I only have eight; I'm not a fan of most of the furniture requests (and I'm extremely stingy with my crafting materials, especially cotton because I need it for everything and I only have like 200 of it) so I haven't really bothered, but recently I've started to try to get a few more villagers so I'm getting a couple more. Right now I only have Goldie, Filbert, Rosie, Jay, Apollo, Punchy, Tex, and Kid Cat and I'm currently working on getting Peanut.
16 because I never have enough materials to build all their furniture. I build pieces that I do have enough materials to build from the animals lists, so that eventually I will be able to invite them all. My strategy is kind of all over the map with the furniture. I need to work on amenities for sporty because I have some that can't level up and wasting hearts
Just got 20 in this second haha. I keep putting it off because I'm at the stage I need cotton for both amenities and furniture so it takes forever to get new villagers in. The Host the Most event encouraged me to go and speed up a bit and I got all those rewards lol.
29 at first I was inviting as many as possible but after that “invite 4 campers in 5 days” goal I stopped and now I’m saving them just in case they ever do that again
20. I haven't invited anyone in a while (other than for the quest last week) since I'm prioritizing the amenities and the Christmas items but once I'm satisfied with those I'll start *slowly* inviting them again.
