Last year on Bilbo Baggins' birthday (the 22nd of September), a special quest involving Bilbo and Frodo was made available to
Lord of the Rings Online players. This year the birthday celebration has started early, almost a week before the actual date.
LotRO Europe is
giving away a very specific number of full game account keys: 111, or eleventy-one as Bilbo himself might say. They will be given away on
the game's community forums, the
LOTRO_Europe and
Codies Twitter feeds, as well as the Codemasters blog
May Contain Gamers. The way they are given out at these locations may differ, but we do know that in the case of Twitter, it's first come first served -- if you can plug the key into a
Codemasters account quicker than the next punter, it's yours. An additional 111 keys
will be given away by some German and French community sites.
Past the account key giveaway, there will also be in-game festivities starting on the 21st of September and continuing until the 25th. We'll keep our eyes peeled for more news regarding the birthday fun.

what do you mean "now they removed that flood of low level quests?" have they changed the game before Moria to be less painful?
