World Of Warcraft Insane Player

What is insane? Or is it professional gamer/player? This guy that goes by the nick Prepared have 36 accounts on World of Warcraft perfectly legitimate and have the hardware to back it up. How insane is that?

It costs him $5711 in subscription costs per year for the 36 accounts on the 6 months pay schedule. A freaking $5711!!!!!!. And that is just for the subscription fees/costs alone.

This guy is sure dedicated and get a couple of guys like this, Blizzard must have been making a killing. Woot, way to go Blizzard for World of Warcraft. It's KACHING!!!! all the way to the bank, so to speak.

Directly quoted from the source:

A lot have asked me, why create so many? The main reason is to invade Stormwind and Ironforge when they reach top level. I'm sure the Alliance will put up a big fight when that happens. We'll see how it goes. If they don't make level 70 before Wrath of the Lich King, then it will be at level 80.

That is my main goal. That will probably happen after I've got some PvP gear from the battlegrounds. I'm also planning to do some 25 and 10 man raid instances but that is secondary to my PvP goal. Of course I'll be doing arenas too to build up PvP gear but I'm not expecting to do that great there because I'm way behind in gear right now. I need to get to level 70 first, then level 80 and by then I will probably have all green gear while most others have been doing the battlegrounds and arenas.


It costs me exactly $5711 in subscription costs per year with 36 accounts on the 6 month pay schedule. Not bad considering I'm looking at it like it's a hobby and there are more expensive hobbies out there than World of Warcraft. :)


32 of my shaman are level 61. One shaman that I had before I started the 32 is at level 70 along with 8 other level 70 classes that I had. My mage, priest and druid are in the center of the circle of shaman in the pictures but they are kind of hard to see. I've also got some mages and priests that I'm currently working on that are level 23. Once they are at level 31.9, I will stop working on them, get 16 of them to level 60 with the recruit-a-friend bonus levels and work on the shaman again.


When Wrath of the Lich King is released, I plan to be at the store when it opens and will purchase 36 copies of it. With tax, it should be about $1500 for all of them. Then the shaman are on their way to level 80 along with the priest, druid and mage.


By the way, I have 9 level 80 shaman created on the Murmur PvP realm in the Wrath of the Lich King beta. I mainly tried it out to see how well my computers would work as they are. With the exception of one my desktop computers, I should be fine with the hardware that I have.


I use 3 addons in the game. CT_MapMod is used to give me locations for quests, etc. ClassIcons is another addon that I use to show the class of the target. It helps for PvP encounters. Then the last addon I use is SSPVP2 which is excellent for displaying timers and other things while in the battlegrounds.


For my keys to send to all instances of WoW on my 11 computers, I use Octopus 1.3.2. Maximizer in Octopus allows me to start up all WoW instances at the same time or any individual instance such as if a WoW instance has crashed. It also allows me to shutdown all of the computers at the same time.

Now, let's have a look at the hardware shall we?

Lots of screens

My goodness, it's like a freaking command center room with all those gadgets. And here I am, thinking that my dual monitor setup is way cool. I am humbled. There is no freaking way that I will spend money like this guy even if I have the money.

Now, for the uninitiated, WOW or World Of Warcraft is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game(MMORPG) by Blizzard that set in the fantasy Warcraft universe. Lots of people are playing the game. LOTS. I sense Blizzard smilling their way to the bank. KACHING$$$!!!!!!.

There, that is what I call insane/professional player/gamer with the time and money to spend.

Rock on.
