I haven't played this since February so I changed the in-game (not system) date to the last day that I played but my flowers had died completely and there were weeds everywhere. Rover even said that people missed me (though nobody moved out) Why did this happen? I've done this multiple times before without any such results so what gives? Did the game decide to cheat me out of my flowers? There's probably nothing that can be done about this as the town gets saved in this state once it's loaded but it still infuriates me to the point of wanting to toss this game into the nearest trash can. If anyone has some advice on what I can do to quickly regain the hybrids that I was robbed of, I'd love to hear it because I do like the villagers that are in my town and I do want to make the place better but losing all of that hard work for no reason whatsoever just makes me hate the entire series of Animal Crossing. So many hybrids dead. Just, ugh!

I think that whether or not you log in to play every day, the game will proceed as usual (flowers wilt, weeds appear, etc). As far as your lost hybrids, there is no saving them after they've gone . I suggest that when you do have a hybrid, pick it up and keep it in your house in some way (put it out or put it in a wardrobe.

Yeah. That seems to be the case. It's just weird that they died since I've done the same thing before without this happening but there's not much that can be done about it now. I'll just have to make sure to keep my flowers watered and hope that nothing like this ever happens again.
