[Fear The Wrath]

Are there any dual-boxing/multiboxing podcasts out there? I suppose there isn't too much can be said about just multiboxing..?

I was thinking about starting one, it would probably be a WoW/MBing podcast with like:
blizz updates
tips
Q&A section
MB tips
lots of references to Dual-Boxing.com
cool updates from the site/pointing out cool ideas/accomplishments

any other ideas?

should i do this?
or do we want to keep multiboxing our little secret...? ha

To be honest, I doubt Multiboxing is the type of thing many people would ever bother downloading a podcast about.

Seems like a lot of effort for a minimal amount of coverage to me.

You know, the best way to keep this community small and elitest is to squash ideas before they are born. We have a knack for doing that, but it won't help.

Wee -- I think it's an awesome idea. Keep it focused on the things WE need...for instance:

blizz updates (okay, but really, focus on the ones multiboxers care about most)
tips (if this is general Warcraft tips, might want to leave it out)
Q+A (great idea, make a new post and start taking a FAQ that aren't answered already, or go over the current FAQ)
references to this forum (uhh, huh? don't really need this if the main way they find out about your podcast from here...)
updates (this is an AWESOME idea...give people props for what they accomplished, give out links of tinyurl URLs to their videos, advertise the good stuff we are doing)

Man I really think this is a decent idea. Don't let the haters get you down.

wilbur-- ive thought about that a little, but i think it still might be a good idea for those people who like to listen to something on their way to work and such. i dont know, but i enjoy listening to anything as long as someone is talking.. hahah

One of the things I'd be interested in seeing is some Multiboxer videos, with the authors describing their techniques. Maybe you can get some that sort of stuff in there.

Personally, all this "podcast" business has never really appealed to me and I for one wouldn't bother downloading and listening to one on multiboxing.

I prefer to read information (i.e. on these forums) or, as Wilbur said, watch videos. But if you feel it will be worth the time investment, by all means go for it!


On the subject of videos, I think it'd be quite interesting to make some sort of monthly-update for those curious about or interested in multiboxing:

e.g.
A collection of short (mainly action!) clips from the best videos released by people over the month, possibly with a short introduction to each player (class/spec setup, hardware setup, realm?). In effect a kind of multiboxing video ad. collection, summing up the communities accomplishments over the month and (hopefully) giving the viewer a taste for more - in which case they could go to the video section of this site and watch the complete video.

I think something like that might encourage more people to post videos, as well as appeal to those with short attention spans (such as myself) who would otherwise find a full instance run video hard to watch all the way through.


don't mean to hijack the thread or anything, just wanted to share my thoughts. Feel free to rip them to shreds/flame if you feel it necessary

I was thinking the same thing when watching some of the PVP videos. It would be cool to have the author talk about his techniques and stuff. Really get a better understanding about what you need to do and watch out for etc.
