I was Time travelling to open Shampoodle, and this happened.
I received a letter from Fang. He f***ing moved. My bff moved. Forever.
Moral? I suck at life.
If you have 10 villagers in your town, you can cycle 2 out and repeat that process until you have moved out 16 villagers. Just keep getting a new villager from the campsite every time you are back at 9 villagers. I've just done the cycle for Genji, haven't lost anybody else other than the two villagers I chose to move out when I first started the cycle
It's never nice to lose a dreamie....if you really love him, I would try the cycle
and if you make everyone boxed to leave, & then save in the game while everyones boxed, go back to the editor and unbox everyone, that way no one can move out.
