Multiple towns?

Ok so I've been seeing people post that they have more then one town. Do you access them both from the same device or use a different device for each town? Also if you use the same device for both is this one of the reasons for people losing entire towns? Cuz I've worked for over a year on the one I have and would not be a happy camper if I lost it. And what would I have to do? Just create a different origin account? I wouldn't mind having an additional town...not that I don't spend enough time on the one I already have...but I'm just not sure how to go about it. Thanks in advance.

If your primary (first? only?) Springfield is already registered under a valid Origin ID, then you have the option of either creating a new Origin account for an additional S/F or using the unregistered instance if it's not already in use on your primary device.

Each individual device (at least this is the case on Android) can host only one unregistered Springfield, but once a game is registered with a valid Origin ID, you can play that town on *any* device. The town follows your id, not your device.

So ... just start up TSTO, log out of Origin if it's already logged in, and you will immediately be able to start a new town unless someone has already done so on your device. If there is already an unregistered S/F on your device, you can associate it with a new Origin account ... exit & restart TSTO, tap the 'login' button, create a new Origin ID. The system will come back and say there is already a Springfield on this device and ask you if you want to use it with your (new) ID. Respond yes, and the previously unregistered S/F will now be associated with the new acount you just created.

Repeat that process for every new / additional instance of Springfield you wish to create.
