How do you manage multiple towns?

I think the user Dorian actually holds that title of most games on the forum. I think she has 5 games atleast, she's pretty good at managing her town and villagers. I don't think i'd ever be able to manage that many villages, it takes time and patience I guess. She also actively looks for villagers for these towns too, now that's dedication. I'd probably get confused with that many towns, so props to her, haha.
I have seven towns at the moment. All my towns play in real time so I only have to do a quick check of each daily to keep up with things/anyone planning on moving/etc. I usually pick one town per day to work on in any depth. (And yes, I'm slightly addicted to this game.)

Kudos to you! Only reason why I have my towns almost 4 months apart each is so that they each have different bushes planted, haha.
Wow! 70 Villagers! XD

I have 4 real towns and some spare towns that just grow perfect fruit.
Right now 2 real towns are frozen after I stopped a mover. One of those frozen towns does get open each day to clear the streetpass tag from my other 3DS. It's opened on the last day played and than shut down right away. I have extra 3DS. If you use one 3DS you need to write the last day played in your notes or on the gaming case. The activity log wouldn't work if more than one ACNL game is played on a single 3DS.
My main and guest town gets played every day. In my guest town the mayor does a quick check to see if anyone moving. Sally the side player there takes over and works on her badges.

I have two towns that I try to maintain everyday. Shokushu for the most part is complete, so I do that to work on badges and get villager pictures. Tansei is my current project, due to starting it last month. It's simple for me, but I can't imagine managing both towns if one wasn't as complete as it is. It's fun to have two, though!
I have 2 main towns and 1 cycle town. TBH I need to get back on my cycle town, but usually I manage Sapphire and Palinoia pretty well. Every once in awhile I focus on one town more the other, (I've landscaping and other things in Sapphire all day) but sometimes I forget about them. (Like lately)

I'm currently managing five towns, three of mine and two for my hubby. I haven't been doing any real work in any of them, just making sure villagers don't move and little things like that.
So once someone permanent pings to move and I stop them, I can stop maining that town for awhile and focus on others. And if no one pings to move and I can't play for awhile, I make a note of the last day I played and then TT back to that day on the starting screen.

I currently have 3 towns and I don't find them too hard to manage. That's only cuz I keep the two towns I'm done with frozen on a certain day though. My favorite part of ac is designing and landscaping the town so that's all I really do with my towns. I honestly wonder how many copies of ac I'll get for the purpose before getting bored of it.

I have three towns (two NL and one WW) and a lot of free time. Most days, I only play for a few minutes in each town.

I have four ACNL towns, and I'm in college, so sometimes I just have to set my clock back in order to play and not lose any dream villagers. I usually do basics on all of the towns (i.e. checking shops, getting move pings, watering flowers, etc), but my main town is like 98% complete, so I don't have much left to do other than deflect movers and collect items for my other towns, my second town has most of the landscaping done, I'm just breeding hybrids and fishing for PWP requests when I have time. My third town has a good bit of the landscaping done, I'm just slowly collecting dreamies. My fourth town is probably the one I pay the most attention to right now because I just started it not too long ago, so I've been figuring out where I want to put everything and how I want to landscape it. Some days I don't have time to play any of my towns and somedays I only have time for a couple of them. I TT backwards a lot so I don't lose anyone.
I have atm two towns, but in different 3DS devices so is very easy to manage.
One is my main, which is a 'Cat Town'. The other one is now mainly for TT, but I plan in the future to make it into a Japanese style town.
I'm filling both museums, and getting all the shops, but the main one I'm also trying to complete the catalog.
I'm pretty noob and I'm still learning tons of stuff, and my towns are both a bit under construction so that might take a while ^^'
I actually have three 3DS, so I'm thinking on buy another ACNL used game to get a 3rd town in the future

), only 2 are really managed, my main NA and JP ones.
I have 3 game copies. Two main and one cycle...although my second main is on a hiatus until my first town is bunkered down. Since I am focusing mainly on my first town, I don't have an issue with my second town. I just long on once a day to keep it on the same day, which is the first day I became mayor lol. I don't "manage" my cycle town, it's just until I get my dreamies, once that is done I will turn my cycle town into an actual town (and then get another copy lol). I do weed, dig up X-marks and fish periodically (usually before a trade).
i'm terrible at maintaining multiple towns and i'm always really impressed when i see people with multiple. i just can't seem to care about one when i have another. there's always some imbalance where i don't like one as much as the other and therefore find it a chore to pick the other up.
i've just settled with having one as a main town and one as a cycling town. i was happy with my two towns at one point but tbh that was only because one was completely finished and all i had to do was load up my mayor and spend 10 minutes doing some jobs but i feel like i wasn't really enjoying it at that point.. yeah

I focus on my main town since I'm trying to get dreamies for it but it is full. My cycle town is holding 3 of my dreamies. Someday I'll make my cycle town a secondary main town. Right now I basically just load up my cycle town and dig or shake trees. Then I do whatever I want /need to in my main town.
