So, last season the tournament ended, which began the start of the new season. But this season both the tournament and the new season start on the same day? Some clarification would be extremely appreciated as I know I can't be the only one taking days off for the occasion.

Is George R.R. Martin going to get any credit for the concept of the Wintertod*? Love how the concept art even looks like Night's Watch builders facing off against a whitewalker.

Everything looks great however I have concerns about the treasure trail rewards showcased here:
Samurai outfit - Really good, I like it
Ankou & Mummy outfits - Whilst looking good they don't look like outfits, more like alternative versions of the NPCs themselves. If we look at other costumes in game such as the skeleton outfit it doesn't look like a real skeleton, just a costume a human would wear. I feel you should try to make these rewards more like costumes than NPCs.
Ghost - Please do not release this, it looks like dis-guarded bubble gum come to life. By all means create a ghostly outfit, I would suggest looking at ghostly robes and ghosts for inspiration.
Shark head - I'm really not a fan of this and I feel bad because I have no explanation of why. Perhaps because it looks like a bad frog mask.
Bucket head - This feels ridiculous however I think it would work out if you added eye holes. RIP Forums :(
Finally we have signatures in the surprise forum update. I'm Lewis, I play Old School & I've been playing since 2005.

Everything looks really good. But I have a suggestion to make. You keep saying you can make something better than Soul Wars, but it's been forever and I expect it will take forever since you aren't really doing anything about it or at least have not let us know.

There are lots of us who love minigames and it seems like it's all about solo playing (dead man, last man standing...). What happened to teamwork? Big wars between teams? Just hope you guys can work on this. If you guys don't want to put the effort into it, why not just bring back Soul Wars? Buff the rewards if you need to, but a lot of us miss the game. For me at least, and lots of others, it was the main reason for playing. In what way can it hurt players who don't want to play it?

Soul Wars died when EOC came out. We are really looking forward to this...

.i do not do clue scrolls because I have no intention of going into the wildy..So I am asking for a new type of clue scroll altogether that will Not lead into the wildy..
maybe make it so you will have to perform some high level skill for the reward or something.
.maybe make it the skillers scroll
or the Peaceful scroll.
one where we don't risk being pk'd.
You know pking is just not for everybody and we shouldn't have to be disincluded from clue scrolls completely..I am thinking a lot of people would like this..
maybe have a toggle where the player can choose if they want a specific kind of scroll only
like toggle..only normal clue scrolls
or maybe..toggle skiller and peaceful clue scrolls only..
IDk these are just a few ideas because it seems anything higher than a medium clue always ends up in the wildy
those are just some thoughts so everyone could do clue scrolls even if they don't wanna go in wildy

It's possible for you to do hard clues without risk in the wildy. A lot of times what I do is I'll take in the clue, a spade, and whatever is the best weapon I can use (Dscim, Whip, Sara Sword, etc..). At that point, I only have 3 items. If you plan on using the lever, I suggest something sharp (which is any sword). You'll have to find the location before you go in (so you don't need sextant/watch/chart). If you can't seem to find a good way to do that, just take those three items in first, find the location of the coordinates (write them in the chatbox without pressing enter), take a screenshot of the spot in the exact location, then come back with your clue, spade, and weapon. All you need is to pray mage when the zam mage attacks you and leave whatever it drops on the floor. Don't open the casket until you leave wildy. No risk. For map ones, you don't need to worry about finding coordinates first.

I can't say the same for elites because sometimes you need to kill the arma guardian with range.
