Multiple Accounts?

I've been a longtime lurker around here, but since we're finally about to get our first real taste of the game (Creature Creator), I though I'd join. But I have a quick question for now.

I've heard that when you first start the creature creator, you're asked to register an account for the Sporepedia. My question is that can you have more than one account for this? I have a brother that will be playing Spore too, and I don't want to have to share an account.

Welcome to totalspore, Hobbies230!,

You can have more then one account, with the same game, but you need two e-mails & different login-names!

Re: Multiple Accounts?

I'm sorry for reviving this topic, but it seems that I can't register two accounts. I set up my account today when I downloaded the Creator, but now I cannot find a way to register another account for my brother. It only asks me if I would like to log in.

Please don't tell me that my brother cannot create his own account! sad

Re: Multiple Accounts?

I had this problem too, except that for me the leaked trial version gave me problems wink  One idea: maybe you could try registering an EA account under his email first and then possibly he will be prompted for a user name when he tries to log in?

https://profile.ea.com/acctcreate.do?re … .ea.com%2F

Failing that, my solution was to uninstall and then reinstall.  It then prompted me to register again.  I didn't ever get registered properly the first time, so it's not exactly the same situation you're in, but I bet it'd work for you too.

Re: Multiple Accounts?

You can either uninstall and then reinstall or just install it again in a different location on the hard drive and then uninstall it when your done.  It seems like there isn't a way to make an account on the web so (for the time being) this is the only way.  Let me know if it works.
