Thread: Spring/Summer Blogmoot!

Greetings fellow bloggers! I apologize for being scarce lately, but I cannot let RL complications get in the way of this event any longer. I must have my moot fix! I'd like to propose the following: Saturday July 2, 4pm EST. This time I shall be hosting the event at my home on the Nimrodel server, 7 Haven Way, Iavasant, in Falathlorn.

For those of you looking at this post and thinking "What in Middle-earth is she talking about?" Blogmoot is an in-game gathering of bloggers from MyLOTRO and other sites, who enjoy writing about the world of LOTRO and wish to meet others who share that passion. We discuss our blogs, share ideas about writing, and think of ways to promote and support our community of creative souls. And there is pie. All bloggers are welcome, new and old.

Yours in service,
Tuiliel

Hi-de-ho! The Name's Locney! I'm just starting in the blogging world, but I've been waiting for this for a while! Hope ta see ya soon!

I can come in either afternoon or evening! Can't wait!!

I'll try my best to make it, as of now there isn't anything on the calendar for June 26th so unless something unanticipated happens I should be able to attend - I am shamed to say I haven't blogged a thing since the last blogmoot we had so I need to get back into the swing of writing again.

I will give a tentative "yes", right now not sure what my work schedule will be...but in any event I can likely make the evening and possibly the afternoon.

Looking forward to it!

I completely agree with the above post! Well said dear!

Oh dear...I'll be at a teaching conference that weekend, so I can't say for sure I would have internet access June 26. If I do, it's more likely I would be free of meetings in the evening than the afternoon, but the odds are I can't be there that day. June is so busy!

Ack--can we really have a Blogmoot without Linett? That just doesn't feel right to me!

I would hate to miss it! I had to miss the one last Summer too. Those weekends fill up so quickly...If it's possible to schedule another day, the following weekend (July 2-3) looks good. Or July 16-17. Those appear to be my only unscheduled weekends this summer...how did that happen?

Any rescheduling that needs to be done, by all means don't be shy. With enough forewarning I can schedule a day off work, so that's not an issue.

Aiya Bloggers!
I'm glad this is happening! I can make the 26th as well as any of Linnet's proposed dates. I would not want to do it without her either!

Sounds fun! But unfortunately I won't be able to go... traveling for the summer, etc. It'd be somewhere around 3 AM for me :/

Have fun for me though!

I will defiantly do my best to be there. If any rescheduling is needed, go ahead!

I mean, I will definitely try to be there. Made a level 10 Fronagon that looks just like my 65.

We simply must have Linett join us, so how about July 2, 4pm est? I'm completely flexible on time, just wanted to pick something that might work for the broadest timezone range. I could also possibly do July 16 if too many folks are off celebrating 4th of July weekend, but that's a little trickier for me.

Thoughts?

July 2 looks good to me! 4pm should be fine too. One of my newly graduated seniors has her open house at noon that day, so I would just ask not to start the blogmoot earlier than 2pm eastern, but 4 or later is wonderful. :-)

Can't wait to see everyone there!

I have no idea what my work schedule will be that day, but I'll give a tentative "yes" and hope for the best. I still need to create a character so I can attend!

I have updated the original post with the new proposed day and time to avoid any confusion. We shall try for July 2 at 4pm est. I hope to see many of you there!

I should be able to make it. My daughter has an Irish dance performance that evening, so much depends on what time she has to be there. Luckily, we're in the pacific time zone, so 4pm eastern gives me some good leeway.

I'll mark the date and time down... I think I have to create an alt on that server, but I plan on attending

I'm glad to hear that the Spring/Summer Blogmoot on Nimrodel will still be taking place. I tentatively plan to attend and will represent with Nimrodel alt Sedileth.

I would like to announce that I will be able to attend on my Nimrodel version of Peneladan! Hopefully my laptop and internet are still working that day....

I hope to make it (at least part of time as I am on European time).

Blogging as Seolferwulf and, new to the blog, Geoffroi.

/rolls up sleeves and goes to create a character on Nimrodel

Edit: Can't believe someone has already taken the name Seolferwulf on Nimrodel - not exactly a common name!

I wasn't sure, but now I hope to be able to attend and will now need to make a character on your server, not that they will resemble either of my present ones, sounds like a good excuse to try out a new character.

Is it really less than a week to Blogmoot? *gasp* So exciting!

Only one more day until the Moot! I can't wait to see all of you.

will be there! thanks for organizing this!

I may be just a bit late, but Aldekim of Nimrodel is now ready to go and will be there. (woo hoo my first blogmoot!)

Finally able to offer an RSVP of sorts...

Tomorrow I am working until 3:30 EST. Between grocery shopping, getting home, and getting settled in I will be rather late. Possibly too late (depends on how fast I can escape town on a holiday weekend and get things done here), but a level 7 Elven hunter named Tanithisil is parked in front of Tuiliel's house, and tentatively plans to be there.

Don't hold things up on my account, if I miss it I'm sure there will be several excellent writeups. And isn't that what this is all about?

Oh Tanith, this is a Moot! You know it takes 2 hours for us just to get through the introductions

We'll be so excited to have you join us!

I know this is short notice, but something came up. Hopefully I can still make it!

Thank you for being a wonderful hostess for the moot! It was great to see new faces there as well as current bloggers. I hope we can have a place for all bloggers to meet! On a side note, I hope things get better for Marguerita. She has a wonderful blog and will be missed.

(Sorry for the derailment).

Would also like to thank our hostess for a very good evening, thank you.
The moot was very interesting and I look forward to any reports on the gathering and/or any news following on from what was discussed.

Thanks are indeed in order! A lovely house, excellent company, and some enchanting music to finish off the night!

With a couple of apologies (I am unlikely to present a proper report on the event and I have a continuing problem with directly posting screenshots on the forums), I present you a link to the links to my screenshots taken during the event.

I had a great time, I'm just sorry I didn't get there sooner to see you all...most of you had departed by the time I got online. However, even during that short time we managed to touch on a few important subjects; I'll provide a write-up as soon as possible.

Thanks to our host and to you all, a pleasure to meet you. I do like a captive audience for my poor musical skills

I have added as many links as I can remember to my blog (http://keli.wordpress.com); if I've missed anyone, please let me know.

Thanks for the enjoyable evening all! I have forgotten to write down all your blogs, so please pm me so I can add a link to my website!
