『PING!』【What Am I Doing Wrong?】

[Unumii]

So I want to start using the cycling method to get things going, but I cannot get that "!" from a single villager.
It is a fairly new town, but I have done the following things just in case:

- Mayor Permit 100%
- Taken Isabelle's Advice
- Make Sure That Every Villager Knows I Am Now Present
- I have 9 Villagers

What am I doing wrong? I TT by one day each time I have gone around the villagers outside at that moment, but nobody "!"'s so I then save and quit and then repeat the process again, by doing this, is it guaranteed that eventually a villager will ask to move? Or am I supposed to TT differently for that initial first move?

Eventually a villager will ask to move out. Have you gone a long time without talking to a villager (a week or more)? They won't ping you if you haven't talked to them in a long time.

I time travel multiple days at a time because it's faster. Two days forward, two days back, and then I look around to see if there's a ping. If there isn't one I time travel two more days. But that's risky and you shouldn't do it if there's someone you want to keep. If after two more days there isn't a ping which is pretty rare, I'll time travel one more day. And keep reloading the day to see other villagers. You should also talk to villagers because sometimes they won't ping you but they're still moving. I'll talk to one villager over 10 times to find out.

Someone told me to just keep going one day at a time until Isabelle tells you someone is moving out

I see, well it is a cycling town at it's beginnings so there is no risk involved with this method. I think I will try and talk to each villager outside every time I do a TT 2 days forward or back, just to keep the consistency going.

Thank you everyone for your help too! ~
