Amundogus2 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 12th December 2008 - Christmas Cards 'Tis the season to be jolly, so why not put a smile on the faces of your friends and family by sending them a RuneScape Christmas card? This year we have four festive Christmas card designs for you to send to your favourite people. Two of these designs were chosen by you in our recent Guaranteed Content Poll, so we hope that you enjoy seeing your ideas made into Christmas cards. The two most popular designs from the poll were 'Sweet Dreams', featuring Bob the Cat asleep by the fireside, and 'Christmas in Falador'. You can either print out the cards, ready to send, or save your favourite designs onto your own computer. To view the designs for yourself, head to the Downloads and Wallpapers section. Personally I think the 3 first look sweet, especially the Falador one. But what is up with the paint-made santa? :o Also, this was posted in the RS official forums: Miscellania Flatpack Update Mod Jon H Jagex Mod 12-Dec-2008 17:03:39 Last edited on 12-Dec-2008 17:03:51 by Mod Jon H Hi everyone, The following post is from the Content Development team and concerns the recent construction update. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The rewards for the Fremennik Achievement Diary included the ability to sell flatpacks as an investment in the coffers of Miscellania Island. The difference between the cost of materials for making a Magical cape rack and the value of the item itself on the Grand Exchange meant that there was a more substantial profit than originally intended available to players who have high construction levels. We apologise for this not being sound on release. Today we made a change, lowering the Miscellania value of that cape rack to fix the problem. In addition, we are making similar changes to the other flat-pack values to ensure that they can not be in a similar situation if their price on the Grand Exchange changes in the future. We believe this will leave the ability being more what we had in mind- somewhere you can sell the flatpacks you make where there is a constant demand to absorb them. The values for the items will not be high, as the large supply of flatpacks produced means these items have low value in the game. However, this ensures a constantly available return of some of money invested in the skill, should you choose this strategy. We would encourage players to be cautious about any new content which appears particularly good in terms of experience or financial benefit. It is safer to report a possible problem using the bug report form than to expose yourself to possible financial loss as some players have claimed they experienced today, or to possible penalties for bug abuse. The number of reports we have received demonstrates the maturity of the community who have recognised something inconsistent with their knowledge of the game, and been responsible and helpful in reporting it. Many thanks for your help. Our priorities today were to fix the problem and avoid it being abused further. To this end we had a fix live as soon as possible after investigating the reports, and avoided alerting players to content we were not happy with and felt could be abused. You may be reassured that currently we have no intention to take any action in the game against players who might have used this content. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you.

mervinator_9 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Falador one is pretty cool, the rest are a little lame but i guess thats because there to christmas heavy for me (ye I know im probably missing the point). Not sure Id like to give(or receive) an Rs card, but I still think its good jagex made the effort. Theres a fine line between not listening and not caring,I like to think I walk this line every day. Pinning blame on Jagex is like trying to put pants on an old man. You both know he needs them, but he'll just keep dancing around, avoiding them at all costs.

Cheefoo Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I'd have preffered them as a background, though. I just don't know what I'd do with a Runescape Christmas card.

Horatio666 Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 But the question is how do they compare to last years?

Rachellove Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 This is a great idea for my lil bro. I was going to sew him a strength cape to play in, but he won't have it before Christmas. :wall: I guess a x-box controller charger and gamer gift card will have to do. LOL I always give him something rs for Christmas. Since the update last year, it hasn't been so easy to give him stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[hide=][/hide] [hide=][/hide] [hide=][/hide] [hide=][/hide] Oo is that a wolpertinger in the last card? And overall I think last year was a bit better. But out of all of them the snowy falador one was the best I think. "There are only two strategies in war. Move forward or change.
