For starters, my town was the very first town I got (like, no resetting) and Fang was one of my starting villagers. I also got Erik and Cherry as random move ins without knowing how high they were on the tier list.
ZUCKER!! lol
I lost him out of my main town, Tubetown in a TTing booboo, and was devastated! I came on game to see an empty spot where his house had been ... all lined up along the riverbank with my other dreamies, Diana, and Marshal ... silly really, but I almost cried! ... and I'm a grown woman
However ... I picked him up in my third town the next day! My Mayor was walking around and Ta-dah! ... there was the roped off build site for my precious Zucker .... so its all good ... not quite perfect, but I still have him!
The popular villager I got from a random move in was Pietro, waaaaaaay back when I started the game. Was it pleasant? No, I am easily creeped out by clowns.
However, when I explored the villagers list, Kiki was my top dreamie and joined forums as I learned that they could help you get a dream villager, but she moved in randomly after Katt & Gaston moved out
Antonio. He came from a person's town I visited, but I never talked to him. I'm not sure why he decided to move in. I'm trying to get him to leave, but I'm not having any luck. DX
I'm only just getting back into the game after a few unsuccessful starts to it, but in my first and longest running town I remember that both Diana and Merengue moved in randomly... which I may be trying to obtain again because they're so cute.
