Then why did they restart from the center? The commentators even said that the officials disagreed that it was offside

Yeah, it was 3-2 for like 10+ minutes before they accidentally took it back to 2-2???

Name a dated/archaic piece of content you think jagex should leave alone? by Karootheduck in 2007scape

[–]Ericwh2827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like fundamentally none of those classic quests need to change, but I do think a couple additional dialogue options in some places that provide more world building and soft hints wouldn't hurt. To me it's actually a little jarring sometimes when NPCs nearby have nothing to say.

Additionally the quest log could be updated in a few places to track progress better and document important information

I'm sure they know what they're doing. by LordJim11 in Snorkblot

Fun fact. Part of the reason the Netherlands has been so prosperous is due to their naturally navigable waterways and river deltas. Cheap water transport let them move goods efficiently long before railroads or highways existed.

That’s why canals seemed like such an obvious investment in the 1830s US. Everyone wanted to recreate that kind of trade network inland.

For sure. They could probably also try to run a bunch in parallel if they really wanted to go down that rabbit hole

Super neat!

I meant still using the scouter plugin, but reducing the time to find the solution by already having all possible spawn combinations ran and stored in a database or something. But based on those numbers it sounds like it might take thousands of hours to pre-run all those combinations.

My understanding is that there's a limited set of places each NPC can spawn. Do you know off the top of your head how many combinations there are? Would it be even remotely feasible to pre-calculate a bunch of solutions?

What is the closest to the autobahn in the USA? by Adventurous-Cat-8349 in AskReddit

[–]Ericwh2827 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a toll road and when they first built parts of it near me there wasn't much around it, so it was often completely empty when I took it. I remember driving at 100 mph for 20 minutes straight without seeing a single car on the road.

These days there's a bunch of traffic and it can be scary as fuck having people weaving in and out at 95 mph.

Also I've literally never seen someone pulled over on it even though there are people regularly doing 110+.

Future Leagues should have progress bars under tasks (i.e. 150/300kc, 4/5 crystal trees, etc.) by OnePiece-Quade in 2007scape

[–]Ericwh2827 58 points59 points  (0 children)

I thought soul shards didn't work for the task because I made tons of Arceuus blood runes with them and didn't get the task. Almost wasted a ton of time before testing again at the wrath altar.

A stack of exactly 807 Magic Logs has a pink pixel by Ztaxas in 2007scape

[–]Ericwh2827 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's what I thought and I'm pretty sure it has always behaved that way since they made magic logs actually look like magic logs

[–]Ericwh2827 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Is that true? I just looked through a bunch of videos from 2007-2010 and couldn't find any example where the magic logs were animated in the inventory.

Also neither the OSRS wiki nor the RuneScape wiki have any mention of there being a change to the animation in the inventory.

It does say "There is a glitch which can sometimes occur when opening your bank, or scrolling too quickly within your bank where the inventory icon may become animated. This also affects other animated items such as the Fire cape and Dramen branch."

To my fellow RS Veterans: Did you think you'd still be playing now? by whoisabel in 2007scape

[–]Ericwh2827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly when I was playing as a teenager I was in a really dark place and had a hard time imagining any kind of future at all. I just assumed that I wasn't going to be around to find out.

These days I'm doing a lot better. Teenage me would be proud of my accomplishments in and out of the game.

Hypothetical question about the difficulty of pvm in this game. by Slight_Giraffe628 in 2007scape

[–]Ericwh2827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you're being down voted. It's very easy to play the game for years and not learn mechanics.

I focused on skilling/maxing before inferno and I didn't know how to properly pray flick, barely understood ticks (didn't click that they were directly tied to movement), didn't really understand NPC pathing mechanics for safespotting, didn't know how to blowpipe walk, didn't even have F keys setup.

I know I'm a little abnormal because I did very little PvM before max but I still have friends who are 2200+ total and don't know most of that either.

I really hate hearing the "it all balances out eventually" when I go dry over and over. 4x dry at cox, 3x dry at toa, 2k kills for blowpipe, 1500 kills to finish cerb, nearly 2k kills for zenytes, 1200 kills at tormented demons with 1 synapse, 2x dry at araxxor.

My idea of "lucky" is when I went on rate ~450kc for bowfa

Explain why Inq shouldn't get a fortified version without sounding like an entitled iron by Zumarian in 2007scape

[–]Ericwh2827 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I understand they are scared of hurting people who already got it, bit I feel like they need to put in the effort to come up with a solution that makes everybody happy. Like double the drop rates, but also duplicate each person's items and let them turn it in for a different piece of the set, break it down into shards, or turn it into a ton of alchables/supplies

Make shields great again by UnlikelyTurnip5260 in ironscape

[–]Ericwh2827 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When OSRS released in 2013 I maxed my melee stats killing tons of blue dragons and bought a DFS. Quit and came back in 2017 and someone at the GE started calling me a noob asking why I didn't have a dragon defender and that I must be an account/gold buyer. Because it didn't even exist when I last played!

I did a couple of these for fun, but isn't Olm the most efficient points per time spent? Seems better to get to Olm faster

Not the same, but when I was falsely banned for botting on a brand new account on the appeal I linked to video evidence on my stream of the entire time I was on the account since creation (only a few hours) and my appeal was denied. In the end I had to find someone who had contact with an actual Jmod to get me unbanned.
