  1. No matter what you may think, you cannot beat my map.

    I stole tintin's map, made it slightly bigger than then ADDED A SUPER AWESOME TWO-WAY HUMAN CONVEYOR BELT TRANSPORTER SYSTEM!

    All you need to do is step on the green arrow pointing in the direction you will be transported, and you will be transported to the opposite base! It works both ways, and there are incoming and outgoing conveyors from each exit.

  2. Its typical: you wait ten years for a clan-owned environment to turn up, and hundreds of them arrive at once! Clan Citadels, floating castles in the sky, have drifted over the horizon for you and your clanmates to customise and own. Hold clan meetings, coordinate skirmishes with other clans, and gather together to collect resources for the upgrading and maintenance of your Clan Citadel!

     

    Starting Out:

     

    Gather your clan and head to Avalani in the portal area of the Clan Camp, south of Falador. Shell be eager to start the creation ritual, connecting you and your clan to your very own Clan Citadel, decked out with your clans insignia and colours. You will need to be in a clan of 5 or more clanmates who are members to setup a Clan Citadel and your clan must contain 5 or more members for you to access your existing Citadel. Free players are not able to enter the Clan Citadels.

     

    With the ritual complete, you can teleport to your citadel from the large portal in the Clan Camp. This will take you to the clan portal on your very own Clan Citadel, where you can begin your explorations and decide on which Citadel layout you want to have. This includes options for the sky, which will be viewable all around and below your Clan Citadel, and can be sunlit or starlit, according to your preferences. New players should talk to Avalani in the Citadel to get books and pointers to help with the setup process.

     

    Building Your Citadel:

     

    As you explore your chosen Clan Citadel layout, you will note a number of empty hotspots that can be filled with your choice of decoration or useful locations. To build on these hotspots, however, you and your clanmates will need to gather resources.

     

    Gathering resources can be done at skill hotspots within the Citadel. Work as a clan at these hotspots and you will begin to generate the resources needed to construct more impressive things for your clan. You will also generate a small amount of skill XP as you do so, with hard workers unlocking the clan ring (see Rewards). There are no skill requirements, no gp costs and no item requirements to contribute to the resource pool for your clan.

     

    Your Clan Citadel can be upgraded if your clan is particularly diligent at gaining resources, and is of a sufficient size. There are seven tiers of Clan Citadel to unlock and move up through, with each tier offering more space, more hotspots and more impressive elements to add about your Clan Citadel. Ignore the skill hotspots and neglect to gather resources, however, and your Clan Citadel will degrade and potentially even drop to a lower tier. This is because your Citadel requires a weekly resource upkeep; a small amount of effort for the use of the area.

     

    Areas of the Citadel:

     

    The first stop for many will be the Clan Battlefield. Each Clan Citadel gets one for free, and it can be accessed by speaking to the clan battlemaster a character wandering about your citadel. The Battlefield is home to a RuneScape first: an editor that allows you to generate your own combat scenarios and minigames. Create and fine-tune a battlefield, and then invite other clans (or your clan members) to participate in scenarios limited only by what you can think of. Capture the Flag games, deathmatches, ball games, mazes and even combinations of these ideas are possible using the tool. Were intrigued by what outlandish games you might create!

     

    Elsewhere, the Keep is the centrepiece of your Clan Citadel. This large battlement houses your senate, meeting rooms and party room. The senate is destined to be where larger meetings are held, with a podium for a speaker and seats for an audience; the meeting rooms can host smaller meetings that are set to public or, from tier 2 onwards, private; and the party room, accessible from tier 3 onwards, can play host to balloon drops or all-night parties.

     

    You might want to make a stop at the clan noticeboard, found at the entrance of the Clan Citadel, which allows you to communicate your goals and ethos to your clanmates. It is also worth noting that making your way around the Clan Citadel is made easier by a nifty addition: opening your citadels map and clicking on an area marked with a T will teleport you to that location.

     

    Accessing the Citadel:

     

    A clan ranking and permissions system is used to determine who can make changes to Clan Citadels. Permissions can be given for the construction and customisation of hotspots, and also downgrading areas. Clanmates may change permissions for anyone who is ranked below them in the clan.

     

    New members of the clan must pass a probationary period of one week before they can contribute to resource gathering or the clans size. The founders of a Clan Citadel (those who took part in the creation ritual) and those who join in the week following Clan Citadels release are exempt from this probationary period. A Clan Citadel must be owned by 5 clanmates or more, otherwise the Citadel becomes inaccessible after the next build tick until such a time that the clan regains those 5 clanmates.

     

    RuneScape subscribers who are not in your clan can still visit your Clan Citadel, although they may be restricted to certain areas. Similarly, you can visit other Clan Citadels for diplomatic purposes if they permit non-clanmates to visit or even just to get a glimpse of what other Clan Citadels look like. To set visiting preferences for your Clan Citadel, access your Clan Settings interface.

     

    Rewards:

     

    There are few bigger rewards than having a huge citadel for you and your clans to call your own. There are, however, some perks that are worth mentioning. The clan ring is an accessory thats unlocked by contributing enough resources to the clan resource pool in a given week. Charge the clan ring on a skill hotspot to align it with that skill. When you perform that skill on the surface of RuneScape, you will receive a 1.5x multiplier to any XP gained. The amount of total bonus XP is dependent on your level and the tier of the skill hotspot.

     

    For those clans who are diligent and proud enough to level their Citadel all the way up to tier 7, we are delighted to offer the clan dragon! Visitors will be more than a little impressed by your choice of mascot. Watch their faces as the dragon flies from its perch and takes a quick tour of your Citadel...

    In other news...

    Your clan homepage has now been updated to reflect the level of your Clan Citadel.

     

    Thanks for hiding the threads I spammed by accident! Won't happen again, I promise....

  3. Using my built-in map editor, you'll be able to design and save your own Battlefield layouts, placing elements such as walls, ice, flag spawns, ball spawns, goals, tag markers, destroyable barriers, power-ups and many other things (our testers started by drawing dirty pictures, tut tut tut).

  4. Ordinarily, I really dislike Black & White. But, I guess I can give it a go.

     

    I'm still not very confident with taking photos in public. I'm still unable to take a photo while someone is looking at me -- this is something I'm aiming to overcome these next few weeks.

     

    I was walking around the city for around 3 hours and these are pretty much all I got, which is kinda shameful. Still, it's something.

     

    All these were taken with a 5D Mk II and Sigma 50mm f/1.4 combo.

  5. Having spent his whole life fishing' date=' Jones the fisherman has decided to retire in style. He believes that there’s a fortune to be had by hunting the dreaded Thalassus: a sea monster that’s rumoured to be thousands of years old and as big as a village. That’s what the stories say anyway, as no survivors have returned to tell tales of it, but you can be sure of one thing: you want to be far, far away from it when it surfaces.

     

    If Jones is to stand a chance of landing this deadly beast, he needs your help. A rower, harpoon and map are needed before you can head out to hunt (those who suffer from sea-sickness, beware). Then there’s the small problem of finding the beast; while Thalassus is big, the oceans are bigger, and hunting it is like finding a giant, hungry needle in a humungous haystack.

     

    You might come across treasure in the shipwrecks out to sea, and there’s a healthy haul of XP to salvage from this master quest. That’s not all, as additional hunting opportunities are on offer to eager sailors.

     

    At the end of the day, a hunter or their quarry will be on the menu. So, who will be the Deadliest Catch: Jones or the Thalassus?

    As those who voted in the ‘What’s My Name?’ Guaranteed Content Poll will have already noted, the winning sea monster name of ‘Thalassus’ has made it in game and the creature is munching on players as we speak! Thank you to all of those who voted and got the name into RuneScape.

     

    We are ending support for older versions of Java (versions older than Sun Java 1.6.0_10) in a couple of weeks time. So that we do not catch players unaware, we have created a warning screen for those players who will be affected, which will pop up when you initially load the RuneScape applet, offering links to help you upgrade. Upgrading from an older version of Java will have the added benefit of running the RuneScape applet more smoothly.

    On topic: I usually use Soul Split in situations like Castle Wars and Soul Wars, simply because I use fewer bandages/I can go longer without dying.

     

    I also use Soul Split in Duel Arena because fights are quick and I just enjoy using Soul Split. If someone uses protection prayers, why should I care? I can use them too.

  7. Photographic memory. I can look at a sign or a few words such as a fast food menu without actually registering it, and then read it later.

    I also tend to notice pretty much everything. When sitting at a bus stop I'll notice things like a person's shoes, socks, skin, eyes, glasses, bag, contents of bag(s), earphones/earphone colour, clothes, hair, and pretty much analyze everyone I see. I also do this with inanimate objects and vehicles. The seats on a bus, for example. The patterns, colours of patterns, distance between patterns and number of patterns. I remember everything in vivid detail and will likely remember small insignificant details if I were asked about it later (e.g. what colour shoes was the woman on your right wearing in front of the hospital on Friday? Well, I remember this. It's purple. Purple Nikes. The man sitting on your left? He was wearing a faded-green sandals, a green chequered jacket over a plain grey singlet and faded blue shorts.)

     

    I can type at around 90 WPM (highest 97WPM).

     

    When arguing with someone, I never raise my voice, swear or say anything without thinking about it first. This annoys a lot of people, who think I don't care because I appear so calm. In fact, I haven't raised my voice in anger for literally years now.
