Limited Offer Chance Rewards: ewwwwwww.
Real money to add to chance rewards: greedy.
Shop that has absolute requirement of real money to use: greedy.
Whomever bought you and turned you into a cash machine, JaGeX, please tell them you're more interested in quality and making actually entertaining things. Not slots and a gift shop. (Plus, Membership used to be a "You know, you can do a lot more with membership subscription".....now it's "Get Membership now because we're telling you to and you should give us money! (Okay, how about this special deal for it! Just give us money!)" Stuff your greedy backers, please.)

I'm going to be extremely annoyed if this shows up next year as a permanent thing.

Well, looks like no dragon ceremonial set or emote for me.. Used the last of my guaranteed free spins & still need the pants. :\ Got whole queen's guard, at least.. I guess.. Even though I'm not a big fan of how it looks. (Edit: Just got lucky and snagged the hat off a random skilling ticket.. Hm.)
Most of my spins were stupid coins and exp! It really ticks me off everytime I see a cosmetic item and it lands on the right rarity yet gives me a lamp/coins. -.-
GRRRR!! Gotta try to not count SoF stuff as a part of a legit cosmetic collection. :c It's just... too much based on chance/luck.. It's really not fair, but oh well.

I DON'T believe that there's been a greater chance at winning summer items this weekend!!!
I DO believe that it's been quite the opposite...LESS chance of winning them.
Out of 20 consecutive spins i got 8 lots of 1k gp.
Never saw the beachball that i wanted.
Never saw the summer storm or sun rings i wanted.
Never saw the ice cream hat i wanted.
:(

Hello J Mods wide and far, wondering if the outfit pieces and other "limited edition" items will become trade able once they are no longer achievable on SOF also what do we do with uncharged magic amulets as they can no longer be gotten and i see no other way to charge them Thanks

@Mod Pips
My post maybe almost 3 days late after your post, but I do have a question even though this little promotion will end in a little over 18 hours from now.
Since the promotion I haven't seen either the Ice cream cone hat or Summer barbecue items on the SoF and I know that they haven't been removed nor have I won them.
I'm not sure why they're not showing up for me on the SoF at all since I haven't even won them.
Wish I knew why they arn't showing u, but truth be told I can't and they're the last 2 summer items that I need before they're removed.
*Sigh* Guess my summer item collection will never become complete.

Yeah, I'm seeing the dragon set as uncommon atleast... but Sharkfists? 25 spins later, had some double spin tickets, saved, free spins and a few i bought. I never even saw it show up on wheel.... I wouldn't mind that dragon set heh. but really, I do want the shark fists, any set heh. finshin* dragon set? yeah right, i'm still missing 2 peices i think, just chest and greaves. but eh. my luck. i get stupid coins or lamps. I love lamps for the normal spins as i can throw them all into agility which annoys me to level, heh.
but if i want something else. I would prefer somehting else. Up side is i did hit rares more then usual. Last 2 weeks i've gottne like 10 rares... before that for liekt he year and most of 200 paid for spins... heh. got 0 rares. so yeah.
I do wish we could downtrade prizes. lets say we land on uncommon, be able to pick up any common prize on the wheel, same thing on rare maybe heh. or make you get the level but have a choice of 3 things or so. Be a lot easier to collect these things which seem to either be pure luck, or spend a ton of cash...and then still Luck....
Spun for month and a half and all i wanted was shark fists. well actually i got the bbq i wanted so that was cool, now just need to use it heh.
Or maybe for members thos super items we get to choose 4 of for 1 time use things? give us a chance to choose some of these summer things as options

In about 75 spins I only saw the emote appear three times and that was all during this weekend. For increased odds and still being 1/25 to show up is absolutely ridiculous. Noe one can earn these items if they tried their hardest - I would know as I won the duo slayer competition and even with those spins and the saved ones I couldn't win the emote.

There was a noticeably less chance to get some of the items claimed to be raised in probability.
If you have items that are 'rare', double all of their chances to acquire, they cancel each other out(and just add a more random board not resulting in more rares), the more-common prizes still have the same chances of appearing.
If it's 20% chance to get a common, and you double the rares, you get 20% chance of common either way.
math = overlooked/under-checked
Please just cut the common prizes in half for the next weekend an retry this end of Summer thing.

MATH ARG!!! Probability & Statistics class turns my brain into an angry thing when I see major math errors.
