They mostly are cashew nuts. Normally i create the screenshots that are used for the panels myself, but that large a gathering outside bree is hard to get. This shot was (provided by “fb search option is horrible”” from the Evernight facebook group reaching 1k people. A group photo and some games were part of the happening. Estimated to have around 150 people there.
Aragorn’s claim to the throne is very simple. If the oath breakers accept it, then it’s legit, after all they knew Isidur. Andang & Co, Pvmp video was great! Chat demands more! A pity I was out of town this past weekend.
The only thing I can think of Is playing LOTRO on a graphics tablet.
In theory, LOTRO could be put onto a touch device if done decent enough.
LOL, The pick of the week truly brings honor to my memory. Well done!
