Those times when villagers move in on your path...

Elvis moved in about two weeks back, and he place his house RIGHT in front of my bridge and smack in the middle of my planned path area. :/ and I couldn't plot reset because I selected my Mayor. Wasn't expecting anyone to move in. >_<

I think it can be frustrating at times and it will definitely save you grief if we could just pick but I always picture the villager running around town like we did and picking their house (and defying the logic of paths :3) I usually wait until I get everyone plotted before adding paths and if I move someone out, I try to get the newcomer around the same spot as the villager who moved out. Hopefully the next AC will have a better system with the villagers choosing their house locations.

I picked a little secluded "peninsula" area for my house and then a new neighbor moved almost uncomfortably close haha
