RuneScape:Wikifest/Autumn 2007

'''The next Wikifest is the Fall Wikifest of 2007. Information about the schedule, planning, and events can be found here.

The Wikifest is a seasonal wiki community event held in-game for members of the RuneScape Wiki. Wikifests are held to celebrate the wiki's progress and each user's contributions to the wiki, to help the community grow closer, and most of all, for the enjoyment of all. A wikifest is essentially an in-game festival at which wiki members can participate in activities which are traditional party events in RuneScape. The first Wikifest was the Summer Wikifest of 2007, which was held on June 24th, 2007. The next Wikifest is the Fall Wikifest of 2007, which will be held on September 22, 2007.

Organization
Wikifests are organized entirely by volunteer wiki members, and there is a lot of planning and preparation leading up to each Wikifest.

Schedule
Each Wikifest follows a schedule of events which is pre-organized by volunteer wiki members. The schedule may vary slightly for each Wikifest, but is usually similar to previous schedules.

Moderators/Volunteers
Each Wikifest is managed by several volunteers who regulate the events and control them so that everything goes as scheduled. While all wiki members are welcome to participate, volunteer, and help out with planning and organizing, moderators have additional responsibilities. Moderators may perform as judges and give out rewards in contests and other events. While any user can volunteer to be a moderator, they must be approved by the current moderators.

Note: Volunteers are not the same as wiki administrators. While moderators are often administrators, this is not a requirement to be a moderator. The only requirement to be a moderator is to be trusted and active within the wiki community.

Current Moderators/Volunteers:
 * Gangsterls
 * Ilyas
 * Tesfan
 * Atlandy
 * Cashman286
 * Dtm142

Drop party
A drop party is held at all Wikifests, at which wiki members who have volunteered to donate items to the drop party share their wealth with the community. All wiki members are encouraged to donate. Volunteers can post their donations in the drop party section under the upcoming Wikifest.

Drop party
The drop party will be the last event held at the Wikifest. It will be held at the party room, where all the donations will be placed into the chest. The lever will be pulled and the donations will be released in balloons for everyone to collect. Donations are always welcome and appreciated. Don't feel embarrassed to make a small donation. Good luck!

Donations: If you would like to donate item(s) to the drop party, please list your name and your contribution. Please note that ALL donations must be FREE-TO-PLAY items! Pay-to-play items are not accepted because this would not be fair to our the free players among us. If you have a pay-to-play item you would like to donate, please sell it and donate the proceeds to the drop party.

Planning
The schedule goes as following... 15:35, 28 August 2007 (UTC)


 * All attendees meet in Falador square in world 107 at the beginning of the party
 * We shall have discussion for 15 minutes.
 * We shall now play games for about 30 minutes. Listed bellow are games.
 * Stronghold Race - 2 Moderators stand at the entrance of the Stronghold of Security. 3 Players must race to the Skull Sceptre. The rules are that if you have finished a level before, you are not allowed to use the portal or you shall be disqualified. First player to get the Sceptre together wins 10k. This game may be played once.
 * Hide and Go Fally - A moderator (party not p-mod) hides somewhere in Falador. Rules are, you may not use the mining guild or the Dwarven mines. The hider may hide in an upper story of a building, on the walls of Falador or in the White Knights Castle. Varriety of places to hide. Now there is also a moderator/admin timming the game on the ground. After 10 minutes, they may call back all players and the hider if they are not found. However, if a player manages to find the hider the hider must follow them and they can return to Falador square to collect their 10k reward. This game may be played as many times as possible in the 30 minutes.
 * After 30 minutes all players procceed to the Party Room. Take out what you're going to drop and one player bring an extra 1k. After everyone is done (we need to be sure) then they may spread out and the player with 1k left may pull the lever. I'm assuming everyone knows how the Party Room works? Anyways, after this we have 3 choices.
 * We all have 3 choices.
 * Those who like to pk may go to world 17 (I think that's a pking world right?) to do so. Members, remember to bring f2p armour and weapons because this is in f2p. We may do this under the moderation of two party moderators/admins level 90+ (it's a pking trip).
 * Members who would like to may go play pest control in world 59. We will all travel to Port Sarim TOGETHER and take the boat to the outpost. This is not a PC world so we have no company. If our crowd of people is bellow 5 then we must go back to the party or some may go pking.
 * The party may continue for those who would like to stay. We'll just do what we did with the games. Hide and Go Fally and Stronghold Race. We need at least 3 party moderators to manage this.

Well there's our schedule. I hope we don't get any looters for the Drop Party, however world 107 is almost never crowded. If it is then we will have one users go and look for the least crowded f2p world. Then, they will tell all other users to come on clan chat or private. However, everyone must have private chat on friends only for hopping incase anyone tries to follow. 15:47, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Events
Suggest events for the Fall Wikifest of 2007 here!

FTP pking for those who want to.

Castle wars? Pest control? Start our own riot? 01:09, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

No riots. Castle Wars and Pest Control are pay-to-play. We need to work out the logistics of pay-to-play activities, which should be held after the free-to-play activities and the drop party. 02:36, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Perhaps a wilderness run in f2p with monk robes? We could all be a team and (try to) kill people. BUT, our level differences would get in the way of effective teaming. 05:47, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Me and Atlandy planned the entire schedule out. I will place it in the section above. 15:21, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I suggest that we play more than one minigame. There are plenty of other things we can do like Barbarian Assault, Castle Wars, Trouble Brewing, or the TzHaar Fight Pits. Dtm142 20:19, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Indeed, but those are too far away from Castle Wars. PC is relatively close. All we do is walk together to Port Sarim and take the boat. 21:15, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
 * A parade around the world to get there :D ? Dtm142 23:08, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Moderators
Discuss moderators and their responsibilities here!

I propose that all party moderators wear a special costume to identify them at the event. We should discuss this on IRC or clan chat ASAP. Remember that it must be:


 * An f2p outfit.
 * Relatively cheap, but difficult enough to get that most players wouldn't have it lying around in their bank to prevent impersonation.

Those are my thoughts. Dtm142 20:13, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
