[1-6-15] Tuska World Event
Very true, to the observant player the 3 God thing died very early on, though arguably Dig Site did not name Zaros if memory serves and he was first referenced in a postbag from the hedge truely. Plus I don't think Armadyl was actually given god status in any lore before the GWD dungeon. From what I recall the 'original' plot for the gods way back when was the 4 gods - with Zaros being the secret they tried to hush up, which is kind of ironic when you think we learnt more about Armadyl, Bandos, Desert Pantheon, Seren and even kinda Marimbo before Zaros really was given anything more than a name. What other planets did Saradomin destroy/help destroy aside from the Naragi homeworld? We don't really have specifics but it is heavily inferred he has been going around worlds and being a douche to those who don't submit to his will in the same way he did to the Naragi We know he got all the centaurs killed and that he assumed control of the icyene home world and he sank/drowned one of the talking head thingies at Entrana Plus we do know he/his followers played a big part in the destruction/removal of other gods followers post Zaros on Gielinor. Not to mention the whole GWD thing - gave each army an amulet as a sign of good will but they are spying devices and stole the Armadyl crossbow

Sara was more popular but then they actually included him in content and he was an utter self-serving dil bag - basically begs off as regretting doing bad stuff then immediately does it again plus very much a my way or I smite you kinda guy. Like even frigging Bandos recognised different people had different ideals and respected you for it, but Saradomin don;t believe his exact brand and he goes all smite crazy on you.

You might get more attention if you remove some/all of the text formatting as well. ;) The arrow thing serves no purpose and nor does the font being enlarged. Further more making the text black makes it pretty unreadable on the darker forum skins.

[1-6-15] Tuska World Event
I think its pretty much a given that it does damage Tuska. The entire pop up thing is about throwing it in to the portal in order to damage her! It's not ambiguously worded or vague or round about the houses it literally goes oh look you got a shiny rock, go throw it in a portal on tuska to damage her!

Future Update Discussions
Tbh I don't think these new concepts - like the jigsaw one from twitter - that links to raids is Airut concept art. They don't look like Airut, but they do share a lot of traits with Tuska. I'd think the Goobie world where raids take place is the home planet not of Airut, which found Tuska later on, but of the species Tuska originates from. They did mention that we'd learn more of Tuska's origins and a mindless world eatting bore god would make sense it came from a relatively mindless species that continually attacks of weak and defenceless Goobies.

Player Power Poll (forum) Removal
No big surprise tbh. That forum as a whole barely serves any purpose beyond the early announcement of the polls and discussion of active ones and with them being less frequent and/or part of runelabs now all that can easily fit elsewhere. Not to mention the forum threads about the polls were, for the most part, a pr diasters - far to many posts pointing out the flaws of polls where completely dissimilar content is pitted against each other and pointing out the lack of very obvious answers on other polls.

Which English Dialect Do You Speak?
What I find interesting though is if he specifically tried to avoid picking the american english ones, presumably to purposefully force his result away from that even though he might use some of them?, he doesn't actually known american english all that well as he's managed to pick a lot of them XD

Extremely Odd Issue with Smartphone
I get similar with my tablet from time to time (like once every 2 or 3 weeks on average if I havent rebooted it) do my unlock pattern, screen turns off instead of unlocking - I can turn screen bk on but its still locked and it just repeats same loop. I just hold the power button so I get the turn off option pop up and reboot it and its all good.

This appears to be the game from Mark Gerhard's new company that several J Mods have left Jagex to work on.
Doesn't look all that appealing to me seems very much generic copy the tried and tested formula type game. For me a game needs 1 or more of the following to actually grab me 1) Be the first good game of a certain type - ie Assassins Creed was the first series to really nail the whole parkoury assassiny thing as the main element of the game. 2) Be a good game of an existing niche that brings a new or interesting twist - ie Dishonoured with the not quite the usual supernatural twist on assassiny stuff 3) Look so beautiful I don't care about anything else. 4) Have an amazing story that makes me not care about anything else. 5) Be a franchise I'm already love and therefore just want to play anyway I'm more taken by that new RS legends game they are working on and even block n load got me more intrigued and dont really do first person shooters.

They aren't quite the same meteors. Burning red ones = xp and relics. Shiny green ones = chunks to take to tuska for xp. Red you can only get 2 a day, green seem unlimited.

Personally for any meaning at all of even a sort of trend to be garnered I'd say 1% needs to equal 10 or more data points aka at least 1000 data points. For the meaning to hold real significance I'd say that'd go to 100+ minimum (aka 10,000+ data points)

Put PIN protection on inventory dropping
Could be a nice little update if they can get it to work correctly Though if this was in place then one might also question whether their ought to be pin entry before you are allowed to enter combat? After all there is, at present, 3 means a hacker can use to rid you of goods without you pin - dropping it, getting top end degradables to turn to dust and dying enough without reclaiming to get them gone. But then there is the question of is it too babying? With all the guards in place now it is very hard for a hacker to get into an account and if you have concerns should you not take the time to bank things before logging off to ensure they are behind your pin?

The last I heard to do with reworks as a whole was 'maybe one next year' without any specifics as to which one.

Future Update Discussions
^ Yeah Helring basically covered it The idea of the elite skills is not they are an add-on or modification to an existing skill. They are a skill in their own right. The difference is they are about combining other talents we already have to do new things and therefore you need a base level of knowledge in those feeder skills to begin. For example Inventor is about taking various technologies we know from around the world - dwarven metal working, elf crystal, cave goblin electrics, gnome mechanics etc. - and working to combine them to make new things. To begin inventing you need a base level of knowledge in smithing and crafting so that you know how to work with these various materials. Plus a level of knowledge about divination to help use the energies to fuse the techs together and fuel their functions. Once you have unlocked inventor it has its own xp scale and levels totally independent from smithing, crafting and divination. The only link after you've unlocked it is you will need smithed goods, crafted goods and divine energies as resources to use in inventor. I think some of the other examples they gave in the stream perhaps make it clearer than inventor does. For example Necromancy it would be an elite skill likely requiring prayer, magic and summoning to unlock. Prayer because it is a skill that gives us some knowledge of bones/corpses and spiritual power. Summoning because it gives us knowledge of bringing spirits from other realms to our side and binding them to our service, Magic because we would need arcane knowledge to be able to re-build a body and hold it together.

I said ~3% not 3% for a reason - that reason being I meant around 3% rather than exactly 3% a statement which is true as a rough average of the deviance from established percentage on your figures is in the 3% ballpark The math process: You were 5% out on no charm, 2% out on gold 4% on blue 1% on green 2% on crimson aka there was about 14% deviance overall. average between 5 categories is 2.8%. Therefore for the simplicity of my statement I rounded off to 3 and used the tilde symbol to indicate it was not an exact figure resulting in ~3% variance in your figures from the statistical norm and none of your variances were 'significantly' outside 3% anyway - they are all within +/-2 which is hardly a huge deviance from 3% for such a tiny sample at 198 kills for the entire sample 1% is basically 2 drops. In the established norm 1% equates to 1500 data points, your entire sample being barely over 0.1% worth of their data - if as a sample it was added to the big study you'd be lucky if it made the averages shift by 0.01 of a %

Mini map in tunnels and caves blocked
That would be because the mini map is intentionally blocked out in certain dungeons to add the mystery and exploration of the place - you can't just see where everything is on a map as soon as you enter you have to learn for yourself.

Thats hardly a significant change or indicative of anything. It's just a small size size resulting in less accurate findings, the fact that from such a small sample your numbers are still all within ~3% of the main data is actually pretty on course statistically. With a sample size thats 1/1000th of the big data test you'd expect the results to be a lot further out than ~3% If anything all it says is you got lucky with a couple of extra blue charm drops than is statistically average.

Adware, malware.. Need a spot of advice.
Remove the extension Run a good virus/malware scan. If that doesn't work check add/remove programs for anything that sounds fishy/you dont recognise and/or completely wipe chrome from your system and then do a clean install.

Bonus Exp Confusion/glitch?!?! PLEASE HELP
Yeah just to reiterate again what others have said. The format of the xp pop ups is +Total xp gained (Amoung of this that is bonus xp) So if you get +30xp (15 Bonus xp) it measn you have gained 30xp, 15 of which was bonuys xp. If you made a bowstring without bonus xp you'd get +15xp If you made a bowstring with bonus xp on a double xp weekend you'd see +45xp (15 bonus xp) etc.

[1-6-15] Tuska World Event
Yeah Tuska seems solidly enroute to 7/15 on the 'Gielinor can't win' scale. Seems kinda weird/dull to me that the event hasn't progressed any either, all the previous ones had progressions and developments as the weeks went by - we're gonna be half way through the event soon and literally nothing has happened. I thought at least we'd see some new islands in the rotation and what happened to 'Tuska will adapt to our attacks'? So far she hasn't adapted at all, not that she needs to what with the excessively high health that we can't beat. I mean it shouldn't be easy to beat her like a couple of days were, but surely it should be in a state where we're well on track at this time of day and its a case of in the last raid or two of the day we could either fall just short or just grasp victory. Not Tuska having like half health left...

[1-6-15] Tuska World Event
Just like Zamorak. The only real difference is that Zamorak is less rude to you, personally. He's basically Shin Megami Tensei's take on Lucifer: charismatic, idealistic, seemingly reasonable... But if you start thinking his endgame won't make the world a shitty place to be for a lot of people then you're probably not paying attention. Also it's fun to watch him take responsibility for the actions of his followers. For me I much prefer Zammy cause he doesn't pretend to be perfect and he takes responsibility for whats he done and he does seem to learn from his mistakes and not repeat them. Saradomin on the other hand is like no sssh im perfect. WHAT YOU DONT AGREE NOW I WILL SMITE YOU. Oh I know I smited him, but I feel bad and I wanna do better, but don't tell cause ssh im perfect now hand me that uber power stick WHAT YOU WONT LET ME BLAST YOU YOU PUNY MORTAL. I know bad, ssh dont tell im good really. Its sort of like Zammy is that friend who mixes his drinks at the party once and feels like death the next day, but he remembers to not do it again so you move on and different things happen. Saradomin is the guy who mixes his drinks, spends the next day throwing up and feeling like death and swearing off drink entirely only to go and do the exact same thing the next week and so on and so forth.
