well I want to tell you somthing you " shady nat "

this is not about your behavier Because if so THen this Tickets should be given for the Mods and the Admins Then we wouldnt even have the Opportunity to take a part of it,So stop claiming that we have to change our selves to let Jagex Notice,Jagex Knows every thing about all of us and it doesnt need Such as this " Cool Project " to notice us.

In addition,I believe that this Going to be Fair as well as GOD :D ( just an expression )

Again I would like to Thank Jagex a well thanks :D

So basically these 24 people will get the same prize for just getting picked... as what other people have to win a competition for (get picked out of thousands and then win aswell)? I think that's a bit unfair tbh. I mean sure, they are community minded but that just means a lot of forum/player moderators who do a good job get invited and maybe like 3 people who aren't. My reason to believe this is because you said "we've invited some of you last year". last time a lot of the top players (both members and non members) got invited and some people from a known fansite. But anyway, I don't think it's fair 24 people get this year.. what other people have to win a competition for even though the tickets are rare

The thing I don't like is the amount of people.
I wouldn't want to visit Jagex HQ and Cambridge with 23 other people. I have a feeling that since Jagex will have to take care of so many people, it will be more organized like a touristic trip instead of something where you focus on 1->5 people.. maybe 7-8 maximum.
Maybe it's better for Jagex to do it for a lot of people at once, I don't know what are their actual intention (trying to catch future Jagex employers, or more advertising to induce players to be more involved in the competitions and in the game, or maybe to 'optimize' the Jagex trip by inviting more people per trip, ...), but in my case, I would hesitate coming.

Morning guys,

Evil Yakuza, Sorry mate but I'd have to disagree with you there. I don't think it's unfair at all and if anything, we've gone out of our way to make the Big Ticket as inclusive to all as possible. I do hear what you're saying that being picked from a draw requires less effort than using your creative prowess but I think the odds balance things out a bit.

Crupulus, we've three events in mind that are going to take place between now and the end of summer and so those 24 tickets will work out to be 8 tickets for each event. So don't worry, ticket holders will have our full attention! Besides, last time I took more than 10 people to a restaurant, they asked us not to go back. ; )

Ah, alright. 8 sounds good then. :)

Oh and btw, sorry for taking a place in your discussion with Yakuza, but you didn't really answered him. :p
Yakuza was only talking about people getting picked for their participation in the game, fansites, etc., while you're replying him as if he talked about the drawing competitions (it's drawing competition, right ? Such as what we see in the Players' Gallery ?)

To add my opinion, I think the drawing competition has its place as well as the video making competition. Different talents, but both are somehow linked..
However, I understand Yakuza's frustration if some people win a Big Ticket "by doing nothing". But I'm not really against that idea, and it's actually a reason that made me think "Jagex tries to get future employers that already knows the RuneScape world" :p. Some are interested in artistic works, some in the animation/video, and those last ones goes in the Player Support Team**** and stuffs like that :p.
Waiting to see a RS-related mini-games programming competition ^^

I wanna know what sort of competitions there are going to be, because, things like Machinima(Video Making) I and guarenteed several other people do not excel at it and stand no chance of winning, because the idea of seeing Jagex studios really is a breath-taking thought. I would just like to know what sort of competitions there are going to be, or if you can find out already, could you direct me to the thread with the competions on?

also does these comeptitions apply to anyone? or certain Combat or skill levels?
