Getting Started
Town Layout
- ReTail Location: Retail is your primary site for selling items, and your Turnip depot. The two ideal spots for ReTail are either by the train station, or by the dock. The Train station is beneficial since visitors have quick access for selling turnips. The dock is beneficial for selling island beetles. Try to decide which you shall do more often, and then try to generate a town with a ReTail in that location.
- River shape: The main division in your town occurs via the river. Decide how you want your town organized, and then generate a river pattern that compliments this structure. Do you want an even north and south, a very small cutout, a long or short river?
- Bridges: Consider where you will put bridges. Remember that you are limited to three.
- Waterfall access: Some fish only spawn in the waterfall. Ensure that your town has a fishable waterfall location.
- Beach access: Try to avoid generating inaccessible beaches. Either one long strip, or two strips with ramp access is preferable.
- Neighbor Homes: If you want your neighbors consolidated, or spread out, keep this in mind.
Perfect Fruit: Each town starts with one hanging on a tree. Bank it in your train locker until you learn "safe" places to plant trees (where houses won't get dropped on them, or where they'll wither).

I need more storage!
Solution #1: Throw your shit out. If you keep items that cannot be ordered from the catalog, and toss out anything you can order, you will find that some storage space frees up.
Solution #2: Add more characters to your town. With one character, you have access to only 866 storage spots. By adding 3 more characters, you gain access to 2,888 inventory slots. Ensure that you are using all possible storage, and then add characters as needed.
866 Not-Clothing-Specific Storage, 1 Home:
- 16 Personal Inventory
- 10 Personal Letter Inventory

@cabsy I'll gladly take Flip from you if you are around in the next 30 mins.
I'd like to get another visit, to bump me to 400.
So much visiting!
But yeah. If you want to leave your town open sometime I'd be happy to grind out visits.
Flip is mine! Thanks.
Oh wow I didn't realize when someone came by and seduced them away they moved out immediately! Glad you managed to get him to move, I'll be able to tell my fiance he's got a happy home now. Hope you enjoyed the town of a BILLION FLOWERS
Of course I decided to try time traveling to grow back grass, three days at a time talking to all my villagers each time, and of course of course the only resident who moved out was Fang who is one of my favorites. Ah well
Have I added you yet?
Added you. My number is in my sig.
Got you added.
Sweet! The Reset Center is open! I wonder what's inside this time.
Ooo. A fancy machine? So fancy!
Got it! Push the button and say Scramble!
Oh, sure. I can't reset. But if you want to.
A sensible reaction to your brother being launched away.
I'd tell _J_ to put something about it in one of the OPs, but it's not really something that noteworthy unless people ask about it.
Yelling at butts will never NOT be funny. Thanks, Psy!
Also, Abby is awesome. Keep up with TLH because it's the tits!

Added to OP#1, in the Friend Code section.
@Cullen Apologies for the delay. Ghee is open.
If anyone is doing turnips this week, my town has been on a steady decline so far.
I noticed you still need some art. If you've got a list, I'll check my spares. Got loads spare now just rotting in the closet.
I believe the art is up to date.
And now I recall that I need to order those K.K. songs I touched in Omnar over the weekend...
Also got my last silver badge today:
Just 9 golds to go.
Art I need:
amazing painting
fine painting
motherly statue
moving painting
mystic statue
neutral painting
I have a fine painting of questionable provenience that I can drop in Cullen's town for you to pick up
I've kind of been assuming if a town is open it's ok to stop by - is that correct?
Yup. Generally ok to visit, buy things from shops, fish, shake trees, etc.
Just don't destroy flowers.
Edit: I would be quite grateful for the fine painting.
I dropped it out front of Cullen's train station, I got it from a villager so I'm not sure if it's real or not. I was in Omnar touching things but it started to lag so I returned home to make sure all my touching was saved
The fine painting was real. Super-thanks!
@_J_:
Omnar2 has these paintings and statues in front of my house.
I would err on the side of caution and suggest only shaking trees without fruit on them.
Omnar2 has yet to make any perfect cherry trees, but shaking perfect trees without consent from that town's mayor is ill-advised. Personally, you can shake Omnar2's fruit trees and take them as you wish since they'll spawn that fruit forever...but just be cautious of perfect fruit trees in other towns since they only have a limited amount of shakes in them.
Yelling at butts will never NOT be funny. Thanks, Psy!
Also, Abby is awesome. Keep up with TLH because it's the tits!
I love League of Legends, but seriously...screw you, Teemo.
You are, as always, a gentleman and a scholar.
Much appreciated, but I'm still unsure of planting a perfect cherry tree. I do have a bunch of 9 perfect cherries in my inventory in Omnar2 (along with 9 of every other perfect fruit) in case somebody didn't collect their one perfect fruit when they started their town, and I'm mostly just holding on to them until somebody wants some to plant in their town (and then, hopefully, they return however many they borrowed once they bloom on their own perfect trees, and they'll have extra perfect fruit to replant themselves).
I'm sure that I'll eventually plant a perfect cherry tree, but since I can't bloom all the perfect fruit trees in my town, I opted to just not plant the perfect cherry since I have no need for them (other than to trade, but that still means I don't have the other 4 out to share).
But, realistically, I can only be one. Which one?

And, yup.
I not only went through and figured out what projects I didn't have, but I got to group them in an Excel spreadsheet by villager type, and create a related spreadsheet with a re-organized grouping of villager types instead of alphabetical. Fun times. >_>

Does your spreadsheet happen to include all the pwps? Or just the ones you are missing?
As I've received the requests, I've been eliminating them so I knew which ones I had left.
If you want, I'll work on a google excel doc tomorrow for you to copy. It wasn't anything super special.
Also, to note, I said "I got to", as if I actually enjoyed it or felt privileged to do it?
