One of the sanity checks I considered was that it takes 14 days (as
I recall from a research web site) to get a character to level
60. 14 x 24 = 336 hours. I was assuming that getting one hoard
character and once alliance character to 60 would lead a player
through most of the quests.
However, I forgot about the doubled zones.
So, a WoW quest might 24 minutes to complete instead of 12. How much
much time does the equivalent quest (in a text MUD) take to write?
