Is there a way to check if a villager is out of your cycle? I want nibbles back, but I dont know if its been 16 villagers since she left (probably not)
 
If they no longer appear on main st or inside the main st shops, they've gone through the 16 villager cycle.

No, you have to keep track of it.
However, I think what may help is to sit on your town tree, and if you remember what date nibbles moved out, you could count how many villagers have moved in since then and kind of estimate (assuming you moved those villagers out to get nibbles back).

Hmm.. I might be able to figure it out with some work.

Thanks!
 
Is it possible to move out your last villager? A person I traded with didn't inform me that their void wasn't clear and I ended up with their voided villager. -.- It also doesn't help that I have 9/10 dreams and can't afford to move anyone else out.

Definitely is possible. It just takes a lot of effort. If you intend to cycle, then it might take longer. But I just spent a few days being absolutely fantastically awesome to the neighbor and waited until they asked to move.

Thank you! So befriending them is the easiest way to move them out?
 
What is the acre system for New Leaf? I'm trying to make a gridded map. Thank you!

Every acre is 16 x 16 spaces. To make a grid, count spaces down from the train tracks and left/right from the cliff on the non-beach side of your town.
 
So I may have ended up with a villager from a friend's town and he didn't want her moving out but didn't notice before he could change her mind, is there any way to get her to move back into his town once she's ready to go again?
 
Not sure if I'm supposed to be asking, but maybe in a PM :)

How in the world do people get so many bells! I've been playing for a long time, but have never been able to save up 1 mil (ofcourse, in total i've spend more)

He would have to complete the 16 villager cycle and then adopt the villager from your town. If he is willing to cycle and you are willing to hold on to that villager while he does that, then you could get the villager back to him.

I think a lot of the "TBT market" is driven by duplicated / hacked bells being exchanged. You can get 20 mil IGB by selling 100 TBT. You can also make a lot of bells by selling gardening supplies and unorderable items on this site. If you want to make bells by yourself, then turnip selling and beetle hunting at the island are the best strategies. I can make about 400k in about a half hour by going to the island and catching beetles on the palm trees.

If you have another 3ds and another cartridge then it's really easy to sell turnips when there's a spike. I think selling perfect fruit in a town where it's not native is the easiest way to make bells. Finding someone to let you visit for either can be really frustrating though.

I thought so, thanks! :) apparently he's fine as long as she's in my town (and I like Cookie, she's adorable) so we're good for a bit

iirc there's a method where a villager ask to move and after saying no you move a year then another? Can anyone confirm how to do it again? I haven't played nl in awhile and remember doing this than starting a new character after each travel

That's pretty much it! Once a villager asks to move out and you reject them, you can time travel as much as you want without being at risk of anyone moving out. Once you're on a new date though, you'll have to wait until someone asks to move out and reject them again before it's safe to time travel a huge distance again.
 
Is there a way to save messages you get outside of your pocket? I just got one from a villager and it's special to me and I don't want to accidentally delete it.

You can save letters at the post office :)
