March 23, 201016 yr Not even an update yet today and its 3.20 GMT... <_< 1593th to 99 Farming - July 08.
March 23, 201016 yr Many schools are on spring break around me in my region of the USA. I think it would be a fine time to release the new skill, but I've been doubtful. I like the idea that Mod Emilee has taken the week off so that she can be the first to reach 99 on her choob account. :) Just because the USA is on holiday doesn't mean that all the games companies will stand to attention and deliver something. Jagex are British, so therefore they'll base themselves on the British holiday's not American IMO, otherwise most people will just think they're selling out and becoming an Americanised British company and I'd really hate that to happen. This is the last week of school/college/uni for pretty much everyone in the UK so therefore after next week will be prime time; however the Easter event will come then. TBF I'd say they'll co-ordinate it with the end of term for everyone, which is ~end of june usually. It's probably a much safer bet to release it then when they'll receive an influx of kids and adults playing more. My 2 cents: Wait till June and see. It's not that hard, and it's not too far away. tbh, I think which ever country has the most members, is the one Jagex will be paying attention to. Or, none of them at all. I have all the 99s, and have been playing since 2001.

March 23, 201016 yr Since when were Jagex OBLIGED to update on a Tuesday? FFS you lot are a whiney bunch sometimes..
March 23, 201016 yr I didn't mean that Jagex was going to stand and deliver to the USA, just that it was an advantageous time for a big update. (An aside, since you bring it up: while Jagex is based in the UK, I don't think their player base is. This must sometimes put them in an awkward spot.) Honestly, though, I'd agree that early early summer is more likely and a better choice to be fair to all. I did say I was doubtful about it being this week. :smile: Since when were Jagex OBLIGED to update on a Tuesday? FFS you lot are a whiney bunch sometimes..I can only find one comment from one person complaining. Is that the lot of us? Edit: Looks like it came today anyway. *******"All that is gold does not glitter..."

Or, none of them at all.Sure they have players more in the USA, but their employees are all British, they're a British company and it would be rash (and stupid) of them to suddenly just decide to go on USA times because the USA is bigger than the UK. Thinking about it I don't imagine the skill for at least 3 weeks. If it doesn't come out this week, then the next few weeks are going to be Easter related events. Tbh the prime time for the skill would be June/July since that's when we break up and exams are over. Kids have more free time. I edit for the [Tip.It Times]. I rarely write in [My Blog].

March 23, 201016 yr Congrats, new skill is fish flinging. 11th to 99 Summoning85th to 99 Runecrafting
March 23, 201016 yr TBH I don't think it will be the new skill. There is a fishing related update that is still yet to come and thats the fishing Guild makeover of which there has been artwork released a while back. Going with the 23/22 (30 days) pattern it could be possible that we may find out more about the strange power/wildy castle but it does not mean it will be released. I'm going with a fishing update(or at least fishy related could be another sea slug quest), if it was Mod Emilee who posted that I would think it could be a 'Red Herring', but it wasn't so that could be why its not very cryptic as usual. I was not that far off since the fishing guild has had a makeover. Do i win? =D> Thanks Gradeskip93 for my awesome sig!

March 23, 201016 yr So we'll all see each other for next week's "Is this week the new skill update?" thread then?
March 23, 201016 yr Sounds reasonable enough, I really am looking forward to the new skill. "Those who give up their liberty for more security neither deserve liberty nor security." Support transparency... and by extension, freedom and democracy.
March 23, 201016 yr Sounds reasonable enough, I really am looking forward to the new skill.I like how you posted this AFTER today's update was announced. How to Chin Nechyraels for fast XP and profit
March 23, 201016 yr What the bleep is going on on Tif, MXM returns to the gallery, Alduron returns to post there, Musky44 returns, Qeltar returns.The bleep?Addicts.

And they got dibs on the christmas cracker. :wink:
March 24, 201016 yr nope no new skill Thanks for the info -------------------------------------------------------------------
March 24, 201016 yr nope no new skill Thankyou for that stunning contribution. Honestly people if Jagex say (as they have) that the skill is going to be launched towards the middle of the year, I doubt it's going to happen in March.. :rolleyes:
March 24, 201016 yr Dang. I hate threads like this cause it always gets my hope up for no reason.Depressing.
March 24, 201016 yr The new skill is a lie. THAT is how it is unique and unlike every other skill ever made. Because its NOT a skill; its nonexistant! It'll fit right in with last years updates LK1 (skiller who has given up hope on any new skill goodness) this random comment brought to you today by ADD: ADD, bringing random entertainment to all for generations
March 24, 201016 yr The new skill is a lie. THAT is how it is unique and unlike every other skill ever made. Because its NOT a skill; its nonexistant! It'll fit right in with last years updates LK1 (skiller who has given up hope on any new skill goodness) Long time, no see. I doubt that the new skill will come anytime soon. It should come out during the Summer, though. It makes more sense to do so because it allows more people to enjoy and appreciate (slight sarcasm) the new skill. Being the end of March, Summer isn't too far away... We probably have about 3 months (assuming it is released during mid-Summer). SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.
March 24, 201016 yr I remember reading somewhere it was going to be released on Q2 May seems likely, then. It's more toward the middle of the year, and it's when people start their Summer vacation from school. SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.
