From RSOF (can't log in myself) it sounds like The Crucible has same problem as Flash Powder Factory. Even though most people can't log in, the instanced server is already full >.< Also from RSOF it seems like the 'flat fee' is 500k, and you pay extra on top of this based on your levels and gear...bit pricey for me =\

^ I very much like your idea of husbandry. It could also tie into a number of other skills, like building pens or lakes (for fish) in our POH, growing food with farming or collecting with hunter/gathering skills. Instead of 'slaughtering,' it could have a MTK-like quality, where you check your chickens every so often for eggs and feathers, or can catch fish in your house when your lake has repopulated. Jagex have always joked that they would not add horses, but one can dream...

You have to be logged in to see it.

The FAQ seem to imply that they intend to add even more rares (in addition to fish mask) in the future. No doubt SOF-based, so this game gets even more pay-to-win.

2 tabs of porn, nice. Pornoscape Gotta love the description: "Typing with one hand."

^ I logged in after reset and noticed at Taverly (where the circus actually is this week) there was no symbol on the minimap. I guess this is why.

It's just the last CCF reward, you can use it to let smoking chickens appear. Nothing shows up as member's object anymore, or at least it's not supposed to. Aaaaah that explains it, I feel dumb now.

You're kidding, right. Please tell me you are? Not kidding. They are getting less frequent now but still falling...

About ten chickens and counting just fell out of the sky in edgeville, about 5-10 seconds between them. Something change in clan citadels or is my bonfire smoking them out of the heavens?

Lamp granted 5923xp at 89 agility, about what I would expect from a small SOF lamp.

The email rewards are a unique cape, in-game title and an XP lamp. Surprisingly, free spins are not one of the incentives.

Funny thing: these horns and tattoos are apparently so rare that Jagex valued them at 100m.

Apparently only curled horns, maurader and mystic tattoo are in the common and uncommon slots this weekend. Perhaps they are doing different ones each weekend - which might be good actually, to give decent chance at each and avoid getting doubles.

Is it just me or is EVERYONE getting curled horns? Myself and couple friends got those, none reported any other cosmetics yet...

Curled horns from one of my free spins. Looks like they will be pretty common on these weekends, which kinda defeats the purpose of their ridiculous rarity (so rich kids buying spins could show them off). I had saved the three from yesterday as well but they didn't carry over.

So far about 2-3 nodes per island, post-update. Does anyone know is there is an equivalent of the 9-rune trick for nodes? That might be a bit overpowered (but awesome).

10 runes of any type to the yellow mage gave 5.5k xp at 84 rc. According to Official Wiki, the yellow mage calls you every five minutes. So if you can find him in five minutes from that message, I would be getting 33k xp just from the yellow mage, ignoring any siphon xp, at 84 rc. The blue mages seem to move around too so you can't camp them and wait for hints :( Regardless, I would think that finding the mage when he calls, and siphoning in between, would yield the best xp per hour.

Because that ruins the hype and the mystery and the exclusivity. Repeating them would've been like having the strange power go off once an hour for 2 days or the citadel rocks falling every couple of hours for the 2 weeks. It'd go from being a event where you were there or you missed it to a meh it's that animation again. Sure, but the strange power was for a massive unannounced update, not an addition to a skill we have known about for months. And wasn't there a couple permanent fallen rocks from citadel, and chickens falling occasionally for weeks prior? Regardless, there isn't much mystery surrounding what this is, and it was already 'meh an animation.'

Why on earth did it disappear? They were so minor and unintrusive to the game, I don't see why they couldn't leave it there for a few days for people in other timezones.

Massively overhyped. Was expecting some big event, earth opening up and glowing runic energy out of it, that sort of thing. Instead we get a small blue ball.

The economy? THE ECONOMY? Don't make me laugh. The economy never stopped them from selling spins. They just dont want to give everyone with a quest cape 362 free spins. Seems obvious to me. The 18k I would get from 362x50gp spins would absolutely kill the economy.

Even if the frequency of soulgazers was doubled, hexes would still be pretty damn rare... Have to wait and see by how much this increase is, I suppose.

Someone on RSOF mentioned this and I thought it was good; Make a new dicing clan, 1-60 wins a cabbage, 61-100 doubles your bet. Dicing is now not gambling since you always win.

@Kimberly, I have tried every suggested fix on the RSOF, tried with a variety of browsers, different Internet connections, adjusted every setting recommended. There is nothing I have not tried, that suggestion among them. I know others who have done the same. My RAM for both the RS client and java has already been tried at 1/4, 1/2 and 1gb. FPS issues are not the fault of any player, it is a game engine problem that needs to be fixed.

@tripsis, Many players, myself included, have not been able to get above 6fps for weeks, some even months now. However, because I have prepaid for months in advance (not anticipating such a long-standing problem) I have to watch my credit decline while all I can do ingame is bank-stand. I cannot even reach all five of my herb patches before my juju runs out anymore. Obviously refunding membership to everyone is not an option, but there are other solutions for players experiencing these issues. For example, allowing membership to be 'paused' to save remaining days without unsubscribing (and paying a higher price to resubscribe). I'm sure others in the community have many other (probably better) solutions. Frustration as new updates roll out is understandable, perhaps even justified. They will provide content we will not be able to play (such as fight kiln), and content which will probably lower our fps even further (such as the upcoming graphics updates). While you look forward to them, we are dreading them as the game will become even more unplayable for us. I believe I have been more than patient, but it really has been going on for too long now.
