I'm used to people "spiking" a few titles at one to flood the chat in certain outposts, I did it myself with 4 titles leading up to GWAMM but I haven't seen anything like this before.

Saw this in Kamadan a while ago, just rediscovered it in my screenshot folder. It appears to be 9 characters owned by the same person (they all had the same surname with different forenames) earned GWAMM one after another, iirc there was around a 15 second delay between each one. I tried to PM them but the character changes were going too quickly.

The most masochistic abuse of time ever.

Yup, that's a spike all-right.
That is one dedicated player

A few thoughts

-Photoshopped?
-More than one person with -"Du Pont", a guild of friends?
-Olympic Level Geek, manifestation on the mortal plain of the god of virginity
-Are you this du pont?

Makes me wonder do they have a life other than GW?

Black Metal · Mar 26, 2011, 09:46 PM // 21:46

that's a different definition of a title spike than I'm used to, but hey it took some coordindation and either a lot of comps in a line or a lot of ppl going along for this

Have you read a thread by player who made a 8lvl ranger only to get an obby armor for her in 4 hours since it's creation?
She's been playing for 12 months 11 hours every day! (mathematically)

Those ppl have GW and nothing else.

-No
-Possibly, but then i'd've expected all the characters online at once and synced at exactly the same time rather then every 15 or so seconds.
-Possibly.
-No

Drools uncontrollably =Q
Lol anyways what I wouldnt do for one gwamm but that many jeez

mlandry · Mar 26, 2011, 10:06 PM // 22:06

I wonder if the spike would work for all your characters at once if you got your 30th title with an account wide title? Or would you still need to log on to each of them?

Draak Calinca · Mar 26, 2011, 10:14 PM // 22:14

I was in Kamadan when this happened, i believe there was 8 of them.

it was epicccc

R666 · Mar 26, 2011, 10:15 PM // 22:15

its either a server spas moment or a group of friends with same name end cause its just the same titles over and over. Or as someone else has said photoshoped image

Like I said, if it was a group surely they'd all have got the title at the exact same time, there was a delay which implies one guy changing characters to use an Elite Tome on each to me.

I have no way of proving it isn't shopped, I have the original, uncropped and uncensored screenshot but that's not really going to prove anything.

wow congrats to the person that did this (if he/she reads this thread), thats quite an achievement

Bristlebane · Mar 26, 2011, 10:23 PM // 22:23

Not a photoshop,
and you can see the names are slightly misaligned so it's a group of people (or characters)

Horace Slughorn · Mar 26, 2011, 10:31 PM // 22:31

would have been better if he got 29 on all chars then maxed an account-wide title

Skyy High · Mar 26, 2011, 10:40 PM // 22:40

Awesome. I hope this guy felt good after that.

Thrilla Killa · Mar 26, 2011, 10:59 PM // 22:59

That's 9 different people getting titles together, nothing special, just coordination.

Zanagi Kazuhiko · Mar 26, 2011, 10:59 PM // 22:59

wtf..............................

Hobbs · Mar 26, 2011, 11:42 PM // 23:42

Just tried adding all the names to my friends list. All the characters are on the same account.
