Of course it is allowed.

I don't see how EA could possibly police them and identify feeder towns if they are being linked to separate e-mail addresses with separate Origin IDs. Even if they could identify multiple towns being played on the same device, they wouldn't be able to distinguish a person playing multiple feeder towns from multiple members of a family all playing their games on the same tablet. I'm guessing feeder towns would be much more of an issue in games that are more competitive between users - Tapped Out is much more of a cooperative game than a competitive one.I haven't bothered with a feeder town as I spend too much time already just playing my one town! 8)

Awesome, thanks! The other game I play a lot is Neopets, and you're allowed to have side accounts, but you're not allowed to really do anything on them, which is why it surprised me so much to see people talking openly about playing on other accounts here. I'm going to make one and see how it goes. :)

You can drop things in the town. But I think this is the first event where it actually makes a difference to your town (like with these eggs). And even then you have to remember to not tap the gremlins in your second town. And even if a feeder town helps, it helps a tiny amount compared to the overall scope of the event. If I had a feeder town it would be to try different design ideas, not done as a way to 'help' my primary town accumulate cash or prizes more quickly.

If towns could trade donuts or items, I could understand not allowing multiple accounts, but at most a feeder town can give your main town event stuff (gremaliens now, spying during stonecutters, gift bags last xmas, etc) and tap whatever you might specifically want tapped. They're very convenient, but not game-breaking. I mean, you still only get 100 neighbors. So yeah, you can have however many towns you feel like. (One member here has a dozen towns. That's dedication.)

Okay, so I just made the new town, and I noticed something very strange. When I visit my towns, none of the characters are doing the things they're supposed to be doing. I'm looking at my new little town now from my main town. Homer, Lisa, and Ned are all supposed to be in the Quick-E-Mart, and Kang is supposed to be in the Brown House. But when I look at it from my main town, Apu is feeding the Octuplets, Ned is jogging, Lisa is playing the sax, Homer's just wandering, and Kang is seasoning humans. Is this normal?When I visit my main town from my feeder town, it looks like all my characters are aimlessly walking around when they're supposed to be on various other tasks. How strange.

I originally started my second town just to give me something to do during the long stretches of down time the game has.

I started my B-Town to see how things had changed for newbies since I'd started 7 months previous. It does allow me to experiment with questions that come up. It also allows me to try different things. Like in this event my A-Town has the Ray Gun, while my B-Town has Witch Marge.

I did the same thing when I started my feeder although I did it to see how long it'd take playing freemium with only premium items are the ones won from mystery box or purchased with earned donuts
