General FAQ

  • What's a big ticket?
    A Big Ticket is an invitation for an all expenses paid trip to Jagex studio here in Cambridge, UK where the ticket holder will get a chance to meet the people behind RuneScape! Along with your Big Ticket you'll also receive lifetime RuneScape membership and Jagex goodies!
  • How can get one?
    There are three ways to win a big ticket:
    - By winning a competition that offers a Big Ticket as a prize
    - By winning a prize draw (details of which will be announced before the draw takes place)
    - And finally we'll be awarding Big Tickets to those players who have lots of community involvement
  • Can a friend come if I win??
    If you win and you're under the age of 18, you will need to bring a parent or guardian with you (Jagex will cover this cost). However if you're over 18 then the ticket will be just for you.
    Don't forget you won't be the only person visiting, you'll be visiting Jagex with your fellow Big Ticket winners, so this should be an awesome opportunity to make some new friends.
  • What if I don't want to come and I win?
    This is entirely optional of course, so if you're picked for a prize draw and don't fancy coming, that's fine - just let us know at the time and we'll look for another winner.
  • Can I give my ticket away or sell it if I win?
    No, your ticket is only valid for you to travel to Jagex Ltd.
  • How many Big Tickets will you give away? And when?
    There will be a total of 24 Big Tickets up for grabs over the course of the year. We'll be running prize draws every month (again, details on these will be announced when they happen) and we'll also be running a few big competitions which will offer Big Tickets as prizes.
  • Will this cost me anything?
    Your travel expenses, accomodation and food/drink will be paid for - but as with any awesome holiday it might be worth bringing a few extra pennies as spending money!
  • Will I need any documentation to travel with?
    Yes, you'll need any necessary documentation to enter the United Kingdom, including valid passport. The ticket winner will be responsible for ensuring that they bring all of the relevant documentation to enter the United Kingdom from their country of departure.
  • Could I stay in the UK for longer than the trip you arrange?
    Absolutely, although you'll need to cover any additional costs of travel/accomodation.
  • Will I have to sign a Non Disclosure Agreement?
    Yes, you'll need to sign an NDA when you arrive at Jagex.
  • What is a Non Disclosure Agreement?
    A Non Disclosure Agreement (or NDA) is a form that, once signed, means you cannot disclose any details of your trip to Jagex (so, you won't be able to take photographs of new content and share it with people). This is standard practice.
  • How long will the trip be for?
    The length of visits will vary, but typically a few days, maybe more, maybe less!
  • Can I meet up with a friend while I'm in the UK?
    Absolutely, but you'll need to pay for any non-Jagex related activities.
  • How will I know if I win a ticket?
    We'll contact you via your RuneScape inbox.

Prize Draw FAQ

  • Can I enter the draw by sending a postcard to the box address more than once?
    Yes, as with signing up to members, you may send more than 1 entry to the address given for free entries.
  • Can I enter the draw by signing up to members and sending a postcard to the free-entry address?
    Yes, you can enter the draw using both methods.
  • What if I don't want a Big Ticket, but I'm entered automatically into the member draw?
    That's fine - if you're picked and you don't want a Big Ticket, we can pick another winner. Just let us know if/when we contact you. :)

Hi
Wow, I really like your new approach. It's great to see you're willing to give more people an insight in how the company behind Runescape works. I'm sure to do give it a try ;)
Thumbs up!

Awesome, after running Aus Nation help chat for over 2 year, hearing that community involvement of players has a chance to be rewarded too by visiting Jagex (and not just by making videos!) is music to my ears. :P
Fantastic news. I really would love that oppertunity! ^_^
