Another anniversary weekend has come and went, and we hope that everyone had a enjoyable weekend despite the discord/runescape servers issues. Here is the RECAP thread!
Advent Calender
To start off, we decided to do a 20-day advent calendar event involving a series of small challenges to complete daily. Quirkie was the big brain behind all of this. In total we had 50 people participating in the event, where some even completed the entire advent! Here they are!

Before we move on, we had a little raffle for this event too, the winner of that didn't complete the most days but RNG lead its way towards him: profit !
We hope you had fun completing these challenges! This will be, hopefully, returning next year.
Man Hunt
We started the weekend off with some good old manhunt.
Man Hunt previously used discord in combination with the site to release clues. This day, discord decided to work against the hosts. About 15 minutes before the event was supposed to start, discord went offline for most. At first the hosts were trying to postpone the Man Hunt by 30 min and host a normal race before that, hoping the discord servers would be fixed by then. But YOU weren't in on that! You guys wanted to go even without discord! And so we started team picking for man hunt. Some thought it was the race draft picking, but little they know it was actual Man Hunt. Regardless of being captains or being picked for the wrong activity, we hope you had fun anyway!
Funny enough discord came back online right after the Man Hunt had finished..
Big thanks to Faardo , callybob , Ugne G , Quirkie and Scorchbeast for organising this! It was a lot of fun
Now to the results...
The winning team:
Team Sweaty Nerds

Congrats with the win! See below for full results!!
If you missed manhunt or simply want to go through it again, click here for all the hints and here for the solutions.
Achilles & Tortoise Race
Manhunt was followed up by a second iteration of the Achilles & Tortoise Race hosted by Zarpedon . 8 teams were formed. flunch nominated his team as the Tortoise team and thus had to have their team's healer walk on waves 6+. Once flunch's team entered wave 6, the other 7 teams (Achilles teams) began to race them to finish waves 1-10. For the first time, the Tortoise team won. Flunch and his teammates were awarded 10m each. Better luck next time, Achilles teams.
Tourney
If you were not aware, all of the Sunday events were livestreamed over at twitch by Tasty and Hops . First, we were treated to a trip down memory lane.
Sunday is usually the day of BA, where we unite and play BA vs. eachother. And ofcourse, even on our anniversary event we do so. We prepared a tournemant race with a bracket that goes up to 14 teams. We were expecting fewer players to come race with us due to OSRS servers being really bad that day, only one world was decent enough most pointed out. But no, we were surprised when we had counted the pile, and saw 70 people well willing to race. This was a RECORD we shall not forget.
We managed to the entire tournament in one world. The start was a bit rough, for some teams atleast, but the winner of the tournament race was....
Team Drop Trou!
Trousers
callybob
berejected
gelekers
Jamilan
Here are the results and teams!
Click the spoiler for the "empty" tournament bracket, may you be interested.
Awards & Promos
This year we had 81 total votes for the awards!! Many thanks to all those who voted and congratulations to our award winners below.
We ofcourse also had our special (couple) awards..
It doesn't stop there, we had more stuff to "announce" on stream. This time it was about something less fun, as Zarpedon will be handing in his keys to Casual Ba. He'll be joining the captains soon. You can read more about it here
But ofcourse, as many of you know, we also had Promotions!
We've been watching this guy for a while now, but the CBA management is happy to take wazaaranger into the star team!
A captain promotion was also something on our list. @trueknight managed to claim that spot!
And last, but definetely not least we had an Admin promotion, something that hasn't really happened since roughly a year, when Run Down Mid joined the gold stars. This time around it was Hops who got promoted to admin!
tl;dr:
Gzzz wazaaranger ! (sergeant to lieutenant)
Gzzz @trueknight ! (lieutenant to captain)
Gzzz Hops ! (captain to general/admin)
With that said,
I think we've reached the end of the post.
Hope you all had fun!
