Episode 22 - The UHMMMMM Episode

Hey all,

This episode is full of a lot of good information and, unfortunately, a lot of "uhmms". As I was listening to this episode before posting it, I realized that early on in the episode I had a bad case of the "uhmmms" as I would search for info or try and get my thoughts ordered. I can't promise that I'll stop the "uhmmms" in the future, but I will work to make sure there aren't as many.

In this episode I cover:

What I did in game
News about the My.Lotro Lotteries
Lotro.com Articles on the Pool of Creeping Death and a QA Dev Diary
Revisiting Volume 3, Book 1
Answering Brady's Question on Getting Started in Lotro

So here is a question for the listeners.....how would you like to see the rest of Volume 3 rolled out? Do you want to see one book at a time, 2-3 books at a time, or all off the remaining books at once?

Leave your answer in the show notes.

I hope you enjoy the episode.
