Pix from Runefest

Post by Frobozz » Wed Nov 09, 2011 9:02 am

I promised I'd upload some pix from Runefest, so here they are. My apologies for taking a while to do this. Work has been crazy this month (it's 2 AM right now and I'm still working...) so I'll have to do multiple posts over the next few days.

The first couple pictures are from a professional green screen they had set up at the venue. It was a nice set up. You had 6 different Runescape backgrounds to choose from. I did the first shot by myself, then ran into Takuna a couple hours later and we did a shot together. At first I thought the beastie in the picture was an Aberrant Spectre, which is why we're holding our noses. After the fact I realized these were Mort Myre Ghasts. Oh well, I suppose they're smelly too. :D

I'll post more tomorrow.

Look how many people you talked into voting for constitution, Tamal. 8O Maybe your next goal should be to get Jagex to have Runefest in the U.S.! \:D/

Awesome pics, Fro. I can't wait to see more.

Okay, now that I've got the Youtube posting problem figured out, here some more pix and videos from the event.

Here's a quick video of the line to get in at 9 AM on the first day. There were tons of people in costume.

This is a walkthrough of the ground floor. The venue had 4 levels. The ground floor had various places to eat, a bar, a "Meet the Makers" discussion tent, a popcorn vendor, the greenscreen photography mentioned above, a booth to buy Runescape merchandise, a Foosball table, a rubber chicken toss game, a room to watch RS videos, and the main stage that could accommodate at least 500 people. The upper floor had the VIP area, a crafting/cooking skill room, and a presentation/discussion room. The lower level had a mock-up Dungeoneering dungeon with about 5 rooms, several PS3 systems that people were playing games on, a wrestling mat were people could wear these large wrestling costumes and battle for supremacy, a booth to talk with people from various fan sites, and a large bar. Then there was a lower pit in a second basement area that had a large public gaming section with about 100 PCs set up to play RS.

I need to get into work now. I'll post more later.

I am intrigued by your first pic, Fro .... seems you have had a '90 degree rotate' spell cast upon you and you were really, really enjoying your time at Runefest.

I don't even want to discuss the second pic where your friend seems to be taking advantage of your predicament.

Seriously, thanks for the pics, big boy :)

Haha, I was sure it was an Aberrant Spectre. My beastiary knowledge ftl. :P Cheers for uploading, though. Next year hopefully I'll have a camera and we'll have double the snaps. :] (Or triple or quadruple or who knows how many if more'a'y'all come!)
