I'm wondering what methods are best for getting rid of villagers you don't want. I just tried one that was basically time travelling ahead 15 days, going back to your current day, and keep going back until the villager you didn't want had the bubble. It took about 2 hours and didn't work and now I have weeds all over my town. What worked for you?

It probably didn't work for you because when you TT 15 days if you don't see a thought bubble, your supposed to time travel one more day forward each time until you see a thought bubble, I have yet to see it fail for me

No, I did see a thought bubble on many of my villagers. Just not on Chow of all of them. I did it for 2 and a half hours before giving up. I'm not sure if it's because I didn't bond with him enough (which was a reason your villager wouldn't move in New Leaf)

Is chow your 10th villager by an chance? I heard your last villager to move in is the hardest one to move out

The best way is to just stop talking to them. It takes longer but it's more effective. You should talk to them only if they're making DIY recipes in their house, and only when they have thought bubbles. Otherwise, ignore them completely.

One thing I tried that kinda worked was TT a Month forward then a day at a time until you find someone with the bubble. If it’s someone you want to keep. Don’t talk to them and remember the date you’re currently on. That date will be seen as your moving date. Set your time back to the correct time. Then save and TT back to the moving date. Someone else should have the bubble. Rinse and repeat until it’s the one you want to evict.

Here is how I've been doing it and it works every time.

1. TT forward 15 days. Look for thought bubble. If you don't see one, go forward one day at a time until you do
2. Once you see the bubble, make note of the date. I write it down so i don't forget.
3. If it's the person you want gone cool. If not continue on to step # 4
4. Go back to current date
5. Go to the date where you saw the thought bubble. Chances are it will be a different villager thinking of leaving
6. Repeat until you get the one gone you want out...

I appears that this thought bubble will always generate on specific days. Thats why it's important to remember the date where you see the 1st one. If it's not the person you want, go back to current date then travel forward to the date where you saw the 1st thought bubble. Keep doing this until you get the one you want.

Good luck.

There is no proven correlation between ignoring villagers and which villager thought-bubbles to move out.

I agree with this...

I've had villagers who I talk to all the time ask to bail after 15 days forward and ones I have not spoken to at all in weeks never ask to leave. Most recently, it took me doing my above method 9 times to get Cleo to move. I have not spoken a word to her in weeks and even fenced her house up so she could not leave.. LOL

This is exactly what I've been doing. It's like no matter how many times I tried it refused to work on Chow.

Took me 9 attempts to get Cleo to bail... Broke my heart when Ozzie asked, Marina asked and Lily asked.. It's brutal when the ones you like ask..
