I'm very late.
Anyways. In the early cast, there was segment call derp of the week.
Well I have a derp. More like Derp of my gaming life.
I spent 12hours in the starting zone in Lotro.
Man ,I skip the quest giver from the very start.
Thorin's Gate is the starting area. After 40mins of looking around. I want to see the rest of the world. But that damn gate was close.
So I thought it was level lock. So I just start to farm mobs. By the 12th hour into this grind session. The quest mob, I was farming grey out.
I ran back to gate but it was still lock.
I just rage quit after that. The the next day, I log back in but delete the toon and start fresh.
This time I hit the randomized on the name and pick a different race.
-Fambalas
-hunter
-I think from lothlorien .
So yea, this time I didn't rush though it.
Then I saw the Ring on top of the quest giver. Then start my long journey.
Samething happen to me when I start my first game ' Banjo and Kazooie n64'.
I skip the mole that start the quest chain. And just explore the map.
Good times.

I don't know anything about crowd fund.
I have no bombs.
P.S.
I would love a diploma at the Mike Byrne Institute.
