Share Your Story, one of my fails was I didn't know you could plot reset a camper so I let Francine Mave in anywhere and she moved in front or behind my one and only bridge. But I let her stay for a Long time but I let her go in the end :(

Share Your Story.
 
I vaguely knew about plot resetting when I started my town, but I neglected to check with a new character. I loaded up my game and Boone moved in, right next to me and in front of a bridge. I was fine with it at the time, but now that I've got other bridges available, I want to demolish the original cobblestone one and build a brick one. Oh well. :)

I also forgot to save my new character when Rowan moved in. I was like "oh cool this a nice spot for him time to change to my mayor!" and quit without saving. He ended up moving next to me which is fine, but now there's a cluster of houses right in front of the Town Hall looking onto the river:

Boone | me | Rowan | Hamphrey
(one weird Jock sandwich???)

Just like in real life, river front houses seem to be prime property. :p
 
I invited Molly from the campsite with the intention of keeping her as a permanent resident. 2 days later I booted up the game with a new character but I couldn't find Molly's house plot anywhere. It happened to be the day a fishing tourney was held so I thought the event postponed her move in date.

I loaded the game with my regular Mayor and there was Molly's house plot right in front of Town Hall. I had planned to landscape that area so I eventually had to let her go :(
 
well I just did one now lol


plot resetting for blanche for 12 hours
went back two days by mistake, she puts her plot

it's not an awful spot but too close from where i wanted erik's house

well now i gotta live with it because no way i'm cycling 16 villagers ever again
 
When I was new with plot resetting, I didnt read everything but just went with it. I had muffy as a camper and convinced her to move in. I knew this was the day so I made a new character and scoured the town for the roped in plot. I was surprised I found none so I decided to log-in with my alt character. I then saw her roped lot in a pretty decent location but not exactly where I wanted, so I tried to do the whole plot resetting and realized I cant because once a permanent character logs in then the plot is set.
 
The first and second (and hopefully last time) I screwed up plot resetting: A couple of months ago I was plot resetting Dizzy, and got distracted by Netflix and accidentally began to load my Mayor. As soon as I noticed my mistake, right as Isabelle started to say "Let's prepare your town" I turned off my DS. Unfortunately Dizzy's house was set, and it landed right next to Retail, blocking a bridge and ruining a natural paths and a huge chunk of the bushes and trees that lined it. I was gutted, Dizzy was a villager I'd wanted for ages. Luckily I always have two temporary villagers in town so I can meet new faces, so I moved them out to get Dizzy to ping and moved into my storage town (he's still living there happily and I visit him often). It took a whole day and evening to fix everything up again, and I got back up to 9 villagers and figured I could leave it for the night and pick up a 10th villager when a good opportunity came up in the near future. Right as I loaded my game for the last time that evening to check everything, I saw a new plot right in the middle of my garden and path...I'd picked up a voided villager from my storage town!! And it was Spork!! I was so freaking mad, I had to do the whole thing all over again the next day to sort my town out. Luckily Spork pinged to move pretty quickly, but I spent basically a whole weekend fixing my dumb mistakes! ><

Well, only one and it wasn't that bad. I forgot to plot reset for Chrissy the Rabbit and she moved in a decent spot next to the Re-Tail pond, however that's where I wanted to place my paths but what eve's.
 
I was plot resetting for Fuchsia for about 5 hours, and then accidentally loaded up my mayor.

So I had her move out and I cycled through again, after just doing it the day before as well.

You have some serious patience, my friend! ;-;
 
When Muffy moved in thanks to StreetPass, she permanently destroyed my Lychee Forest. Now Frita lives there. And I was so angry at Muffy, I accidentally TT'd Rodney out. At least he's happily living in my new town. And that was in August.
 
I didn't know about plot resetting when I started, so one of my villagers plotted right where I wanted a bridge.
 
i had been plot resetting with mira and something went wrong i'm assuming. she was moving in at the start of the game so i kept plot resetting her until i eventually found a proper spot. well, after 2 cycles of resetting, she disappeared. no one ended up moving in that day at all and i'm still not sure what went wrong. :confused:
