I'm Cursed

Last night I made it the little electronics store that sold the IDE/SATA Converter before they closed. Plugged it all in and powered up. Nothing, not a thing. Apparently there are compatibility issues with motherboards and these SATA Adapters.

/sigh

Oh well. Now I’ll have to wait until Saturday Morning and Ill just buy an IDE Hard Disk.
This did give me a chance to play around a bit more with my controls. I seem to be having a few issues with the Attack Focus target but I am sure I will work them out;).

I did notice though, that having a Level 21 Lock dragging around a level 6 Shadow Priest is not what I would call power levelling... Now my original plan for my 3 Account Levelling team was to also use my Shammy, level 42. Now I am starting to think this may be a distinct disadvantage. The solution? I will start with my Level 25 Mage and swap to my Shammy when they hit 40's.

I have not really been able to run 3 accounts as yet as it’s just too slow on the one PC. Once I do I will start learning to play the three players and see if I can get the hang of it. The Theory is nearly bedded down but the practice is going to suck;).

Interesting :)

I'll be following your progress closely. Are there any issues with Blizzard concerning the "multiplayering"?

Blizzard appears to have no issues. There are a couple of forum threads on http://www.dual-boxing.com/ that have Screen capped GM discussions.
As long as you are controlling the characters there is no issue.
When you think about it, would not blizzard like everyone too have 2 or 3 accounts each?

Ahh, ok. I guess Blizz would be more than happy for all nine million to cough up for another two accounts :) My thought was that I could be seen as borderline cheating - some other games explicitly outlaw more than one account pr. person. However, that would mostly be more static games as opposed to a WoW "action" game. Without any knowledge about it at all, I would assume controlling several characters in the heat of battle would be fairly complex - all the more credit to you for pulling it off :)

Anyways, look forward to hear about your experience. Definately a new one for me!

Good luck :)

If this was the best way I could think of cheating..... hehe. It is very hard. I would say that even if I was the Best Druid in the world, as soon as I am controlling 3 toons in the heat of battle I would have the skill of an Ebayer;)
