These capes are VERRRY interesting. I have enough and only enough $$ for firemaking 99[yews & willow]. but I don't have the time. :cry:

[cast3l]

i think you forgot to remember that some people have more than one 99 stat?

[callum6052]

woah... thats a lot of capes :)

[Holy_Monk]

Herblore is waaaaaaaay harder than agility...

 

 

 

What would the bonuses be for runecrafting??

 

 

 

I am Guessing you can Double your runes x'1 ..i think no idea that or you wont need a tiara or Talisman.

[Vaki_Sanake]

That's alot of capes, I'll far surpase the number of people with Fire Capes

 

 

 

(Lol, 29 capes to 7 people in one day).

[Rebdragon]

it will be alot more because people will work hard on getting 99 in a skill

 

No, not really. They'll all be pumped to get a 99 cape, then a week later, after gnawing away their skin to the bone from clicking, common sense will hit them :lol: .

 

 

 

99 doesn't get any easier just because a cape came out for it :roll: .

But reb, we're talking about rs here. Are people really that smart? :shock:

[marlin85]

You forgot quest capes. #-o

 

There isn't a way to check how much people have finished every single quest...

 

 

 

But there is a way to narrow it down. The hardest skill to get is 55 Herblore for Fairy Tale II: Cure A Queen. So at the very most, there are 58,669 people with a quest cape.

 

I thought requirement was 57? or can you use like a pot or something to raise it?

 

 

 

PS: I haven't done it yet because of that requirement. :XD

 

 

 

me neither :evil:

[darkashuran]

expect pc to start being overcrowded now lol

[Ghost-Knigth]

There will surely be more people getting 99 cooking and 99 fletching.

[Pionex40]

Add 1 more, I will have 99 Prayer by Sunday.

 

Bones are banked, I am just leveling Construction by 3 levels so 99 Prayer will be my 2000th level, also a friend (Caz Loves 2) will be getting a prayer and 2000th at the same time, WOOT !

[dark_ice]

Yes, its alot of capes but alot of people have multiple 99's so its not as many actual people getting capes. Some people are getting 2, 3,...25, 26 etc...

[knight10071]

46,321 x 99K = 4,585,779,000 = 4,585 MILL down the drain!

 

 

 

Another money drainer..., although it's a great update, but if a lot of people lose their cape... thats more money gone

[jwrm22]

uhm... the capes arent f2p so you could say 10000 less...

[primadog]

bump with new data and layout. please reply with your conclusions.

[FuBai]

keep the last graph on the same scale as the two above otherwise it is slightly missleading. Secondly it is impossible to calculate the increase in the increase of 99 skills - by that I mean you can't determine the rate of people clocking 99's now with the rate they were clocking them 1 year ago, thus making it very hard to conclude with certanity that more people went for 99's to get capes as a consequence of the announcment. It seems to me you would also need to factor in the number of new players in these calculations as a distortion factor (as the numbers of 99's may increase, but may stay constant per head of population, showing no real increase) but that would only provide real distortion over quite a long period of time (I think :ohnoes:. It depends on the increase rate of the rs population)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Otherwise interesting in two ways - firstly the increase was generaly along the lines I expected and experienced (although we can only vaguley guess what the exact rate increase was), and that you would choose to study it.

[Dalcyte]

very interesting and well done =D> , that really shows how that motivated folks.

[Tribal]

Be prepared for a massive jump in fletching and cooking. Overall though, good job finding the numbers and taking the time to do all this.

[haloffx]

Nice graphs, good job. I never thought about this before :P

[tripsis]

Interesting idea.. But I really don't think something like this could be very accurate.. Why? It doesn't take into account various updates that could make training a certain skill easier/quicker, and therefore attract more attention to it, and therefore bring in more 99s. Things like that..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But you did put a lot of effort into this post which is impressive :)
