Quote from the new Clan Sumbmissions:
"
What. A. Night! RuneFest 2010 was incredible, all of the players were great and there were tons of things to do such as ogre wrestling, archery and fighting the J-Mods in Clan Wars. Enough about that for now, lets focus on the clans!
I'm sure that a number of clans were represented at RuneFest by individuals, but the two clans with the most people there were Wilderness Guardians and Skillers Empire!. Dressed up for the occasion in impressive clan t-shirts, and even some cool Wilderness Guardians pens, they were proud to be a part of their clan and showing it off to the world.
As the morning of the day drew to a close, the queue outside the venue was growing larger and larger by the minute. Not to be outdone by the huge number of players waiting alongside him, His Lordship started to rally the troops with his now infamous rant. I'm not sure if it worked that well for everyone else, but I'm sure it riled up the WG guys - be sure to check it out on YouTube if you didn't get the chance to see it in the flesh.
The doors were open and everyone rushed inside to check out what there was. After the 99th person handed in their ticket and walked through the main doors, there were, of course, some 99-people-at-RuneFest "fireworks" to celebrate! As people were finding their feet and checking out the swordfighting, Draynor Market and much more, I managed to bump into SE Jazzy and all of the Skillers Empire guys!
Later in the day we had a historical moment: the first ever J-Mod vs The World (oh, okay, RuneFest) Clan Wars battle, in which you can attack and kill your beloved J-Mods. I recognised a lot of the names in-game waiting around the portal, I can only imagine that it's a dream of many people to see "You have proven your superiority over Mod MMG" when you pwn him. With the starting numbers being 37 players versus only 9 J-Mods, we knew that we were in trouble. The war started with a few J-Mods falling quickly to the piles and it ended with 0 kills to the J-Mods! We then restarted so that we could return, and considering it was 52 vs 9 this time the J-Mods did pretty well - we even managed to get the ending kill counts to 165 vs 135. Not bad for J-Mods who weren't allowed to use our powers during the war (except maybe for Mod Hulme).
It was then time for the "Meet and Greet" session with myself to discuss everything to do with clans! After finding a decent spot to sit down in the Poison Arrow and making sure that we all had some drinks, we sat down and discussed some of the things to do with the clan world. We talked about some of the issues that clans have such as Friends List space, briefly about the clan update that is in the works and about the Jagex Cup that finished only a few weeks before. It was very relaxed and a fantastic opportunity to talk to you guys, the clan community, through a number of people face to face.
The rest of the day was filled with Insider Sessions, another J-Mod Clan Wars (where it was even closer!) and the Golden Gnomes. It was a fantastic day meeting the players and the clans, I'm sure none of us will forget it!

Yes, I had nothing to really blog about so I just decided to post this. :)
