there are no invites. lol. i open my gate and then you go to cooper and ask to go out. When you ask to go out, cooper will save and connect to Nintendo WFC. Once that is done there will be a list of towns to go to if they open there gate. you click on one and then it will take you there. OK. I will open my gates once i add you... come to my town in 10 minutes. that means 4:26 my time, which is eastern standard time..(the east coast)... Got all that?
