    Interface built in-game on that pic with another button - "Rankings". Would rank everyone in order of how many slots they've completed. It would show their board and highlight the boxes they've completed as white. Does not order in patterns. Can see how your competitors are performing.

    I think having random players poses an even bigger set of issues vs forming your own team. You wouldn't want your GIM team to be composed of random players, right?

    No? You can make new friends. You'd only be opting in to this if you wanted to, it's optional. It's not like your trading amongst yourselves like a GIM. Scam issues won't arise. The only issue I see is if someone in the group gets burnt, but in my opinion, that's not a good enough reason to say no. If it was, GIM would never have been created.

    We've currently opted out of team bingo for a few reasons, some being:

    1. It isn't fair for solo or new players to get outmatched by a few teams that are online 24/7, especially those in a clan that are highly efficient (standalone).
    2. We want to avoid another GIM fiasco of teams requesting to have members removed for inactivity or swapped out with another player. Administrators are already overwhelmed with GIM related requests and there were a handful of team issues with the 1st staff hosted bingo.

    It's something we can brainstorm more about in the future, but for now we wanted to start out with a few solos.

    To address the first point, you could have a system. The player will firstly opt in if they want to play bingo or not. Next, they can choose if they want to do it with people they choose, random people or solo. Doing it with random people will put you in a pool of players. 24 hours before the bingo starts, it will pick the teams and globally announce "teams have been picked, check the bingo board for your team." Team sizes of 3 would be perfect since it wouldn't be too small or too big. Once they are picked, you would go to the board and the team that you are players you are chosen to be with will be highlighted. 

    Now people will be able to have their teams picked randomly without having a full disadvantage. The 24/7 part is not a good argument, the entire point of bingo is to win by playing the game. The same thing could be said for any bingo, including this 1. If you want to win, you have to put in the effort or get lucky of course. That's another reason why I suggested leagues trophies as rewards. Everyone gets something, even a participation reward instead of nothing. Alternatively, you could have a point system, where points can be spent after the bingo is over.

    After the bingo event has started, the pool part of the event would not work anymore since it would be weird to have a random player join in your team a couple days after the event has started. However, you can join the bingo as a solo player or make a party for anyone of your friends to join you (invite only).

    Along with this, you could have a clan system incorporated where you can talk to any of your group members in a group chat, whilst also being in another clan chat e.g. support.

    We're giving a player title unlock already, which is essentially similar to a trophy. It shows you have won a bingo pattern in one of the past events.

    Idk I personally prefer the trophy, just looks cool. Honestly wished we had custom titles too

    Only negative on limited cosmetics is that it usually ends up gathering dust in one of the eco holder/gambler banks.

    Got a better idea. Untradeable item given every Bingo. Leagues trophies. Everyone who participated gets something. The better you perform, the higher the tier.

  6. Should've done a discontinued cosmetic from one of the holiday events as a prize too. Ingame scroll prizes is a bit boring and stale. Also, if it gets a lot of popularity, should add team support with OSRS/IRL prizes similar to Zaros DMM.

  7. Should be herb skillcape perk ngl, honestly most of the skillcapes need a rework to their perk of some sort (some are fine). Can nerf max cape to only include like 3-5 perks instead of all at once. Some skill capes are dead content, should actually have some use post 99 imo. Can even introduce 200m xp capes 

  8. Shows how to no prep cox easily on a brew intensive scout. This scout is very nice for purples as it gives lots of points, though it is intensive on brews even in max gear. In worse gear, it's still possible as you'd naturally have more brews as you start the raid. For P3 olm you can save supplies by doing thrall 2:0 lance.

    Again, 160 runs deep, just want 1 item, need the most rolls I can get to do so. Why would we turn on 3x points if not to get to max points quicker? Walking in circles here, point is random players decide that now that a wt event is active, "I'm going to 99 firemaking as fast as possible" and light all the altars. If you didn't know, guessing you didn't since you think 4500 points is more than enough, every 250 points past the first 500 is a 50% chance at an additional roll at the cap of 13,500! It makes no sense to rush games on 3x points when you can get a max roll crate that much faster during the events.

    Bruh. 1. You can do wt off event without any interruptions if you really want to. 2. You get a fuck ton of points with the event 3. I've seen the wt event been turned on several times in the past 2 weeks - twice for weekend events and at least once throughout the week before the lagg issues started so you can't even use the excuse it was to compensate the shit servers. 4500 points is more than enough. A server event is an event which everyone in the server takes part. I personally see it as a way to interact with players much more often and make new friends. Honestly, the weekend events is already so OP as it is. It should've never been a thing. Too bad you can't remove it now because everyone would just cry 24/7 like they are now.

    if you light all 4 at the very start you get 2 and a half inventories if you fletch, maybe. I saw your 12 kc so I'm not sure what experience you're talking from chief. Where are these loads of people? I can't find them off event lmfao

    2 and a half inventories if u fletch is more than enough points LOL especially on 3x

    Most group activities are dead. Letting 1 player roll the other 15 that want to do the activity on event is just going to kill those areas even more in my opinion. I stopped running wt since writing this post in hopes to get instanced so yeah not sure chief.

    Most group activities are dead so why kill this one too? You get more than enough points regardless even if someone lights all braziers and speeds up the game - it's not like it ends instantly. Loads of people still run wintertodt despite there being no instance and people lighting braziers.

    Imagine telling people that go and grind wintertodt for max point games they're spoiled. I don't even think that word fits in this context. If I manage max point games off event, I feel like it wouldn't be crazy to expect the same in 3x less times invested lol.

    Only reason why I don't support idea is because it makes the game look even more dead. Playercount already slowly dwindling down and this is giving another excuse to make areas of the game look dead.

    personally have 160 games run and the only time this happens off event is for 1 townboard task, not 15 games in a row of a player just lighting the brazier. nice try tho. nobody camps wintertodt off event, it's a dead place without a boost. turn the points up though and all the sudden people want 99 firemaking.

    ngl the points are still a lot even when people light all braziers, everyone just spoiled and think less than 13k is bad
