I was planning on making a spiffy Thrangis The Red map for the Haunted Burrow ( I probably still will… for fun and the sake of my dwarf honor), but I guess I shouldn’t be surprised to see A Casual Stroll To Mordor beat me to it by several days. :(
They did a great job covering all the quests though and I’ll be sure to try for one of those skeleton horses.
I’m still wrapping up my the LOTRO Harvestmath video, so at least I’ll have that! :D

Harvestmath is here! I have been having a blast with all the great trick or treat riddles, exploring the depths of the haunted burrow (which I’m still recording footage for the Halloween trailer xP), and gallivanting from Men to Elves to Shire-folk in my desperate attempt at claiming all the prizes. I should probably pace myself, there’s still many more days left for the seasonal event.
I think Turbine is doing things right by the players with their F2P switch. They could have easily left the game untouched and charged people for consumables and quest content without anybody really thinking twice about it. Thankfully, Turbine doesn’t function like that. They have decided to invest their increased earnings right back into the game, thus giving it right back to the players, to maximize the possible avenues of entertainment. It encourages me to play more and perhaps elicit others to try out the game (if they have yet to do so).
Side mention, I picked up Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 yesterday and have been jutsu’ing ninja booty in my free time. It’s faster paced then the first one, which makes for fun to watch fights. I haven’t had a chance to try the Online play, I’m hoping there won’t be lag problems. :)

Paid some respect towards some of those great bloggers on my blogroll. I know that I’m on theirs and I’m grateful for it! Us bloggers like to stick together in some sense comradery. So, below you’ll find an assortment of some of my favorite blogs, why I like them, and why you will to! Enjoy! :O
[side note: If they don't have a banner. I'm a gonna give 'em one. I'm lookin' at you WASD! ;x]
don't hate me! D:
- WASDstomp -
I frequently stop by to read up on his next gaming thought. He’s been sufferin’ from GRS as of late (send him your well wishes). Thankfully he is partially pre-occupied with League of Legends (LoL to some). If you enjoy reading/writing/using twitter, he’s got one of those too.
You should stop by every now and again to see what he has to say about whatever game he may be perusing. Perhaps it’s a game you’re familiar with, perhaps not!
- Bio Break -
First of all, pyschonauts banner… bring ourselves back to calm. Ok. Syp is like, your inner geek in flesh manifest (and proud of it!). He’s one of the columnists at massively.com and has a great deal of experience with the early MMO generation and their favorite MMO’s.
If you’re an older gamer, especially if it pertains to MMO’s, this is a great place to see how those older games are holding up!
Staying as true as he can to WAR (something I failed to do D:), zeWAR (as I shall refer to him) remains afloat upon the skuttled ship that is Warhammer Online. He updates regularly and keeps on track with whatever Mythic feels is worthy to be released to the community.
If you’re still playing WAR and haven’t heard about zeWAR, get a move on! You’re lagging behind you lout!
- Grimnir’s Grudge -
This was actually the first WAR blog I started reading and was the reason for me wanting to make my own blog. Thanks for the inspiration Grim! Anywhosie, another great WAR blog and dedicated WAR fan. If you think WAR is dumb… well… you’re dumb! He also has a twitter, so bug him there too.
You should go there! Like right now! It’s full of dwarven rage. D:<
