Gremlin Guide

I say squish them when you see them. This actually increases everyone's numbers if you have active friends. I could let 10 gremlins sit around for 4 hours and one person can get 40 goo, or I can clear them 5 minutes after they are dropped, we each get 20 and then another neighbor can drop their 10. So then I can click them and get us each 20 more. So in a much shorter time I have gained 40, and given 2 friends 20 each. That's 80 goo total in a much shorter time than just letting one persons 10 sit around for hours for a total of only 40 goo.

I second this, way too many people are letting those 10 gremlins lock up their quota for the full four hours, and they aren't even getting anything out of it! I would say 80% of my friends are at 0 gremlins that I can drop when I visit, at any time of the day.

Assuming you have friends who are awake and visiting your Springfield exactly when the four hours expires, around the clock, then your total quota of gremlins per day is 60 at the most - but in reality probably 30-40 due to sleep, gaps between visits, etc. So say 40 gremlins is the realistic maximum per day, that's 160 goo to the friends lucky enough to be able to drop a gremlin in your town - and none to you.

However, if you have 100 friends and they were each able to drop 10 gremlins when they visited, that would be 1000 gremlins per day, 2000 goo to you and 2000 goo to your friends - everyone gets more goo! And that's not even the theoretical maximum, if people could visit you multiple times in one day and drop gremlins every time they visited, it could be even higher.
