Feedback

Reviews

This week we received a 5 star review from Braag:

“You asked for it you got it. Lotro Players has quickly become the defacto site for the latest and greatest happening around the game. The hosts have a wealth of experience with refreshingly different perspectives, combined with a shared love of the game and desire to build an even stronger community. Their interplay gets better each week as they develop their chemistry. All this plus the ‘dulcet tones’ of Pine Leaf, “The Velvet Warden” !

Best Regards, Braag of Vilya”

“Wow Pineleaf! You sound just like me reading “Fox in Socks” to my kids! I think when Dr. Seuss wrote the original, and when Tsu wrote the update, they could just imagine the close calls that can ensue when one says “Fox in Socks, and Socks on…” or “Worked forking pork” too quickly.

It’s a shame I can’t get the chat window to work with my android device, then it would be easier for me to play and listen/chat at the same time

Hope to see you guys for adventures at some point – need to work my new alt up to lvl 30+ and 5pm on a Saturday is definitely depending on MrsEir and the MiniEirs. They have a habit of blowing the summoning horn at inopportune times (e.g., when healing a raid).

Keep up the excellent work!

Anthony also left a comment on episode 33 of LOTRO Players News:

“A limerick for Pineleaf

There once was a hobbit from South Farthing

Whose belly was so large it was alarming

Wargs ran in fear

And so did the deer

When his belly started a rumbling

Great job guys”

  1. Great word: Gobbledygook! 🙂

    Another great show, the chemistry really is starting to be refleshingly refreshing!

    Loot is great too! (rather than lute…! tut tut Mr. Velvet Warden… SEE BELOW)
    There are always lots of criticism for lootboxes but I always enjoy opening them…you just never know!

    And finally:

    LOTRO players News
    In da Headlights…Pineleaf froze
    His highlights glimmering , his body quivering
    “The highlights!” he screamed.
    “My high lights!” he moaned…
    As the car raced forwards…
    Spotlighted and centre-stage,
    Pine leaf produced a lute and started to play.
    Andang, Brax, Ethelros and Draculetta all pressed down hard on the accelerator…
    “Ha loot indeed, everyone loves loot!” sang Pineleaf.
    Lute played properly, highlighted in the headlights, Pineleaf bows…
    The car passes magically through pine leaves…
    A cloud of loot floating in the air…
    The car flies off down the internet highway.
