Mira is one of the villagers that moved to a spot that's in the way. So she finally pinged me to move out. And I said "okay that's fine." She said "Oh you want me to stay." And she changed her mind about moving. No, no I do NOT want you to stay.
Yeah as long as you don't save, it'll be like they never talked to you about moving/staying. I've had it happen to me a few times, where I was so far into my daily plaything, that I didn't want to have to do it all over again. So yeah, if a villager who you hate pings you when you're pretty far into your daily chores, don't talk to them. It might be them wanting to talk to you about moving. Instead save and quit and check to see if they ping you again.
It happened to me just now upon my 2nd character... My first character found that Cranston wanted to move yesterday, and he still decided to move. Then I played as my second character today, and it was her first time to have him ping about moving... And decided not to. I had an hour of progress just lost from that. -_-
I seriously thought "second guesses" like that only occured *after* the first time they announce to leave...
Mira pinged me again, hours later. I ran away like my life depended on it. I do not know what she wanted this time, nor do I want to know. she needs to move and so does Peewee, Friga, Leonardo, Rhonda, and unfortunately Bones. They are ALL in the way.
