This week we talk about the videos Turbine released this week, LOTRO no longer on Gaikai, store sales and more!
Goldenstar’s Dum group went into Dark Delving this week and reports some difficulty with the second boss but did get him! Her old captain back on Gladden won a steed of night. While without internet service after a big storm, Goldenstar has been playing Skyrim.
Merric this week leveled up his captain and has gotten him to level 52 and is in the Deep Descent. He is liking the Moria revamp that he’s experienced.

Greetings!
There are 3 interesting things happening at Windy Acres Ranch this month. Here is the relevant information, in case you find it of interest.
First, the Fellowship Run horse race and show takes place on Wednesday, July 11th at 9:30pm server time (EST). This is part of the Summer Fun event series. The prizes are quite impressive.

Second, we are sponsoring an equestrian poetry contest in the month of July. The prize is a code for 750 Turbine Points. An amazing poem has already been entered in the contest and I think you’d enjoy reading it.

Finally, Windy Acres Ranch has started a formation riding team. We have made modifications to the traditional sport of quadrille dressage so that we can enjoy it in LOTRO. Everyone with a horse is welcome to join.

July 9, 2012 at 9:34 am
Crap. I just was named the thieves guild leader yesterday. No way I’m starting again. Bleh.
July 11, 2012 at 7:11 am
Hopefully it wont happen as you are on the Xbox version and i’m PC. PLUS this was around December shortly after release so i guess u should be fine now
July 9, 2012 at 3:09 pm
hey Merric does does you phone carrier charge extra for pc tethering? if not u can use that for internet if your home service drops again.
July 9, 2012 at 4:09 pm
It does and it’s limited which is poopie and includes any time spent on the phone while tethering is one (which we learned the hard way).
