November 7, 200718 yr Well today I got one of the biggest surprises and laughs in school that I've ever had. I'm a senior in a smallER high school in Wisconsin. It's Fourth hour in my probability and statistics class, right before lunch. Of course we're talking about the probability of something happening in a certain situation. The teacher is going over examples such as the odds of pulling a certain kind of baseball card out of a pack, getting hit on your way to the airport, and so on and so on. I was about 2 seconds away from falling asleep right in my desk when I hear the words "Dust Devil". I thought he was referring to the vacuum...but of course being the avid player I am, I immediately got a chuckle out of it. Then right after "Dust Devil" was said he said "The odds of getting a Dragon Chain from this animal is one in so many thousand kills". Everyone else in my class was pretty much oblivious to the whole situation but I about dropped my jaw right onto the floor. My teacher, my tennis coach, and father of a member of my buddy on our drumline plays runescape. He's getting close to 45 or 50 and I could NOT believe it. I just thought I would share the story with you all and I'm assuming there's a few other stories like this out there! : "He could climb to it, if he climbed alone, and once there he could suck on the pap of life, gulp down the incomparable milk of wonder."
November 7, 200718 yr So your entire class plays RS? Lucky son of a- Runescape player since 2005 Ego Sum Deus Quo Malum Caligo et Barathum
November 7, 200718 yr Author Haha no, no one but me in that class plays it. And I would NEVER talk about RS in school. The first rule of fight club: Never talk about Fight Club. "He could climb to it, if he climbed alone, and once there he could suck on the pap of life, gulp down the incomparable milk of wonder."
November 7, 200718 yr That's weird :o Nobody asked "What's a Dust Devil/Dragon Chain?" :lol: I would be really surprised if my math teacher said that, because he's like 65 ... :-$
November 7, 200718 yr I would never talk about RS in school because I will be labeled as a geek and a nerd... -.- That pisses me off :wall: That's pretty interesting though. I never had a teacher play RS. "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is."
November 7, 200718 yr You should ask him what his username/level is. :D ARENAscape: Baratus [AS] max hit: 166 with Moon Battle Hammer ixfd64 [AS] max hit: 116 with (untitled spell #2)
November 7, 200718 yr I get called a nerd and insulted in every way possible when I mention RuneScape.. Only me and two other guys at my school play that I know of. The tech support lady at my last school was a lvl103 though. :o But yeah, everyone expects that any modern game will have WoW quality graphics, even if it's programmed in Java. -.- I once shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.Pics or it didn't happen. I hate my generation.
November 7, 200718 yr My wife is a teacher and plays RS. She mentioned it once in class and people made fun of her for not playing WoW.
November 7, 200718 yr Yea, I heard 2 people in the hallway talking about it today. Kinda weird. But anyway, they are now on my "Cool List" Blog.
November 7, 200718 yr What is so bad about talking about Rs at school? I played on my college computers all the time and talked about it with people that noticed me playing. :? But back to the topic, you have one seriously cool teacher there. : The Internet: where men are men, women are men, and children are the FBI.First Dragon Drop 5/6/2006 -Dragon Med from Bronze Dragon :DFirst Barrows Item From Chest 2/20/2007 - Verac's Brassard :D
November 7, 200718 yr lol great story/teacher. i know a person on RS who is a teacher, she doesn't dare risk telling her students though, it would cause this type of hassle. 'Gimme all your gold or i fail you in maths!' ROFL Yeah...Some people just go out of their way to ruin other peoples fun.Sounds like Jagex to me...

November 8, 200718 yr My fiancee tells her students i play and gives them my name incase they want to contact me. She earns cool points because I play RS and have a 360, it brings her reputation up I guess.
November 8, 200718 yr Give him a mil or two and ask for an A+ for the quarter? :lol: ~It's Super Effective! (The Zaaps Blog)~My YouTube Channel, where you get to watch me go around and make a fool out of myself and all comp capersGuides:~Yeah I wrote them once~Suggestions:~Yeah I made those once~
November 8, 200718 yr My AP Chem teacher plays WoW, he showed us his account one day when he was bored. He's like.. 50. And he's also Buddhist, but he's white. Yeah, no one but a few of my good buds plays RS in my school. Everyone plays CS (which I do too), SC, WoW, or DotA. Did you talk to him about RS after class? :) Ever wanted to find street prices of RS items?

November 8, 200718 yr Haha no, no one but me in that class plays it. And I would NEVER talk about RS in school. The first rule of fight club: Never talk about Fight Club. LMAO, haha love that movie. Anyways, its social suicide to mention runescape in a high school/college, and while i HONESTLY am a completely normal guy (friends, good grades, football and golf in school, snowboards, ladies man, etc.), i dont think ANYONE knows that i play runescape, excluding some kid that moved 3 states away from me a few years ago, but i think he'll keep the secret seeing as no one talks to him from my town anymore :XD: http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/
November 8, 200718 yr one of my friends mentioned that his grandfather played...apparently hes a doctor whos retiring in a few years so he doesnt have to do much... i play rs as school, but i never talk about it. apparently theres a couple other guys around school that are into online rpgs, but i dont really know them, one of them recommended firefox portable, which i subsequently obtained. 8-) 32,606th to 99 magic || 15,388th to 99 dungeoneering || 12,647th to 99 farming14,792nd to 99 range || 24,954th to 99 herblore
November 8, 200718 yr very nice, find out his character name and chat with him ingame lol. Maybe he's Zezima :P
November 8, 200718 yr I am comfortable enough with myself to talk with anyone who is interested in Runescape. I have discovered plenty of people in real life who play through this and it is always a good experience. I don't understand why some of you put a bad label on the game we all enjoy. :shame: [spoiler=Stats:]Updated December 22, 2011: Total level - 1442 - 170M+ XP , Combat level - 115Combat skills: Attack - 90, Defence - 99 (24.45m+ XP), Strength - 90, Constitution - 99 (16.42M+ XP) Ranged - 99 (13.32M+ XP), Prayer - 60, Magic - 99 (13.25M+ XP)Non-Combat skills: Cooking - 99 (13.80M+ XP), Woodcutting - 99 (31.95M+ XP), Fishing - 90, Firemaking - 99 (24.82M+), Crafting - 90, Smithing - 90, Mining - 85, Runecrafting - 60, Dungeoneering - 85
November 8, 200718 yr Author Yeah I'm pretty sure he's gotta be good at it...he's got like a 500million score on Bejewelled :shock: Major dedication there....that'd be so funny if he was a nasty pker, just ruthless :-k "He could climb to it, if he climbed alone, and once there he could suck on the pap of life, gulp down the incomparable milk of wonder."
November 8, 200718 yr if you said "runescape" at my school, seeing that 90% of the population there are huge rednecks, they'd be like "whats that", me: "a computer game online", "eh!? oh one of those thinga-ma-gigers mrs clark got on her desk? a compooter?" dead serious.... some people drive TRACTORS to school.... :XD: anyway, thats a funny story, i'd never expect that from any of my teachers Thanks to the amazing talent of Jopie211 for the sig!Finest Fist of Guthix Strategy Guide
