Who's the 30 boxer? :)

[Naysayer]

Me and prepared are the top two boxers, number wise and competition is benificial and welcome by both I am sure.

To put it bluntly, my 5 year old sister could kill your whole raid in about 2 seconds. Level up, and/or shut up.


All talk and no action. Are you even level 5 yet?

Let us know when you are past trial account max level.


No offense, but I'm getting bored of all the talk.

This attention-whoring is vastly amusing, but it is getting old real fast though.

Sam / Prepared, do you guys have a Blog for this Lotsa-Wow project?

A blog is a good way to give information, without the whole i'm-better-than-thou stuff, and i'm sure a great number of people in this community would love checking on your ~regular updates.
I know i would.

just a thought.

[Prepared]

Well it seems I beat prepared at EQ: This is my guild/crew:

http://eqplayers.station.sony.com/gu...d=631360193720

He's ahead of me in WoW but I win EQ so ....

I use ONE keyboard, and ONE mouse. I never have to move my body at all, just my arms at the most to get FULL 100 percent control of any of my 26 guys in under 8 seconds. I think we can assume from your setup if someone just shouted random characters of yours to control you would not be able to get to them in under 8 seconds by any means. And I think its also clear you cannot play over 4 hours a day consistantly with that set up without nuermous achs and pains. I mean you have to turn your head to see the other monitors .... I just glance up and ot the right at the farthest, i can touch all my screens while facing the main one.

Of course you get their best spells cast all at the same time, whereas it would take me 3 seconds to do the same ...

If you offered to trade me your set up for mine I would take the opportunity to decline.

We do agree on something though if yur using a logitech trackball, well thats what I use also. The less mass you have to move the less strain on your body.

Rereading this post it does sound "harsh" but I mean how do you say things without making statements of facts sound umm "argumentitive" or "uncivil" or whatever. Me and prepared are the top two boxers, number wise and competition is benificial and welcome by both I am sure. Certianlly if one of us did not exist there would be little incentive for the other to box even more then 32 ...

If the Giants claimed to be a better football team then the Patriats because they won the superbowl would they be "uncivil". Prepared says Octopus is better then Keyclone is he being "uncivil" to Keyclone?

More assumptions. During game play, I use one keyboard and mouse, especially during PvP. And I would NEVER ask anyone to trade set ups. That's ridiculous.

Whatever winning EQ means to you Sam, that's fine with me. Whatever winning WoW means to you Sam, that's also fine with me. I'm here to play WoW right now and have fun in the game. Everyones a winner to what they believe are the criteria for winning is.

Zub, please don't put me in the same category as the 'i'm better-than-thou stuff'. I'm not making any statements here at any point in this message thread about that. People asked me to post my pics so I did. People asked me about my EQ characters so I posted the information about it. I didn't create this message thread to begin with. I'd rather keep this all low as too much exposure means a lot will create problems for me in the game which is where I don't want problems to be. I play WoW because I enjoy playing it. I didn't create 32 characters to be anything other than I had the cash to do it and I wanted to have fun with that many characters. I can afford to play even more but I figure 32 is a good number to do what I want to do which is progress on a PvP realm without some high level coming in and ganking me and camping my corpse over and over. Right now some of the 70's can and have done that but that won't be for long

[Prepared]

I personaly don't think Prepared changes machines all the time, he's probably using assist/follows macros like most everybody else on this forums, meaning he only has to control the ONE toon, on his main screen. The rest of the screens are probably just to accept quests and stuff, or for emergencies.
Plus, not playing in FPS view allows to see all your characters >.<


I wonder if Prepared will try some level 60 40-man raids when he reaches outland.

You're right, I don't change machines. I use focus on which toon I want to assist off. It's usually one of the leaders of each of the 8 groups that I have a macro to make the focus. Then I use the following:

#showtooltip

/follow focus

/assist focus

/startattack

/cast Flame Shock



All of that can be put into one key press which the game allows for a macro because it doesn't affect the global cooldown other than the cast at the end. That means all of the toons can face the right direction, assist the focus, attack the same target and cast all with one key press. Most macros I've seen people post on here have an assist button and a cast button which is not necessary in WoW, it can be done all in one keypress which is very important for PvP battles.

I am not planning to do any instances in WoW until I get to level 70. Right now, it's just grind to level 70 as much as I can, avoid the ganking and then get some PvP gear when I get to level 70 so I can raid Stormwind.

Sorry, didn't mean to offend.
I just thought blogs might be good solution for the community to see your improvements in the game, both Sam and you.
And the blogs being separate, it would automatically avoid any "i'm better than thou" sentiment that *could* arise like on these forums (the whole competition thing

I know i'm very interested to see how you guys will manage the inevitable hurdles that are coming your way (as in in-game hurdles/challenges etc, for example the mount money issue i mentioned in an earlier post or handling gankers, etc) as you two seem to have a very different approach, character and motivation. But if you prefer the low profile, it's cool as well

[edit]: Can't spell.

As stated: "He's ahead of me in WoW but I win EQ so ...."

My definition of Top-Boxers would be different. I would rather go for goals in the game. Like those guys who box heroics or raids or arenas, those are the top boxers in my opinion, as it takes alot of skill and patience.
Having bought 28 zilion copies of WOW/EQ/etc doesn't make anyone the Top-Boxer, it only makes them Top MMO spender.

I agree, like I say I think the best comparison is who takes down the strongest pve mob and Im not even in the running, yet. Just talking only about who has the most accounts right now and comparing me to prepared in eq and wow, I fully agree that in WoW Im zero at this time.

And those who say level up, less talk more action is right also.


I don't agree that Prepared is not in for competition and just for "fun" lol, given his prior "who has the most WoW boxes" post .... but as he says he didnt start the thread and is resonablly responding to request made of him.

Ill be throwing out all my pics and videos etc. on SamDeathWalker.com at some point in the future (not much to show at this point with some level 1 toons I am sure you will agree), and ALL will be revealed (like I said Ill have 1440x1080 acvhd videos of me actully playing-not in game video but from a camera behind me), of course there might be a minor 69 or 99 cent charge (one year membership) so that I can turn my calling into a profession, as I am sure you understand.

Well back to the grind of getting the macros set up.


I guess you should put follow and assist and cast in the same macro, good idea (although I use click instead of cast), will test it in a few mintues.



Remember early in the post when I said that it was interesting that he dosn't have a mellee, you can see from his set up why.

Also regardless of what many feel about the "better then thou" stuffs, this thread is unquestionably an interested read for everyone no matter how you slice it.

as in in-game hurdles/challenges etc, for example the mount money issue i mentioned in an earlier post or handling gankers, etc

Well my experience in EQ is that tradeskills is the way to go for money problems, after the 3 months of leveling is done Ill check out that route. Gankers is handeld by playing at 3 A.M. when no one is online at some out of way place, those whose calling is WoW/EQ can play whenever they wish.

First step is to milk RAF 3X exp to the max then consider then next step at that point.

Me and prepared are the top two boxers, number wise and competition is benificial and welcome by both I am sure.

No your not, the top boxers are the people who have managed to suceed in differnt aspects of the game : Aelli + many others in PvP for example. The top boxer is not who is running the most charecters, any fool with a job could make enough computers to power 50+ wows at once, and then setup 50+ trial accounts. Quantity means nothing to me, it seems to me that the only reason your spending all this money sam is so you can become 'the best solo wow player' and then claim all your 'epeen', hate to break it to you - but multiboxing is not solo, you are still 5+ or in your case 25+ wow charecters - just because you can kill for example hogger while multiboxing 5 does not mean you solo'd him

If these kind of posts are all your gonna make, then im just gonna stop reading them

EDIT: prepared, awesome setup - that airconditioner you have - how does it work? :P i need something like that
