Golden cracker

The Golden cracker is an Item which celebrates Jagex's win in the Golden Joystick Awards. On login, players received a message in their chatbox: 'We have given you a golden cracker in your bank to celebrate our Golden Joystick win! Use it on another player to open it.' If one's bank is full, the item can be given to him by Diango upon talking to him. If a player loses the cracker via dying, Alchemy, or by simply destroying it, it can be reobtained by speaking with Diango.

Once a player uses it on another, they receive a Golden hammer. This is a "fun" item, which appears as a Golden hammer wielded in both hands, like a small Granite Maul. If the hammer is misplaced somehow, one can obtain a replacement cracker from Diango once again in order to obtain a new hammer.

Many players have speculated that the Golden cracker will become tradable; however, this is not true. This item only bears a resemblance to a Christmas Cracker, but will never become one.

When someone pulls a cracker on another player, the second will receive a message saying "You pull a golden cracker, and (name of first player) receives the prize!"
