    I completed my last two horse-quests on my main for the Horsing Around deed. Then I cycled through my alts to make guild patterns.

    Danathan
    Denathorn and Erutheone

    It was good to see them. We did some fighting, then some crafting and sharing of items made, and resources. I was saving Montania for tomorrow night she is my Elf Guardian and quite a tough girl! She deserves time only for her, as she puts up a good battle!! The Witcher 2 is a good game but I missed LOTRO, good to be back in Middle Earth!

    I attended a kinship wake for our good friend Girn who passed away recently. We had a fabulous bash with Merci providing the entertainment with his 11-piece band!

    I played some Path of Exile and left LotRo to all the junkies for the night (I live in Europe so the servers came back online at around 6 p.m.). Logged in this morning and did the Hytbold daylies and two resource instances. Now I’m bored again. And no, I do not have one Character that ist through with Hytbold yet. But I’m sick of the grind.

    Emptied my mailbox of all the auction items that were returned to me because the auctions timed out during maintenance.

    I probably should have realized that they were going to have much shortened exposure to shoppers because of maintenance but I haven’t been a really big player in the LOTRO Commodities markets until recently. lol

    All I did was get on Meiledora the Elf Guardian, went back to work harvesting Skarn ore and smelt them into ingots; and, I made more Metalsmith crests.

    Ran some 2-player, tier 1 skirmishes solo on my hunter. They’re just the right balance of challenge and decent rewards that I can handle on my favorite (hunter) class. Put some nice techno/trance music on in the background–Armin van Buuren’s States of Trance are my current favorites.

    I checked the LOTRO store for the new discounts. (Without success) Then logged out as I need new quests before I can continue playing.
