We're not entirely sure what happened here, but perhaps this explains why we haven't seen as many Lord of the Rings Online shots lately. Wookadan from the Meneldor server writes: There must have been some sort of glitch that I ran into, because all of the water was glowing white. [It] made the screenshot look like I was being abducted by aliens or something! We suspect it could also be Gandalf playing pranks on people, too.

Do you have some odd or interesting screen glitches that you have taken snaps of? Perhaps you just like the look of a certain world. Whatever the case, we want your screenshots. Just toss them into an email to oneshots AT massively DOT com. Yours could be next!

One of the things that really struck so many of us as being cool when LotRO started out was the concept of being able to put the smack down on those creepy Ringwraiths. So we were glad to see this screenshot that came in recently from Wookers, that featured his party doing just that. Of course, the thing that really made us giggle about this is that it looks like this Ringwraith has been suffering one heck of a beatdown lately -- look at it! It's hunched over and looking pretty sad. If they weren't so undeniably evil, we'd feel bad for it.

Do you have a screenshot of some righteous smackdown from your favorite game? If so, send those bad boys (or screens of bad boys and girls getting owned) to us at oneshots AT massively DOT com! The more screenshots the better, as we're soon to be left to digging through the screenshot folders of our new columnists.

All dressed up with nowhere to go? Then do what Wookadan and his Fellowship on the Meneldor server did in Lord of the Rings Online -- throw a dead man's party! Who could ask for more? Here's what he had to say:

[I call this] Line-Dancing with the Oath-Breaker Captain. Before pummeling him back to 'death,' the fellowship felt we should honor the dead with a little line dance!

Nothing better than a little bit of dancing for the one year birthday of Turbine's Lord of the Rings Online. If you haven't gotten a chance to go get registered to win some free Lord of the Rings Online gametime, then get to it! Perhaps you'll have another reason to dance -- a victory dance.

Do you have some screens of your group celebrating or just goofing off in your favorite MMO? If so, we'd love to see them! Pop those shots and a quick description into an email to oneshots AT massively DOT com! There's (always) room for maybe just one more.

Hooray! More combat shots are coming in from various readers, showing off just what's going on in their gaming worlds. Today's screenshot comes to us from Wookadan from the Meneldor server in Lord of the Rings Online. He described this shot as "Defending Weathertop" which he says is a screen he took whole he was fighting the troll atop of Weathertop. Screens like this really show off some of the cool-looking effects that Turbine has put into this game, as well as the great detail on monsters.

Do you have some screenshots of monster-slaying (or player-slaying) in your favorite MMO? If so, gather them up, pop them into a mail with a quick description, and send them to us at oneshots AT massively DOT com. Your deeds of derring-do could be spotlighted next!

It's time for another gaming Sunday! You know, that day of the week when many of us try to cram in as much gaming as time will permit, with some of us either multiboxing or just bouncing between as many games as we possibly can? Well, here's one group's creative take on it, managing to get in some Lord of the Rings Online in along with Rock Band time! As Wookadan from the Meneldor server tells us:

While hanging out in the Auction House, a trio came in and started playing music for us to enjoy while shopping!

Okay, so it's not quite Rock Band, but if you could somehow get the guitar controllers mapped to key commands on the PC, that could make playing a Bard a lot more fun in a bunch of different games! (We'd play it!)

Do you have an interesting screenshot of things going on in your online gaming world? Perhaps you've found something off-the-beaten-path that you think others might enjoy seeing. Whatever the reason or story, snag those screenshots and toss them into a mail to us at oneshots AT massively. DOT com. We can always use more screens!
