Who Refers Who?

Getting ready to start my first 3 boxers and I've done a lot of searching and reading. One question I have not been able to find is when doing RAF is it better to have the main refer the 2 other accounts or main refer newaccount1 and then newaccount1 refer newaccount2.

My plan and Information:
- I have 3 paid accounts (oldaccount1, oldaccount2, oldaccount3)
- Creating 2 more for the 2 new toons (newaccount1, newaccount2).
- These will all be starting at level 1 together and once 60 transferred from newaccountX to oldaccount2&3; oldaccount1 being main.
- I will be purchasing battlechest for each new account.(running alliance shaman 3x at least that is the plan right now)
- creating 2 new email accounts and respective bnet accounts for the new toons. (same name on credit card info)

So wouldn't it make more sense for the main to refer both so the main gets 2 month free for referring 2 accounts? I saw on a post when researching that it should be main > R-new1 and new1 > R-new2. So I don't know if im missing something there or if my logic with having the main refer the others is best...??? I understand that I will be missing out on a free mount for one account by having the main refer both but mounts dont concern me.

you want to make sure new1 refers new2, any of the 3 old accounts is good to start the referal so if you have a good booster toon on one account, then refer with a different account so you can boost 3 lowbies.
Old1
Old2-booster
Old3>new1>new 2 this will get 3 toons with 3x RAF XP

Other than that you got it. 3 different battle.nets is a good plan, I have a business account on yahoo so I can add emails and read all on one, but Gmail works well also.

I would have a 4th "booster" account. So new1 and new2 will always be with old1.

you lost me. You have 3 accounts or 4? How many Battle.net's now? You want 2 new account to level up toons; so all with boosting, or do you want to level up 3 accounts total using a different account to boost?

Sorry about that.

I pay for 3 accounts right now(old1, old2 & old3). I'm going to purchase 2 battlechests and create 2 new "XP bonus" accounts. So at that time I will have 5 account, 3 old and 2 new. One of the old accounts will be tied to the 2 new ones and all 3 of those toons will always be running together. If I ever need additional help or "boosting" through an instance or something I can bring an 80 from one of my other old accounts to help my 3 boxers. So it looks like this:

Boxers:
old1 + new1 + new2 - 3man team always together for XP bonus.

Supporters:
old2 & old3 both have 80's on them, wife's account (old2) and kids (old3) which i can hijack whenever needed.

So for me I thought it would be best to have old1 refer both new1 & new2 so old1 gets 2 free months for referring 2 accounts. Once new1 & new2 reach 60 I am going to transfer them to old accounts. new1 to old2 and new2 to old3. I will cancel the new1 & new2 accounts and continue 3 3boxing past 60 with accounts old1, old2 & old3.

Then you it set just right. You won't lose a mount, as you can assign it to any toon on the account. All of my RAF mounts went to new toons last time but I chain linked so A + B + C + D got mounts. Either way works if they all level and never boost.
