Trivia
Ardougne Diary Ardougne Tasks
 * On the day of the release, clicking on the spoiler box on the RuneScape website for the rewards gave the message: "Argh! Someone's pinched the rewards!"
 * One of the tasks is called "A visit to Charlie" where the player has to visit a Unicorn in the zoo. This may be a reference to the famous video series called "Charlie the Unicorn".
 * The Task "The Coal Train" could be a reference to the character Cole (AKA "The Cole Train") from Gears of War.
