How Does Cycling Villagers Work?

[MadisonCrossing]

Hello everyone!
This is a question I had in mind recently. Lately I've been thinking about maybe obtaining another New Leaf copy, and if I decide to, I want to cycle villagers!
I honestly have no idea whatsoever on how this works, so if someone (preferably a cycler themselves, but if you understand equally it's all good), could let me know about this in full detail I would really appreciate it! Cycling seems like a fun thing to do and if it means helping people I'm up for it. c:
Thanks for the help!

Cycling refers to giving away villagers to other people or cycling them out until the ones you want move in, I believe.

I don't cycle my town so I don't know if my definition is completely correct or not.

You basically just TT villagers out into boxes so someone can adopt them! You can do 2 days (which would be faster) at once or go day by day until someone pings(More careful I guess).

Also there is the void where no one adopts them and they are in the wi-fi pool, which I don't exactly understand but people could get an accidental move in in you or they visit their town.

Okay! Thanks for replying!
And another question - is it possible to lose a villager to the void by cycling? (By this I mean that the villager may be reserved for someone but there's an accident and they are sent to the void instead.)
Thank you! c:
