Ok where do we go from here? It has come to light that Elder chronicles (random spawns collected from Elder Wisps AFTER completing Fate of the Gods quest) are counting as xp for the Skill Cup in whatever skill you like. You can collect 30 chronicles at any one time so that is about 40k xp at the start of a session . Do we go for it (many will not be able to) or ignore it as another example of a corrupt cup.

Brawlers = high fighting skill. Tectonics (runecraft week) = high fighting skills. Now the Fate of the Gods quest needed = high fighting skills. For goodness sake this is meant to be a SKILL CUP.

Edit - ok I have calmed down. I will lodge an appeal, but you all know what happens when I appeal - silence.

Edit - Have appealed that
1. It is xp given by trading something in
2. Can be used for any skill (so like jot, peng points etc)
3. Is a reward (& a massive one) for skilling done prior to the skill cup run

Now you all know what happens when I appeal - 'Hello my old friend, I've come to talk to you again,...'

Well we have survived another week. The in game skilling was the most straight forward part of the clan cup this week, least said about the behind the scenes politicking the better :) .

5th !!!!!!! How did we manage that !



Awesome Agility Team this week, Pest, Wilmer, Wise Thoth, Lesthe, Yana, Mouse, revenge, Heartburn and China you did us proud. The clan may not be aware of the effort put in that was above and beyond duty to get us a good score. There was the team player (* cough Heart*) who being without reliable internet for the week made a six hour round drive to get a good run in. And another (*passes ice pack to Lesthe*) who hugged the first aid cabinet twice to get a good score. Gentlemen I salute you both, you worked very hard to not let the Clan down.

Thank you to Wilmer and Wise for the wild runs, and to Pest who had their backs. While the rest of us were all clustered around a narrow band of xp scores you have lifted us all up. Will try to arrange rubber soles for extra stick in future competitions for the wild runners.

We have now started Thieve Week. The team have all been notified and those on Facebook have hopefully seen their options and are considering the best method / methods for their set up. Three in the team completed Plagues End quest last week which will be a great asset. Those who are not on fb please talk about the options in game. Wise Thoth is putting a few last minute test runs in, so everybody please don't rush out and do 3 sessions today ;) China has given us information which will make one method very much more efficient, thank you :D .

There will be a need for Clan help this week. Depending on the method chosen 1 to 4 extras would help the Skiller. So as per the last 5 weeks hold yourselves ready to help as and when needed.

Looking ahead this is the last week :D I look forward to doing nothing fast or strenuous for the foreseeable future.

Tigergal - still proud to be in W32 Rocks

New Cup Challange is up for the last week of the Clan Cups. Mod Maz writes -

Yes, you guessed it, acorns (we know acorns are members items and we were not able to change it for the cup but they are the only appropriate offering for the Queen of the Squirrels). Collect all the acorns you can by whatever means you want - beg, borrow, steal (from master farmers or stalls), or buy them. Hand them in to the Captain of the Guard in the Clan Camp*. The clan who hands in the most acorns at the end of the week wins! (Don't worry, Alf will give your acorns back after the cup has finished.)


So thieve those farmers, collect from your Kingdom, shake those trees. However don't waste any money on this one. Mod Maz, being known affectionately as the Queen of Squirrels is of course asking for acorns. Unfortunately the challenge was not fully thought through and didn't allow for the win at any cost mentality of some clans. Originally I thought, well the big clans have an advantage here, of course they are going to win. Unfortunately it is even worse, having picked an existing runescape item a player (sabth*) claims to have 7.5 mill of acorns in bank and of course he has just joined a clan. (Another has 100k, why would you I ask myself) Don't waste your money dear clannies - let us see how many we can collect the W32 Rocks way, the honest way :D

Hopefully next time this will be thought out and a new item will be created to collect. But hey lets have fun anway, a chance for everyone to contribute to the Clan Honour.

In other News, half the thieve team started the week's work a few hours ago, pleasing results in :D

It is over !!! We have done it, the Clan Skill Cup is offically finished :D :D :D (Jagex marked the occassion by booting me out of a run and aborting my skill session - fortunately I was half expecting it). Despite the newness of Elf City it was the most peaceful, non controversial week of the whole Cup (that is unless someone throws a curveball when the results come out).

Thieve Team this week was Pest, Wise, Wilmer, Mouse, Robber, Lesthe, Pyp, China and Antic - well done you carried the hopes of the clan well.

Special mentions this week go to Lesthe getting 99 thieve during a run and Pyp who completed 4 quests to get into Elf City, went up 2 levels and got 99 thieve on her last run - absolutely awesome. Thanks this week go to China and Wise for giving us valuable information, Robber for giving Pyp much support to get those quests completed, Tikee for avatar holding duties, and all those that surrendered avatars when called for.

Thieve Cup 3rd !!!!! HOW ON EARTH - WELL DONE GUYS !!!!!!.



To be continued as soon as I get another post up.....

The forum monologue continues ..... Well that is it, we have done it - survived Clan Cup. Regardless of the results we have come out definite winners. :D Each week brought new information about a skill training. I thought I was an experienced skiller but every week I learnt something new. Several showed they are strong team players, helping, researching, not giving up. Building upon the knowledge Pest gathered 2 years ago Wee Bairn, China, Wise Thoth, Yana (I never knew you were sooo competitive!), Lesthe and others researched, contributed, and expanded our knowledge base. Pyp must take the award for most quests completed just to compete :D , Heart the award for the most petrol miles covered to get a decent connection ;) , & many levelled during the weeks. A definite win for the clan was the return of 3 friends from Summer breaks, Pesti, Robber & Zidane it was good to have you back in time to compete.

Each week the skill teams have outperformed all expectations and there has been a solid group of helpers ready and willing with their time. The clan has united at its core to do what we do best - team work. I am not going to list the 23 strong Skill Team - let us just say - each and everyone did us all proud. And a big thank you to a solid group who helped make it all happen, holding Avatars, watching our backs, contributing information and cheering us all on - places would not have been half as good without you all.
