pal2002 Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I'd like to remind jagex that they haven't won the golden joysticks yet .... And yet they have already made a celebratory item..cheeky bastards. I would prefer even to fail with honor than to win by cheating - Sophocles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Lord Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I hope they give us the scythe then realize they didn't actually win. SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troacctid Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 I want to know what happens to RuneFest attenders. We'll be at RuneFest when this is happening.I strongly suspect that is the point.

The Dark Lord Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Maybe the sock mask would be a Runefest-specific reward? I'd imagine that the golden scythe will be given out to everyone like the golden hammer was given to everyone when Jagex won the Golden Joysticks thing.

Saradomin_Mage Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 The Runefest specific item is some hood with the logo on it, so I don't think the sock mask/golden scythe will be specific to Runefest attendees. In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Again, I ask: What is this October 29th event?A performance-type thing in Death's citadel theater, I think. 2PM BST/GMT/whichever is in effect at the time.Better [bleep]ing not be. I go clubing the night before for my 21st and the event would be 5AM next morning. It's bad enough I can never goto TET events and TETAU has died during and since my time, but I'll be damned if Jagex pulls this on Aussies.

Unfortunately for Australia players, the performance *is* at that time. To be honest, I wish they had a second event at Death's citadel for players who aren't American or European, but they seem to forget or not bother. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blyaunte Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Some people argue that stuff like the golden scythe, squirrel ears, easter carrot was released for all the whiners who wanted the scythe, bunny ears and rubber chicken respectively. I'd like to point out that not re-releasing the scythe, bunny ears and rubber chicken is just catering to whiners who want to feel special and have a sense of entitlement. Nailed it!

Robert_R Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 It seems a little strange to me that they would make an item to celebrate something they haven't won. 9 A.M. on a Saturday... And I'm going to be at my hunting camp on the 29th. Sounds like it's very unlikely I'll make it to this event. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred_S Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Lets hope the events start off at that date (like an additional holiday event) and lasts for 2 weeks more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheefoo Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Either they release the scythe for the Golden Joystick rewards, or perhaps at the 29th event. Not sure about the sock mask, maybe that'll be at the 29th event too. Or these will both be Runefest exclusives and 99.9% of RS players are very sad.

Kaida23 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 It seems unlikely that what ever is happening will be a one-time only thing. Especially if they'll be giving away an item. They learned their lesson about that years ago, that's why holiday events now span two weeks instead of a specific time on one day. The current Jagex heads wouldn't risk upsetting that many paying customers. 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...

Urza285 Posted October 20, 2011 Author Share Posted October 20, 2011 What are the golden scythe and sock mask items? Are they for RuneFest? Death: No comment. Check my note on The Horsemens noticeboard. Mod Srowley: All Ill say is that youll find out more about them when the content theyre attached to is released.

Fawful Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I have a 2003 Scythe myself, and I have no problem with the Golden Scythe coming into existence as long as it isn't a blatant rip off of the 2003 scythe. However, if the Golden Scythe turns out to be a rip off of the 2003 scythe, I will be barking for a while, and not the bark you find on trees.

Kirschen Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Yes, at 2 PM BST, so it's about 8 am for me (EST). Unless I misread the time conversion. Anyone who isn't a morning person or has bad luck will either make it late or miss it entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blutters Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 What world will this specific event be on?Death's citadel may look like a citadel but it doesn't operate off of a shard world like the real ones do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirschen Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Who knows. I think Jagex will do things via NPCS or something. Or the theatre is a shard world itself, but that might be trouble with the masses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who isn't a morning person or has bad luck will either make it late or miss it entirely. I think est is still -5 bst, so wouldn't that make it 9 am for est'ers? I bet they did it slightly early to help keep the crowds managable. I still think a ton of people will try to be there, and it will be crazy populated. I am just thinking of alpha base last year when we had a good 300-500 people at the boars head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
