36 Simultaneous Warcraft Sessions

When you can't convince 35 other people of your master plan to attack two Alliance capital cities, you really only have one alternative: Do it yourself. "Bradster" does. He owns that rig above — 11 computers that run 36 World of WarCraft account simultaneously. His infrastructure costs (to say nothing of his utility bill) weren't itemized, but he unashamedly admits he pays $5,711 per year in subscription fees to keep together his one-man raiding party (family photo of that on the jump).

Better yet? He's going to spend another $1,500 on 36 copies of Wrath of the Lich King so his army of level 80 Shamans can start pounding down Stormwind and Ironforge on day one.

Bradster is a WoW multiboxer. This isn't a lifestyle I'm all that familiar with, but there are forums and discussion boards devoted to helping players control multiple characters in WoW. It sounds like he has utilities that allow him to start up all of his copies simultaneously, and use his mouse to control eight of these monitors (which look like they have at at least 3 copies running) at once.

Oh and here's a comment beneath his post on a multiboxing forum:

"I'm horrified and greatly impressed at the same time. And I thought I took my hooby [sic] too seriously at $1680/year in subscription fees."

Psssht. $1,680? Night elf, please. So, now I really want to know what Bradster does for a living, a) so he can afford all this #### and b) so he can have the time to play it.

I bet this guy masturbates alot

He might not have time for that even.

When I was into MMORPG games I saw some guy pay $4000 for an account when I saw the character in the game I asked him how it felt to pay that much for a character.... Well he wasnt happy, since kids were making macros run characters up to his level and above in less time. LOL

I run 3 boxes and thought that was a bit much. But I actually only play one toon at a time.

But, different strokes for different folks.

I have Dual Logged for Anarchy Online and have 2 paid accounts and one Freebie ...

people dual log EVE Online as well .... sometimes you can be your own best wingman ... I could see doing this ... one toon trained for Mining and Industrial and one combat trained to watch his back ... mining is pretty much automatic once you get started ... the laser keep running till the rock is gone ...

I will NOT tell my sons about this. Absolutely NOT. It has taken all my strength to keep them from reliving the South Park episode.
