    Sorry it is 730 pm cst. Hope you can make, but if not we'll be hosting some future events at different times, so perhaps one of those.

    Re: Sparring Tournament

    Unfortunately ...

    When time is 7:30 PM in CST it is 2:30 AM in CET

    Time in CST is less than the time in CET by 7 hours
    ... and that's just a few hours before I have to get up and go to work. Sorry, but I won't be able to participate.



    But wishing all contestants a great fun tournament and may the best one win

    Re: Sparring Tournament

    sorry we'll miss you. We do have members in the Euro time zones, so we will be trying to set up some events that will hopefully will be more compatible for you.

    In the meantime, dream of mayhem and mobs.

    Many thanks to the friends old and new who joined us to mix it up a little for fun.

    And congrats to overall winner, Swiftjavelin, who had over 10 sparring victories for the evening. Well done, all!

    Re: Sparring Tournament

    I'll come watch but I don't think my low-level minstrel would fare all that well due to:

    A. Minstrel
    B. Minstrel
    C. Minstrel
    D. Minstrel
    E. Healing traited =)
    F. Low-level Minstrel

    Need I say more .

    I am actually not subscribed atm but thinking about pulling the trigger and buying Isengard or a VIP subscription (if VIP subscription lets you access Isengard) and was a bit curious how the demand/need for reasonably experienced minstrels is on Gladden atm? I quit last summer just b/c I was finding it semi-hard to find parties and was multi-boxing with another mmorpg that has a LFG system for finding parties real fast. I do know about glff before anyone asks

    Re: Sparring Tournament

    Well, we completed this event, but they are a lot of fun for all-spontaneous mayhem breaking out all around is the way I usually describe it. Keep an eye out for our next event, and we'll be happy to have you there as either participant or spectator.

    As to your questions, Isengard is an expansion, so everyone has to buy it, even VIP. You might consider getting the expansion package that includes all the expansions, and some useful quest packs. isengard.lotro.com to see if your wallet will stretch that far.

    Frankly, I'm expecting to let my subscription lapse. The things that are unlocked mean doing a brief vip subs makes sense, but the value of my VIP status is getting minimized when they keep charging for every darn improvement in the game like the barter wallet.


    Ahem. Sorry, guess I needed a little rant this morning.

    As for minstrels, yes, they are very much in demand at pretty much every level. I had to ignore several requests for healing help because I was already engaged in something or about to be.

    Welcome back, and hopefully we'll see you around in Middle Earth.
