All right, so new question regarding moving villagers out by scanning in an amiibo card. As mentioned previously, I'm currently trying to get a resident (Beardo) out of my town so I can move my Coco from another of my towns into the main one, and then adopt Ruby from someone on the forums in Coco's old place. Here's my problem: I've been attempting this for days, time traveling one day to the next, trying to get Beardo to ping to move, but he's the 10th villager, the most recent resident until these new plans, and 10th villagers are notoriously difficult to get out. Seemingly every other villager pings but him. So, I have some amiibo cards for some villagers I don't want to move into this specific town, but if I scanned one in and invited them to move into my town and forced Beardo out that way, can I thereafter move my Coco in instead of the amiibo, in essence cancelling out the amiibo villager? Is there always a gap of a day or two for amiibo move-ins? If this does work, is it safe?

No.

The amiibo will take precedence.

When you invite an amiibo to move in, the villager you've chosen to boot out will be in boxes right away, and will be replaced with the amiibo at 6.00 AM the following morning.

Darn, guess I have to keep chugging along then. Thank you.

You're most welcome!

It would be great if you got Coco's amiibo card. ^_^

I saw this person on the island and was wondering how they got their TPC image like that? And why is there a white heart by them?

It's a hacked TPC.

Ok, I'm dumb. I tried to look this up on google but the numbers are confusing... How much space do I have to leave next to a river for villager house placement? I know its either 1 or 2 but I'm really confused...

not sure if this question has ever been asked....but after not playing acnl for about a year and a half, I started playing again today. Imagine my shock to see that my department store was gone and I had been downgraded back to the home center. Why did that happen?

I kinda wanna sell my spring town to Tom Nook. I've almost played in Pegasus for a whole year. But I hate my map, I love my mayors name but it doesn't fit my town theme, and the same goes for my town's name.

If I sell my town to Nook, do I have to unlock the Town Hall, Train Station and Weeding Day topiaries again? Or will those pwps carry over?

You have to unlock everything again.

Only your catalogue (if you don't sell it) will be carried over, and bells paid in installments, or a lump sum.

Catchphrase question:
The person who had Tangy before me complained to Isabelle about her catchphrase and she's stuck with the infamous "uh-huh". Will they ever ping to change that?

Of course she will. After a few months, you'll probably get tired of her asking.

So, from what I've read on the forums in the past, patterns apparently prevent the grass underneath from further erosion. What I'm wondering is: Will grass regrow if covered by a pattern, or will present erosion stay the same? There are some patches I want to fix.

Paths do not interfere with grass erosion at all. If you keep walking in that place, it'll become "bald" whether there's a path or not. But if you build paths and only walk on top of them, the other places (non-pathed) will have lush grass, simply because you'll never step on them. Underneath the paths there'll be almost no grass, since you'll walk on them a lot, but o one will see that since the path is covering the places. That's how paths help with grass

Snowfall also helps repair grass.

Question about the star sign Western zodiac set: is it impossible to get in-game now? Because it was Wi-Fi only back when the game released?

The link lists where two items may still be obtained in-game. Looks like you can catalogue the rest from another player who has them and you can purchase them in-game by that method.

Question: if I use an amiibo card on the day a villager moves out, do i have to move out someone else or will it recognize the empty slot?

It will recognize that you have an empty slot. No need to move out someone else
