Highest player count, lowest unique visitors.
Intresting.

Anyone who couldn't attend the 2011 party probably took the chance to attend 2012. Anyone who liked either one of them is more likely to attend the 3rd, and so you get more people who have been before who stay for longer and less unique people. Given that in the previous two years the 'event' has been screenshotted and posted on the forums for at least a week afterwards and people tend to make their minds up based on 3rd-person viewpoints rather than their own experience it's not that much of surprise. Still pretty odd though.

Shame I couldn't come :( Loved last year.

The whole thing with Jagex lawsuit things: yeah, i got about 20 of those on my email i used for my rs account. i was like wat, tried to open the link, it opens to a page that doesn't load and then that's it. it's pretty dumb.

Currently have 26 of them, none of which open. At least the phishers are being vaguely entertaining now and giving us legislation codes to compare :D

I would love if the devs went back to adding things that actually were useful.

You mean like an entire overhaul of the redstone system plus carts which can offload and unload items using new special tracks?

Research future versions before doubting the devs

I'm supposed to be a corrupt dictatorship that hates its people without mercy. Why the hell do I have an insurance industry?!

Provided you're not just hitting monsters as you run by (ie. actually doing some combat training) then the experience is pretty much the same as it used to be. The big difference is that whoever gets to the monster first gets the experience (I don't think this applies to bosses or duo slayer), and so you don't get annoying people taking an easy ride by killing monsters which are targetting you.

Slayer seems to work on the basis of whoever does the most damage.

In summary; how to get experience:
- Slayer: Do the most damage to a monster
- Everything else: Get there first

1.4.4 seems like a really worthless update that just added a bunch of misc stuff like mobs and and bug fixes

am i wrong?

It fixed a really bad exploit, made it possible to use a minecart without mysteriously dying a few minutes later (now you just die instantly if you fall anywhere), and you can now actually kill slimes. There are also another 80 or so pretty major bugfixes, like this one "* [MC-1102] - Minecraft crashes in creative inventory"

It's a 3-digit update anyway, which should never really be expected as anything other than bugfixes for the main version (1.4).
