 * It's harder to get than fish mask, and stays here for much shorter, at least 17:14, December 19, 2012 (UTC)


 * Only going to make it more valuable when they take it away.DiabolusMiles (talk) 03:40, December 20, 2012 (UTC)

Well, they did add the Fish mask and we all know how that ended up.Emoted Wolf (talk) 19:33, December 20, 2012 (UTC)

They only said they wouldn't drop free rares all over the place. This one can technically only be bouhgt with real-world money (ie SoF) or obtained through hours of playing (Took me 10 saved-up spins just to get the green present, still haven't gotten any others after 30 min of Runespan, so they're kind of rareish)

I hope to get one to save and at least one more to sell, although I have to decide...is it better for my OCD brain to get this and the mistletoe so I have everything, or save up for two of these...

Does any1 have enough gp in game to buy 2 and test this 50m hi alch, 100m low alch that it says on the wiki page, or is it known already some1 trolled the page?Good i snipr (talk) 03:35, December 21, 2012 (UTC)

Where/when did Jagex said they'd be completely removed on the 14th of January? 94.145.226.59 10:23, December 22, 2012 (UTC)


 * Its saying that the presents would be removed not the christmas tree hat. Bluest (talk) 21:35, December 22, 2012 (UTC)

Factual correction
"The Grand Exchange Price has risen exponentially  [dramatically] every day it is updated since its release."

After fixing this, I noticed the change was reverted. Here is a little math lesson:

The price on March 26 was 23,296,136

The price on March 27 was 24,365,128

That is a rise in price of 1,068,992

If the price rose EXPONENTIALLY  the next time it was updated, the market price of the Christmas Tree Hat on March 29th would be 1,142,768,261,192 (over 1 trillion gold), as exponentially would mean 1,068,992 x 1,068,992 = the new 1-day change.

Not only this, but immediately below this trivia entry is "The Christmas Tree Hat doubles in price every 15-16 days that it is updated." which is totally contradictory to the previous trivia entry. If the price rose exponentially, it would more than double (in fact, it would be millions of times higher than it was before) every single day it is updated.

Not once during any period of time since its release has the Christmas Tree Hat ever risen exponentially in price.


 * Exponential functions don't have to be squares. For example, 1,068,9921.0001 is "only" 1070477.0294664 but it's still exponential. Also take note that the word wasn't used here literally; it's a common synonym for rapid growth. Your change is fine, but you shouldn't complain with a misguided understanding. 03:39, March 30, 2013 (UTC)

In that case, any increase or decrease can be considered "exponential". Regardless of whether its misuse has entered the common lexicon as meaning something entirely different, a less ambiguous term is more appropriate. In an encyclopedic entry, things should be described literally. I very seriously doubt the person was describing an increase using a rational exponent. You shouldn't stretch reasoning to preserve a flawed status quo.
 * If you read the latter of my statement, you'd see I didn't care one way or the other about the change. 18:28, March 30, 2013 (UTC)


 * @unsigned user, if you knew anything about exponents, you'd realize that doubling every 15 days would mean it fits one of the most basic exponential graphs, 2^x (where x is the number of 15 day periods).  So in terms of months, that would be increasing at 4^x.  Nice try pretending to know math though.
 * If you just use Google you can see what some exponential graphs looks like Exponential curve
 * Now look at this curve. http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Exchange:Christmas_tree_hat   It's either exponential or geometric.  I guess you could just plug in the values and see which curve it fits better using a graphing calculator...
 * Also, time doesn't have to be in 1 day units man.  For something like this, you'd want to use some bigger chunks of time since this is basically like stocks and flucuates frequently for small intervals of time.98.237.74.88 20:00, April 6, 2013 (UTC)
