#PLEASE READ:

It is important to know that the moderators of this subreddit are in no way responsible for any in-game losses that may occur because of item duplication. The process itself is risky, as it utilizes an exploit of the game, and can therefore have unpredictable results. We do not want to be held accountable.

#RULES:

No "real money" transactions are allowed.
No spamming. If you do not get responses, do not continue to post/comment; please wait at least a day.
Practice town etiquette when visiting other people's towns. Do not run, dig holes, pick things up, or buy things from stores without asking. Listen to the host's instructions.

Breaking the rules and being reported can result in a temporary or permanent ban from this subreddit.

#ALLOWED POST TYPES:

###[LD] Looking to Duplicate

If you do not have the item you're wanting to dupe, use this tag. Use the [OD] following it to indicate what you do have that you're willing to dupe and share with your partner.
Example: [LD] 7-Eleven Series [OD] Sloppy Series

###[OD] Offering Duplication of

If you do have the item to dupe, this is the tag that goes along with it. If you only need a duping partner and intend to only share the item you're offering duplication of, use the [LF] tag to find a partner.
Example: [LD] ABD Machine [OD] Throwing Beans
Example: [OD] Mermaid Series [LF] Duping Partner

###[LF] Looking for Partner

If you just need a partner for your duping ventures, use this tag and the [OD] tag to indicate what you'll be duping with them and what your partner will be getting out of it.
Example: [LF] Partner to duplicate bells with [OD] Half of duplicated bells

#Searching YouTube for videos on how to dupe is a good option if you need more visual and verbal cues, but here's how to dupe in text below!

1. The host of the session opens their gates for the visitor.
2. The visitor, who will be the one actually duplicating the items, should bring whatever they want to duplicate to the host's town.
3. Upon arrival, the visitor should drop whatever they are duplicating in the host's town. (It is pointless for them to pick anything up in return, as they will not actually get it if the duplication is done correctly.)
4. When the visitor is finished dropping the items, the host will press the START button and end the multiplayer session. At this point, the host does not need to do anything else.
5. As the session is ending, the saving screen will pop up on the visitor's 3DS from left to right, followed by a spinning icon of 8 dots. This is the most crucial part of the duplication. The visitor needs to flick off their wifi switch as soon as the spinning icon has made a certain rotation. This rotation is debated; some say to flick the switch at .5, .75, or one full rotation--you will have to play with it for yourself to see what works. It has also been suggested to flick the switch after hearing four notes, as in "do do do do (flick) do do...).
6. If done correctly, ONLY the visitor will receive a Resetti error message. When the visitor accepts the error message and returns to their town, they should have all of the items in their inventory that they left with. The items that the visitor dropped in the host's town should also still be there.
