Well I myself couldnt take part becaus my pc broke on the eve of he weekend I was so annoyed. Managed to get a farm run and sell my supplies for a staggering 65m profit. I hope there wIll be another weekend. Well done to all who achieved their targets. I still can't help feeling annoyed of my cor*umstances haha but life goes on ! ;)

Much better than the declining bonus xp rate of the past. The 2x flat rate is great. I hope to see it soon again (maybe 6 months like the other bxp weekends). I just wish it was Friday afternoon to Monday afternoon instead of Saturday-Monday. It was difficult to really take advantage of it due to school and work, but I still managed to get a few levels. Tried to pull an all nighter Sunday night lol, fell asleep with 2 hours left until 2x was over. Could have finished off my last 3k battlestaves, but oh well. I'll save 'em for next time.
The walking lag problem didn't bother me that much since I was just skilling at a bank, but the thing that did bother me was not being able to log in because I hadn't "logged out from a previous session." When I did get the opportunity to play I made sure I stayed logged in because I didn't want to fight with the log-in screen for 10 minutes. Overall, I'm happy and it was worth it :)

I have been playing a long time, nine years, I don't believe I have ever seen an apology quite like that. Besides all the complaining about the lag everyone is happy and for the most part got what they wanted, myself included. Moving one pixel a second was worth the 92 summoning 99 mage/range.

I must say I really enjoyed the flat rate of 2x rather than a declining rate. I missed out on alot of xp on saturday but i still was able to gain 7 woodcutting levels on Sunday so I'm happy. As for the lag, I had none. Although, the "Your account is already logged in" was quite frustrating. Despite this, it was a great double xp weekend. Can't wait for the next one!

I enjoyed the "potential" opportunity for increased experience and I appreciate the apology from Jagex. However this issue wasn't exactly a blindside was it? I have been noticing the increasing amount of lag and login issues at least a month prior to the past weekend. So I appreciate the apology. . However i don't appreciate the obvious negligence to the problem.
