Mod William,
Hello, my name is lord of herb, and i have a question. that 200m prize that is on SoF. I have only heard of a couple of people getting this and everytime i land on it it jumps me to the next lame item on there. Now i dont know if you guys are scamming peoples real life cash but i have spent over 400+ dollar's on spins so far and i have landed on that 200m prize quite a few time's and it always jumped me to the next item. now i am getting tired of wasting my real life cash when i have a kid on the way and i don't get anything besides 1k prizes and 5k and xp lamps and pendants, now idk if you are capable of increasing the chances to get that prize by a huge percent. but i know that if i waste another 200 dollars on the first of december i will be making reports to my bank to enforce law enforment and the F.B.I because it is a Federal offence in the U.S.A to be taking peoples money like that and it's a automatic 20 years in federal prision. and i am not trying to be rude or mean its just bogis that i land on the 200m and it jumps to the next item. please help man increase the rates of getting that 200m. and if you say i can't do that well i have alot of people in my family that are very high rankings in the military. and yeah you mite mute or ban me. but please i probably wont enfore the law period but just trying to prove a point that only like two runescape players in the whole game actually got that 200m and have legit profe. all i ask bro just up the chance man please and thank you. :)

@ Lord of Herb: I am very sympathetic to you situation and I do not mean for this to be an attack, however there is a couple of things wrong here.
1: Why waste $400+ on a stupid RWT thing if you have a family that you will raise? Honestly, it's a real bad habit, and Lord forbid if your wife found out, you may be in big kimshey! But anyways, if you want to do that, go right ahead; that's not my problem, and I have no say in that.
2: Filing this to the USA's FBI wouldn't work for several reasons:
a: Jagex is a British company, so they couldn't do anything about it anyways.
b: If you did spend anther $200 on SOF and lost, it would be like calling the FBI on the gambling casino because you lost. Another words, SOF is PURELY based on luck, and it wouldn't matter if you paid *1M; that 200M isn't guaranteed and you would still have no right to win that 200M.
c: The US government and its officials wouldn't want to rant to an ally (like England) just because of some rants from some angry Runescape player; including myself and about all other players here.
Honestly, if you're going to blow hundreds of dollars on trying to get 200M (not to mention they're pixel-money), you might as well gear up and head to the Corporeal Beast, because, honestly, the chances of a Divine Sigil drop (worth around twice as much as that 200M so far), Elysian Sigil drop, or Arcane drop are much higher than the chances of getting 200M from the SOF. Honestly I have never heard of anyone who got that prize anyhow. I've heard of the sigil drops plenty of times, but never once have I heard of a 200M prize being won.
To conclude, please, it pains me to hear about a family that is in stress, so keep your money, get into your gear, and earn your gold piece in game, not by some trashy piece of crap I call "SORWT" (Squeal of Real World Trading)

In 2b: "You would still have no right to win..."
-What I meant was (and I do apologize if it was put in the wrong way) is that Jagex isn't obligated to guaranteeing you the 200M prize anyways.

Twice now I have tried the Squeal of Fortune and it uses two spins for one spin. I was quickly contacted the first time and given spins to make up for the lost ones but I can't even use it now because every time I spin it doesn't work right. They did say it is a known problem and being worked on but were about to launch out of beta and I feel this is just a taste of things to come. I wish I held off on buying a year since I wasn't aware of all the changes. I will save that for another post.

Not impressed by the graphics of the new SOF interface, but at least it is less buggy for me *ow. I will give you that. I also won't complain about the pendants since for some weird reason I never wanted to throw them out from my bank, and I'm glad I've been saving up a lot of recharge gems. Glad to know I can now put them to a better use than on the outfits in skills that I won't be training anytime soon. :)
EDIT: What I failed to mention before was that most of the pendants I had were already depleted - I used them a while back before this update. I just attempted to use my recharge gems on them. I got an error message saying they could not be recharged. I just destroyed all of my depleted pendants and was not able to reclaim them from Diango. I guess you have to win the pendants on the SOF again in order for this update to take effect. It is disappointing because I had a lot of pendants in useful skills that I would have loved to recharge, and knowing my luck, it will be a while before I can win them off the SOF again. I guess at least I still have a prismatic pendant on Summoning that I have not used yet. The recharge gems better work on it once I can use the pendant up lol.
