We have quite a few people who do this in our guild...we call them
simul-primes...
We have two people who play both a warrior and a cleric (one of whom
recently got a 3rd computer!!!!)
one who is leave of absense but will have a monk/cleric
and a host of others who have two computers and simul on and off
Those who are truly "simul" playing can enter lottos with both characters on
guild hunts (defined as 12 or more from PD) .. However, in the situation you
described the simuled chanter wouldn't have entered because he was really
just following you around for clarity or whatever, not to really play.
On another note, does anyone else have this damn flu going around? *cries*
