i wonder how many inactive towns there are? A lot of people only play for a short while and then abandon their towns forever.

If only we could have all that wasted land shared out between us active players! :-o

Good point. I had to delete about 5 users who hadn't played in months.. Shame as some of them were really good neighbours (kungpao if you're reading this!)

He came back. :wink:

"I personally don't bother with feeder towns as it just doesn't seem worth the effort. It's also basically cheating."
Everybody has a different way of playing the game and I can't see how "feeder towns" would be cheating. Just because you have a different style?

Mild cheating, but cheating nonetheless. Using 10 feeder towns to bump up event currency is cheating in my book.

My son's a teacher. He tutors on the weekends to "bump up" his supply of currency. He and his wife just bought a new dining room set. I never thought of it as cheating until you said that. I'm ashamed of him now. ;)

Annette - this nearly killed me I laughed so hard!

I don't have a feeder town but they definitely aren't the problem with the game at all, as was said earlier you generally only play one at a time and then the others are just a file on a database somewhere, I had multiple whatever's before but didn't bother with one in this game as in the past but usually end up not playing the mini accounts as I've just not got the time for them, so for myself if someone wants 10 feeder towns then good luck to them :)

I haven't read the entire thread so not sure if someone else has already brought this up, but my guess is that abandoned towns from players who give up the game take up a whole lot more space than feeder towns of active players.

I'd definitely agree with you there, the database must contain millions of dead lands that no one plays anymore.
