I knew it, because I've already placed around 9 in my friends town.
So I think, that you can place as much as the maximum of 10 is reached.

Maybe somebody else can confirm.

Well I just placed 5 in one twon so it is defenatly more then 3.

Yeah i thought it was more than 3 too cos i dropped about 7 in a friends town, ill edit it to 10

How do you know when you get the goo from your friends town that you dropped the gremlin in

Gremlins are going to get up to a lot of mischief while you are away, it is up to you whether you want to help your friends or not. Let’s look at the reason why.

EA have stated that we can drop 10 gremlins in each of your friend’s towns. This is one of the methods you have to collect goo, which is the “currency” needed to claim the prizes. Whether your friend squashes them or not you will receive goo. The statement was that if your gremlin survives 4 hours he will collect 4 goo for you. Note: if your friend doesn’t squash, your friend doesn’t get. If he manages to get squished before the 4 hours are up, you and your friend will share it between you. In other words, you’ll both get 2 goo each.

One more thing to remember though, like the snakes of whacking day, you can only have a certain amount of gremlins in your town at any given time. This magic number is 10. It may be EA’s thinking that any more then 10 gremlins in your town at any given time, may result in complete chaos and a destroyed town, again.

There you have it. To recap;

The maximum amount of gremlins you can have in your town at one time is 10.
If your gremlins are deviant enough to outrun your friend, they will collect 4 goo for you and your friend will get nothing.
If you gremlins get flattened by the giant finger in the sky, you and your friend will get 2 goo each.
Although they are collecting goo from your friend’s town, they aren’t like Lisa during Whacking Day. They will not steal your friends goo. They are more along the lines of harvesting new goo.

Great info subii42 thanks for posting. :)

You can also drop more than 10 gremlins per town per day if that person is squashing them. I dropped 200 on a neighbor yesterday. It kinda like egg swaps on whacking day if you plan it right.

Thank you Subii for posting this. I think the gremlins have caused the most confusion on this update in part stemming from the WD fiasco of stealing snakes. This is especially important as the majority of people will be starting the ghost hunting today as they did not speed up their gypsy house.

I have been surprise at the relative lack of gremlins I have received so far, again compared to eggs received during WD. I also can totally see new threads starting about "Gremlin Trade Buddies". The only problem I see is that, like I said, I am not getting a "ton" of gremlins as yet so I would not know even how many to commit to trade

You'll get a pop-up, when you entering the game.

Thanks

Yes you did, I returned the favor.

Also, is there any way a MOD can sticky this post. It is should be here and in the Walkthrough/FAQ page since this information will be a common, FAQ
