Same town Different times?

[D00M]

Okay, so there's something I'm stumped on. I made a character on my GF's ACNL game. We both have the 3DSXL and we share the cartridge. Now, every time she logs in she needs to switch the time because she's usually a day ahead of me. My character is fairly new and I just unlocked Kappa, so I don't know if this applies because I'm new, but I usually have to switch the in-game time to PM so it's correct.

Is there a way to prevent this or is it some kind of temporary thing because I'm new to town?

Thanks for the help in advance!

if you're using different DS to play the same cartridge, then it has to do with the DS internal clock. the game's clock reflects and moves based on the DS internal clock, so that would cause the game to fluctuate strangely based on the previous game time in the other DS. you can go into settings and change it so they match it.

but no, the only time the game switches the capabilities of in game play based on time is the very first time you arrive to a town: it ensures that the shops are open and all the villagers are awake.

Oh, you mean we have to be on the same MILITARY TIME. I had no idea, because mine would say 12:19 which I thought was regular time, but that meant PM on my DS. Didn't think they would force us to do that. I just changed mine to 0:19 because I realized her preference is Military Time.
