What's the best Town Ordinance?

Not really any best ordinance, just choose one that will suit your play style, I'll be on more likely in afternoons thus Night Owl for me etc.

 

[shadowkat]

Awesome OT! And subscribed.

I'm looking forward to this. I played the 64 and DS versions forever. Never did get City Folk, as I think AC is better suited for handhelds.

 

[KaYotiX]

Really wish we got the promotion of buy 3 select games get AC free.... Damn. I'm ready to buy on day one though.

 

[Heropon]

Added myself to the list. I'm in the UK if anyone is looking to match time zones.

Added! My FC is: 3437-3028-0207

 

[Sleepy]

Okay, QUOTE his post. Do NOT post it like Inertia did lol. Before you post it, you should see the link inside the quote.

Yeah, I figured it out. But thanks for the help and snark.

 

[Tunic]

Can't wait! Wish it was coming out today. Nice OT!

 

[Proven]

Males used to have ahoge's all the time. It's in the last half decade that it seems to be a more female thing.

 

[MarkusRJR]

So who's going to be joining the exclusive and very cool Poptart XL club?

*raises hand*

I'm so close to preordering on right now, but I love my blue 3DS XL and I'm worried the white color on the shoulder buttons will yellow over time. My old white DS lite turned nasty despite me excessively cleaning it every month or two.

 

[MicH]

Almost 100 friend codes on the FC list! Man it is going FAST I love it

 

[pariah164]

Ahoge is unisex. :T

Now you got me worried. Is it from the sun or the sweat or?

THere's no feature to send letters/gifts via spotpass to friends is there? Because i just thought of that and it'd be aweesome if you could get letters from friends instead of just NPCs

You CAN im your best buddies easily though.

[Elija2]

Quick question about putting in my timezone, should I base it off of EST or the current EDT? I feel like this is only a problem because I don't know if there's a difference between UTC and GMT.

I wanna know this too. I put -4 because of Daylight Savings Time, but once it changes back I'll have to change it to -5. Not sure if I should get someone to change it to -5 and keep it like that.

 

[Acid08]

You should add yourself! You don't have to add your FC, I'll edit it in for you when you do get it.



You're hilarious. You need to READ the OT. It says that the link will be at the top of quotes. Its even in RED bolded letters.

Will do when I get home! Now to think of a town name D: I was all set on Twin Peaks but nooooooooooooooo 8 characters only.

 

[Heropon]

I had to look what an ahoge was. It definitely isn't a woman-only thing.

That happened to all my star trek models after flying them around all the time and pretending I was the captain

 

[javac]

Thanks to everyone who added me! I've added you all back

I'll make sure to run through the remainder of the thread and add everyone else later

And thanks Samurai_Heart, I'll make sure to add myself to the doc later.

By the way there isn't much to do in terms of interacting with friends outside of the game on the 3DS right?

 

[Stoof]

Good to see the town name of Tharja was still unclaimed!

 

[DeadRockstar]

Have I added you my fellow geek GAF XD

Haha not yet man. I just added you though.

Added! My FC is: 3437-3028-0207

Added you back!

 

[ThanksVision]

yess let's go! I'm wondering if I should cancel my preorder on Amazon and pick it up day one at Kmart instead

 

[Grizzo]

THere's no feature to send letters/gifts via spotpass to friends is there? Because i just thought of that and it'd be aweesome if you could get letters from friends instead of just NPCs

I don't think so... but that would be a great idea ! Getting furniture from friends through the mail would be a pleasant surprise.

 

[Philia]

Speaking of, I'm so proud of everybody being original with their town names! :3

 

[Avixph]

The one that best suits your playstyle.

http://animalcrossing.wikia.com/wiki/Town_Ordinance

I don't know which to choose since I have never played an Animal Crossing game before.

 

[Philia]

You don't have to set it right away.

 

[MarkusRJR]

Now you got me worried. Is it from the sun or the sweat or?

Both really. I used to be have an OCD with cleaning my hands constantly and the shoulder buttons still turned yellow despite the fact I cleaned the buttons every month or two. I've only ever had Nintendo hardware turn yellow too (mostly their white analog sticks on nunchucks and white shoulder buttons on handhelds). I really want to get the AC 3DS since I have an AC collection (all games sealed + a few AC accessories), but I'm too worried it'll end up nasty by the end of the gen.

8 characters only? There goes the name I was thinking of D:

I'm surprised that Hyrule is still unclaimed, let's see how much it lasts.

Damn, didn't know this. =/

Might go with the ugly Pikachu 3Ds XL now. At least it's already yellow.

 

[SuperSah]

This thread moves so quickly.

If anyone adds me, please send a PM because i'm logging out and it's annoying to backtrack through threads. Cheers.

 

[Sleepy]

Well now that you said something. I named my town Lunesta. Character's name is going to be Sleepy.

 

[Cystm]

Great |OT|

 

[spindashing]

Are there even still copies available of the Pikanips XL?

 

[Chezzymann]

Wait where do you go to see the list of this? The link in the OP just takes me to registration

 

[Warrior_Keoni]

Anyone playing this in full 3D most of the time?

 

[Grizzo]

Speaking of, I'm so proud of everybody being original with their town names! :3

I was thinking the same thing ! Lots of variety through people's town names.

My heart was set on "Holodrum" way before Oracle of Seasons got re-released on the e-shop. Actually I was thinking about changing it to something else, but replaying the Oracle games these last few days comforted me in my decision to name it that way.

 

[Unicorn]

Hyyyyype

Also, if it ain't already noted:

Unicorn of Ecruteak

 

[Avixph]

You don't have to set it right away.

Oh okay, but is it possible to change it throughout the game?

 

[Mononoke]

Are there even still copies available of the Pikanips XL?

I have my ways to get one....

*shifty eyes*

But was deciding between that and the Animal Crossing one. I personally love the white/pop tart look. But I also am afraid of it yellowing now that it's been brought up. I guess the white/pink 3D's had this issue already.

 

[DeadRockstar]

Scroll down.

Edit: To be clearer, they're below the registration boxes.

 

[suzu]

It's on the same page as the form submission (scroll down).

Oh okay, but is it possible to change it throughout the game?

Yep. For a fee.

 

[Bringer Of Bacon]

I still don't understand the online. So if I enter some of your friend codes on my 3ds, I can go and visit your village in real time? Like, I can visit, and you are playing at the same time, I will see you running around doing stuff? And if I visit when you are away and chop down all trees, they will stay like that when you return? I'm just trying to get a sense for how this works.

 

[Philia]

Yes, for 20k bells.

 

[Stoof]

When those came out my girlfriend saw a picture on her facebook that the nearby naval base had like 20-30 sent to them. She was pretty jealous about that, since everywhere else only got like 2-3.

 

[Bururian]

I have about 40 of you from here added. When thins game comes out, I'll probably be MIA for quite some time to just playing the game, so you can probably just find me in game if you really need me.

Philia, you can PM me for FC when you get your poptart so I can add you.

 

[Piercedveil]

I do not know what to name my town.. I was pretty set on Edgeville but it can only be 8 characters, correct? So close

 

[Philia]

Okay... there's a best friend (up to 32 friends) feature that'll be allowed in your town anytime. I'm not sure if you have to be online or not (I'd assume so). What they do is go to the train station and ask to go visit somewhere. Conductor (FearMyWrench's avatar) will show you a list of friends' towns that are available. In this list, it'll show AC character names and Town names. Which is why these two lists on the spreadsheet is important for identity purposes.

It'll take a few seconds and they'll come through the station. You can instant message with them while in town.

And if you see them doing up to no good, you can simply turn your wifi switch off immediately and you'll revert back to your save before that person had entered your town.

 

[eudaemonic]

Hahaha... sleeping in till 11 and I wake up to find this thread already at 17 pages! I'm totally gonna miss the first Wall of Shame. *chuckles*

Great job on the OT and on the list, by the way - sexy results!

 

[pariah164]

Working around the house; peeking in here when I can. You all are awesome and I'm proud to be part of this community.

LOL is your character name going to be "T!"?

 

[Sleepy]

I have never visited anyone's town before in either AC and AC: WW, so I got burned out sort of quickly. With 100+ friends this thing is going to be a life destroyer.
