15 Minutes of Fame is our look at World of Warcraft players of all shapes and sizes ¨C from the renowned to the relatively anonymous, the remarkable to the player next door. Tip us off to players you’d like to hear more about.

 

If you’ve ever wanted to quit your job, travel the world and play WoW whenever and wherever you please ¨C take it from Caesar of US Dark Iron-H, it’s as good as you’d ever dreamed it could be. In March 2007, Caesar sold his house, put the rest of his belongings in storage and hit the road. Since then, he’s managed to keep his WoW account alive and has played on and off from his laptop and internet cafes all over the Pacific and Asia. So far, he’s logged in from two dozen different countries on almost every sort of network issue you could imagine.

 

We caught up with Caesar in Kuala Lumpur to see if his travels are turning out to be as cool in practice as the idea was on the drawing board. (TLDR version: They are.)

 

15 Minutes of Fame: So where are you this week?

Caesar: I’m in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Last week I was in Bintan, Indonesia and Singapore. Next week, I’ll be in Penang, Malaysia and maybe in Thailand, depending on how fast I move. (Editor’s note: Moments before this article was scheduled to go live, Caesar e-mailed to say he had just in fact added Thailand to the list of places from which he’s logged into WoW.)
