Gift Levels - How to make use of such a fiddly system - Help?

[OzPhoenix]

LONG POST: Sorry.

Ok, so previously I 5-boxed a group of lvl70 Shamans. With the introduction of RAF, I decided to expand to 7 boxing, so I could level up some alternate teams quickly and have them join long forgotten single-boxed alts I have lying around. Here's the plan:

Team 1: 5 Shamans (all levelled for quite a while now)

Team 2: 5 Mages. Using RAF I levelled 4 Mages to 60. They'll join my lvl66 Mage at the appropriate time.

Team 3: 5 Hunters. The 4 RAF Hunters hit level 40 last night. They'll join my level 70 Hunter in due course.

Team 4: 1 Paladin, 3 Warlocks, 1 Priest. Will start on the Pally/Locks shortly. A lvl61 Priest waiting for them.

So, here's how I set it up.

Account 1 is RAF linked to a newly created Account 6.
Account 2 is RAF linked to a newly created Account 7.
Accounts 3, 4 and 5 remain untouched.

Each team of 4 used a character created on Accounts 1, 2, 6 and 7.

By the team Team 2 levelled, I should have had 29 Gift levels to hand out from Accounts 6 and 7. Team3's levelling should have increased that to 2 lots of 58.

Now, here's the rub....

I wanna now level Team 4 and use up all these gift levels to do it, since I'm getting frankly bored with Azeroth-levelling now (and ready to /wrists if I see the inside of SM again...lol).

Best I can figure is this:

1. Level Paladin, 3 Warlocks (on Accounts 1,2,6 and 7 respectively) to Level 31.9.

2. Use half my supply of gift levels getting Paladin(1) and Warlock(2) to 60.9.

3. Transfer Warlock(6) and Warlock(7) to Accounts 1 and 2 and repeat the gifting process.

4. Transfer the two Warlocks back to their home accounts.

5. Transfer Shamans off Accounts 4 and 5 and allow those accounts to expire, returning me back to 5 concurrent accounts.

What's peeps think of this?

Hehe - if I had that patience, I'd probably just level the 4th team. As it is, I'm rather handing over money to Blizzard to use up the gift levels to do it. 2 x Transfer fee there, and twice more on the way back. I just can't see any other way of doing it.

As long as you don't mind spending the money. Its all for the sake of entertainment anyway what good is money if you don't spend it.

True - if money were the only concern I'd probably feel uncomfortable with 7 accounts, but I'm all good with that if it gets my teams...hehe.
