This morning I started up my game to find that Deirdre had set up a plot right where my 10th villager used to live. I know for a fact that she moved in from a friend's void. My question is, if I had attempted a plot reset before loading up my mayor, would there have been a chance of someone else moving in? Or do villagers from a friend's void take priority? I already have two deer villagers and am wondering if things could've turned out differently, haha. Thanks!

I am almost positive a random villager would not have moved in and that the Deidre would be the priority. However, I believe if you had used an amiibo reader and villager card, that villager would have voided Deirdre and taken her place. Pretty sure.
This happened to me (with Deirdre too, what are the odds), and I learned that the priority goes to the last ""invite"". So if you invite someone (like I did) but afterwards have a friend over and they have a villager in their void, the voided villager will plot because they're the last "invite" (I didn't invite her, game!)
If the opposite happens, you have 9 villagers, have a friend over but before 6 am comes go to other town and invite someone, this will be the villager who plots, as they're the last invite.
Amiibos break all these laws though.

Thanks for the confirmation! I generally don't travel much out of my town, but the one friend I regularly play with has already given me two accidental villagers so I'm thinking I should be a bit more careful, lol.
After that event, I decided I wouldn't travel or open gates ever again when I had 9 villagers. Only with a full town it's safe to go online, unless you're going somewhere to adopt your 10th, of course.
