Some of you have asked about the keg.

What is sinister about the keg? You ask.
Could a keg contain anything but beer? You said.
Tell us about the keg? You queried (when prompted )

Let me tell you about the keg!

The Sinister Keg!!!

It looks normal enough. Wooden. Round. Full, you might hope, of the juices of inebriation and happiness.

You are wrong!!!!

Take a sip, take a couple. Before long you will find yourself dazed, confused, high atop a mountain top, pantless and surrounded by a small army of sword weilding psychotic Angmarim, all trying to figure out if they like what they see, if they want to jump on what they see, or if they should kill what they see.

Stupidity asides though, whoever thought up the idea of the sinister keg must have been taking Cyth pills, and definately deserves an award for most suprising and amusing festival item ever.

The sinister keg is an award presented to any player on Lotro who is able to complete the spring festival labyrinth in less than 3 minutes whilst totally plastered. You may then take a keg of your very own, plant it in your house and drink from its never ending supply of joy.

Over indulgence however, is dealt with in an impressive manner. The drinker is instantly teleported to a random location within the game and left there, sans-trousers, in a completely paraletic state.

To translate it to real world terms, it is very much like taking an 8 year old, handing them an american flag and an unloaded assault rifle, and then telling them theyre off to play cowboys and indians whilst dropping them in the middle of a contested area in Iraq.

Ironically, this might actually be an incredibly good idea of dealing with drink drivers, chavs and other undesirables in modern society anyway, and I’m happy to endorse any endeavour with this in mind

Asides from this, very little i can report at the moment, as im stuck in the labs. Again. Trying my hardest not to ritually slaughter any students… Again.

I may post later, who knows. In the meantime, have fun
