Wow this is really useful! I wish I knew about this when I started playing new leaf. Maybe for the next game they will have this same system of acres and them I can plan how I want my town to look like even better. New leaf was the first town that I tried to create a nice looking village but there are still problems with villagers moving in places that I don't want them to go. They always end up destroying flowers or paths. I hope in the new games we can choose where the villagers go. If we are the mayor, then I think it's only reasonable that we can deside where the villagers can move in.

ahh! Yeah I noticed that it looked similar to position B too! Glad we solved that mystery! My last plot reset will definitely be a breeze now that I have this information (I can remove some PWPs from the plaza acre and the train station) thank you so much for this post c:

Thank you for finding this!! As soon as someone translates this, it will finally confirm the theory! ;v;
I posted explaining spot B if you missed it~

Yup, I happened across this info a few months back when I got my second ACNL game and it was definitely super helpful when it came to planning my town! Actually went through the trouble of plotting my town map and painstakingly laying out PWPs to manipulate where my villagers were plotting: http://imgur.com/e63feUX 
My only problem now is that the villager in the top-right corner moved away and I'm trying to get a villager to move into the exact same spot. I have PWPs placed in town so that the only places where the plot can land are 6 possible locations in the top-right area, but the most frustrating thing is that not once has the plot landed where the old villager's house was. The spacing between the houses also makes it impossible for me to put any more PWPs down, so that's incredibly frustrating.
Hoping more people can make use of this information though, it's pretty great!

Omg I love your hand-drawn map layout! It shows that you spent a lot of time on planning your town! Maybe you could try the full shut-down method where you power off your 3DS completely to alter the plot patterns to get him to move into that one spot? I find it very effective for plot resetting! Best of luck getting them into that spot

The full shut-down method is when you plot reset but instead of just pressing home and exiting out of the game, you shut your 3DS off entirely, am I correct??
Never tried this method, does it rlly alter the plot patterns??? Maybe I should try this XD
@Meilumi WOW amazing layout planning! I am trying to do the same thing, but i use Photoshop lol

Yes that is correct!
Apparently it has worked for a lot of people, and although the last time I plot reset I really didn't notice it because I had so many spaces, I do agree that there is a recurring pattern when you plot reset!

Wow, thank you so much haha

Crap on an absolute cracker... I think this ruins my layout... and I already have 9 of my ten villagers plotted! I was wondering why Diana simply REFUSED to go anywhere near where I wanted her! This would make sense of that 
BRB I'm gonna upload my map and show you guys how I wanted it.. but I think it may be a hopeless case now.

You can probably guess where I wanted Diana to go, and she isn't having a bar of it. I'm thinking I must have somehow just missed having the others on the same acre but trying to fit Diana was just never gonna work!
Alrighty think I might make my own board and see what you guys think I should do now.
