I found that the towns with the most premium content seemed to be worth a $5 increase with each tap. So in theory, the first is worth $22 and the 300th is worth $1517. You could then tap three items in "other Springfield" at $1517 each. So your grand total, in theory, could be as high as $235k per day. :shock:
Do we have a clear definition of "a lot" of premium content? Like 4-5 premium buildings, or more than that? Premium characters count too, I assume?

I will pay closer attention next time I collect and see if I find this as well.
Or as long as you tap the towns with the most premium items first, then the bonuses carry over to the non-premium towns. But trying to figure out and remember which towns have the most premium content would be a chore. But like collecting coins you don't have to do it forever to get enough cash or coins for what you need.
Keep us posted.
Chibihalo; All of us poor people will just have to unite, I suppose. I think there are enough of us out there to get everyone to however many friends they please. I'm not too concerned with the bonus. Either I get it or I don't. I have a little bit of premium content, but I'm sure not enough to keep myself from getting the boot. Oh well.
You totally stole that off me.
DohMoe, is that you?

You can read it in detail there but I collected a total of 61718$ with 91 friends. You do have to collect only one building per town per visit. So not three buildings at once in a town.
If your friend list is relatively stable, it would probably be worth jotting down payouts as you visit friends one time (that's how I discovered that what building you tap and your friends' level/star rating don't matter). Without deleting/replacing friends you'll be able to increase your payout just by changing the order you visit your friends.
For example, if you have 10 friends maxxed out with premium stuff then you could tap one item in each of their towns one time, then go back for a second and then a third tap for each. That (I believe) would give you $22 for the 1st tap and $167 for the 30th. You could then visit your other 90 friends and other springfield and tap all three items in each town in one visit, getting at least $167 for each tap. That would net you over $48k without having to exit/reenter 90% of your friends' towns or change any of your friends.
Play smarter, not harder!
Me gusto.
Sorry Sonny. I loved it & forgot who I had seen use it. Next time I'll give you credit, promise
After visiting about 30 more friends, taking detailed notes of all (visible) premium characters, buildings, and decorations, I am starting to lean toward the bonus simply being the friend's bonus (star rating plus all premium item bonuses), with your own bonus added on top. It is really tricky to figure out the details though, as fractional bonuses from friends with little premium content (i.e. a few burning bushes) still carries over in the running total.
Just joking, silly. Playing my part, I'm the sheriff around here, haven't you heard?
