Multiple accounts

Post by KnitePrince »

I have created an account for my wife, and am also dragging my Son in to Excelsior when he is not off with the Army. I will also have my father and nephew join.. my question is, how do we all play at the same time? we will Usually NOT be playing from the same IP.. but... and here is where it will get confusing... there will be times, when at least 4 of us will be playing from my house, OR my wifes house. there will be two playing from my fathers house... sometimes in the Florida Keys, and sometimes from his house here in the midwest... how do we set all of these ip's up for multiple accounts? Can we set them up that way?

if you are going to have more than 2 accounts, i think you would be best served by sending Colibri an email at [email protected] and give him all the information you have about the accts needed... such as.. the name and password for each account sign in.. but be aware that multiple accts are watched closely to make sure that it is not being abused by one person

Hi, well in such situation, might be good to send me an email or even better yet, contact any staffer so that we have that common knowledge about you. We don't determine dualclienting whether we just see 2 clients from the same IP. Like Neptune said, we frequently take a look at these accounts and if it looks fishy we take a closer look. But if each plays their own account you have nothing to worry about.

I told him (My son) to go ahead and connect, but he still cant.. i am assuming it is because his mother has an account ont he same IP?
