I am curious whether jagex will have to bug fix, or if they'll get it right on release, so that the new cape functions for ice strykes.

Possibility of a members free trial in the coming months
there is currently no trial for the full game. f2p dose not do a good job at really showing you the potential of p2p It is however a free trial or demo of the full game, limited in features the same way any demo or trial is. How many trials allow you to get the maximum level you can get in skills? Can you name a single one that doesn't have a level cap? Runescape.

Hati Gloves and Skoll boots
In the 90s both give over 1mil total (so over 500k actual bonus). 10k*lvl is definitely nowhere near a realistic formula. 10k*90 = 900k At 90 you get like 1.2m - 1.3m

Woman wins $9,867 in small claims court over "false" MPG figures.
Ok I read the website for these 'facts' people are using as reason why her case is bogus and people are still being ridiculously selective and bias over which facts they respond too and which they ignore. The website also mentions: 1) She DID go to a Honda dealer and was told several times it was their policy to not look at the car (in relation to this issue) unless a certain warning light was on. 2) She offered to let them inspect it before the court case 3) The MPG issue relates to a software update the Honda's got that was 'to extend battery life' which it achieved (without being made clear to customers) by causing the engine to use the petrol more than previously thus seriously reducing MPG to below half of the stickered 50 MPG for many people. - A Honda Employee even testified to this being true in the court case. 4) The EPA contacted Honda to say that they should probably put a lower MPG on the sticker as the testing conditions they use, they had decided, could not accurately present average driving on a hybrid engine.

I'd highly doubt that black armour as being anything of note, you can clearly see it still conforms to the old shapes with a few added spikes. The new armours are waaaaayyyy different and when you think black is only a small step up from steel it's not gonna be too extremely different from steel (though based on bronze > stell it will be a little bit bulkier an have a few more armour plates)

Woman wins $9,867 in small claims court over "false" MPG figures.
I would consider that however, I don't have the facts on that case so all I can talk about is her case, which in my opinion and from the facts I have seen is bogus. The fact the class action suit was won is fact enough to have an impact on the 'her case is bogus' view. After all she was in the class action suit then opted out to get a bigger pay out, so her case must be as valid/invalid as the entire class action suit. Given the numbers of people involved in even a small class action suit gives heavy weighting in favour of there is indeed something wrong. Besides we have no facts at all to go off that her case is bogus. That's ridiculously presumptive and bias given lack of facts about what has happened. The only facts we got is she won the case (as did the class action suit) and the case was about the car significantly under-performing on MPG; how does that give any extra proof to the 'it's bogus' claim than it does to the 'it's genuine' claim.

The thing is everyone is fixating on the one woman, but it's NOT one woman. She filed a separate claim after LOTS of people one a class action suit for the same reason. The clear implication being it CANNOT be the circumstance of how it is driven as lots of people have the same complaint. I should think under the test conditions which they use to come up with MPG ratings the Honda was shown to not do the claimed 50 MPG, after a lot of people all raised the same issue of not getting anywhere near 50 MPG.

You are mis-reading as you ignore the surrounding context: "How would you feel about fighting two Jads...at the same time? This double team against some of the toughest bosses in the game will be nothing compared to what awaits in the final wave." This bit: "How would you feel about fighting two Jads...at the same time?" Creates the idea of a 'double team' of Jad, therefore the answer to that question that begins "this double team" refers too the afore established double team of two jads.

Today...
I've never had anyone look at my GCSE certificates before so I dunno :unsure: Wat, not even when you went to the university to enroll onto your chosen course? Man, what the hell. I played runescape all day today. It shouldn't pose an issue, nowhere in the education system (that I am aware of) asks to see certificates these days, especially universities. For 1 thing GCSE means like nothing to universities, for another further education results (a levels etc) all get passed through UCAS to be given to the universities so they get all the confirmation they need that way. It is why on results day you can often see the outcome of your conditional offers on UCAS before you are able to collect your results (it all goes live like 9am on UCAS)

I think the fact there is a successful class action law suit of many honda customers BEFORE she filed her independant claim goes a long way to show it is not (as some are suggesting) a case of MPG being slightly off due to driving style and more a case of MPG being miles off with all types of driving.

Lol I called it too... Honestly I don't see this as a hit to the max cape. ^ The post you didn't see..but quoted.

price of the new flasks?
If this is true imagine the rants if it can be filled eg you take a 3 dose to bank, refill to 6 then at 3 dose it breaks and you lose your 3 doses!
-

But that is still all pointlessly complex extras Jagex has no reason to add, plus why would they mention to use it breaks when empty but not mention it has a strictly limited lifespan if not emptied?

People do do it though because the gloves and dreadnips are epic useful for certain things, the dreadnips especially. You don't hear a lot of people doing it recreationally, and those that do perform at the Tower do so only to unlock cape achievements or get Goliath gloves. :/ The same can be said of most every mini-game though. Most at pc/conquest are only there for xp or for the armour. Most at soulwars are only there for xp. Most at temple trekking are only there for lumberjack or constructors. Most at GOP are only after master rc robes or altar teletabs. Most at Livid farm are only after the spells. Most at MA are only there for the rings. etc. But it don't matter why they do it, they still do it.

Sure people do stuff to have fun, but even having fun it is stupid to either: a) Discard a 2 dose extreme or overload as you cannot decant it. b) Take a 2 dose on a trip when you could take a full 6 dose and last longer. And I highly doubt jagex is gonna imposing any complex system on these beyond when 1 dose is drunk they break; it'd take too much coding for no real reason. Plus even Jagex aren't stupid enough to not see how people use potions (eg decanting leftovers to reform full pots)

I should think in reality Isaakson is a stupid mistake on jagex's part, you could perhaps explain it away as whatever child comes first dictates the end, but then unless there's a 4th elder female sibling Bryll should be Thoksson/Thokssen.

price of the new flasks?
lol i doubt jagex will make it possible to do that, since they clearly stated that they want this to be a good daily profit for people that meet the requirements. How exactly are they going to disallow it? Even if they enforce a rule where by you can ONLY decant 6 doses into it, you can decant an extra 5 in when its at 1. Make it so you can't add to it at all after the first 6? Watching the rage fly and then the item become virtually unused as people don't want to waste left over dregs of potions, but equally don't want to waste space taking 2 or 1 dose pots out to tasks. Besides what Jagex wants/hopes won't dictate how they are used in reality short of a major nerf that kills the content (eg how they 'fixed' flash powder factory and now it's dead as the robes aren't worth it due to time and it's rubbish xp rates)

Tht implies daughter is still an option because Anne and Lisse are both women with "Isaakson" surname.

It'd be Thoksson for those two, though :P Wouldn't be "son" would have to be fremmnikanised

Bryll has to be Thok's daughter her last name Thoksdottir, translates as Thok's daughter. So I'd guess Thok, Marmaros and Bryll must have a father called Thok; if only Thok and Marmaros has a second name we could suss it out (eg if they were Thok Thoksdottir and Marmaros Thoksdottir)

There is always the option that they may be quite low, as some have pointed out they hold 6 doses and are destroyed when emptied. So why not just treat them as a 5 dose potion? Reap the benefits, but never empty them. That way you only need 1 lot of them ever which would wipe out a lot of demand.
