Week In Gaming

Cyndars

  • Got into LOTRO for my double bonus points! Storage bags, here I come!
  • Continued second Going Medieval world in standard mode. 
  • Started a new Going Medieval world in peaceful mode because my settlers kept dying in raids.

Pineleaf

  • My captain joined Friday Night Fights, where we ran several skirmishes and Woe of the Willow. After the latter, I concluded that I really need to make a Blue Line for this captain, as those boss fights are tough without a healer. Also. I managed to finish up the rewards season and finished Wood troll deed.
  • My Angmar warden ran the Black Grave.
  • In Minecraft, I tested out running through a Trial Chamber with some bundles in my inventor.
  • I returned to Dinkum hoping to reach winter soon so that I can try out the new wintry content.

Hello there, Lotro players! 

It’s been a while, so I wanted to send an email to let y’all know that I’m enjoying the podcast just as I have been. 

I don’t really have much in the way of questions or comments, but I do have a bit of a brag: I gained Skirmisher of Middle-earth for the first time on one of my characters, and did it responsibly, too. I think Pineleaf might be pleased to hear that!

Happy impending halloween!

ravi (the eater).

Week In Gaming

Crister

  • Work (RL Sauron) reared its ugly head this week and I was in battle all week long, but slayed my enemies on friday!
  • No man’s sky updates are awesome.
  • More time next week! Casino players must check out levelupcasino!

Cyndars

  • Dinkum! DINKUM! Dinkum! Island Reef adventure #1 with Sans set off what can only be described as industrialization in year 2 on her island to fund more trips. 
  • Island Reef adventure #2 with Pineleaf resulted in a near death experience. AND we might have slightly appalled and shocked him when Sans and I proceeded to raze the Island to the ground with our chainsaws. 😬
  • I only have four people left to bring to my island, and I’ve almost caught all the critters, bugs, and fish. I just need a couple more in each category, but spring is coming. 

Pineleaf

  • My warden went about Eriador looking for birds
  • I relearned how to play the Lore-master (at least at level 75 – now to learn 150)
  • In Minecraft, I conquered a second trial chamber
