Who is from Samidale?

[TheCreeperHugz]

Jambette just moved into my town today. I was really confused when Isabelle said someone new was moving in, since I had 9 villagers already and didnt get anyone from the campsite.
I went to see Jambette, this new frog villager (I'm being invaded by frogs, Prince came a few days ago) and she said she used to live in Samidale. Who's town is Samidale?

Also, I thought that they would only move in to your town it you talked to them when they were packed up, but I've never seen, nevermind talked to, Jambette before.

Nope, if you talk to them when they aren't packed you will get them when they move out from their old town (only if they havent been recruited by someone else)

I noticed this across my three towns that they will automatically go to someone who have had small chit chat with them.

You can also get your 10th villager from street pass.

Ive never talked to Jambette before (didnt even know who she was till she moved in...)
And the only person Ive ever streetpassed with is my friend, who doesnt have new leaf yet.

I think if you've had any sort of online interaction with someone while one of their villagers is moving, and no one decides to pick the villager up, they could end up in your town instead.

So similar to the way it worked in WW?

 

[mayortash]

Sounds like it, yep.

Ok, but that still doesnt answer the thread title xD
it has to be someone from here because i havent connected with anyone from other places unless you count my friend Devin, but his town is Crackers, not Samidale.

But maybe he connected with someone in Samidale and for some reason (maybe a full town) the villager was kept in their "11th slot" which meant that when you wifi'd with your friend you got Jambette. Make sense?
