myriad902 Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Yesterday a Mysterious Man appeard and gave me a strange box... I didn't open it for a second, when I looked back at my inventory... holy... there was 10 of them lol. So I waited a second, yay now there another one. It spawned one in my inventory like every couple of minutes. When I used one, it would just make another one but it wouldn't give me anything. I took a screenshot of my char with a full inventory of strange boxes. :shock: Well, it wasn't giving me anything so I had to drop them. Well I had to get the answer right otherwise it would make another one. So I answered 27 boxes (how boring) then on the last one I got 640 gp, yay! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow93 Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 sadly i think the autoers make their programs do the boring stuff (clicking on rocks to mine) while they watch tv or chat with friends while on comp, and once they get a random event they click with their own hands to deal with it, then go back to autoing...

Kiara_Kat Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 From the Random Events Guide here on TIP.it: Strange Boxes Also given by the MOM. If you're paying attention, you might even notice him saying "Here, take this!". Click on the box and answer a simple question regarding the colours and shapes on the box. If you get the question right, you'll receive some gp or a gem. If you ignore the box or answer the question incorrectly, the box will duplicate, filling your inventory until it's full. If this happens, you'll have to open each one and answer the question; you can't bank the boxes or drop them. You'll only get the reward once you've answered them all, and you'll only get one reward for all of them, not one reward per box. Remember, the SEARCH button is your friend. Use it!

mixand Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 how come ur guide has nothing about the frogs? "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel AdamsMy new site.

Klaidas Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I have no idea why they dont upload the guide for so long :?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiara_Kat Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 how come ur guide has nothing about the frogs? and I have no idea why they dont upload the guide for so long The information on the new events has been updated to the guide, and the revised version will be available for viewing shortly. As far the time it takes to update a guide, here at TIP.it, we believe in updating QUALITY information to a guide, and making available on the site only once we're sure the new information it contains is accurate, and as complete as possible. Would you rather wait a couple of days, or would you prefer using a guide that's full of incorrect and bad information? Bad advice can get you killed, mate. When Jagex releases a new update, they do NOT provide details of how the new things works. They only give out the sketchiest and barest of information, so as not to spoil the surprise for players. To update a guide, you need to find out all the details, get pictures, write the update, and code the guide. If we had magic wands, we would be able to provide updates as soon as an update was released by Jagex. But, we DON'T have magic wands, and we have to do things the hard way. Also, you need to remember that this site is run by volunteers, and we have other commitments we need to live up to (like life???) -- most of us are college/university students or people working full time, and we work on this site on a part-time basis when time allows. By the way, the revised Random Events guide has been ready for some time now. It's just a question of synching the files and updating the revised version to the site -- which one of the admins must do. And with the recent move to new server and summer holidays in full force, there is a shortage of admins that can do the file transfer. So please be patient, we're doing our best. In the interim, there is no shortage of posts on the "new" random events, especially in the General P2P forum. Use the "Search" button. That's what it's for. And BTW, if you can find detailed information on the new random events in guide format (not in their forums!) at any other fansite, I'd be VERY surpised indeed.

I dont see that, you just copy-pasted it from runescape website (the new events) the old event guides are really cool, but the new ones not really :/ Excuse me???? Well now I'm offended AND insulted. Did you even READ the guide? Some of the basic information about the new events, yes, was taken from the RS site, but the pics are our own, as are all the details. Is there any information about Bob the Cat on the RS site? No. What does the RS site say about the evil chicken's combat level or his type of attack? Nothing. Does the RS site say WHAT KIND of clothes the Freaky Forester gives you, or what happens if you ignore him? No. And the RS site does not give any information about what happens when you ignore the frogs, either. We've also included information about the rewards you get from the frog event as well as the others. There isn't one word in the RS Manual about what the rewards consist of. So before you go and say that all we did was "cut and paste" from the RS Site, check your facts. And if our guides aren't useful to you, or if you feel that they're just not "quality" enough for you, then why don't you submit some information for them instead of complaining? And BTW, take a moment to visit the other fansites before you slam our Random Events Guide update. How many of them have up-to-date information on the new random events? None. And that's not counting the sites that don't even have a random events guide. I'm sorry for blasting, but it really irritates me when people say our guides are not "quality" when it's obvious they don't even take the time to read the guide carefully. It's a slap in the face and is pure ignorance. Remember, the SEARCH button is your friend. Use it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
