So.... Who wants to sacrifice their social life at the altar of gaming?

Ok, it's not that bad....  but I've become addicted to Lord of the Rings online...  it's like WoW, but it's set in the LotR universe, the graphics are better, and it's not quite so grind-obsessed.  There are many other differences / improvements, and I'd be happy to talk about them with anyone who wants to know more...  Anyway, I've been playing it for quite a while now, and I'm simultaneously going to try and do two contradictory things.  I'm going to try and cut back my playing time to a more reasonable level (I've been playing it a lot lately), while I also try and recruit you (yes, you!) to join me in playing.  

So yeah, Who wants to play?  there's a free one-week trial that you can download online from http://trial.lotro.com, and I have a few "buddy keys" that I can give which give you a two week trial.  If you're interested, let me know, because if you use me as a referral, you can get the discounted pricing that I get because I played in the beta ($10 per month instead of $15).

I'm in. I was never very interested in WoW, but I used to be mildly obsessed with RTCW online. However, I envision the time difference being a bit problematic.

ok, finally got it figured out:

go to www.lotro.com/trial and download the client (don't bother with the high resolution download unless you have a humongously awesome video card).

Then, tell me what e-mail address you want the referral key sent to, and I'll have a guest key sent to you. That will give you 10 free days of play, after which you can choose to buy the full game ($30) and you'll get the $10/month founders price.
