That is, I can do my 'usual' quests (e.g., the Old Forest quests from last week) while still keeping up with Bingo and his adventures. For the same reason, I also like how it tells me what level next week's quest will be, so I can be sure to have my character at approximately the appropriate level. This really allows Bingo to be an 'added-value' experience rather than feeling something that is taking me away from other activities.
There was a hobbit who traveled a lot
And Bingo was his name-o.
B-I-N-G-O

Hey, MOL will there continue to be new barter items for the Bingo quests? (housing items and such) Can you hint at or otherwise preview what some of those items might be?Quote:

As you progress through the story, there will be new rewards to obtain from Bert Bartleby (who will also be following Bingo's adventures keenly)Quote:

They used to be rewards for the now removed quest Belated Birthday and I really want them on my characters on the server I restarted on a couple of years ago. Please? :o

Ha, I again liked this week's episode.
The fact that old Tom just misplaced and forgot about Bingo's diary ties in nicely of what was said about him at the council of Elrond. You know, that he cannot be entrusted to keep th ring safe, because he is oblivious to the concerns of the mortals and therefore might just forget he has the ring and lose it.
He certainly is oblivious to Bingo's concerns. "Oh, bother!" :)
Hey, you know, while playing it that didn't even occur to me, but that's a really good point.Quote:

The Two Taverns :)
at first glance I thought it said The Two Towers.
In the meantime it looks like we get to stop for drinks every chance we get :)
What's next? a BBQ on Weathertop?
Bingo should have a traveling wagon with him so we can tailgate along the way ;)
I thought this week's felt a little dry. And it's certainly going to make it impossible to roleplay in the Pony common room for a week or two. Oh well, there are other places.
I am of the oppisite mind, I foind last weeks to be a bit dryer than most, in fact it seems to me that every other week seems to be the better instalment (they are all good just some like this weeks seem better to me)Quote:

Question about Bingo tokens, right now we are restricted to getting only some of the rewards (not enough tokens for all the stuff), so picking and choosing. Will there be some way in the future of getting enough tokens to get all the rewards on one character or will you need quite a few toons to gather all the goodies?
A related note about the items in the vendor (mainly the decoration items). Turbine, PLEASE, make it bind to account, not bind on acquire...Quote:

It's not the appropriateness, it's the spamminess. If you RP drinking and eating and dancing on a table you don't do it with a dozen quick emotes scrolling the screen (and if you do you get on ignore lists pretty quick), you do it by describing your action, hopefully the way an author might describe it if that was happening in a scene. But with a dozen people running through the room doing a dozen emotes each, there's no room to follow much of anything else in the scrolling. But it'll tail off quickly, it's already starting to.Quote:

Edit: Oh, I have 40 Bingo Boffin tokens. Where do I trade them in?
At Bert Bartleby :)Quote:

Great quest though.

Nevertheless a great Episode. Thanks. :)
Glad you guys enjoyed it! I had a blast today during lunchtime watching people around the office trying to puzzle it out. :DQuote:
