Oct 13 2008Guy Plays 36 World Of Warcraft Accounts At The Same Time, Runs Raids By Himself

wow-1.jpg

Gamer Prepared runs 36 accounts of World of Warcraft at the same damn time. Why? Because he can, and it's his God-given Canadian right (I don't actually know where he's from).

A lot have asked me, why create so many? The main reason is to invade Stormwind and Ironforge when they reach top level. I'm sure the Alliance will put up a big fight when that happens. We'll see how it goes. If they don't make level 70 before Wrath of the Lich King, then it will be at level 80. That is my main goal. That will probably happen after I've got some PvP gear from the battlegrounds. I'm also planning to do some 25 and 10 man raid instances but that is secondary to my PvP goal. Of course I'll be doing arenas too to build up PvP gear but I'm not expecting to do that great there because I'm way behind in gear right now. I need to get to level 70 first, then level 80 and by then I will probably have all green gear while most others have been doing the battlegrounds and arenas.

It costs me exactly $5711 in subscription costs per year with 36 accounts on the 6 month pay schedule. Not bad considering I'm looking at it like it's a hobby and there are more expensive hobbies out there than World of Warcraft.

When Wrath of the Lich King is released, I plan to be at the store when it opens and will purchase 36 copies of it. With tax, it should be about $1500 for all of them. Then the shaman are on their way to level 80 along with the priest, druid and mage.

Huh? I have no idea what that means because my girlfriend threatened to punch me in the face with her Jetta if I ever touched World of Warcraft (or another woman). But I do know that $5,711 is more money than I make in two years and this guy spends it on game subscriptions. Making him quite possibly the richest man in the world. In spirit. Rich in spirit.

Hit the jump for another picture of the setup, along with some screen shots.

Oh, and if you're a loyal Geekologist living in the Huntsville, AL area, give me a shout and then take me out and buy me a beer. Whee, I'm cheap! No, but seriously.

"It costs me exactly $5711 in subscription costs per year with 36 accounts on the 6 month pay schedule. Not bad considering I'm looking at it like it's a hobby and there are more expensive hobbies out there than World of Warcraft."

like oh lets say.... buying loads of computers and monitors and using all the power to run them, not to mention the extra cost of trying to air condition that room....

dumbass...

last!

How in the hell can you multi task enough to play 30 some odd characters in a raid specific situation. Thats balls.... Lets hope the robot army doesn't recruit him to control a crack unit of assassin bots!!! :O

If you make it up to Michigan, let me know. I'll buy you all the beer you can drink, and then some that you can't, and a bucket, I will definitely buy you a bucket.

I live in Tuscaloosa. I'll buy you a beer if ever I'm in town.

I live close to Huntsville, TX...so you know, if you guys ever trade places, just let me know and beer is yours!

come down to mexico and get from me the free beer (the good thing is that, im actually the first girl to offer this to you...)

or do you preffer it from a guy?

So, that's how you play God?
I have to do that....

How does an unemployed gaming geek afford such a setup?

Sam Deathwalker?

i wanna make fun of him for being such a frikin loser but he still probably gets more action than me with him having an income and all

guy plays 36 WoW accounts at same time....will never have sex

Seriously? Get a girlfriend.... I mean a real one, not an online girl that sent you pictures from a magazine


i'm a loyal geekologist in the mobile area. i'll be near huntsville next month! got any thanksgiving plans? :)

I'm not sure if this is awesome or sad....

@17 Answer:SAD

somebody please kick him in the dick... wait that would be useless by the sounds of it he doesn't use it!!!

Move near Pittsburgh, PA and I'll buy you all the beer you want ;)

Plus I live 20-30 minutes away from The Climax strip club with the drive thru. It's a win-win situation.

I still dont understand the idea of having 36 accounts - the only reason would be if you wanted to play 36 characters at the same time - am I right?

Can some one explain this to me?

I digitally enhanced this picture so that I could zoom in and read the caution on the back of his computer chair, it reads:

"Occupant of this chair is a complete moron"

I bet this guy whacks off 36 times a day.

how do you kill that which has no life

World of Warcraft is so laaaaame! Get a real hobby, maybe one that involves leaving your computer!

Someone pay for me to get a Warcraft account so I can Sword of a Thousand Truths his ass.

so where does he hide his box of tissues? PEWPEWPEW!!! im out of tissue I'll use my dirty sock

Can't you spell FAKE!!!!! across the whole picture on each monitors?

All the "ingame" images are 100% same on each screen.

I'm sure it's because this guy is a fagging loser who wanted to boost his ego and wealthy power. He's not rich, just an idiot.


36x FAKE!

Even if I wanted to do this and he has to control each one of them, I would setup a few CPUs with ONE monitor. You can easily switch which PC you want to use with one Monitor, one keyboard and one mouse. However.... playing 36 of them at the same time, I'd stab myself over this retarded bullshit.

FAKE
FAKE
FAKE
FAKE
FAKE
FAKE
FAKE
FAKE, just like McCain

If you want a beer from me, you need to come to Europe.

MUahahahahaha!

I'm trying to think what hobbies cost $6000+ a year.... and my brain is coming up with like sailing, or scuba, or the sorts of things where you interact with others and, you know, the outdoors. And potentially meet women. Like, ever. Poor fellow...

... & If you make it to Los Angeles, I will fill you with Guinness.

(And if you drink as much as you say you do, you're Irish like me, and love Guinness.)

I was in Huntsville, AL yesterday. You just missed me.

Come to Austin and have beer with a cute girl :)

What a waste of money. If I had $6k, I would have bought Lego statues of myself.

I DO NOT CONDONE THIS BEHAVIOR

goddamn.

f***ing gheyyyy.

Wow..... 40 year old virgin? What an idiot...

holy hell, i can't even play one character right......wtf!!!

FAIL!

i'm in the birmingham, al area . so if you ever make it down here, we can share a 750ml of whiskey and have a grand ol time.

damn, more than a few people from AL.. i'm from birmingham too

you know what would be easier... just getting 35 friends....

It's like mega FAIL in life.

If you're ever in New Zealand I'll have a keg on standby.
It'l be worth the thousands of dollars in air fares because it's a keg.

i'll make ya some spiked tea in Merced CA
-wes-

I know of a few hobbies that cost more than that, like being a prostitute connosseur, yeah it gets expensive! GW..... I would buy you a beer, but I'm way the f*** out in Italy, so an imaginary one will do.

I'll buy him a box of Modafinil so he wont need to sleep anymore.

Maybe is that guy who was in that episode of South Park "Male Love not Warcraft"... He wants revenge!

lol

I'll buy you a pint of Tennants if u come to Sunny Scotland, when i say buy i mean mug you and buy myself

By Catherine of Aragon's ghost this guy scares the muffin out of me.

Playing one WoW account is enough to suck out your life, so 36 accounts would give you a negative life to the power of 36. Thats math you can trust.

Gx

Hey I'm from Italy too... tried to send you a lager through my new scanner but something went wrong.

Anyway that dude must have an hard life with all those computers running Vista :O

Fake!

This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell because the shadows are all wrong. It kinda looks like a scene from "Never Back Down II - Electric Boogaloo"

I live about 30 minutes out from Huntsville! What the hell are you doing down here in alabama? This place blows.

This guy has alot of free time....
and really thats a REALLY expensive hobby no matter what way you look at it....
how does some one afford 36 computers?!

NOT Fake

http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=Portal

You can alter the window size so that multiple instances of WoW running and see them all.

As for controlling 36 accounts, thats easy. Its a keyclone software so you just have to have 1 mouse and keyboard input and it clones it over the other 35 accounts. Cast 1 ability, all 36 cast the same ability at the sametime

Amazing.

I can't understand people who play online games ALONE, not even multiplexing themselves...

All I can get from this is... trackballs must be useful!!

Roberto..... what part of Italy is sucking the life out of you at this time? I am here enjoying bella Napoli, oh wait did I say enjoying? haha! nothing like the good ol' smell of dead animals, gypsies and burning heaps of trash to start your daily commute to work!

Wouldn't a real dork figure out how to run 36 accounts off one machine... you know...

Okay now click on the #7 on "So freaking Cool" section and you will see what the rest of his house looks like.

all of you are just jealous since he is doing what he wants with his life while the rest of you work all day at a dead end job.

This is your "loyal" reader from huntsville. this is good stuff, there's always something that reminds me of co-workers (we're all engineers). oh, i'll spring for a glass of scotch

I remember when WoW first started many years ago. I tried it for 10 minutes and then realized that I would rather have seksyoul relations with a woman and invest my money in something that offers a return.

By the way, I know you said Huntsville, AL but that was my indicator to invite you to my house in Stupidshitsville on a planet in the Nebula region of the Worthless Assclown galaxy which is only a bazillion miles from Huntsville so it would make perfect sense for you to come here.

See what I did there?

Dude, you moved to Alabama!?! If you're ever in Birmingham come on down and we'll drink till we're stupid. Pointing out comment #36, you should probably make a move on that, Austin is full of hotties.

What a FAKE, Loser, retard, non pussy getting homo!!!!!!!!!!

1: his pathetic attempt at making his computer look cool FAILED!!!
2: are you saying he has 36 product codes? (licenses) cause you cant be online with the same license from different computers
3: war craft is gay and anyone who plays it
4: if it were 36 different versions it wouldn't be the same scene on every monitor!

F***in people need to grow up, stop playing with squirt guns and video games, play with pussy you f***in homos!

FAKE FAKE FAGOT FAKE! life's a bitch, now f*** it! Back Down WHAT!

You just know that his original intention was to have 36 internet porn sites all going at the same time.


Actually....it probably wasn't. I weep for some people.

hahaha, shit. I meant comment #32. See I never passed kindergarten so typing a legible comment will never happen.

Also, I hear Huntsville has a lot of cool stuff to do outdoors like rock climbing, kayaking, etc.

madison, al!

Oh, it appears I also forgot to root for the town I live in.

Yay Wheaton Area IL!!!!!!!

local geekologie reader from birmingham, al!

This was an ok article until I read the Huntsville part... then it became awesome. GW, name your bar of choice and I'll see you there....

Ginormagantuan, my life sucks badly in Alessandria :D

Btw I'm not irish but i just came back home with 12 cans of Guinness.
Beer has no frontiers! I'll save one for the GW ... no, non true, sorry.

This guy has a small dick.

One more for Huntsville.
Meet us at Finnigan's Pub and we'll buy you two.

@24 - With the Sword of 1000 Truths

For the idiots saying fake etcc and its impossible to play 36 at a time, as it has been stated u can use multiboxing software to controll all of them from 1 keyboard and mouse; most of the computers are laptops thus the extra keyboards u see around and the stand alone keyboard/mouse are for each individual computer as he still has to set it up/login with each different account before he can mutlibox..

Saying he does not have a life is assuming your life-style is the correct one; Grow up people can live there lives how they see fit.

*insterts random invite to upstate NY for booze of choice from loyal reader, blah blah blah*

I use 2 monitors and can have up to 5-6 accounts on at the same time, but i neither pay for or play all of them all the time, thats ridiculous.

damn! i dont think even I could do that. Wow...

@73, speaking of growing up, why don't you give it a try? Does wonders for the soul.

Montgomery alabama here. Yeahhh lets do that whole beer thing (no homo). But no really, how in the hell did he fit all of those computers and monitors in his parents basement? Also they must have some rediculous internet connectivity. Damn. Its sad but impressive. Super WOW nerd 1, regular WOW nerds 0.

I'M FROM HUNTSVILLE AND I LOVE YOU!

Why only 36? For just a few hundred dollars more he could fill an entire 40 man BG and raid.

This is just disappointing.

Geekologie Writer, what are you doing around Alabama? I'm still waiting your visit here in Brazil! Btw this guy is unbelievable. I have two friends who play WoW and they are slowly drifting away from society and becoming outcast, lonely nerds, so this guy has probably been forgotten by his own mother already.

@73, I don't think you are taking this seriously enough. Please Mr. Politically Correct, come down on everyone that is not flying right. And by come down I mean go down and then up and then down again. Keep this going until you feel all funny in your private parts. When everything gets wet and sticky you know you've suckceeded.

Oh in case ur wondering he plays on Aegwynn server play name consists of different variations of "prepared" (ie preparea, preparee,preparel, etc) .... I'm alliance and was lucky enough to see him running with a raid consisting of 1 of every class.... I got his main lock controller down then promptly died to remainders aoe's .... wtb heals

If you are ever in Washington state I will get you F'ed up!

fake. WoW won't allow more than 5 connections per household so unless he has the bare minimum of 7 internet accounts, this is fake and you are all chumps.

Fake u cant hav 36 accounts on the same server =D that wud b awesome but blizz actualy wanted u to hav some interaction with human life thats why tuesdays were invented =D (must play WOW to get joke),

He doesn't seem to realize that many hobbies are productive, beneficial. THAT, like smoking, is addictively unhealthy for the person and the wallet.

The man's a fool.

my farts really stink tonight

Assuming it's not fake, what a f***ing sad sack prick. Christ, hope he likes spending his whole life a virgin. =|

wow - so many of you react with

beer praise - obvious alcoholics (alcoholics unite)
or
thoughts that the owner must be a super geek - in the most derogotory sense. being all viginy lonely masterbater... or worse yet the kind of person that would fake it all with photoshop.

maybe she's just an ugly girl who has a cool hobby you're jealous of. maybe it's just like you and i.

or maybe my precious has a ridiclous setup i couldn't dream of having.

i'm sure to justify such a real (if) setup you'd have to play often. but maybe not.. maybe geeker just has a lot of autoit3 scripts and loves to build automaters who can follow around and assist... all the characters on all the screen shots are the very same, but it's also a load screen. that's the only way i could imagine.

ZOMG I live outside of Huntsville! I also sent you an e-mail saying that. Sorry to appear as desperate as I am.

I play an even better computer game..

Get a dog turd, stick it in an old cardboard Nintendo game box.
Light it on a neighbours doorstep, ring the bell and run..

You score maximum points if it squirts up his leg as he stamps it out..

You dont need an online account to play this either so no costly yearly subscriptions.. enjoy

I am so jealous if only I could have so many screens to view at once, trouble is I'm epileptic, cross eyed with a tic so I can only play frogger for 2 minutes a day otherwise suffer the wrath of a million migraines with the risk of mouth foam

Last!!!! Anyone after me is irrelevant and gay.

Well, I'll agree with you on the irrelevant part... but you sir, are the gayiest gay gay that ever gayed.

this guy is my hero. To organize that many accounts is rediculous!

that is insane...

let's all say this together now... "LOSER!"

To everyone that says FAKE ... ur retarded. u are allowed 5 toons per server per account... however u can't play more then 1 toon from each account at the same time. He has 36 SEPERATE accounts that he logs on to and probably a t3 connection. U can set up macros to control other toons that are set to follow u in game... multiboxerdotcom or something like that is a good resource for people who want to do this. This is 100% within WOW's TOS and Blizzard has said that as long as you control 1 of the toons the associated macros still require you to hit the button initially and therefor its is within the warcraft terms. For the initial thread that started his fame go to warcraft realm forum then go to Aegwynn... look for the post: (there was an initial post when he was lvl like 5 but no one caught on til he got his lvls up more and could kill 70's)

30'ish multi-boxing Shaman

He's farming the freaking accounts.
They'll all wind up on Ebay, or some other website.
Either that or he's using them to farm gold or items.

@ 91
You beaner stop talking..

FAIL.

This guy is one Madafakar! I myself couldn't even handle my level 60 MU character.

WOW...... #99 , what a total fag, dude..... WoW is pretty gay.......... why spend all them hours playing this game while you would be watching porn playing with something else? i mean DUH! what kind of loser doesn't watch hours upon hours of porn? i don't know anyone that doesn't

Hahahahah I like your girlfriend. I told my boyfriend the exact same thing(substituting Golf for Jetta) and that he'd be on the street if he went anywhere near it.

Umm... what DOES he do for a LIVING to be ABLE to SPEND $5,711 in WOW membership?

ps: don't gank that guys lowbie

hey, has anybody heard "Too Much Time On My Hands"? I think i finally figured out who Styx was talking about.

make some friends and u dont have to do that
noob

It's not that he frantically switches back and forth between characters. That would be nearly impossible. There are scripts you can run that allow you to control multiple characters from a single interface. So essentially you click the "attack" button and all 36 of your characters attack the target, you press the "heal" button and all your healers heal your fighters. He probably does independently control the characters at times when the mass character scripting won't work, but I'd almost guarantee that most of the time he's running them all in one big automated horde.

lol

The guy is an RMT. Real Money Trader. He either sells the accounts or farms for gold.

This guy's brilliant... he's probably earning 4 times what he's spending... Powerlevel service, gold farming, selling accounts... check markeedragon. He has probably sold tons of accounts ranging from $300-$600 each.

I would buy you a beer but 1. i live no where near you and 2. im only 14

playing 36 versions of the same game at one time all day - thats a life, a very sad one though

where is the video?

So much jealously in this thread.

Calling HIM a virgin = your not getting laid sorry.

If he can afford to pay 36x$15 a month = $540 a month in subscription fees im sure he can afford to have a some hooker suck him of each and every raid to.

Not to mention if u can afford a fkin awesome internet connection to do it, all that hardware your probably doing ok in life.

Also if you got the time to spend all that $$$$$$$$ on equipment and play WoW you obviously have won at real life cause your not working are you.

This guy > 90% of posters here.

why don't you just play Warcraft 3 ?

Haaarrggghh !!!! Le site de fouuuuuussss !!!! x'D

Eh mon gars un conseil mais SORS. Coupe tous les abonnements que tu as et bouge ton cul de ton siège, avec la tune que tu économise, je sais pas vas voir des putes, fait des voyages, j'en sais rien mais ne fait plus rien de virtuel tu es trop extrême quand tu te lances dans le virtuel. Sérieux fais ce que je te dis et tu verras tu te sentiras mieux =).

fury warrior: neruaxidz from stormrage US. alliance server.

i see people asking where he works or what he does?

well if he can handle those 36 account he could make his own farming gold company and website for wow and his income will be minimun 800 dollars at day.

plp. he didnt wrote this post, so nobody here knows the real point of why he is having so many accounts. you want to know? ask him and thats it.

sorry for badspelling, english is my secondary lang.

maybe what u see in the picture is his work station or his office and outside that room he got a lamborgini and 3 playboy so he dont need girlfriend and maybe the house where that room is worth 5 million. who knows? do you?

what about you?

Well. . . I just want to know how long it takes you to log in to all of those accounts. because they each have to have different passwords and i'm sure it is silly to have to remember all of those so you most likely have something to do it for you correct?

btw, 36 accounts is awesome ^_^
I can only afford 2.

and lastly.. I couldn't read all of the posts which everyone wrote because they became monotonous, but it is possible to run multiple accounts at once. what happens is every single one of the characters make the same movements at the same time when you set it up right.

great fuking set up i want the same one adn they the programs with it along with tthe great sex u have plus ur set up is awesome btw for everyone calling hom a loser wtf r u doing besoides dieng while this guy lives as a legend

why would anyone want to play 36 accounts of wow why ?????? this is insane really insane this dedication to a computer game why not use the time and money on something else like becoming a president or prime minister becoming a terrorist or finding cure for cancer anything buy a ferrari or as i would safe up for a m5 bmw it´s more fun.

Hardcore player, but this would take the social aspect of the game totally out of the picture which in my mind is one of the main reasons people play MMO's in general. Socialize, acquire, bragging rights, etc. What do I know though:)

Mr. WoW addict, time to come out from mommy's basement.

Seriously.

This has gone above and beyond a simple hobby. This is a sick addiction.

i personally thing its way cool :D
An awesome achivement.. and its a hobby like everything else.. and its the guyes own life.. and if this is what he wanan do with it.. im all in for it. Im sure the person who plays the accounts also have a social life on the side, as most ppl do.. and even if not.. i will not be the judge of him.. its his desision :D

I would be mad if it was my husband who did this... .though on the otherside i would know where he was all the time :D

thats stupid i bet most of the characters are standing still at once, unless hes using mmoglider lol.. and then sells them all!!

man that's crazy

Why does everyone assume that he's unemployed and/or living with his mom? Does anyone assume that a guy who is obsessed with classic cars is unemployed?

"Anyone who spends that much time on a mid 60s porsche is a looser [sic]. MOve out of your mom's basement and get a job (because you have a very expensive obsession that, clearly, you couldn't afford without a pretty decent income)!!111!"

Jeez, what a waste of money. 5k+ alone on subs and proberly 1k a month on the Electricity Bill. Thats not a hobby, thats life consuming over a Video Game. Want a hobby? By a damn Ford Mustang and fix it up.

wow, if hes such a loser , y r u all sitting on the internet all day insulting ppl , when u obviously have no life for pelvis function either , and its obvious he makes 10X than ne of u a year , and BTW , way too many ford mustangs on the road , count over 2 every time i drive somewhere

just freaky^^ and all guys who are leaving angry comments: U R JEALOUS!!!!

How did you get 4 wow programs to run together on the same screen? if it is a third party program could you tell me what it is?

ok so this guy has a bunch cool shit, yes but all of you who call him a fake and crap need get a life themselves! WoW is great a fun way to pass away time, and yes you could be doin other hobbies you enjoy but this guy enjoys playin wow so cutt him some slack. Do wht you enjoy doin now stop givin this guy a hard time!

Hello, your blog great, refueling

This guy is legit, play on Aegwyn horde side. Look up firstplace his main guy
