Interesting couple of hints given today.

We had ghost at Ice Mountain, teleporting at :37. The next hint given was for Feldip Hills (near some ogres) but I wasn't able to locate it (water loving ghost was my guess).

Based on the time of the previous teleport I started spamming Chuck at :47 for hints and got one at :51 for 'Between Fremmeniks and Barbarians'. figuring it would be lost to sea before I could find it, I didn't search but started spamming Chuck again, figuring teleport would be between :57 -:58.

At :57 I got a hint for a penguin 'located on an island, etc.' I was confused at first because the hint didn't match the one usually given for Entrana. Then I realized the 'etc' at the end of the clue might mean that the previous penguin had drifted across the water to end up on Etceteria island. It turns out that this is actually the hint for the Miscellania bush.

Though ghost doesn't usually spawn on Misc/Etc, maybe the hint could be added to the first page with the others with a note that it may be a drifter from an earlier spawn.

Just a thought-

We've determined that a 34th 2pt penguin location has been added. It could trigger a brand new clue.

If someone is going to Chuck for clues immediately after an update or Reset, and reports a new clue - or even the "somewhere in Runescape" clue - it's likely to be the ghost at the new location.

Of course, there's a 1 in 68 chance of that happening, but even those odds mean it happens on several worlds every week.

Todays big changes in the southern end of Kharidian desert due to opening of Menaphos and changes in Sophanem have also affected penguins.

One of the roaming southern desert penguins, the one that used to spawn just nw of old Sophanem gates, is now spawning inside new Sophanem. New spawn is far south at the divination training area.
Also the old inside Sophanem penguins spawn area is now under the river, so we will get a new spawn location to it too.

Penguin on that area used to activate somewhere in Runescape -clue, but after about 70 contact npc -calls to Chuck, he didn't give a single somewhere in Runescape, but many in the southern desert -clues. As there are also ghost spawns in southern desert, it is possible that some of the clues were activated by a ghost peng, but defenitely not all of them.


So, one more somewhere in Runescape area is most likely wiped off the map.


Edit -- changed sw to nw as it should be. Typical, lol.

This weeks
Lletya penguin
and last weeks discussions of
west of Ardougne, in the hills
clue for possble
ghost
prompted me to test the most eastern squares in
Lletya
.

Result was a bit unexpected.

Instead of
near the pointy-eared ones
or
west of Ardougne, in the hills
Chuck told me there is a penguin
somewhere in RuneScape !!!


Looking from the map I noticed that the most eastern rows in
Lletya
are about in the same longitude as used to be the former
somewhere in RuneScape
stripe between
near some pointy-eared ones
and
north of Ardougne
before it was deleted.

With the recent found it seems that the deleting took place only in the northern parts of
somewhere in RuneScpe
stripe around current
World Gate
, but not in the south.

Somewhere in RuneScape
clue gets active only when
Lleya peng
is on a row of
2'20'' W
.
