Wake up early, but wouldn't cancel plans in real life for important events
IRL > Than RS
That's how it goes for me.

Sorry I showed up a few minutes later than I should have, I guess my first round of my alarm clock just didn't register in my ear, because I definitely set it for 20 minutes before the event start tongue.gif.

Anyway ... I somewhat expected a low turnout to this, but not THIS low. Kinda upsets me, to be honest.

I never have any plans so yeah:

Wake up early, tell friends we can hang another day for important events.

+ Now you'll see a huge increase in my attendance since I've discovered that alarms DO actually work for me.

I need my own option.

I'ld only get up early for important events, as long as it wasn't required too often of me. I wouldn't miss real life opportunities, because ultimately - getting away from the pc is nice (regardless if i'm working, scaping, youtubing). IRL > PC.

However, i'ld cancel irl plans for WildGuard irl plans. As long as it wasn't like last year where I had spent £205 already for a festival lol.

But ultimately, anything comes above the internet. It's just how I was brought up by my parents I guess. But I have been known to lie to irl mates in times of raids and wars biggrin.gif

And anyway, I get up every sunday early for Aussie raid so meh tongue.gif

Edit: Went for Option 2, most realistic here.

I cancelled plans irl yesterday to attend the Clan Quest.
Obviously it would depend on how important both the WG event and the plans are irl, but mostly i'd do my best to reschedule (if possible) my RL stuff if the WG event was that important.

Depends what our event is. If it is something really important for the clan or something I really want to attend, I will change my plans accordingly.

I consider important real life events to be job related as I'm most always on call at any moment. I try to fit things in though but mistakes happen or I fall asleep before something. I always have the best intentions is all I can say, I wouldn't say a particular continent has superior dedication because they have grown accustom to getting up for events.

Depends how early, I've tried doing 4 AM for the Aussie raids but it's unmanageable for me. I will never cancel real life plans for runescape.

This whole topic is bullshit.
Voting for an option and doing that action are two different things.
If those results were true, we wouldn't pull 8 to an aussie clanniversary day.
Simple as that.

Nice to see someone has the balls to say they 'Wouldn't go to an event unless I'm home and I'm not doing anything else.'

I get up early/stay up super later. (I stay up till 5:00am on Sunday mornings for Aussie raids).

However, I will rarely cancel a IRL plan for an event if it's something with my close friends. The flip side to this is, if I'm doing something WG related and then I get asked to do something I normally say that I'm busy. In my life, it's kind of first come first serve basis.. it's how I was taught.

You know me, I'll cancel plans IRL. Unless i really wanna go of course. Like a 1 off. So yes i voted for the first one.

But i get up early every day for events. Usually 8 oclock but sometimes 7 hash.png

Staying up till 1am on school nights kills me a little. But nothing sleeping at school cant solve. But now that I'm going into school next week I probly won't be attending events during the week. Unless there happens to be a recurring Mid-week Aussie raid.

P.S I have skipped school for wars once or twice. Feel free to laugh at me lolz

The only event which I can get up early for is aussie raid (although its not that early for me) which I do most of the time. But im 50/50 with events/irl events, depends on what each of them are really.
