The Skilling Cup [RESULTS IN]

The Jagex Clan Cups are run every year, round about this time, and gives every Runescape clan the opportunity to participate in one of Runescape's greatest events.

The Skilling Cup tests players in a number of different skills, where 10 players from each clan must try to gain the highest amount of exp in the chosen skill as possible per hour.

# At least 8 of the 10 registered skillers from your clan must have at least 5 full hours of skilling sessions that adhere to our rules. If there are only 7 or less, you clan will be disqualified from the skill. For more information on sessions and full hours, check our Glossary.
# The majority of the XP gained in each session must be of the drawn skill or it will be discounted.
# You must not use any XP enhancing equipment such as Brawling gloves, activity rewards like Stealing Creation tools or others. For a full list, check our Glossary
# Gaining experience from quest rewards or Distraction and Diversions will discount that entire session.
# Rubbing an XP lamp will discount the session, it is advised that you pick another random reward or drop the box.
# Consumables and Summoning familiars are allowed.

The List of Disallowed Equipment (All Skills):
Varrock Armour
Morphic tools from Stealing Creations
Volitile tools from Stealing Creations
The Inferno Adze
Cooking Gauntlets
Swordfish/Shark Gloves
Lumberjack set
Penance Horn from Barbarian Assault

FISHING

We now have until 23:59 Saturday 31st July BST to decide who will represent us in Fishing for the Skill Cup Week.

Myself and the rest of the staff will be making the decision, although your suggestions are highly encouraged and appreciated.

We will be making the decisions based on the following:
1. Level in the skill.
2. General activity.
3. Attitude
4. Results of the Trial.

Sign ups for the 10 skillers for Fishing ends 23:59 Saturday 31st July. The skilling week will begin 00:01 BST Sunday 1st August and run until 23:59 Saturday 7th August. .

Full details of the team and indeed, a guide, will be posted very shortly in this forum.

I'd like to participate v much Since i'm in need for 1 more level till 90

If you're doing concentrated gold mines.
Head to the mines straight after you get a random event.
This lessens the chance you'll waste time on a random event, within your 1 hr skilling period.

Why is this still pinned? Is it just me or am I the only one who can't find this topic for fishing and cooking?

Will be updated tomorrow morning, 11 am GMT. Don't fret kind sir.

6th place is epic considering we're not a skilling clan.
Good job everyone!

Holy shit I did not think we would place that high. That's awesome good work everyone.

EDIT: Oh I see we got 0 for the buddy skills... my suffering wasn't even good for anything

That is a really really good effort, very pleasing indeed.
Thanks to everyone who participated as well as all the staff and members who helped with the running of it.
6th is really good considering some of those competitors.
