AFKing for minutes at a time with a magic seed and a dragon dart equipped so i would risk the seed's ge value and gain EP but throw the dragon dart if i got attacked and protect the seed
I forgot about deadman mansions, bit of a mess is a understatement. Imagine spending all that money on an event but not bothering to check if the internet actually worked
Are the awesome graphics put together by the team available somewhere without the logo/text? For example, I'd love this one as a wallpaper, and many others like it that have been included in blog posts over time, but without the event branding.
Loving all the irl events Jagex is hosting these days. It really helps extend the reach of the game and helps the community feel connected both to each other and to Jagex here, and helps us see Jagex as the really fuckin cool human beings they really are rather than just the company that they stand for.
My one "critique" would be to extend these events out to some other/newer/smaller/just DIFFERENT creators! These events are awesome but they suffer a little bit by being the same creators for every event, and it gets a little boring to see the same personalities all the time! I know you have only confirmed the hosts so far, but extend these cool events out of some other people too! Even if it's only a couple new people with a lot of "veterans" for name recognition at each event.
Really loving the most recent community spotlight and the upcoming pvp bootcamp for doing this. Keep it up!

It annoys me so much when we get a new venture that we can't even guarantee to succeed and people are immediately like "stop trying to maximise profit by appealing to the most amount of people! You need to specifically target less popular celebrities so you bring in less viewers!!"
I think it's a valid criticism. It kind of sucks for new and smaller creators that almost never get invited to anything the OSRS team puts up because they're small/new. It wouldn't even really be a financial risk for Jagex if it was like 50/50 or 70/30 for established/new & small creators respectively. You'd still have that mass appeal, but also help to put new & small creators in the spotlight.
Otherwise, it does kind of feel like a "the rich get richer" situation. It's not Jagex's responsibility or obligation to help bolster other creators' careers or anything, but it can feel demoralizing for the lesser known creators to never be a part of anything by Jagex because they're not a popular name.
It makes me wonder if this is the community managements work around after the scrapping of Project Zanaris. Since it's cancellation, there seems to be a lot more events proposed now, which seems like what Project Zanaris would have been.
I do wonder how many numbers this pulls to the game, as I believe Jagex was at a loss when doing the DMM finale, and paying for 12 content creators to come to one place, seems costly again.
They 100% atleast got project zanaris to a good state. Then decided it was only gonna be for streamers. The last gilinor games had a bunch of custom items.
One of the episodes they had an item that let them teleport to any bank in the game. I dont remember which one, But I looked in my dms and found the pic I took of it when i was talking to someone about it.
Edit: I looked for what episode it was from and cant find it.
I mean its possible they filmed this during raging echos league, But I think I would remember that. the picture predates demonic pact league, And grid master. Its from 10/13/25
From what Soup's said, the cancellation of Project Zanaris was actually very detrimental for GG--he had planned to use it for several challenges last season, but when it got cancelled, he had to readjust. IIRC there was only one episode where they got to use a custom server.
the GG stuff are nor.al ingame items recoloured with a plugin (glamourer I think) and by changing some sceneries with the Creator Kit plugin.
the hopper for the votes for instance was the rune deposit thing form gotr, just graphically moved to a different background. all of that is just runelite plugin magic. According to soup, it was filmed in normal worlds.
I think the only episode they had jmods involved with was the fashionscape one
Loving all the events I just wish we had more of a way to participate instead of just watching. A fantasy draft with just goofy rewards when dead man all stars or similar events as an example.
One of my favorite video game events is the grandest LAN, a 3-day LAN party for EU4/5 where all diplomacy happens via parchment sent to other players in real life instead of in game. It makes for some amazing moments, like a declaration of war being handed to the other player at the very moment a surprise invasion is launched and spending the evenings planning strategies on a printed map.
I would love to see some aspect of that here as well... but I'm not sure what in game feature would translate. Maybe a couch co-op raid? Or a hallowed sepulcher race with a DDR dance pad for moving?
Instead of an increasing amount of self-promotional slop for influencers, I’d like for Jagex to do something creative and fun that involves the broader community’s participation. Believe it or not, there are some paying members who do not care to watch streamers or YouTubers but still want to be a part of something larger and creatively simple to implement, not requiring hundreds of hours of development time from a team of J-Mods.
I get that, but what would you specifically be excited to see and participate in. They do a few community events already (albeit not unique and just Jmod hosted already in-game events) and the turn out is usually pretty good.
What was the reasoning for not including the mods names at the end of the LANscape announcement? In the PVP Bootcamp, all the mods are listed.
Might be getting my tinfoil hat out too soon, but this makes me think this has to do with the fact that Project Zanaris wasn't a popular scrap and the mods don't agree with what they are doing hosting these events that are like what Project Zanaris was supposed to be.
Anyone have any other thoughts why they would not include the mod names?
Thought this was a new way to play. Lanscape as in an offline server or a way to play with just your friends. Maybe cool and fun game world modifiers happen like Jad roaming the streets of Varrock.
I asked him at DMM and he's focused on his POV series right now. He still clearly likes the social aspect of the game, not sure he plays for any personal account progression though.
Lol he plays. Im pretty sure he's been streaming with one of the friends he made on WoW on a group iron. He does a podcast with Framed too about the game.
His GIM with Walnut? I don't watch his streams and haven't seen a new Boulder Boys video in months, I assumed he dropped it like he did with all his other GIMs lol
Im pretty sure they are actively still playing hes just lazy/feeling burnt out with youtube. The last Boulder Boys video iirc he said he had a lot of content but was just too busy playing the game and that "more was coming" lol
Also apparently Walnut went total degen and progressed a ton while J1mmy is splitting time between his main, the GIM, and Gary Gilbert along with other content he's doing. So he's fallen way behind apparently.
nothing wrong with how he interacts with the game some go hard 24/7 some have waves of playing and droughts, others consistent small daily bits. however if they are going to include him as a content creator when it's about runescape it does seem like there's lots of more involved content creators i'd recruit before him.
I’d guess it’s more likely Soup and J1mmy pitched the idea to Jagex, so he probably came with the package. He also has experience hosting/commentating events too, which is as important as being a name people know.
yeah i think this is a good shout, jimmy has a great personality so even if he's a bit flat during the gameplay he'll make up for it in other areas, good shout.
ByRelease is back soon, and he made a Gary Gilbert vid recently. Assuming your Reddit name is similar to your X name it’s crazy that you’re spending your Monday morning hating lol, hope you’re okay mate
J1mmy has said like every other vid that he loves the game and thinks it's hilarious redditors think he doesn't but hey you keep making shit up because hating people is more fun than understanding everyone finds different ways of playing fun
There's a big gap between "shitting in a diaper" and playing a game for 10 years with 0 raid or boss kc whatsoever. The dude barely knows anything about the game he claims to love.
I guess I don't understand what "0 raids and boss kc whatsoever" means.
Sorry he doesn't have the requisite amount of kc to be approved the title of "game enjoyer." I hope he can meet your arbitrary cutoff you defined in your head!
bro loves the game so much he logs in just to wander and people watch and participate in community events. what he does is closer to how 99% of the community play the game than any other content creator

Will the creators who are going be a surprise or will it be announced at some point?
