okay so yesterday i had to time travel a lot to evict dobie for someone on the forums and i had insane luck at my campsite and with my nmt trips.

in my campsite, (i believe i had maybe 6 campsite visits while time traveling) i got merengue and rosie back-to-back. after, i decided to test my luck with a couple nmt trips and on my second trip i got julien! none of these villagers are dreamies but i definetly plan on trading them on the forums once they ask to move out.

has anyone else gotten extremely lucky with your campsite/nmt trips? please share because i love hearing about people’s finds using those options. it's very interesting to me!

Never gotten anyone in the campsite I'd keep (other than the ones I amiibo in) but have had very good luck on mystery islands. Found Raymond (kept), Audie (kept), Zucker , Marina, Lolly, Judy (gifted her away), Beau (gifted away) and several other popular animals on mystery islands....

I have a lot of amiibo so I just beam them in if I want a specific animal.
 
I found Beau and Coco on mystery islands! Also, just got Judy in my campsite!
 
Getting Raymond as my 3rd camper doing the campsite trick while I was looking for a snooty villager

Getting him again in the mystery islands on my 43rd ticket (I have more than a hundred that time)

Making Judy appear in my campsite several times.. I saw Audie three more times apart from already having her in my main island.

Same with Sherb. Saw him in the islands 3 times.
 
I got Tabby from an island and I got Audie from the campsite
 
I found Raymond in my campsite & Judy through a NMT. I don't even have a ton of NMT's so I guess it was luck. I've only ever come across 1 rabbit though, which was what I was hoping for lol.
 
It wasn't too lucky for me but I'm currently island hopping and have seen every popular villager except for the one I'm hunting for (Raymond.) I found Judy and kept her though because... she is very cute. Merengue I found and kept before I went island hopping and she only took six tickets! Wolgang took 216... Raymond is ongoing T3T
 
Someone was offering Zucker with an offer appreciated but not required. However he ended up being sold before my message asking to claim him was seen. No biggie, there's always another day.
Boom, Zucker's on the first island I went to after I put the 10th plot down. He may not end up being a perma-resident in the end but it's still a great moment for me.

Also, nice pictures OP. Seeing Rosie's proper room makes me realise it's way better looking than the DIY room my Rosie has.
 
I had a pretty good streak recently, within like 15-20 NMTs, I got Judy, Merengue, and Flora (idk if Flora is popular, but I wanted her). I don’t plan on keeping Judy and Merengue forever, but I did want to have them in my town for at least a little while, so it was exciting to find them!
 
Found Beau and Bianca on my 1st two NMT islands, then naturally got Marshal as a camper last week!
 
Found Diana with a NMT! Wasn't looking for anyone in particular but she's great so I adopted her. Other than that I was pretty unfortunate with those. Spent 20+ "hunting" and came back disappointed...
In the campsite, I haven't had much luck — I haven't had much visitors, period!
The luckiest I got was that Raymond was I think my fourth or sixth random villager? I didn't know he existed before and he reminds me a lot of my cat. So I'm super happy I got him!
 
Yesterday I TTed to get campsite villagers, the first time I got Ribbot..ew...then the 2nd time I got Raymond! even though his personality wasn't needed by the game! Even though it did take me 30 minutes of talking to him to get him to move here, it was so worth it.
 
I got dom on my 3rd island
found marshal and julian on my campsite
and idk if that counts but when I did the campsite trick I got raymond as the 4th villager
 
I was pretty lucky in some of my NMTs, I used to just travel for resources so I didn't really stack that many tickets as I was on a search for Lucky, but ended up meeting Fang and Sherb who are now favorites and permanent residents. Those and Apollo, who I had in WW and this time in kind of a poetic way (?) he allowed me to get Lucky, the dog I always wanted as a child.

With the campsite I've had some weird luck, I got one of my friend's dreamies, Pietro, through it, and as she said the campsite gifted me Audie for being nice and hunting some friend's favorites (I didn't and I still not have a dreamie list so I was like why not meet villagers and also gift them away). I had seen Audie and I was curious about her, and she's definitely also a permanent resident.
 
A few days ago, I was just starting the campsite method to get Bob since he's been in all my AC games. I was gonna record everyone I saw and made a spreadsheet but the first camper was Bob! I was so excited. He didn't even ask to play games to move in. My town was full but he went straight to talk to Resident Services to kick someone. Even luckier, he chose someone I wanted gone so I didn't have to reset!

For islands, I got Audie in around 20 tickets and Octavian in 13.
 
Got Dom in my campsite and kept him for a friend who really wanted him! My only good campsite visitor so far...

Found Merengue 3 tickets into a NMT search. I also found Audie 7 tickets into another search! Most recently, got Wolfgang after 32 tickets! Trust me, that's good luck because my search before that was 55 tickets of Garbage (only two good ones in all 55 were Pietro and Coco) and I ended up buying Beau instead lol...
