Do these people even go outside? "Ty" "ty" after a trade is not being social, you can't tell your mum you made a friend today off of saying that. Nerds suck.

Enough about stupid ol' dumb OSRS that nobody likes.

This week's DEAD CONTENT FIELD TRIP is Player-Owned Houses!! Long-promised to get a rework, but never a bride, player-owned houses are good for like 2 things: keeping your pets, and using other peoples' houses to train prayer. We're going to visit the houses of everyone who comes on the trip, whether they're two-room hovels or luxurious pixel-villas.

I hope to see a bunch of you and your gaudy-rear end shacks tomorrow night, June 18th, at 8:30 PM EST, a half-hour after reset.
I'd open up my house but I'm F2P now and haven't logged in this year I think.

So there's a bullshit treasure hunter promo going on. Five days, 15 pieces.

You need the full set to get the benefit. The lower tier is 5 pieces, but it's three seperate sets, and I doubt Jagex will allow mix and match. Mining success is increased 5%, for the lower tiers.

The upper tiers? 7%, but it makes living rock creatures unaggressive.

Oh and they count as golden mining suit and varrock armor, if you have them. Which makes that intentional change they did to the golden mining suit where it gets destroyed on death in a whole new light. You know, before they got horrible backlash and changed it back.

It's pretty much a blatant cashgrab. One that seems to be hilariously backfiring.

Houses don't disappear, they're accountbound. You'd have to destroy it by your own hand to get rid of a house.

Jagex is poo poo company. I don't really blame all the pubbies that went frothing at the mouth the moment microtransactions started, it was pretty obvious that Jagex would offer paying for mechanically beneficial gear the moment they thought they could get away with it. C'est la vie.

That said, bonds are still a good idea and they should have added them a decade ago. I would have worked my little fifteen year old fingers to the bone grinding gold to pay for membership back then.

There was like 1 thread from a "economics expert" that apparently said the trading post would wreck the economy but all it said was that the trading post would do X and Y and then defined X and Y with big fancy sounding bullshit without relating it to runescape at all. It was pretty much some 12 year old using big words to look smart without really saying anything.


E:I'm the threads biggest OSRS player? Thats not really saying much.

In defense of the "rah rah social" crap - way, way back a decade ago, long before the GE existed, I used to merchant essence for my runescape living. People didn't want to deal with buying ess 300 at a time and would pay like 20%-30% more than the average low volume market rate if you could sell them thousands at a time, and like 50% markup if you could sell them tens of thousands at a time. For a while I stood around the East Varrock bank and spammed that I was buying poo poo and would get a couple thousand and go spam at West Varrock bank that I was selling a large quantity for a markup.

Over time, I wound up accruing a list of miners who would regularly sell me ess and a list of buyers who bought the stuff from me regularly. They'd PM me buy/sell requests, I'd go trade, and we'd both be happy. I actually had a network of people I traded with on a regular basis and was RS friends with some of them for years, long after I quit merching ess.

Don't get me wrong - the GE is a vastly better system, I just wanted to explain why someone who wants the old system isn't necessarily completely crazy.

So I woke up this morning and decided my torrid love affair with money was finally over and severed completely.



Unfortunately this morning my construction level was also around 60, but it's important to end relationships you no longer want to be a part of ASAP. At least mahogany dining tables are quick.

Not to toot my own horn, but if I weren't busy Scaping for 20 hours a day I could probably make millions as an interior designer.



So, two hours of watching an orc cosplayer in a skirt crush bones to appease the gods and I gain a few new prayers.....



and a new highest skill!



Time to give these new curses a shot at rorarii!

A couple people mentioned Steam in the the clan chat this morning, and I was wondering if we had a group set up for anyone who wanted to join it. It looks like Dickdog and Velix are in one already, but membership is set to private and nobody appears to be active so I set up an open Steam Community Group, El GoonSquad.

If someone could let me know if the other group (located here) is meant to be the official one, I'll go ahead and close this one down, otherwise it's open to whoever wants to enjoy other terrible games with RuneScape goons. I'll pass admin privileges to Pizza Lady or whoever wants them when/if they join.

I don't actively use Steam so it'd probably go best to someone who does. v:shobon:v


Here's a quick reminder that Pizza Lady's Pizza Drop Party is taking place in 7 days, 7 hours as of this posting. As of now, the party will take place on World 117 in the Falador Party Room. I just got done testing to see if announcements are still a thing by dropping 1 mil and 1 gp into the drop chest, and I was able to get all but 16 coins back without any pubbies swarming in (one came running in then ran back out, but no one came). So on the off chance that pubbies do happen to notice (I chose 117 because it's relatively quiet, but if anyone wants to suggest an even quieter world I'm all ears), we'll do the party in rounds.

As it is, there's at least 300 unique items and thanks to generous goon donations, its value is now approximately 70 mil, if not more, and should continue to grow as I continue to gather items. I'm almost tempted to get rid of some of the more useless drops because the party room will divide up drops (I had to get my 1 mil back from at least 20 different balloons) so who knows how long one round could take, especially dependong on goon turnout? Because Jagex is :jagex:, the citadel party room doesn't do drop parties. But as it stands, I'll probably need a few volunteers who will help me take stuff to the party room, and others are encouraged to bring their own stuff to drop.

If we do end up getting crashed, we'll retreat to a player owned house or the clan citadel and simply do the classic style drop party there, but for now, suggestions on whether to reduce some of the filler drops or not would be great.

For those who don't know how the party room works, you deposit a bunch of stuff into the chest. Once you do, pull the lever for 1k and balloons come raining down. No balloon actually 'has' the item, but it's a chance at getting an item spawn, with the items divided up so that 10 mil might be broken up into 15 gp, 100k, 25k, etc. Once the balloons start to despawn, any items that weren't obtained remain in the chest to be 'dropped' again. With this in mind, drops like 58 bronze throwing axes might end up being a poo poo drop for more than just one goon (if we have to resort to doing it the classic way, this won't be an issue).

The second week of Minigoons is a wrap! Soul Wars (unsurprisingly) fell through, so me and a group of 3 strong goons braved Heist, which is perhaps the most bland minigame in existence. That being said, this minigame brought out the parts in us that we refused to believe existed. I saw myself change in prison

I helped Kari accept who she really is

and Honey outed himself as a furry.


A decent minigame, but I will never understand why Jagex continues to push out minigames in the year of our lord and savior 2014. Next week's minigame is Kari's nerd party for dorks (you're welcome m'lady) and the week after we'll just do Burthrope Games Room or something
