Hey Mod William, can you confirm Ironmen won't be able to do this?
I'm 99.99% sure we can't, especially after the vote, but just making sure!
Hey Black Archr9,
Yep - I just checked, and you're correct. Ironman accounts aren't eligible for Double XP Weekend.
Good! The whole point of Iron mode is to be a challenge. If I want extra xp I'll just play on my main.... (From a HC Iron mode player... ignore the lack or 'title'... Ive switched it off for more room in the in-game chat box)
Many of you have noticed that this Double XP Weekend is quite close to the last one in November, and have expressed concern that Double XP is becoming more frequent - even that it might become the norm**
***;strong>That's certainly not the case</strong>. We won't be running more than a couple of these a year.
We wanted to run this Double XP Weekend in conjunction with GameBlast15 - which is set for February 20th - as an extra way to encourage involvement in the charity event. Coupled with the fact that the last Double XP Weekend was a little late, this means that the gap between them has been shorter than usual.
After GameBlast15, there'll be no more than one other Double XP Weekend in 2015, and – should we run one - it’ll be much later in the year. To run them more frequently than that would make them less of an event, and nobody wants that.
Apologies for any concern this announcement has caused - hopefully this has gone some way to answering your questions.
Well we'll get all summer for dexp when enlightenment comes back. Dexp weekends are nice and we love them but this one is a bit too close together to the last one. Honestly I feel it would be best to hold off on another dexp weekend after this one.
But please, I and many others love events like May Roadtrip and Winter Weekends! They give good incentive to do minigames or skill.

Speak for yourself. If you don't want to partake in the ironman challenge, you can always have your account switched to " normal. I love this challenge we have.

Nothing wrong with a few bonus xp weekends per year. They're optional, and no one is
forced
to partake in them.
Yes you are, if you want to play Runescape that weekend but don't want double xp, then that's too bad for you because you can't ''turn it off''. Not optional at all.
