just starting out

[WaffleFrie]

so i've created 4 chars for LOTRO(will eventually make 6...just ran out of email addresses :P) and spent the 6 hours downloading the game.

i'm slightly new to multiboxing in that i've never played a game that would actually let me box without a large amount of work(see my "boxing on the cheap" thread for all the games i planned on and mostly have tested for box-ability)

so my questions for you guys:
should i install it and run it off one instance or should each char i plan to play have it's own folder, like most people do with WoW?

^that was a simple answer....i can't run the install again :P

i'm going to be running it with octopus,
i've got my 3 instances setup
first one loads without a hitch
try to run the second one and it errors at "examine game data"

i tried renaming the turbine folder but it will not let me....so i can't even trick the installer to install another copy.

ideas?
