And I'm ready to go! I'll be running 2 accounts on 2 computers. I have decided that I am going with deathknights. For the past week I have been practicing with 2 warriors to get melee combat down.

I was wondering if anyone has come up with a fix for synergies mad mouse twirl yet. I would like to go back and forth between computers and switch leaders.

Anyhow is anyone else as excited as I am? :D

It's very fast to change between toons.

Generally speaking, I hate window shopping. Expansion leaks have been going on for a long time now, and I never payed any of it any heed. This is partially because I want to retain the shiny newness of it all when it *does* hit and partially because I can't -play- wrath at the moment, so I don't bother checking it out.

But yesterday I caved in to my curiosity. I just wanted to see what DK's will *look* like. And now I'm madly in love with it. I must have one. Or two. Or four.

Good thing I get five.

In any case!

I absolutely cannot wait. It's a bit of a shame I more than likely won't have my Wrath copies until late Thursday evening, instead of on Thursday at 00:01 AM like I was hoping to. I don't think I've ever been so pumped over the release of a game since Chrono Cross (at least I can expect Blizzard to prevent the disappointment I experienced with my long-awaited Chrono Trigger sequel. D:)

...goddamnit I'm itchy to play. I want my wrath! *Hissyfits*

Don't worry too much about not getting in right away. Most likely the servers will crash 2-27 times the first day.
I probably won't even pick um my copies until the weekend. :P

I think maybe i am the only one here that isn't in a hurry to get the xpac installed. I haven't even planned on purchasing it yet. I want to now focus on getting my level 60+ teams up to 70 which will be much easier since most of the high powered 70s will be in northrend. Should be a lot easier to quest now.

Nope, you aren't the only one. I still have 3 more levels to go (to 70) on 3 of my toons. :)

Going to heal my DK out of group until he hits Northrend, then will join my priest and lvl them together to 80. Eventually I plan to heal my lock from 70-80 as well but want to concentrate on my DK's factions, gear, instances, etc. Can't wait, in 12 hours I will be on my way to Gamestop haha!

Well, I've already paid 25 bucks to reserve 5 copies at Fry's, but I'm going to end up waiting till payday (Tuesday) to pick them up. Had a GIGANTIC cell phone bill to pay this week, so if I buy the expac before Tuesday, that's no beer money :(

Me, my gf, my 2 best buds, all got energy drinks up the anus, snacks, chips, foods, and our four computers set up in the room next door. (college so.. its a tiny room, nonetheless)

My best bud will be making his deathknight to serves as our MT. the rest of us are gonna pop on our mains to test it out do the first couple crashes, cry when the server crashes.

THEN>>> after the 30th crash, we log on our multiple accounts and HIT ... drum roll... YA WOO!! the crowd roars!..... The dark portal... FAIL.

Ive resolved that I will NOT be going to northrend until I get my entire team ready (meaning not just going on my 70 main)... thats incentive for me to get my ass in gear leveling and to figure out my macros lol.

We'll see if i cave.

To stop the synergy spin mode, you'll need to set up a hotkey to switch between each pc and then have that window locked. Also use relative mouse movements.

Thanks Ellay ('http://www.dual-boxing.com/forums/index.php?page=User&userID=3') that works. On the computer that is serving as my synergy server (mycomp) I set hot key mousebitton(4) to A switchToScreen(mycomp2) and mousebutton(Control+4) to A switchToScreen(mycomp).

When switching back to my main computer (mycomp) it's kinda weird. I have to unlock it and then hit control+4 then move the mouse over. It does not switch me back just by clicking my hotkey. Is that how it is suposed to work?

Hope that makes sense. :)

OMG I'm so excited it's like being a kid again at Christmas! I think for anyone that upgrades to WoTLK they should send a christmas present in the mail.

I'm excited, 25 quests waiting to be turned in! I just wish they had a download of wrath available. Looks like comunistcast is crapping on my torrent here at home :thumbdown:
