Strategy for additional toons

While many people have multiple toons (up to six on member accounts), there are some good reasons for having a second toon with specific characteristics. Creating an additional toon can help your main toon in several ways:

1. Multiple Doodle Toon-up at your estate: Each toon on your account can own a doodle. Having more than one doodle means that you can train all of them at the same time, with pretty much the same effort as training one. With four doodles, you can get up to 20 heal points with Jump! (4 doodles x 5pts) - and more if they are maxed on Jump! (up to 4 doodles x 10 points = 40 points if they all jump at once). You can see how you can very quickly heal at your estate after a battle if you have multiple doodles. Also - I'm not sure - but I suspect that the doodles help each other learn tricks - as it seems that they train faster when there are multiple doodles around. Of course, you can get the same effect if you invite your toon friends to a doodle training party at one of your estates - but each toon only brings one doodle with them on their visit.

2. Different gag tracks: Since a toon can only have six of the seven possible gag tracks, it's good to be able to develop a toon with a different set of gag tracks. You can see how having a different set of gags affects your battle strategy. For extra challenge - develop a toon without Sound or Toon-up - but be prepared for some grief from immature toons.

3. Keep a "New toon" new: If you keep a toon at 25 Laff or less, you can use this toon to help friends who need to "Help a New Toon..." for a toon task. If you use this toon enough to max the gag levels - you'll have an Uber toon who can still help with those New Toon tasks without worrying about going sad - like when doing cog buildings.

4. Doodle Training: My main toon usually has friends that are online - and always too busy fighting cogs and helping friends to train the doodles. Buy doodle tricks for a doodle trainer toon so that you will be able to train your doodles in peace - without feeling bad about not answering help requests from friends.

5. More Friends: Since each toon can have up to only 50 friends, having multiple toons means you can have more friends! 6 toons x 50 friends = 300 friends. You can have toons for different time zones.

6. Different Toons: You can have boy and girl toons, different animal toons, toons with a theme, etc. I have a toon that's got a cowboy outfit and is named after a famous "gunslinger" - his house is decorated with all things cowboy.

7. Twin toons: With your friends - you can each create identical toon twins. I've even got a toon that is part of a triplet. If you all create these toons at the same time, you can see how long you can keep the tasks and gags in sync. Give all the toons the same outfits and speedchat phrases and emotions. And watch a crowd of other toons gather around just to watch!
