Each week we ask you to share your successes in Middle Earth with the rest of the community. Post a comment letting us know what you’ve accomplished this past week. We will pick comments at random to read on the podcast giving you a chance for a little shout out for yourself! Our shout-outs are only as good as the information we get so remember:
- Don’t forget to add your character name, what server you play on and, if you like, add your Kinship if you have one.
- Please keep your posts brief. We won’t be able to read full novels of your adventures. At least make it so we can easily sum it up!
- Do not be afraid to post any of your achievements. We don’t care if you just saved Archet or cleared out the Tower of Orthanc. We want to hear from you!
These shout outs will appear in Episode 125 of A Casual Stroll to Mordor Podcast. You are welcome to join us live at 9:30pm Eastern on Saturday! First time joining us live? See our post on how to join CSTM’s live broadcast.
Comments for this thread will be closed after recording as this is a weekly thing. If you missed this week’s cut off, don’t fret! A new thread just like this one will appear next Friday.

Suzhran got herself, finally, a 2nd Age level 75 lore master staff! Last night I scored 3!!! sigils while farming ore!

Merrydew, lvl 75 Hunter, had a blast with the Landroval Repertory Theater presentation this week for the first time!!! ((for those who don’t know that is an rp raiding group))
I have really missed good organized raiding since I left the old server and I usually work Thursday nights but Merry was able to go in last night and I am happy.

My mini lvl 64, Yoshiko, finally got herself a lvl 65 second age mace and book, thanks to the kind kinfolk of The Guild, in Riddermark. Now I only have to take her to 65…

This week my achievement, or rather Turbine’s, is I’ve finally been driven mad by the voice clip; “YOU SHALL BE WREATHED IN THE FLAME”
Seriously. It drives me crazy.
In other achievements, I completed my first wing of orthanc, a rather deadly affair, but we got it done!

Maibhen Broadbelt, level 49 Guardian of Landroval is just about ready to start her exploration of Moria! (It’s a first for me, too! Exciting). This week she also managed to become Kindred with those uppity Hobbits at the Mathom House.

Hallo CSTM!
Elethahil, 45 Champion of Landroval: Hit 45, and ran the quests to get his LI this week. The champion has certainly improved since the last time I ran that set of quests as there was little difficulty in dealing with the half-orcs, including the signature leader, even with them 5 levels higher than I am. Additionally, he ran into the Dums on Monday night as they were exploring Forochel. He waved hello and wished them well!
February 3, 2012 at 12:16 pm
Elildor, hunter of Evenstar on Vilya, ventured through the unknown depths of Moria past the 21st hall and out the eastern side, finally to gaze into the Mirrormere. There getting level 60, he is teaching the orcs to know and fear his new weapons: Narbrant, Bow of Flame, from 2nd age Numenor; and Glamrist, Foe-cleaver, a sword made in the 1st age in Gondolin.
February 3, 2012 at 1:11 pm
Clarrow, black arrow, aka the Dark Queen of Arkenstone, hit rank 9, at exactly 1 year!

My Kinship: Mercenaries of Dol Amroth. Character: Saredor, Lore-master lvl 65, Eldar Server..This week I become Trout Master. I had alot of competition between me and a few elves in Rivendell. A lot of fishing just for a title but I really enjoyed the outdoors even though it was indoors at my home on my pc
February 3, 2012 at 3:40 pm
Bryar (Brandywine) – I’ve gotten all seven of my playing alts to at least level 51 while finishing their LI starting quests. I’m really enjoying Moria with Kilimur (Lvl 53 Champion) because it’s the first time that my scholar can run around and find scholar caches everywhere instead of the one or two at ruins elsewhere in Eriador.
February 3, 2012 at 6:06 pm
This week I got my Captain Linhard of Brandywine to level 30!
February 3, 2012 at 6:37 pm
Tolkyyn, Guardian on Elendelmir was created 1/7/12 and is now level 56 and he made Kindred with the Elves of Rivendel this weekend anf finally finished Volume 1(with the help of Karime and Axol).
He’s learend that the 6-man Skirmishes at his level or higher give over 300 marks, so he likes them a lot now!.
He’s also working his way through Volume 2 and is in the 21st Hall in Moria enjoying all the slaying of evil creatures. He also found a use for all those bags of rusted Dwarven tools and got some pretty good weapons from the trader there. Now he’s looking forward to those Kahzad-Dum tablets.
He’s still looking for recruits for the Kinship he’s in, the Vanishing of the Ring, which specializes in members helping members.

Busy week for me. Bandoras Fortunefoot, Hobbit Burglar of the Lonely Mountain Band kinship on Landroval achieved level 45 as well as reaching Kindred with the Mathom Society, Men of Bree, Eglain and Elves of Rivendell, as well as Friend with Thorin’s Hall and Neutral with the Lossoth! Busy week! Couldn’t have done it without my wonderful kin mates and all their support!
Oh, and I’ve got a snazzy Outfit 1 now, my biggest achievement of them all!
Thanks again, Lonely Mountain Band!

Belandwen (Riddermark) my first avatar on my first ever MMO made level 75, and got her World Renowned title as well!! Very happy hunter, completed the epic storylines with my husband last night too. We are loving this game
February 4, 2012 at 2:37 pm
Beldyl (Windfola) my first toon and main, reached 73 this week. I can actually see lvl 75 from here if I stare really hard into the future! Belloch, my mini also on Windfola, hit 35. Belwynne, my LM in the SoN kin on Landroval, hit 38.
Thanks for giving us an “intra-server kin”, CSTM!

Two first-ever experiences last week: 1) Traversed Moria and exited the First Hall to behold the stars in Mirromere, 2) then marched forthwith to the gates of Lorien and got shot to bits by the Galadhrim ./fistpump
On a craftier note, dinged level 55 and FINALLY got to use my blue, critted multi-Tools of the Armourer. Where have these been my whole life? Suppose I’ll hafta make good with those rather queer, trigger-happy elves and convince them to let me craft some of their armor. I hear its rather fetching. We’ll see.
Thankee fer all ye do!

My acheivement of the week, other then prematurely hitting submit comment btton on the previous post, was to begin traversing the wilds of Dunland. Also, im at 67 3/4, so 68 should be coming very soon (a premature achievement, I know, but I’m going for it!). I also was absolutely entertained this week with the most ridiculous argument I’ve seen on GLFF in at least 2 days. It was highly entertaining (thanks Nahara for tipping me off to it!). Happy hunting all!

After trying endlessly to finish Draigoch (AND get a worn symbol) my Champion, Thinhith, finally was able to accomplish the dasterdly deed. Not only did I get the title, Thinhith the Red, but I was lucky enough to get a second worn symbol. Both are being used for Isilwren’s new bow and Thinhith’s new dagger.
Many thanks to our raid leader, Nuadda, who had the patience of a saint.
