Some Statistics

[Gladgilrian]

Out of curiosity, do you know the origin of it? It make me sad sometimes to think that something like 1/10 people that play this game have read not just the trilogy but his other works as well.

Sorry for the minor derail.

I've read almost all, but I read a lot trilogies/series so they all kind of meld together after awhile, but do telll...

I highly recommend the Foundation sagas by Asimov.

Oh wait.....was this the warg that bit the hand off of Beorn? The man that fell in love with Feanors ( I think) daughter? In The Silmarillion?

edit: Googled it, I have the story right, names are wrong. In the story of Beren and Luthien, my personal favorite in The Silmarillian. He bit off Berens hand after they retrieved one of the Silmarils and the hand still contained the Silmaril, which then proceded to burn and drive him mad, he was later hunted down and killed. Spelled with a C, not a K, but I'm sure turbine wouldn't let you use the correct spelling. Cudos HiC.

For the record I am Karcharoth, also known as Hereicome-Reaver, Healsforyou-Deflier, Magrathelion-Hunter. And no, it wasn't farming. My warg was the first creep that I made like 5 days after I got the game and I gave it a dumba$$ name. I was waiting on a rename credit when I started actually playing him. Once I renamed him it apparently assigned the amount of infamy I had obtained to a new name. That just must be how they do it.

And yes...sticky.

Doh! Sry hereicome! You have to admit though it looked kinda fishy

Yep that's the one.
He was bred with the specific purpose of killing Huan, who had killed all of Sauron's other werewolves. And no, they wouldn't let me start it with a 'C'.

No worries chief. I don't hold any animosity towards anyone who thought so, you're right it did seem suspicious.

AHAHAHAHA, that is great!! I haven't watched any of the Dragon Ball shows since DBZ finished.

OH no, now everyone will be disappointed. Conspiracies, exploits, and rumor mongering are much more fun.... and people get to make themselves look good doing it (such squeeky clean little Jedis they are).

Anyway congrats on the name change and good job dispelling rumors.

I love it when nobody bothers reading a thread lol. We had already solved this, figured out it was a name change from Freepfreak to Karcharoth, and I had already gone back and corrected the history to properly reflect that.

I had to research it. I had no idea although I have read the main story, Hobbit, and the Simarillion (quite some time ago). If my research is correct, Karcharoth is the warg the bit off the hand of Beren to try and take the Simaril. The stone was stuck in his throat and cause great discomfort and misery.

Oh please how could I have passed that up? Was I really supposed to write something cuddly there?

Here is my new and improved revised post:

Karch I'm glad you posted that to clear it all up. I want to sincerely thank those who realized the error and fixed the posts. You are all a class crowd that continually shows concern for the feelings of your fellow players. Freeps thank you for your fair and judicious play and creeps thank you for not being whiners.

Boooorrrrrriinnng.

I think it was Carcharoth, not sure...probably was flagged by the devs and that's why he uses a K.

You're right. Thanks for the spelling tip. Now I can look him up in the Simarillion. I love the interesting side stories in that book.

Here is what the index of names in the Silmarillion has to say:

Carcharoth - The great wolf of Angband that bit off the hand of Beren bearing the Silmaril; slain by Huan in Doriath. The name is translated in the text as 'the Red Maw'. Called also Anfauglir.

Neat stuff.

While the graph and other server specific info is nice, is there any way to make it show the whole list for the server's daily results like it did before (like it does for all servers, only not limited to 30)?

stickyplzzzzz

Can more people ask for sticky? It's getting nearly 4,000 views a day now, probably more.

[pirate07]

I sent a PM to Clover. Maybe she'll come have a look

[BIZL]

Yay sticky!

Yay Rath!

[ajfrye44]

Woohoo

Sticky!!!

[Gladgilrian]

finally........

[Erasmus354]

Man, I was confused, it said this was the most recent posted in thread .... but I couldn't find it anywhere. So now that this is stickied maybe I should use it for some good.

What do you guys want to see added to the site? I am thinking a kinship ranking page, and a kinship view page (like char ranking and char view). The kinship view page could show a breakdown of members and classes and such.

[zaskoda]

That's a good idea.

[zaskoda]

Hey look! I win! I hope I win a constructive hobby or something.

I'm not showing up under Elendilmir gain, can you check that out?

Pretty sure transfers don't show up.

[Arkarianor]

Pretty sure transfers don't show up.

They do show up. Also, if you transfer and don't show up on the leadeboards, you won't show up anywhere. Not on my.lotro, not in User CP for a signature, and not on leaderboards.

Only people who transferred during a certain period of time don't show up. Basically, you're screwed if you transferred then (right after Moria I believe). "Sucks to be you!" Turbine Employee says.

[zaskoda]

I still show up on mylotro.com and I'm pretty sure that's where this list parses its data from.
