I'm not pro at the candy cane trick. :(

 

Also, it would be kind of cool to flip the godsword after you get a noob kill off of a guy in PVP. :P

 

Enjoy the trick while you can. It'll be "fixed" during the next patch. I think it's actually a pretty funny glitch to keep in the game.

SWAG

 

Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.

I'm kinda bummed out about taking off my skill cape. I feel that making us take off our capes was completely unnecessary. The event could proceed without taking off the cape.

 

Not sure whats the reason of "ghost dont wear capes". Ghosty robes from desert treasure mini quest included a cape as well.

 

By the way, the storyline sounds familiar, anyone remember what jagex referencing at?

You have to take off everything except your gloves and boots. WTF JAGEX? :thumbdown:

Don't forget about the ring, you can keep that one to :)

And your necklace. :grin:

And quiver! This is fun :P!

When ever you fail it replays the sequence.

I tried to do it today, but somehow with my new laptop I always lag out. Oh well. I will wait til the hype dies down and go in on the last day. Someone just remind me to get the event done. haha

A reflection is just a distorted reality held by glass and your mind.

I'm not a fan of having to take my members garb off. I know some of you don't think its a big deal because we can just go get members again. I only come on to do holiday events. If I were to want to just log on one random day though, I would like to be seen in the outfit that I like. I would be grateful If Jagex were to let Ex-Members reattach our items for a week or so. I'm going to miss my cape =(

Yeah, I would like for this idea to happen!! I don't want to take off my cape but the emote & cane...

Is it right that I'm having more fun with the candy cane + f1 than I had at the actual Christmas event?

 

But juggling a black salamander is hilarious.

I'm surprised nobodys commented on the new wallpapers, damn they're hot.

 

(Currently using the tormented demon one as mine.)

 

I combined the Corporeal beast and TD as I was unsure on which one surprised it took them so long considering the game cards with the same image have been out for months now

"A Christmas Carol", though the wardrobe to get to the "Land of Snow" could easily be a reference to the "Chronicles of Narnia" series.

From 'A Christmas Warble' - Quick find code: 15-16-522-60087448

 

FAQ A CHRISTMAS WARBLE

 

Hi guys,

 

Now we've collected your feedback and frequently asked questions together, Mod Edam (our festive developer) has given us all some answers. Enjoy!

 

"As a F2P I cant put my Skillcape back on after the event I have to take the cape off to complete the holiday event can you make it so that the event can still be completed when wearing a Skillcape or make it so that Skillcapes can be equipped again in F2P its not that we want to be able get a Skillcape in F2P just have the ability to wear it if we have already earned it and purchased it when previously a member."

 

Mod Edam:

 

We didnt realise that this would affect ex members but we wont be changing it. We dont want to discourage players from partaking in the event but ultimately it is their choice. Keeping your P2P items on your F2P is a restrictive game play choice. Further if we were to make this change now it would be unfair on people who have removed their cape to allow them to complete the event.

 

"I found it quite hard to locate my Imp especially when there are a lot of other players doing the event at the same time Im also pretty sure that people can stand on other peoples Imps making them hard to locate can you make it easier to locate your own Imp?"

 

Mod Edam:

 

This should get easier as the amount of players doing the event begins to thin. Theres not much we can do to make them easier to spot now that the event is live.

 

I find moving into open space makes it easier to see them. Also try chatting to NPCs as this should bring your imp to you. People who have the ice amulet from last years event can also use that to summon their imp.

 

"Disruptive players or other Imps can stand on the Ice Queen making her hard to see as she is an integral part of the event can you make it so she remains visible at all times?"

 

Mod Edam:

 

Scourge, the Queen of Snow and the four NPC imps should now be visible at all times due to changes weve made.

 

If you have problems finding your NPC imp look on the minimap for the yellow square. They should also be recognisable as the only imps not following a player around.

 

"After the event you can spin the cane and then switch items such as to a Godsword and the animation will spin the Godsword before resting in the hand. Was this intentional and if not please be aware that it is actually quite fun to do and doesnt provide any game advantage please leave it in!"

 

Mod Edam:

 

Ah, that certainly wasnt intentional. Were aware of the glitch and are working on a fix. However, this fix probably wont go into the game until the Christmas event gets removed. We hope you enjoy how it works at the moment, but this isnt how it was intended to work and could potentially create some graphical glitches.

 

"I have heard that you need to perform an emote from a previous Haloween event in this event can you still do this event if you dont have the emote from the previous one?"

 

Mod Edam:

 

Yep. You wont unlock the trick emote but youll be able to do it in the event. So dont worry about that.

 

"Why did you use the same graphics from deaths house? Or does it just look similar nice event but I did feel that this was a bit of a shortcut."

 

Mod Edam:

 

They are quite similar. I can only assume that Death and Scourge use the same interior decorators.

 

"The ice sculptures look so good its a shame they wont be able to be seen soon could you consider giving them a permanent home somewhere in RuneScape?"

 

Mod Edam:

 

They do look nice especially the Dragon. We will certainly consider it.

 

So there you go, thanks for that Edam!

 

We'll get you the lowdown on any other FAQs that come up. In the meantime, more mulled wine anyone?

I really liked this event. In my opinion it is one of the best christmas events ever.

 

The graphics were cool, the story was humorous, and playing with emotes was a lot of fun! Way to go Jagex! :thumbsup:

People who ask our advice almost never take it. Yet we should never refuse to give it, upon request, for it often helps us to see our own way more clearly.

Im using the TD one, they look great. :P Love Smelly's though. Maybe I should try combining some.

 

Was nomad updated with the Christmas event or before it?

 

I think he was updated along with the Christmas Update. Look out for him in 2010. :o

i officially hated this event, it annoyed me to no end. i'm also fairly pissed that they'll be removing the spin glitch for weapons, as that is far more fun than the event was. thank you jagex for making me log on for this event that wasn't even that good, also, the imps are [wagon] and annoying as hell too.
