Move-in Question

[Soujouki]

Okay, has this happened to anyone else?

I had ten animals in town, one of which moved out. A few days later, I had another animal tell me she was about to hop town. Today (the next day), Patty's plopped a plot in my town, putting me back at ten. Was I just under the assumption that once you had nine animals no more could move in unless you asked them to, or does Becky moving have something to do with it?

Like, you're my second-favorite cow, Patty, but I really wanted that space for Knox.

If you have wifi'd with someone who's villager just moved out, there is a chance that they will move into your town without warning

Even with the max number of animals and without your request? Wow, that's kind of irritating...

This can also happen if you streetpass someone who has one moving out.
Fantastic feature, Nintendo

It's really stupid.. I missed Hamlet twice because a stupid hippo moved in. I'm still angry. Once Walker moves out, no one comes into my town until I get the tenth villager back. I need to avoid this at all costs.
There's not much you can do to prevent it. -.-
