Another great installment! Looking forward to the rest; it's always good to see my favorite game be the source of a few jokes. And since everyone's giving their character info: Turnholm Twofoot, 65 Hobbit Minstrel, on Firefoot.

You obviously don't play LotRO. The leveling IS the game here. End-game stuff is fun, but not nearly as big a deal as other MMOs make it. And, that's just how I like it.

My dad was a tabletop gamer. (not anymore; interestingly, I didn't know this until I was like, 15. He had never said anything about it). Anyway, both my parents enjoyed Myst. That's about it though -- I was always the gamer, not them.

Turbine. Either world-design or Lore-monkey for LotRO.

"Baker" at a non-chain pizza shop. I took the pizzas out of the oven, cut them, and boxed them. Sometimes I answered the phone or did dishes. Once I even made the pizzas! Oh, so exciting. *rolls eyes* At the same time I got a job as a "sales associate" at Office Max. Let me recommend...

Drums, 5 years, primary instrument. Can't get enough of 'em. Trumpet, 6 years, stopped about a year ago but can still play when needed. Guitar (six-string/bass), 2 years, not very good at it yet but can hold my own on the bass. Piano, stopped lessons like 10 years ago but still know how to...

My roommate hasn't gone all Science! on it, but he's noted that he does seem to get healed a ton more in pick-up games than when it's just friends. He always plays Zoey when he has the choice.

Huh, take a few weeks break and it looks like you all had loads of fun while I was gone. I'm glad Necro was banned, he always grated on me the wrong way.

Yeah, make sure I get out first. I want to get away from this country. But, I'm stuck right in the middle of it (literally, the middle of nowhere), still working on a degree so I can make enough money to move somewhere else.

Since this thread is semi-back-from-the-dead, I'll just mention to any readers that Lord of the Rings Online has the drops thing figured out pretty decently. The standard issues still apply ("Why the hell doesn't this boar have a head? Why didn't that bear that just mauled me with a skill called...

For me personally....apart from the multiplayer fanbase (oh God, listening to the people my roommate played with over voice chat lowered my IQ, I think), it's the fact that it's not on PC. I can't play console shooters; using a thumbstick will NEVER beat a mouse and keyboard (hopefully I'm...

South Dakota: Famous for being damn flat. And having no trees. I hate South Dakota.

Possibly. I was shown it by a friend, and it was several years ago. My memory is a bit foggy.

I hate to be the only person against it, but I didn't like BG2. I never played the first BG, but I have lots of experience with NWN1 (the best RPG I've played so far). I sat down to play BG2, and just couldn't get into it. It was mostly the controls. They seemed rather counter intuitive for a...

GTA4's limits are definitely the ones that annoy me the most. So you called me up to have a date, and you're on the other side of the city? Great! What? I have 1 minute to find you, cut through traffic, and not run you over when I skid in? Screw that, I'm going to go shoot some people. I...
