Previous villagers on Main Street??? 16-villager-cycle question

[pictureperfectLT]

So I was wondering about this for a while now. I've had several of my old villagers stop by on Main Street and spend the days there walking around or in the shops. But, what I'm wondering is, does being to see them there mean that my 16-villager-cycle is done, and they can potentially move back (e.g. if I got them from another town where they were in boxes and asked them to move back)?

Fuchsia appeared on Main Street fairly recently and she's one my dreamies, whom I lost due to the horrible thing called Time Travel ; n ; I really want her back and am wondering if seeing her on Main Street means I can get her back???

Thank you very much!!​

That means you haven't cycled them out yet. Once they stop appearing, you've cycled enough.

This is right. Muffy stopped showing up and I was able to ask her to move in c:

i'm pretty sure when they stop appearing for a long period of time its safe to say you've cycled enough but if i were you id try to keep a list of who has moved out since you lost her. it helps because you dont want to think youve cycled her enough and go to get her and she remembers you D:

That's probably a good idea! Haha I should have started my list, but didn't think to do that I'm probably a good several villagers in, though. But I'll start keeping track now just to be sure!

Thank you so much, everyone!

If you've kept all of the moving letters you have received, you'll be able to see all of the villagers that have moved out since Fushcia's departure.

Yeah I've thrown them away bad idea on my part haha but I know for sure I have at least like 7 that have moved, since I've done a bit of time traveling (and keeping sure not to let my other dream villagers move out! lol)

yeah i think once you get 7-8 out since they've left thats when they'll show up on main street so you're half way there for sure. :+)

Okay, that makes sense! Yeah I'll definitely have to start keeping track now! Haha
