Sorry to burst your bubble but what it says on page 62 of the manual and what they say at EA are both correct, how so you say ?
Well read the phrase carefully -
You may have multiple Spore accounts for each installation of the game.
Its just EA being clever with their wording, what theyre saying is you can play with multiple accounts on each pc (each installation) , and not as you first presume that you can have multiple accounts per copy purchased.
The feature to switch accounts works fine, you just have to have those multiple accounts ie by buying multiple licenses (copies) of the game.
Dont get me wrong Im not defending EA , just trying to save you guys some wasted time and money banging your head against the EA wall.
