I played it for the entire summer and a bit of Fall last year. Man, that game is addictive. I had to stop. Its either LOTRO or try and get tenure. I chose the latter.

That's why I've never gone near it. It looks fascinating and beautiful and fun. It's not that I'm not interested, it's that I have a family to support.
“There, peeping among the cloud-wrack above a dark tor high up in the mountains, Sam saw a white star twinkle for a while. The beauty of it smote his heart, as he looked up out of the forsaken land, and hope returned to him. For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King

I would certainly be interested in reading about said adventures!

I'm always interested Tom. I don't play as much as I would like, but I have a Level 64 Champion that I'm trying to get through the Epic quests before I tackle the Isengard expansion.
I did not know that you were still playing, Alatar. Considering that no one had responded to the last three posts that I had made in the 'Move' thread I had my doubts. Between family, work, and performing (with undoubtedly lots of rehearsal) I figured you had precious little time to devote to a silly game.
Anyway, this thread has been hijacked enough. Back to Bombadil!
