds complicated but it's really not. If you have amiibo cards, you can also use those to kick villagers out and replace them with the one on the card. People will sell amiibo villagers too.
What the heck is TBT: TBT (also referred to as BTB) is the currency here on The Bell Tree forums. People generally want to use TBT to purchase in-game items from other members, but can also be used to buy collectibles (little stickers that appear in your sidebar-- if you look at mine you'll see a pear, a cake, and a candy collectible), art (look at the Museum Shop thread and some people will take commissions and draw things for you), and many other things. IGB (in-game bells) are also used when doing item/villager trades, but people typically will want TBT. Also, you can't use IGB to purchase collectibles, and very rarely will people take IGB for art. To transfer TBT, all you have to do is look at someone's sidebar where it says "bells" and tap the bells. A little window will pop up asking you how much you want to send them. Type it in and the person will be notified via Private Message. The site will award you TBT bells for posting, but the easiest method is selling stuff in the Re-Tail forum. The common conversion rate for TBT to IGB is 1 TBT equals 200,000 IGB.
The camping grounds: On your town map on the bottom of your screen, there should be an arrow pointing to one of the sides. Go over there and walk up the slope to find Harvey's camp ground. You can use your MEOW coupons there to purchase items you won't find anywhere else. Also, if you scan in an amiibo, that character's RV will pop up at the campground, and you can buy stuff from their RVs. To unlock amiibo compatibility, you wil have to find Wisp's lamp. Wisp will stop you one random day as you're walking in town and ask you to come find him. Once you do, all you have to do is pick up his lamp, take it to your house, and then do what he says.

I hope this helps! Tell me if there's anything else you need.
 
Hey, welcome :,) I'm fairly new to the game as well but I've been keeping up with it since it came out so I can help as much as I can wi in-game stuff, when it comes to this website though there isn't much I can do since I'm still getting the hang of it. I just wanted to pop in and say hello, though!
 
Welcome to the forums :) I'm completely new here too, I wish I could help but I don't know half of what's going on lol but it sure is fun to be here and learn new things
