26-Nov-09 Thanksgiving & Community Event (UNTIL DEC 7TH)

[Sir_Redhead]

The second clue insulted my intelligence......I definately overcomplicated it.

[Beaumonde]

Overall this event has been completely awesome, hope tomorrows clues actually require calculus, how epic would that be <3: /wish.

Highly doubt it, I would bet that the majority of the devs haven't even taken calculus.

calculus doesnt even exsist as a subject in the uk ;)

It took me awhile to figure out that Fred and the other guy each only did half, so they each would get half of the profit no matter how long it took them . :shock:

 

Good job Jagex. These are challenging, but not hard enough to where I would give up or automatically look for people who already did it.

It must be nice there.

[strilmus]

Now THAT'S puzzle makins.

 

Still got through it, but I wonder if they're going to hold back as much as they did this time on the last day....

 

Heheheh.

Only thing i remember mind, alcohol and wiped most of my school memories.

Congrats

Glad to see they stepped up the difficulty a notch again. The first and last ones were easy but the second one provided me with a nice facepalm moment when I finally figured it out. :P

 

Can't wait for tomorrow's clues.

[brunokiller]

What is the reward for this anyways.

[Aeon_]

What is the reward for this anyways.

A *cough* magnifying glass.

[Pinkbullet3]

A *cough* magnifying glass.

I understand that it's been 'leaked' so far, but how exactly does a magnifying glass relate to Thanksgiving? :blink:

It doesn't. This is just Jagex's first community event. I assume that the next events will give us more parts to this "Sherlock Holmes" set, especially since someone found a smoking pipe in the cache (along with the magnifying glass).

[Pinkbullet3]

I see... So do you think the emote will be the only thing that we're getting for Thanksgiving, or will the emote relate to this Community Event? If that's the case, then that Thanksgiving thing was nothing at all, lol.

 

I can't blame Jagex, though. I don't think they celebrate it in the UK so they shouldn't be forced to make it fancy. : \

[wioneo]

If I find a way to fill three jugs with wbter, it better work or I am going to sue Jagex...

You've done it wrong.

 

In that clue word 2, 2nd letter comes out as A or B

Just use the Waterpump by West Falador Bank on your way to the Gem Merchant.

 

EDIT: Or did Paw Claw solve that and I just misunderstood?

[Ra]

Wow I'm fairly impressed with this event, it not being a one shot deal.

I dont know if i ever would have got that second one. so good on ya's

[nerdboyxxx]

Finished the third clue, awaiting the fourth and the promised reward :)

[Youmu]

Too lazy to figure out what the first item was telling me (it's too complicated!). Anyway:

[hide=Items]6 Red Spiders Eggs

200 gp

3 Jugs of Water[/hide]

[hide=4th contact]"Head on to where the ground is granular and the solar spectacular, then quiz the fellow who peddle pasttimes to passers-by."

Who could this be? Anyone help please?

 

EDIT: Nevermind, it's this Faruq guy in Al Kharid. It says something about buying some tools for fun kind of thing.[/hide]

[Den]

I havent used my brain this much while playing runescape since doing while guthix sleeps without a guide. :P

 

Loving it, cant wait for the reward tomorrow.

[Naive]

So glad I played Professor Layton, that second item would've stumped me if a question just like it hadn't popped up in that game. Let's go #4 :thumbsup:

It's a community event, nothing to do with Thanksgiving.

Candidates,

 

You’re nearly there! You have the details of the final contact you’ll need to speak to. All you need are the code items to give him the go-ahead to share his knowledge with you. Get your cryptic-crunching craniums around this clue and you’ll be all set.

 

For your next brain-training endeavour, we asked our good friend Sir Tiffy Cashien to come up with a complex conundrum for you to contemplate.

 

 

“On one of my many journeys about Gielinor, I encountered the strange beast known as the Chaos Elemental. When I came across this swirling vortex of randomness it was holding a rather mundane looking chest.

 

“What items do you have in that chest?” I asked it.

 

The creature responded: “Its no Mirasol all Gentle cats can tilt red Romulans rear crease bulbs salt gate”

 

Thoroughly confused, I told him I didn’t understand. Again, the bizarre monster responded: “43 – 35 – 27 – 19 – 11… Use what follows to skip over the answer.”

 

Confused? By Jove, that’s an understatement! I was dumbstruck for a while, but I remembered my lessons in deciphering secret messages and eventually I cracked it! An odd assortment of items, but then the Chaos Elemental is a strange being!

 

Anyway, you’ll need three of the first item, ten of the second and the number you get if you take the first from the second for the third. Haha!”

 

 

If you can solve Sir Tiffy’s little puzzle then you should know what items you will need for this part of your test! Take them to our contact for your final set of clues.

 

Good luck, as ever.

 

Best of luck everyone!
