Behind the Scenes - May
It's not a 'bug' it's the fact that (much like the loyalty point refunds) they cannot apply it automatically. They have staff sitting there with a list of accounts that qualified going through applying the reward account by account. Once they get to you on the list you'll get the chat box message saying Diango has it, regardless of if your online already or not. Also when collecting it you use the standard number 5 look at other items option on Diango and it just appears in the cosmetic reclaim interface (where katana, ice mask, runefest stuff goes) no special dialogues.

BTS June
But there's not five weeks. There's 4 weeks fully in June. You only get five if you count this week as June, which Jagex don't as it started in May and we had an update already. And the later end of June there's no way to add an extra week, 1st july is a sunday so whatever way you count weeks starting (sunday or monday) last week is most certainly the one starting on the 24th/25th. Next week monday and tuesday are bank holidays for the Jubilee so probably a no-update week (which we normally have 1 of a month anyway) That leaves 3 weeks and 3 updates, even if one is not a 'true' update in the sense that it is the beta.

Cryptic Clue Fest 2012
Edit: Repurposed since he realised his mistake. Gotta say glad I helped a friend with a cockney character in their dissertation with this, made the standard ones easy to swap out and meant I was in practice for the phonetic-styling to get the others fairly quick.

I think I've worked it out: [hide] Lor' luv a duck! I’m on me OWN to find me way to EDGEVILLE to hop across the WILDERNESS WALL. Before I go I’ll buy me a nice blue CAPE from RICHARD. Hope I don’t end up DEAD. Gawdon Bennet! I was standin' in the BARBER, in me favaaahrite TOWN of FALADOR. I fancied DANCE, so I decided ter visi’ PARTY PETE and he gave me a pink AFRO. Lawd above, while on me travels I ended up in PORT SARIM where I find a great PUB where you can find a free BEER on the TABLE! Nuff said! So that would mean: 1 blue wildy team cape from richard in edge 1 pink afro 1 beer from tabel in sarim [/hide]

Yet plenty of people are showing videos/commeting on doing it fairly easily on void with only 4 or 5 brews used. So it's not like you HAVE to spend all that on getting her killed, especially when you consider it seems royal crossbow tears her a new one much more than conventional weapons.

Whilst she may not be the biggest money making boss I don't think she'll be entirely dead content. Those who have trouble finding teams/groups will surely enjoy the improved profitability they get from a solo only monster compared to trying to solo higher stuff and likely being spot stolen/kill stolen etc. And even if her unique drops aren't up to much her other drops seem to ensure she'll give reasonable returns.

RuneCast and BTS Video discussion.
They did NOT say bows will be better than cbows. If you tie that point int the following comments about variety it is clear what they mean is that bows and crossbows of comparable requirements will BOTH be viable choices. Plus info from other videos have clearly stated they want to make all weapons (of a given level) equal in terms of dps but with different uses. So for example maces will be much slower but hit much harder to compensate and be good at crush, whilst daggers will hit super fast but quite low and probably be good for slashing etc. Extrpolating this to ranged I'd assume this means bows are likely to ht much harder to compensate for being slower and we might see the bolt tips expanded into matching/similar arrows.

I'd be surprised if it can't recharged since it's not like an item you find and is falling apart. It's a solid built bow that you take to charge magically using her fire. Kind of like DFS or polypore.

Royal Crossbow uses?
Basically any fight that takes more than about 30 seconds it has the potential to PWN but it is capped to shit at corp. For QBD it's certainly a must have, as long as u re hit her before the 2nd bleed damage so it stays 'locked on' and doesnt power down you can tear her to shreds.

Average time on DG please?
I mentioned meds because it was a frame of reference because I havent done many larges due to mixtures of lag and stuff and was not sure of my rate and it served the purpose of pointing out that 30k was too high for level 40. Even level 40 larges aren't gonna beat level 80 meds on xp per floor, the prestige is far too low.

extra level in the grotworm dungeon?
The fact the examine is a question kinda invalidates it as 'proof' of anything. It reads as a typical jagex 'funny' examine and the question mark suggests its our character wondering could this be? rather than saying yes this is.

Ugune Seeds.
You should be activating greenfingers when harvesting, not just for planting. It only lasts 20mins with an hour recharge so activating for planting means you can't re-use it for harvest and it offers 3%+ yield on harvesting. Plus unless you are uselessly slow you can easily harvest and replant all 7 herb patches in game comfortable within the aura up time and still benefit from disease avoidance in the first few growth cycles via this.

Average time on DG please?
Youre a fairly low dg level, so I guess you get like, 30k max dg xp per floor? which is 3k tokens. Assuming youre not dging solo/with an appalling team, you should get your floors done in 20-25 mins tops. So two floors, nearing an hour total if youre slow. 30k a floor at level 40ish is a major over-estimation. At my level I'm still firmly in the 30-40k zone for med floors. At level 40 you'd be looking at more like 15k-20k a floor and that's IF you can actually do it as a team floor, considering it's not even up to the usual floors people do (abn2, occult, warped)

^ No that's a widely believed mistake. All references mark Saradomin solely as the god of wisdom, Armadyl as law (sometimes order as well, but they are kind of one in the same), Zaros as might, Bandos as war and Zamorak as chaos. Nothing in the lore (that hasn't been debunked by a better source*) says Saradomin has anything to do with order. *I think it does mention it in the old old old old god letters but those are pretty much entirely disregarded based on the fact they use the original lore of zammy sara guthix being brothers who created the world together which has been entirely retconned thus rendering the whole thing to be un-true lore.

That is man learning magic/runecrafting as referenced in Lunar clan stuff. I believe the right click name given to the man crops up in one of the books in lunar clan lore which is what confirms it. Can't quite recall the name though. Plus ROTM cutscene clearly shows that bloke is not Saradomin. There is no reference to any god being able to change appearence other than Guthix and presumably Zamorak due to mahjratt powers.

Didn't he ascend into godhood via the stone as seen in the WGS cutscene, which would also make him a false user? No. The cutscene showed Saradomin using the stone's power to save Commander Zilyana after she was injured. Saradomin is a true god in a balanced pair with Zaros (wisdom vs might) like Bandos and Armadyl balance out (war vs law). Hence Juna saying Guthix will be happy about Zaros return as it restores balance since chaos (Zamorak) does not balance out wisdom.

extra level in the grotworm dungeon?
Don't we meet one of the last surviving elder dragon in RFD? It's the little guy who flambleds the cake or whatever for Sir Amik Varze. So if that's correct, the elder dragons with little guys with stubby arms and legs and tiny wings. Kinda reminds me of a Dragonite. Nah, that was just some kind of "fairy dragon". I doubt they have much significance in the whole Dragonkin plot. If memory serves, the examine text for them hinted they were elder dragons. And if not, it'd be interesting to see what role fairy dragons played in all of this. The examine text did not hint that to my memory and one must consider also the few Elder dragon mentions we do have reference them also being know as Wyrms and being fearsome, certainly not a little fairy dragon thing.

Dodgy Dung Modifier
I did say maybe, not entirely sure how it'd pan out at the lower levels but I'd assume faster floors (as Hedgehog mentioned) would result in better xp:hr, even if only marginally better due to the low prestige but it could be about equal.
-
Dodgy Dung Modifier
You shouldn't kill stuff if it is not in a gd room and the occasional creature that makes a puzzle a pita (eg a mage that can dehood you in a puzzle room that has all high level hood avoidables) for lower levels. But it may be worth it at the lower levels because it's not until prestige 30+ that the xp rates begin to pick up meaning before then even small minuses do kinda hit ya hard.
-
Dodgy Dung Modifier
Level mod is a complex one but the basis of it is percentage of monsters you killed. Leaving a lot alive gets you negatives. The bad math is due to jagex rounding. The display always rounds down which can result in such funky numbers.

I thought those were pretty much confirmed to be a graphical rework of Brimhaven dung hence lava with bridge, vines around the place, wild dogs and steel dragons.
