The current event in Lumbridge Crater.

The skill-off, where by doing the skill, we (can) vote to see which skill lasts the longest, and which skill is removed.

Members can do any skill, without cap limits - thus can vote for any skill.

Free-to-play, can do Cooking, Dungeoneering and Runecrafting, without cap limits... But they are capped to level 5, on Agility, Herblore and Hunter.

So which skills are going to get the most ftp votes??

Especially today, on the last day with two skills: Agility and Dung.
Members can vote for either skill. FTP can vote for ---
ONLY DUNG
.

Not exactly a fair system, when one set of voters, can only vote one way.

In the USA voters can vote anyway they wish; I see that's not a universal concept.

No, I did not call Jagex cheaters, I merely asked if they stacked the deck (vote).

I just think it was poorly thought out. Cooking is cheap and easy, runecraft has runespan, which is fairly afk, and then there's dungeoneering, a 120 skill that requires effort. F2p really only had one skill to vote on. For p2p, agility, herb, and hunter are all somewhat decent skills to train afk. Hunter maybe less so since high levels have butterflies. But herb is sort of like a more expensive version of cooking and agility is a bunch of clicking. What people vote on is the skill that they HATE the most. People dislike dungeoneering.
