If you haven't saved yet, quit without saving, he'll still be thinking of moving. Then just ignore him until he leaves so he can't change his mind again.

Nooo.
I saved D:
I should've just left him alone. I forgot what day he said he was moving so I was trying to get him to pack up
You should consider that villagers don't necessarily move every 3 days (which is what this amounts to), so sometimes you might need to quit without saving and TT for extra time.
I don't like using that method very much because it takes longer and it's easier to mess up. I know several people use it and have good results, though.
Regardless of what method you use, if you get that conversation about how you've been ignoring a villager or how they missed you (the things villagers say when you haven't been around), talk to them more than once. Then save and quit, load the game, and walk in front of them so that they can ping you.

Question: I restarted my town yesterday, so I currently have three free spaces for new villagers. Charlise has a plot reserved currently. I adopted Canberra today, so she should have a plot reserved tomorrow. Since I have more than one free space, will villager move-ins simply queue up if I adopt more today, or will they overwrite?
You can only adopt one villager per in-game day, otherwise the last adopted villager will overwrite the previous one. Once Canberra has plotted you're safe to adopt again.
I feel like I have so many questions ><!
I just came across another one. My old town has a villager (Diana) I want. I managed to get her to say she wants to move out and I'd like for her to move into my main town but it's full. Will Diana be in the queue to move in? If so, do I just keep moving people in until she moves in?

There is no move-in queue. If you want Diana to move in, you need a villager to move out of your main town.

I have a question. Will villagers get annoyed if I continually send them the same shirt in the mail? I want Kiki and Erik to wear specific shirts, and I mailed them one letter, but they put the shirts in their homes. :T I know they'll only display one copy of a shirt, and I read somewhere that sending the shirt over and over again gives a better chance of them wearing the shirt, but will they get bothered by it?

No, you can send them as many letters as you like, nothing "bad" will happen, it is recommendable to send one letter a day because the villagers seem to not realize or notice if you send them more letters (from my experience). Yeah it`s annoying that the villagers can display shirts in their homes, just send them the shirt again until they eventually wear it.

Can someone let me know if I am understanding lurking in cycling threads correctly?
This is how I am using it in my thread:
-Someone says they want to lurk for villager A (regardless if they are in my town at the time)
-I say ok and put them on my list as a lurker for villager A
-Then let's say villager A is in boxes
-I notify lurker but it's not a guarantee that they will get the villager
I just want to make sure I'm using the term appropriately in my thread :>

Yup that's how I usually see it being done! Lurkers typically get "priority" over those who aren't lurking, so you notify all lurkers when that specific villager is in boxes. But the lurkers might not be online at the time, and some other person who wasn't lurking for that villager might end up giving you an offer first.

If I have 9 villagers, what are the odds of a 10th randomly moving in uninvited?
Without realizing I had only 9, I invited a friend to my town, but her last two voids were (oddly enough) two villagers I already have in my town, Rudy and Annalisa. What are the odds of me getting a villager from her void before those two? I started my game on a new character just to check and see if there were any plots just in case but I didn't see one. Am I likely safe?

I think her void should not contain any of the older villagers that moved out and a 10th villager can only move in when it is someone's void, when you tell a villager to do so (when they are "in boxes" in someone's town) or when you tell them to move in from your campsite.
Correct me if i am wrong though
Okay, that's a relief. I'm mainly concerned because I'm trying to get all cats in my town and I still have two non-cat villagers to move out and I'd probably be really irritated if I had to deal with a third non-cat to get rid of, especially since the 10th is so hard to get to move out.
I think it's doubtful you'd get her voided villager. Providing they moved out less than 16 villagers ago from your town. If they have moved out and you have completed the 16 villager cycle for that villager (so let's say Rudy moved out and since then another 16 have gone) then you have a chance of getting Rudy. Otherwise the game knows that you're still doing the cycle.
