28-Sep-2010 - RuneScape Celebrates Oktoberfest - General Discussion

September 28, 201015 yr

When the Oktoberfest in Munich is about to end, we’re just getting started. From 1st to 17th October, the German community will host a multitude of themed events, parties and competitions. If you don’t want to miss out, dust off your lederhosen or grab your most folkloric Sunday dress and get ready, because we’re expecting guests from all over the world!

Here’s what to expect...

We’ll start with an opening party on Friday 1st, followed by a three-day event organised by our voluntary moderators.

During the first week of October (Mondy 4th to Sunday 10th) we will stage an international tournament in the Stealing Creation, where all communities will battle it out for the precious sacred clay.

During the second week of October (Monday 11th to the Sunday 17th) you can hunt down J-Mods. Every day, we will post one of our mug shots on the forums and you will have to chase your victim in-game. When you have found him or her, take a screenshot as evidence and post it on our Facebook profile. We will then honour the best bounty hunter with the most trophies.

In between these events, we also offer some smaller get-togethers, like a PvP pub crawl, a bear hunt and team fishing. As you can see, we try to cater for everyone’s taste! But if you think that’s all, think again! During the time of the events, we’ve also hidden a little surprise in-game. We won’t tell you what it is yet, but keep your eyes peeled!

To find out more about this series of events, visit the Oktoberfest Fun in Gielinor forum thread.

Auf Wiedersehen!

Check out my blog to read the Adventures of a Big Damn (F2P) Hero.

THE place for all free players to connect, hang out and talk about how awesome it is to be F2P.

So, Kaida is the real version of every fictional science-badass? That explains a lot, actually...

Three months banishment to 9gag is something i would never wish upon anybody, not even my worst enemy.

If it is, it's not open yet. We might have to wait until Friday when everything starts.

Personally, I agree, I'm not one for holiday events. But I think it's cool that they are reaching out and acknowledging the different culture that play the game.

The only thing piquing my interest is the SC tourney. I might actually go to that; I love SC. And I'm off on friday, the most boring day of the week. >_>

is this this weeks update?

First they came to fishing
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing

Then they came to the yews
and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews

Then they came for the ores
and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores

Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.

4th week is usually the 'off week'. I'm surprised we're getting even this. And if you read the Behind the Scenes, you'd see that they've completed the things they've talked about this month. So yeah, it's safe to say this is all we should be expecting.

wasn't it usual to have 1 new quest each month? (I refuse to read bts, as I like to get surprised by new quests which are the only reason I keep playing rs still).

It hasn't been that way for almost a year.

Gunnar's Ground was a quest, even though it didn't give quest points for those of us who had done Romeo and Juliet.

You're accusing me of bigotry, how ironic. It's a nice attempt at argument, but your responses are facile and asinine, if not diatribe. Who's arrogant now?

September 28, 201015 yr

Is this just a celebration of Germanic culture or is it like the cryptic clues? I'm not looking for a free item, but I'd rather not miss something because I ignore the RSOF.

September 28, 201015 yr

Will we be able to get pretzelz from stall and throw them to each other like frisbees? And can we keep them afterwards?

If no, not interested

Santa Claus is the character of Saint Nicholas and presents are the symbolic gifts that the 3 Wise Men gave to, well, you know. So, Christmas is about all 3 of those things.

OT: This looks... interesting. I'm not to keen on Holiday Events that combine community Minigames as part of it, I did prefer the traditional Hoilday events, but this could be promising! :thumbup:

September 28, 201015 yr

Doubt I'll be on this weekend as I'll be enjoying it with real beer and pretzels. Though, doesn't look like I'm missing out on anything, aside from SC. <_<

Not complaining, just not interested in the least. Sure the community will enjoy it.
