Animal Crossing WW: Inviting villagers over...?

Question

One of the villagers wanted to come over my house and I said sure and the time was set to 4:30, today. The time I invited him was 3:57 or so. So I stayed on untill 4:25 then walked over to my house. I waited from 4:28-4:35 outside my house and he never came! So I went to where he was and talked to him and he said he came by my house and I was never there. I was wondering why this happened.

My question is :

What do I do when an animal wants to come over my house?

Where should I be?

Answer 1

You should be inside of your house /before/ 4:30. At 4:30, the villager will knock on your door and say that he/she is coming to visit. (Either that, or you have to open your door once it is 4:30 and they'll be there.)

It's real tricky, that used to confuse me too. =/

Hope this helped, and good luck! =D

Answer 2

Where should you be???

In your own cage.

Answer 3

You should be INSIDE your house. I made that mistake when I first got it. They will knock on the door and let them self in. they may not come exactly when you said but like a few seconds after so be patient.

Answer 4

have a bowl ready with food specially formulated to assist in healthy development of your specific animal guest.

you should be protesting for more liberal drug laws!

I love your vagueness!

Answer 5

You need to be inside your house between the set times u invited them over
