Last week I did the encounter with no issues, twice because I had to leave on Thok. This week me multiboxing is wiping the entire 25 man raid due to a bug, caused by me multiboxing, and this makes no sense whatsoever.
Has anyone else experienced this, this week but not last?

... what kind of bug? Are your toons disconnecting?

I've talked to another gm since then that is going to forward all available information to the devs. 20-40 seconds into the fight, no one is dead, the raid is split 12/13 and then everyone dies and is teleported to the top. I did the fight last week twice with no problem on my side. Since the hotfix it has been 20-40 seconds in wipe, repeat. If I leave (playing with friends) and my friends stay, the fight stops bugging and everyone can kill it with me not there. This happened twice this week so I am pretty confident that it's multiboxing.

How spammy is your setup? are you sending the server a dozen keys per second per toon? Even so I would hope blizzards servers would be more robust than to have that result in anything other than an instant disconnect.
(an instant disconnect happens if you have your keyboard doing a repeater key without a break).

extremely spammy, I've been disconnected if I forget to turn off using all keys... but I don't see how it would relate. I did the fight last week without an issue. I don't know why me being there would cause the encounter to kill everyone in the raid... but that's what's happening :/

Spamming keys wouldn't cause something like that. What is unique about your connection to the server? The only thing I can come up with off the top of my head is that it's freaking out on some trigger where there is more than one character present from the same battlenet account.

Is this Blizzard's hotfix to remove boxing from PvE, just like they removed follow from battleground PvP... all while not saying, multiboxing is out?
I doubt it.

I don't understand how this is directly caused by multiboxing?

I boxed it without a wipe a moment ago, but with different b-net accounts. Don't know if they fixed it yet.

I can split the raid and do 5 on one side and 5 on another, but I cannot do 10 on one side. If I put 10 of my characters on one side it wipes the raid. I've done this with the following.
1 Prot Paladin, 2 Holy Paladins, 7 Ret Paladins
and
10 BM Hunters
I haven't a clue what causes it, at first I thought it would be melee stacking, but alas, 10 hunters... still wipes...
