Castle wars supplying tickets is a wonderful idea, but it should only be a set amount per game. Like lets say 100 or 50 casts worth of barrage/vengeance. This way castle wars does not turn into old fist of guthix.

I also suggest confining the mini game worlds. Like only allow mini games to work on 1-2 worlds. This would eliminate boosters and allow other players to find people to participate with.

Also in aid to get pures engaged, why not intro a reward to the minigame's shop that is a genie lamp that subtracts exp.
for example:
2 def = 83
2*10 = -20 exp

3 def = 174
3*30 = -30 exp

and so forth.

I only disagree with free runes for CW. This would turn it into Barrage Wars.
There should be refund of around 75% of used runes. This would be similar to ranging with attractor/accumulator.
75% is a little much.. Maybe 25% max. And you should have to pay Lanthus in silver CW tickets to unlock this ability.

10 silver tickets - 10% rune saving
100 - 15%
500 - 20%
1000 - 30%

I agree that it's to much because you get XP per every spell cast. I would say that 50% sounds right. "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape. If we let players start doing this, it devalues RuneScape for others. We feel your status in real-life shouldn't affect your ability to be successful in RuneScape."

"Should Fishing shops and Herblore shops sell packs of 100 vials, feathers or fishing bait to make it easier to buy these items in large quantities?"

Hell no about the herblore shop packs ! Think about Humidify spell ? And no for the feathers, the way it is now is good for the economy imo !
Why not make more empty vial with one molten glass ?

"Should we remove splitbark armour defensive requirements?"

Why ? That will be useless too, like an expensive armor for noobs.
Just increase the general stats to make the armor a little useful ?
Or add another good reward from the chests of Shades of Mort'ton activity ?

"Should the Zamorakian spear become a single-handed weapon?"

It will be a way too overpowered, imagine with Rune def...
Increase the prayer bonus and eventually a little the defensive stats !

"Should we add fighter legs to the Barbarian Assault reward shop?"

No.

And now, i think i'll probably vote yes to all other things ! Good work guys to listen us, love.

About the free runes for castle wars yes, ^, maybe reduce the amount of xp per cast and 50% or a little more should be good.

My Thoughts;

"Question: If you vote for the minigame reward shop to be included, do you want it to sell a rune pouch which will store multiple runes in but only take up one inventory space?"

Will this be limited to 'x' types of runes? For example one of Mind, Chaos, Death, Blood & 2 elemental runes? Could perhaps just allow one spells runes at a time to be stored.

"Question: If you vote for the minigame reward shop to be included, do you want it to sell books that teach you the Augory and Rigour prayers?"

Will these prayers demand any requirements other than the prayer level? As Piety does.

"Should we allow players to buy bandages which work outside of Castle Wars in the same way as they do in Castle Wars?"

Need more information on how mechanics would be applied. Could you Shark-Bandage in the same game tick for example. Could you also heal others in pvp areas?

"Should we allow players to obtain free runes within Castle Wars to cast magic at a reduced XP rate?"

Definitely should be either severely reduced or zero experience; and/or have a limited supply of runes to avoid abuse.

"Should 10% of your kills be translated into tickets at the end of each game?"

"Should you receive one ticket for each enemy flag that you deliver to your castle's standard stand?"

Both of these sound too easy to abuse.

"Should we allow players to get to Trouble Brewing without completing Cabin Fever and drop them into a lobby area so they can't access the rest of the island?"

Love this idea, would it be possible to add the Red Pirate Hat to the reward shop? Seeing as you can glitch it out of the game anyway...

"Should the Zamorakian spear become a single-handed weapon?"

Again love the idea but given the animation for the Spear's Crush & Slash attacks use both hands would they be removed or modified to allow for the adjustment?
