Villager Hunting General Thread

Did some TTing yesterday to go looking for my 7th and 8th villagers on Inverness. I'm not 100% set yet, but I'm not really planning on going over 8 villagers until the island is close to done, so I was hoping for some "permanent" villagers, since I'm planning on cycling out all of my starters and my smug camper, O'Hare.

Hunt #1:
1. Marina
2. Rowan
3. Charlise
4. Jacques
5. Marina (the first repeat, but at least a cute one)
6. Hornsby
7. Freya -- waffled on taking her for a bit, but I'd really like Judy for my snooty for this island, I think
8. Hopkins
9. Broffina
10. Huck
11. Raymond -- haha, yeah, seriously. shame he doesn't fit the theme, not to mention I really haven't clicked with him the last time I had him.
12. Chow
13. Dora
14. Anicotti
15. Jacob
16. Kevin
17. Dobie -- invited! The permanent cranky villager I was hoping for!

Hunt #2:
1. Nana
2. Eunice -- also thought really hard about taking her; she's so cute.
3. Bangle
4. Goose
5. Leonardo
6. Peewee
7. Hugh
8. Curt
9. Eugene
10. Harry
11. Piper
12. Rolf
13. Freckles -- on a scorpion island! Caught an inventory full of scorpions and left her to her fate.
14. Buzz
15. Sprocket -- I have some serious beef with Sprocket. Left him.
16. Pippy
17. Benjamin -- cute! If I wasn't set on Sherb for my lazy, I would've taken him.
18. Piper (second repeat, I think)
19. Cube
20. Rex
21. Frita
22. Rizzo
23. Rudy -- one of my favorite jocks for sure; sorry Rudy!
24. Celia
25. Simon
26. Keaton
27. Muffy -- invited! My permanent uchi villager. I would've also taken Pashmina, but I'm very happy with Muffy!
 
So I’m back to island hopping this time for my second island Jurai. Axel asked to leave the same day I had a visitor in the campsite. Wolfgang was on the campsite agreed to move without playing the card game. Problem is he told me RS said no land available. Why couldn’t Wolfgang just replace Axel is it because I didn’t want to set up my last house plot yet? Anyway not sure who I’m looking for probably either a jock or snooty

  1. Pinky- is ok but I already have two peppy
  2. I found my snooty villager Cleo is moving to Juria 😃 I have never had her before she is adorable
 
I had a couple island hopping adventures in the last couple months. One I did not write about at the time cause I was an am still a bit unsure of my decision to let Cole move away. However, I am realizing I don’t actually know who my favorites really are until I experience a wider variety of villagers. So knowing I can bring him back someday if I want I let him move and here is an abbreviated summary:

almost invited: Eloise, Pinky, Miranda, June, Deli

old favorites or residents of my other island who I love : Graham (tempted to reinvite), Shari, Mac

hard nos : Rocket (x2), Rooney, Del

Popular sightings: Merengue, Ketchup, Mint

i ended up with : Hamlet!

i didn’t exactly want a second jock, but I love the hamsters and I could not resist. I also love the play hobby.

I already had Flurry and Soleil living on my island, so now had 3 hamsters.

Then earlier this week I decided to let my dear Ike move away, also thinking I might someday hunt him down again or get his amiibo. Cranky is my least favorite personality but he is one I actually like and he is so darn cuddly!

Inspired by a recent thread on here I decided to set some rules, with the full intention to not follow them the second I didn’t want to.
Duck, squirrel, penguin, dog, mouse, or bear

No more jocks

No one I have already had (sorry Graham, Shari, Cole, Ike, Fuchsia, Kiki)

* lazy, uchi, normal, maybe cranky

here is how my hunt went:

1. Chadder - he is actually very cute
2. Greta - I guess it is mouse day. Something about her appeals to me, but I don’t know about her. I can’t commit after only two tickets...
3. Vivian
4. Beardo
5. Boyd
6. Skye
7. Spork
8. Antonio 😱😱😱i love him he is so cute, but he is both a jock and a villager I have had before (even though on an island I don’t play anymore). He is so sweet though i love him
9. Sandy
10. Curlos - I considered him, he is very cute and I have never had 2 smugs at once
11. Zucker
12. Bunnie - awww she is super cute 🥰
13. Alfonso
14. Bianca - against my will she has won me over. But I cannot have two peppy tigers. It will be too much.
15. Flip
16. Hans
17. Margie - so cute, and I love love love her yellow house 🥰. But I feel like I have experienced her so much vicariously and/ or just can’t quite end my hunt yet.
18. Gonzo he is cute but I don’t want to invite him yet.
19. Pecan - pretty cute
20. Nibbles - aww
21. Doc - cute
22. Stu - I have never really liked the bulls. But he is pretty darn cute. I will probably consider him in the future.
23. Octavian
24. Nibbles again! ☺️
25. Hamphrey - should I give in to fate and have 4 hamsters?

so in conclusion, yes I now have a 4 hamster island.

and immediately after I got back to my island I happened to see a small fish near my pier and caught it on a whim and it turned out to be a Barreleye, my first one after months of (half- hearted) trying and lots of bait. So obviously -

THE HAMSTER GODS HAVE SMILED UPON WAILEA
 
This hunt was from a few days ago, actually, but getting around to posting now! O'Hare, my forced campsite villager, asked to move out while I was TTing to move some houses around, so I went looking for a new villager! I do have some pretty specific villagers in mind, although I think it's a decently sized list of 12 or so that I'd be looking to take.

The list:

1. Fauna -- absolutely love her! Already had her for a long time on Muir Wood, though, and have her photo, so she's not on the list.
2. Klaus
3. Curt
4. Cally
5. Vic
6. Antonio -- honestly my favorite anteater, I love his tail.
7. Huck
8. Beardo -- I've never run into him before, so it's neat to get to check him off, so to speak.
9. Rasher
10. Queenie
11. Weber
12. Hans
13. Jacob
14. Whitney! She is so pretty, but not on the list, unfortunately.
15. Rowan
16. Hamlet
17. Hamphrey
18. Gonzo
19. Tank
20. Erik -- another deer I adore, but I also had him for a long time and have his photo already.
21. Fuschia
22. Benedict
23. Wart Jr.
24. Sly
25. Cube
26. Bones -- an absolute cutie, I love him and might try for him on Muir Wood sometime.
27. Eugene
28. Cesar
29. Tucker
30. Diva
31. Soleil
32. Blanche
33. Big Top
34. Megan
35. Raddle
36. Colton
37. Julian -- invited him! My new permanent smug villager; I already have a perfect place for his house to go.
 
Sherb left so now I am searching again.

Mott~ nope
Marina~ nope
Hans~ nope
Merengue ~ Winner. Always wanted her , she is adorable!
 
Got Judy in the campsite today which was a nice surprise. However she picked Cyd to swap with, and Cyd is already in boxes so I was planning on island hopping tomorrow when he's gone. I'd rather island hop and potentially find a villager I really want so I'm not taking her. Sucks bc everytime I have a decent villager in the campsite they always pick the one villager out of 10 I'd rather they didn't lol.
 
I've been TT'ing for ages in order to get Murphy or Cookie to move now that I have their photos, every time I spoke to them when they had thought bubbles it was never about moving though. Finally when I'd made it all the way to August and was wishing on some shooting stars I spotted Murphy wondering with a thought bubble and success, he asked to move :D
Island hopping for Bea, Portia, Lolly, Freya, Vivian, Kyle, Bluebear, Olive, Caroline, Mint or Peanut.
Would possibly take Wolfgang, Rosie or Cheri if I saw them but would rather find them later as Wolfgang and one of the other two are likely to become permanent islanders.

Went on a 89 ticket villager hunt today for Inverness, hah. I won't do the full list since it's quite long (and because at some point I missed recording an encounter? oops), but my top priorities were Dom, Sherb, and Judy, with Lily, Skye, Bluebear, Cheri, Felicity, Merry, Pompom, and Puddles being also on the list of hopefuls but easier to attain with amiibos.

Some highlights:
1. Pashmina and Nan on tickets 1 and 2; I love them both and might have taken Pashmina for a permanent uchi if I hadn't already had Muffy.
2. Quite a number of cats - Kabuki twice, Tom, Olivia.
3. Audie at ticket 87! I already have her photo, or she would've been tempting.
4. A couple other wolves, too - Whitney twice, Lobo once.
5. Some cute sheep - Stella and Pietro showed up!
6. Also some cute dogs - Shep, Bea, Cherry.

Some, uh, lowlights:
1. An aaawful lot of chickens and elephants: Broffina twice, Goose, Egbert twice, Dizzy, Axel, Ellie, Tucker...
2. Graham.
3. Beardo.
4. Jambette.
5. Hippeaux.

Finally, on ticket number 89, I found Sherb! Welcome home, Sherb. Took ya long enough.
 
Back to island hopping for Jurai now that rodeo has moved. I’m looking for a Jock or a cranky since I don’t have either of those. Starting with 19 tickets.
  1. Kitt
  2. Biskit almost asked him but I already have 2 lazies
  3. Henry almost took him as well but already have a smug
  4. Al
  5. Renee
  6. Gala only reason I didn’t ask her was I have her amiibo and will invite her later. Short break to walk my puppy Aurora
  7. Found my jock villager Sparro is moving to Jurai . I have never had him before.
 
Following a little bit of island decorating I got back to TT'ing to try and get Cookie to move, while doing this though I gave a few more gifts to Blaire and gained her photo which was very quickly followed by her asking to move. I'm now island hopping to replace Blaire (will have to try again with Cookie later but she's proving to be pretty stubborn).
Looking again for either Bea, Portia, Lolly, Freya, Vivian, Kyle, Bluebear, Olive, Caroline, Mint or Peanut but would also consider taking a penguin this time if it starts going on too long as they turned up a lot on my last island hopping adventure

1. Boyd
2. Boots
3. Teddy

5. Leonardo
6. Rudy

14. Paula
15. Marshall - really like him but he has already lived on my island for a long time, maybe in the future

18. Tammi - nope, she gets negative marks for been a random move in early on in the game
19. Octavian
20. Deirdre
21. Nibbles
22. Lopez
23. Buzz
24. Knox
25. Graham
26. Skye - like her but not a wolf I'm looking for
27. Olaf
28. Mitzi - another villager I like but would rather take Lolly if I picked up another cat
29. Rodeo
30. Baarbara
31. Rory
32. Erik - like him but he's also recently left my island
33. Deli
34. Robin
35. Beau - my recent villagers like turning up today
36. Bree
37. Zucker
38. Mathilda
39. Goldie - very sweet but another past villager

The hunt started getting very long again so I'll put the rest in spoilers, finally found my new villager on ticket 67

43. Francine - not on the list currently but might look for her and Chrissy in the future

63. Tangy
64. Plucky
65. Walt
66. Lionel
67. Kyle - finally a villager I'm looking for! Kyle is now the newest villager to my island :giggle:
 
i just got julian as my very first campsite villager.. but i'm not sure if i want him or not :unsure:

i mean, i'm not sure if he fits on my island or not... :unsure:o_O
 
okay so I set out today to island hop for a jock (and failing that just any male villager really) but RNG decided to be nice to me in the wrong way.. I saw maple, sylvana, ellie, audie, coco and more and ended up moving in Judy when I saw her because I was losing patience and I might as well help someone else out through my suffering haha
 
i've decided that if i ever decide that i want julian, i'll either try to find him again or i'll get his amibo card... but i don't think he's right for my island..
 
Island hopping for Serenity. I was hoping I could just amiibo out sprinkle on my other island Jurai and move her to Serenity but I don’t have 10 plots on Jurai and don’t want to add it just yet. So it won’t let me have Lolly replace Sprinkle,

Starting with 22 tickets
  1. Tasha
  2. Willow
  3. Midge is moving to Serenity she’s cute and I have not had her.

the first camper you have to invite no matter who it is. So if it was the day after you built your campsite and he was there, then he will never leave until you invite him. Is he gone from the campsite?

isabelle just told me that there's a visiter in the campsite today too... would that either mean that julian is here again or that it's someone else?
