My new Autumn Mount

The Hunstman Returns

Heart of the Show:  Top Gamer Moments
1  The first time getting to Meethil Harbor (WoW).  I'm not sure why this popped into my mind but it always seemed to mark the move from the early areas into the more experienced areas.
2  Watching my brother die in the cave-in encounter in Gnomergon (WoW)
3  Entering Moria for the first time
4  Wandering the shire while doing the pie and mail quests
5  My duel with Nature Lord when I was on a WoW pvp server
6  Playing a Twink in the lvl 20 BGs
7  Soloing through Garth Agarwen on my Lore Master
8  Playing any of the old D&D games like Pool of Radiance or the Ice Wind Dale trilogy
9  Finally being the top scorer in a HALO pvp battle (and then realizing how bad my competition must have been)
10  Finding the hidden lore nuggets in LOTRO (like the balrog cave painting in Moria, or the references to fallen Cardolain in the Great Barrows)

I hope you enjoy the show!
