RuneScape is turning 10 and SwiftKit are throwing a party to celebrate the milestone in style!

We are going to hold two Castle Wars events during the official 10th Anniversary events period. Both the SwiftKit staff and the community thoroughly enjoyed the last Castle Wars event we held - so why not do it again!

We've been keen supporters of both Jagex and RuneScape since 2004 - just after the release of RuneScape 2, when the first ever SwiftSwitch (the predecessor of SwiftKit) client was created for the Imperial Hellkites Clan. In those 6 years, SwiftKit has grown dramatically - having been downloaded over 2.4 million times and is used by many thousands of people simultaneously. It is only fit that we throw an equally massive party event to celebrate RuneScape's 10th anniversary!

We've tailored the time of the events so that each country should have a good opportunity to attend.

Below are the details for the events, which can also be found in the Events Hub in SwiftKit.

Event: Castle Wars
World: 48 for Event 1, 112 for Event 2.
Date: 12th for Event 1 and 14th January for Event 2.

Times:

(Event 1) 2am London (Jan 13), 3am Paris (Jan 13), 8pm US/Central, 6pm US/Pacific, 7pm US/Mountain, 12pm Queensland (Jan 13), 1pm Sydney (Jan 13), 3pm Auckland (Jan 13)
(Event 2) 9am London, 10am Paris, 3am US/Central, 1am US/Pacific, 2am US/Mountain, 7pm Queensland, 8pm Sydney, 10pm Auckland

Requirements: None, but bring some combat gear to get the most enjoyment!

We will be using the #SwiftKit channel on SwiftIRC (irc.swiftirc.net) during the event to communicate. As always, if you mention SwiftKit in-game you run the risk of being muted and potentially banned - just keep the chat in IRC and you'll be fine.

We hope to see you all out in full force! Make sure to arrive early, as the last time we held an event, the world was maxed at 2000 players.

By the way, an invitation has been extended to Jagex to attend the event - but as you can imagine, they may be somewhat hostile to the idea.

Please guys come and support me! smile.gif This is the first event I've thought about throwing up and even though it's not "my" event, I'm asking ALL Guardians that are online at the time to come and show their support, kick some ass, and get WG out there even more.


IT was nice to do a little bit of Castle Wars for once because I haven't done it in a very very long time. However, it would have been nice if people stayed. Regardless, thanks for coming everyone and you too Zemus!

The person that founded swift kit was there. The first round was pretty amazing with everyone that showed up. About 2/3 left by the second round. People did stick around for a third but it was way less people.

The first game we lost, but the second one we won. It was fun and I would like to go to castle wars again soon. Thanks for finding the event and for hosting it.

Thank you Garrett and Dallar.
“The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems
is the day you have stopped leading them.
They have either lost confidence that you can help them
or concluded that you do not care.
Either case is a failure of leadership.”
