Mod Sabre just loves New Year’s Eve. In fact, he’s not stopped talking about it for about a month now. So, we’ve set him a challenge to put his love of New Year celebrations to the test - to see in the New Year in each and every time zone around the world!
To our surprise, he accepted and so for all of our entertainment, Mod Sabre will attempt to celebrate New Year’s Eve 39 times in just 24hrs.
It’s a tall order to put it mildly and so we demand proof! That’s why to succeed Mod Sabre must be logged into RuneScape every time a clock strikes midnight throughout the world.
If you’d like to witness a grown man cry then you can find more details and track his progress on our
Facebook
page, on
Twitter
and here in this thread. And if you want to keep him company, see in your new year with him or just point and laugh, you can join him on a RuneScape world near you. See below for details.
Will Mod Sabre survive this ordeal?

Heh, good luck Mod Sabre. I'll be sure to bring a watering can so that I can water my lawn with your tears.

Most boring way to celebrate the new year ever.
Instead, he should have to take a shot 3 times each New Year to celebrate.
You do the math.
Now THAT'S a way to celebrate!
