From the News: Completed three 12-man skirmish raids before needing to break up for the night. Well done, all! Next Saturday Irmo and Miriel will be away celebrating Miriel's birthday. Christmas and New Year's will disrupt the Saturday runs after that, but we can still run with those showing up, even if it's a part-pug, 6-man, or 3-man, or duo! Go us!
Breaching the Necromancer's Gate: Celeborn (Kebb, champion), Cirdan (Menarus, hunter), Galdor (Thongaladh, champion), Hurin (Hiurred, captain), Indis (Isaniel, minstrel), Irmo (Irmogar, guardian), Melkor (Passim, rune-keeper), Miriel (Mahariel, minstrel), Nimrodel (Ardisian, hunter), Orome (Oromdur), Pippin (Faerus, guardian), Varda (Fainan, hunter).
Attack at Dawn: Same all-Valar group. Isaniel won the Worn Symbol of Celebrimbor.
Battle in the Tower: Same group.

Very elegant post Nim. I think we can call this all wrapped up now? Just for future reference: This has been resolved in "Topic: Loot: Raid (12-man) Skirmishes" valarguild.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=raiding&action=display&thread=1112*If the raid-leader requests someone change from the Main to an Alt for the good of the raid, that Alt will for that requested time be treated as a Main, unless he/she asks not to be. Sadly changes become a bit buried, but I have tried to update the main post with any changes. Sadly we are not all-seeing, changes may continue to happen as the need arises. Keep your eyes on that post.

Varda said:
This was my error. Looting is a big responsibility and getting loot correct every week is what I should work harder on. I apologize and will make a serious effort to be more mindful. There is no need for Varda to call that as her roll for this round. Nimrodel's Ardisian has been sent a Worn Symbol of Celebrimbor via in-game mail. Congratulation Nimrodel!
I look forward to seeing you all this Saturday.

Updated this weeks line up. Need a bit more input before I add Dannanglor. I know that some struggle with severe lag from the flames etc. even during 6 man runs of this. Perhaps we try it as an extra run in the near future when we have time? Skirmishes to be run: Tuckborough Battle in the Tower Breaching the Necromancer's Gate *The raid skirmish challenge resets only once a week early morning Thursdays, 3:00AM EST For next weeks run (11/26), I will be making a new post. This one is getting a bit long. I will be making a new post each week to allow sign-up reply.

Skirmishes to be run: Stand at Amon Sul Tuckborough Breaching the Necromancer's Gate *The raid skirmish challenge resets only once a week early morning Thursdays, 3:00AM EST If any have something else in mind please do tell. ______________________________________________________ From the News Saturday skirmish raids level 75: We had an overabundance of people, huzzah! So we had some of us on standby for those who had limited time. Amon Sul: Cirdan (Menarus, hunter), Galdor (Andwegar, burglar alt), Gildor (Marrella, guardian), Gorlim (Aeronwy, minstrel), Hurin (Hiurred, captain), Indis (Celebrethil, burglar alt), Irmo (Irmogar, guardian), Melkor (Passim, rune-keeper), Mirel (Mahariel, minstrel), Nimrodel (Ardisian, hunter), Orome (Oromdur, burglar), Pippin (Avengelina, champion).

Tuckborough: Galdor had to leave, Fainan replaced. Cirdan won the symbol! Breaching the Necromancer's Gate: Replaced nearly unconscious Gorlim with Gunwarth who is now in our friend channel. Nellas (Nimeithel, warden) took Orome's spot when he had to go to bed. Afterwards people did three man skirmishes and Library. Skirmish: The Rift of Nurz Ghashu: Hiurred, Menarus, and Kebb. Library and School: Done by two teams: Irmo (Irmogar, captain), Indis (Celebrethil, burglar), and Varda (Fainan, hunter); Galdor (Andwegar, burglar), Gildor (Marrella, guardian), and Nimrodel (Ardisian, hunter).
