The agreements basically state that everyone will play by the rules- -and allow the delicate balances of make- believe worlds to survive. But none of it is legally binding anywhere in the world.

Although no one knows for sure how many gold farmers there are, Thurman guesses as many as a million worldwide. Their shadowy world has become big enough to have its own published manifesto: Gary Mc.

Playing Dirty Ooohhh

Thurman has been part of it from the start. You might even say he helped establish it. A software specialist with a bachelor's degree in business information systems and a master's in computer science, both from the University of Phoenix, he spent three years applying himself to milking Ultima Online , then one of the most popular multiplayer games, for all he could.

At his peak, he had a fleet of 3. Subverting video games isn't new. Geeks have been figuring out how to exploit game technology to their advantage for decades, giving themselves extra ”lives” in Pac- Man or switching into invincible ”God mode” in Doom . When massively multiplayer games such as Ultima Online , from Electronic Arts of Redwood City, Calif., and Ever. Quest came onto the scene during the last decade, the emergence of virtual economies raised the stakes. You weren't just competing for ego anymore; you were gaming for dollars. Other factors helped attract hackers.

For example, economies of scale. Online games are not just for nerds. The action is mainstream. Hordes of engineers, accountants, lawyers, and other wannabe knights and knaves do battle in Ever. Quest (dubbed ”Ever.

Crack” for its addictiveness), World of Warcraft , and other games. Schoolchildren, college students, and Gen. Xers are playing such online games as Halo 3 on the Xbox 3. Madden NFL 2. 00. Playstation 3. Many graying gamers take to casual online games, such as bridge and chess.

It doesn't take much more than a computer and an IP address to access your passion. Thurman started playing Ultima Online as an undergraduate in 1. He couldn't help but wonder if, through a few hacks, there was a way to make his game- playing experience better.

After surfing around, he came upon software such as UOAssist and Easy. UO. When run in conjunction with a game, those programs gave players advanced macros, which are keyboard shortcuts to speed up mundane tasks such as healing yourself after battle. He realized he was on to something. Thurman left Phoenix in 1.

Dallas, and began working full time as a support engineer for a large software company, which he also prefers not to name. He continued thinking about hacking Ultima Online , and he became aware of the growing real- world market for virtual gold. The problem was that he couldn't amass it fast enough to make a decent buck.

But, he thought, if he could create an auto- playing robot, something that could basically play the game for him- -then maybe he could cash in. Drawing on his programming knowledge and with the help of DIY hacker sources online, such as Fravia. Thurman got to work. He started by shelling out $8. IDA Pro from Data. Rescue of Li. IDA Pro lets users see the structure of a program's logic. Point it at a program, and it creates a flowchart of how the software works.

Thurman directed the tool to the ”client” software he'd downloaded to his PC to let him to play Ultima Online . Not only did it let Thurman see the basic functions of the client software, it also let him see the specific memory addresses where the software stored key variables such as the player's location in the game world, an inventory of the player's possessions, and the status of the player's health. That information led Thurman to write a chunk of C++ code that he inserted into the client software to allow it to communicate with Microsoft.

Net, a development environment for Windows computers. In effect, the C++ code functioned as a kind of outlet to the servers running the game.

With that done, he needed, essentially, to write a plug to stick into the outlet. He wrote that plug in Visual Basic. Once complete and installed in his machine, it could exchange information with the Ultima Online client in his computer and, through that client software, the Ultima Online servers at the Redwood City headquarters of Electronic Arts.

In other words, he got access to the brains running the game. Next, Thurman set up his bank of computers . He chose the cheapest off- the- shelf PCs available that had enough power to run Ultima Online , and he bought 3. Each was equipped with an Intel Pentium 4 or a Celeron processor, a gigabyte of RAM, and a 2. He connected the bank of PCs to three monitors and a network of six cable modems, four routers, and a Toshiba tablet PC that he used to manage the whole operation.

Then he got down to business. The plan was that each of the 3.

PCs would play the game individually, creating a character and then using that character to perform tasks that would earn gold. Thurman wrote software to randomly generate details about the characters- -names, classes (fisherman, say, or fighter), and skills (such as magic or cooking), saving him the trouble of creating each character manually. He cloaked his identity by purchasing anonymous gift cards to set up accounts rather than paying for them with a personal credit card (the gift cards are no longer being sold). Once his computers logged into a game, communication between them and the game server was fairly straightforward.

For every action happening in the game that involved one of Thurman's 3. The details included the skills of a character, the status of its health, and the size of its bank account.

Thurman eliminated the human element- -cut out the middleman, you might say- -by programming his computers to automatically respond to the incoming data from the game server. The application performed the functions that a normal player would have to do with many repetitive keystrokes ( Ultima Online players use keyboards, not joysticks).

One thing the program couldn't do was sniff out moneymaking opportunities, so Thurman did that himself. But once he identified an opportunity, he would quickly write code that told his characters what to do to capitalize. For example, in Ultima Online , gamers can make money by cooking and selling chickens to tavern keepers. Thurman programmed his characters to buy raw birds from the butcher and then prepare the food. Ordinarily, a gamer can cook only one bird at a time, but Thurman automated the process so that his 3. PCs could cook as many as 5.

Pay any price. The advice was both the highest and lowest rated column in the magazine's history, creating division among its readership.

John pulls no punches, using everything from new technologies and old conman tricks to give you all the tools you need to get your players to care. If you're unfamiliar with the Play Dirty philosophy, let me sum it up in one sentence: You should stop at nothing to make sure your players are having fun. I advocated cheating. Taking away character sheets.

Conspiring with players to act against other players. In short, taking the old advice of . The idea is simple: in my games, player characters cannot die unless their death is meaningful. It's just that simple. Conan doesn't get killed by a stray slingshot bolt from a kobold. That's the very definition of absurd. So, generally, I say characters can't die without their players' consent.

But if I invoke . So, when she showed up, I walked behind her with a . Everyone knew that if they messed with Jessica's character, there was a chance their own character would die without permission. Jessica told me she had no intention of killing anyone at the game, but the other players didn't know that. Adding the threat added a unique tension to the game. The threat was all she needed.
