"We will receive your offer," he said. "For though we leave a host of players behind, what matter? If the game-night falls, then we shall have no returning. If it is saved, then the orc-host itself will be cut off. If you are faithful, Jon-buri-Hodgson, then we will give you rich reward, and you shall have the friendship of the Mark for ever."

Saddle your credit cards, ladies and gentlemen. You will need them this day.

Ride a credit card, save a Rohirrim?

Awesome.

There are no words for my level of excitement. The only question now is, do I TPK my Mirkwood party so we can all make Riders of Rohan?

Probably the people at C7 have had to endure even more anxiety than use, struggling against who knows what (and they'll keep it in silence, considered as they are) to fulfill their desire to offer this gemstone. Congrats to the team and keep your own silent fight behind the desks!

Arise, arise, Riders of the Forum!
Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter!
spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered,
a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises!
Ride now, ride now! Ride to the Website!


(Translation: it's up on the website...)

Hey, what are all these orders in my Inbox... Oh.

A sword-day! A red day!
