2010 Easter event

The 2010 Easter event was released on March 29, 2010 at 13:30 GMT. Its name is Egg-streme Management.

Starting off
First you will need to go south of Falador almost midway between Rimmington and Falador. There you will see Charlie the squirrel. After talking to him you will have to go down the nearby hole - you can't go in with anything in your pack. The first time (and the first time only), Charlie will give you the option to send your whole inventory to your bank account. Either way, you'll need an empty pack to enter the hole. Later on, you won't get the bank option, so when you return after finishing your deliveries, make sure your pack is empty. Once inside, you must go north into the next room were you will meet Easter Bunny Jr and Easta Buni (an Ice troll), who is extorting him for rock cake. The Easter Bunny will ask you to help him fix the modernised factory and you will agree.

Cleaning the Oven
You'll need to speak to an Impling manager and clean the oven. Go to the oven, which is the first machine if you come out of EBJ's office. Right-click the oven to obtain the three parts, and wash them in the water behind the oven by using each one in turn on the water. Then, put them back in the oven by using them on it. Talk to the manager, who will send you back to the Easter Bunny.

Making the Glaze
The bunny will tell you to fix the egg/bread glazing machine and so you must go to it. It is the southmost machine. Talk to the impling in charge and he will tell you he needs glaze from one of the crates. The supplies are in one of the boxes in the workshop. The location is different for every player. Once you have the supplies (which consist of one crate), give them to the manager impling. He then gives you glazes to make colours and a colour wheel (not to confuse with the one from Mourning's Ends Part II). Talk to him again to discover what colour you need to make (a total of three colours). You can mix the glazes by using them with the bowl he gave you. If you mix too many different colours, you will get a black mess and you will have to empty the bowl. Once you made all glazes needed, the manager will send you back to the Bunny.

Convincing the Easter Bird
Go South of the Easter Bunny until you see the Easter Bird. He is easy to spot. Talk to him, and select the positive phrases. There are only 3 multichoice questions, all of which are pretty easy.

Training the Squirrels
After finishing the glaze making, you must then go back to the Easter Bunny who will report that the squirrels on the conveyor belt need training. Go talk to Big Ben who will put you at the controls of the conveyor. Ignore any nuts or chocolate and let them pass but press the red button when a toy (possibly General Graardor), a broken peanut, or a screw comes by. Now go back to the Bunny again. He will put you in charge of the entire factory. But first you have to motivate the easter bird. Just choose options that are encouraging.

Factory Management
The strategy to use here is to build up your raw materials and then create finished goods, And to do those... You need to increase the value of resources (Nuts, Chocolate and Fruit) first, Then move along and increase the value of the final products (Fruit Cake, Nutty Eggs and Tangy egg bread). When you do manage to get resources you can also use them to recruit more workers. You do not have to get 15 workers to finish this event, it can even be done with 4 or 5. You will lose one resource for every 5 workers you have at the end of each turn. When the turn is finished, some events may occur:


 * Nothing may happen.
 * A machine may break. You can fix it yourself or you can order the workers to fix it, by clicking the box next to the machine in your next turn.
 * You may find 3 extra resources.
 * You may lose 3 resources.

In order to make Fruit Cake, you will need one fruit and one nuts. In order to make Tangy egg bread, you will need one chocolate and one fruit. In order to make Nutty eggs, you will need one chocolate and one nuts.

You can use the arrows to get more resources for the next turn, or to set the amount of product that need to be made for the next turn. To recruit more workers, click the recruit-button. You will need to have 7 of each product (cake,

NOTE: If you don't think you'll be able to complete the orders in under 15 turns simply talk to the Easter Bunny again and select the second option to reset the factory. You can then try again to get it under 15 turns so that you can get the bonus reward.



Deliveries
The Easter Bunny will give you a map and a delivery box, You have to deliver goods to recipents in three different cities:
 * Lumbridge (Bridge east of the courtyard)
 * Varrock (Entrance of the Grand Exchange)
 * Falador (Falador Square)

If you need to know where to go exactly, Then check the map that the easter bunny gave you. It will give you a marker on the map that shows where to go.

After you have finished with the deliveries, You must speak with The Easter bunny for your reward.

Congratulations! Event Complete.

Trivia
"When you have completed the order you will be shown your score." " The lower the Score,..." " Why not see if you can beat your friends score."
 * This is the first time players can summon two pets.
 * This is the second time free-players can summon pets/familiars, the last time being the 2008 Easter Event (what was summoned then) you changed into a chocatrice.
 * After a certain amount of time, the squirrels dissapear and you have to wait 30 minutes to Summon them again.
 * When you complete the event, your Adventurer's Log will say "Ran the Easter Bunny's factory and gained a squirrel friend."
 * The Twitter hint for this update was: EBJ requires a middle manager. Are you up for it?.
 * If your character has never seen an Elf, he won't recognize the "Hooded man" as one.
 * In the Factory Management Help on the right side of the screen during the Management Planning-minigame, there are a few spelling errors which yet not have been fixed.
 * After you summon your squirrels, Fluffy will sometimes yell "DOG!" This is an apparent reference to the animated movie "Up" where in the dogs would interrupt themselves in mid-sentence to yell "SQUIRREL!"
 * It appears that if you don't complete the management stage in 15 tries, you can only summon one squirrel instead of two.
 * Charlie the squirrel may be a spoof of Smosh's Charlie the Drunk Guinea Pig as they share a similar vocabulary and appearance
 * After the release of the 2010 Easter event it was possible to kill peoples summoned squirrels using range or mage, This is now fixed.
 * The easter bird of 2010 is the first ever NPC to have a detailed shadow all other NPC's just have circle like shadows the same as players have.
 * There is a bug in the Easter Bunny's face if you try to summon the squirrels inside the factory, This has yet to be fixed.Buggy.PNG
 * If a player tries to summon the squirrels while inside the hole, the Easter Bunny replies with "HOLD ON A SECOND! Don't you DARE summon in here. I have health and safety certifications to think of. Besides, Charlie is barred from the factory for headbutting the implings. Do it outside!"
 * One of the items that appears on the conveyor belt appears to be a plush General Graardor Doll, similar to the one in the 2009 Easter event.
 * This is the first time free players get to speak and see Elves (though they won't recognise them) and Ice trolls (though this one looks different from the other known ones).
 * The ice troll is called Easta Buni (pronounced the same as 'Easter Bunny'), because he was born around Easter and tried to eat the Easter Bunny; trolls are named to the first thing they (try to) eat.
 * The Easter Bunny says "The Easter Bird hasn’t been fulfilling his chocolate quota and it’s holding everything back." Notice how he refers to the bird as a he, and then an it.
