Yeah, I actually wanted Henry the frog though I've got his amiibo but I'm too scared to bring him in with everything that's been happening with the glitches.
Going on an Island Hopping spree to recruit new Villagers. Wish me luck!

Good luck! I'm currently doing the same to get a good villager in queue so I don't get surprised by a random move-in. I really hope they only buy one house at a time because I certainely do not have the luck to get 4 nice villagers.
Oh I see, I recruited a villager from the mystery islands after getting the camper in today. So I would need to wait until tomorrow

It's one islander per day.
So when you recruit someone today, buy another plot of land and go on a tour tomorrow.
Good luck!

Congrats on getting Zell! He's my favorite villager and I am currently having him move in via amiibo. I island hopped yesterday for my 7th villager, and was able to find Zucker on my 3rd island, even though I already had a lazy villager, so don't lose hope! I went villager hunting today and found Marina to be my 8th, although I already have a normal villager! I truly think the island villagers are random.

I guess I should clarify, *just* meant I got her yesterday. xD
Today I had more good luck (my 100th something Nook Miles ticket), and found Judy on my first and only ticket!!! Other than Megan I haven't met any of the new dudes and dudettes yet.
Is Judy popular? I've never seen her before so I assume she's one of the 8 new villagers?

I am doing this too. My camper. Quillson, will move in tomorrow. I put up an extra plot and went island hopping looking for a cranky or a snooty. 6 trips later...I've seen Ellie, Chow, Harry, Boots, Kyle and Zucker so far. I would have gone for Zucker but I already have him in my second town.After my dinner, i've got to grind out more Nook Miles so I can try a few more times.

Another day, another island hopping tour for me! I’m hoping to get a cranky this time around. 
Praying to RNGsus that I run into someone I love at the mystery tours.

I recruited Rocco! So happy since he was an original camper from my New Leaf town and I was looking for a cranky villager. And I got him on my first try too!
The only villager type I'm lacking now is snooty, so tomorrow I'll try to island hop for a snooty. I'm just not sure if I should only go for snooty or accept any other cute villagers that I like, so I can balance trying to get all the types, having a 10 villager limit, and also picking villagers I actually like.

Whew. Eighth Island I visited had Fauna! Not the cranky or snooty I was looking for but I could not pass up that adorable cutie pie

Farmed nook miles like crazy waiting for villagers to appear on the island today. I actually spend 100k+ miles today. I had maybe 6 or 7 villagers I wanted to move in. Hamphrey popped up and I instantly invited him.
Was NOT planning on wasting all the miles on this but I was in too deep at a certain point lol.
I passed Soo many loved villagers along the way (Zucker, Rosie, Coco, Marina, Wolfgang, Cheif...to name a few)
And if anyone's curious, the villagers I was looking for were Erik, Tex, Hamphrey, Dobie, Bam, Monique.

I saved up about 9 tickets in order to blow today as soon as I got my campsite villager (Kidd). Gotta say, the lineup was pretty 'meh...'
Anchovy, Sally, Plucky, Sterling, Chops, Horsby, Victoria, Simon, Weber... not much. But then on my last one, I got Amelia! I've never had her before but she's a snooty I like a lot, so all in a good days work. I have 4 tickets I saved up, but I wanna grind some more miles before I place another plot.

How did you have so many miles??? :O
Yes, this is normal. You won't meet anymore new villagers until after you have bought another plot from Tom Nook and placed it.

I've been on 3 island hopping runs since my campsite got set up! I got Bones on island #13, Kyle on island #4, and Fauna(!!!) on island #17. Kyle and Fauna are definitely sticking around for good! I ran into four bamboo islands and one hybrid island while looking for Fauna, too.
I saved up 4 tickets and decided to use them today to find my 7th villager. Met Vic, Rocco and Anicotti in the first 3 island, which was all standard island (same fruit and flowers) and felt like there wasn't much hope of getting a decent villager for my island.
I used up my final ticket and got another standard island (with a different flower from my native) and came across Octavian. He was kind of cute so I've decided to invite him into my island! Also because I didn't want to risk getting a random villager into the new house plot that I've just set up ;v;

I did some island hopping today too, and was lucky enough to find Flora on my second trip. I was really happy because I have had a lot of... less than ideal... villagers randomly move into my other plots.
I'm glad you found a villager you liked!
