28-Feb-2012 – Spin and Win on the Squeal of Fortune!

Feeling lucky? We're proud to present the Squeal of Fortune: a game of chance available to free players once daily, and members twice per day. There are some fantastic prizes on offer: some exclusive; some powerful; and some…well…nutritious, at least. Everyone's a winner, and it's quick and easy to play every day!

As soon as you log in, you’ll be greeted by Yelps, the host of Squeal of Fortune. Interact with him to start things spinning, and then hit the big, red button see what you’ve won.

Each time you play, you'll see a selection of items to win, randomly chosen from Yelps's huge stash of loot. There’ll always be a grand prize, such as a godsword, some dragon equipment, a hefty XP lamp or an eye-watering number of GP, so there’s a chance to win big every time.

There's also a range of exclusive items that can only be obtained through Squeal of Fortune, including a goblin hat, demonic horns and some amazing head tattoos.

There are many practical prizes on offer to help you on your adventures too, including gems, coins, arrows and magic runes. Even if you don’t get that shiny swag you had your eye on, there'll always be tomorrow – and you can never have too many cabbages.

Good luck, and have fun!


Further Details

To play, log into the game, and click the interface icon that appears on-screen. You can drag this anywhere on the screen, and it will appear in that position whenever you log in. The button will disappear for the day once you used your available spins.

Members can spin twice per day, and free players once. This resets at midnight, GMT/BST.

Please note that many of the more illustrious items to be won in Squeal of Fortune are non-tradable.

Take a look at our forum FAQ if you have further questions.

There are now server-wide announcements, broadcast when a player achieves something particularly outstanding. You can stop these being broadcast from yourself by switching off your private chat. Please note – if you have private chat off at the time of the update and wish to block announcements, you’ll need to switch private chat on and then off again. You can also filter out announcements from other players through the "Game" filter options in the bottom-left corner of the screen.



PS: This actually seems a good idea, although it will bring more bgs to the game lol, i will try as soon as im able to, rewards seems nice

I wouldn't be surprised if they messed up and everyone wins ags.

Runescape for gamblers. I'm diggin' that.

WOOT Jagex Gambling I get 4 goes :D

Hope they have it bugged to win 2 AGS :D

im sure the god swords will be rare to get

error connecting to server :duh:

Interface bugs like mad on safemode. Will probably be clicked by object finding. Should make a random solver for it to run it if it detects.

i want my free gpzzz :D

From: wister1
error connecting to server :duh:

I sincerely hope they aren't trying to curb the gambling addiction with two free spins a day.

My screen has frozen like 5 times since the update -.-

Unless I'm just really high, they changed yellow crosshair colour that happens when you click screen.

Wow. Their servers have really suffered some downgrades.

im not able to log in at all, besides theres less than 3k people only so its normal i cant get in, now all those kids will buy membership to get free spinzzz, and other people can just create free accounts and get a spin on ea

definitely changed it…

No reply from login server ={

The "clicked" cross when not clicking on an active object is now slightly green-tinged to differentiate it totally from the red cross.

Yep.

Looks like puke. Awesome job Jagex on making the game even uglier.

lol… is it just me or when u press login it freezes?

lol i got a freakin bucket and a medium lamp (13323 on my 92 rc)

From: Harry
Yep.

At least it's still static. I have the same color cross :p It doesn't look that bad to me though.

If you get member only price it will say you "Subscribe now to claim" ….

i can log in with firefox but not with smart

Got 50 GP and Tin Ore… ffs lol

omfg not server crap again major set back jagex common. i got shits to do.

And just today I got hacked…GF 50M zzz

in f2p if you get a member item it will tell you to subscribe to claim it lol, what a weak atempt (or not) to make kids subscribe

I wonder why Jagex chose green as opposed to the original yellow colour.

That would be too easy!

From: z92
I wonder why Jagex chose green as opposed to the original yellow colour.

because doing that was admitting they shouldnt had changing in the first place and jagex never regrets an update (except taking wilderness and free trade and we all know why)

looks like they updated the clicking colors.
nvm already stated, so many posts in like 2 minutes

Got some free xp further nothing special :P But i have 4 chances everyday. So maybe i'll get lucky and get that divine :PPPPP

Wonder how the prizes are calculated.

so we could make a script to stop rolling the wheel at a certain very precise spot to make it land on which ever segment we wanted?

I am pretty sure its random

Don't think so, because from what i have seen all the 4 times the to stop time was different (felt like that)

probably, if its always the same pattern

It stopped at 10M!…. but it only gave me a lamp :)

Lol my friend got the bandos chest plate and tried to sell it, wouldn't sell, said it was not tradable :P

That is what is says, so just see it as a piece of bandos that doesn't cost anything. Also this won't effect the economy too much. Ofcourse the prices will go down a bit, but not so much as when they are tradeable.

Try to alch it, maybe it works lol.

Simba is working ? :)

From: jgustys
Simba is working ? :)

it is, which doesnt mean all scripts are

MSI Woodcut script doesnt work properly since update. Alot of missclicks, doesn't bank good, and if there are 4 magic tree's, it keeps clicking on all the 4 tree's. :( :(

This is awesome.
I guess my 100+ accounts will come in handy for this :p

From: Overtime
This is awesome.

I logged into my 10 members accounts and only 2 got the interface.

Everyday I hate more Jagex wih their fail updates :/

ive just rolled around 50 times (used my f2p accounts i use to buy uncuts) and didnt get anything worthy, 2 times 10k, like 15 medium lamps, rest buckets, cabages, small lamps, seems the expensive items are trully rare, maybe tomorrow

From: smurg

You have to make sure they aren't on a tutorial.. Go to your Task List (Click Done) go to options.. and uncheck TUTORIAL : ON to make it OFF

From: smurg

Must be glitch? They can't simply base the interface off of IP address… cuz that would suck for cafe internet users or library users..

I will check my accounts later.

Why do jagex keep making shit updates…..

2 rolls, 1 socks full of coal (3 coals) and 50gp. Not much a sample size but good for a laugh!

2 rolls….rune pick and med xp lamp

In my opinion this just seems like another attempt from Jagex to get non-members to become members.

From: Harry

That looks fugly.

From: KeepBotting
That looks fugly.

Yup, they are reaching the bottom level of Stupid Idea now to force people to become Member…

I am so Happy, I have won a Rune Sci and 50 Gold, Yeh!

Horrible update besides the wheel update it made some scripts messed up and rs is lagging for me

This just appeared in my chatbox:

News: Lady Sherree has just achieved at least level 99 in all skills!

Yea, its annoying now and people can now message you crap when you level unless you have private off people won't see you level.

Its a world wide announcement I believe.

Well it wouldnt be a suprise if a script comes out wich creates accounts and spins this lotto and if success account is logged :D

All I got was 2 yew logs from that update spin thing

bad thing is that getting a rare or very rare item in one of your crapy acounts doesnt help you at all, for what ive seen NONE OF THE RARE OR VERY RARE ITEMS (EXCEPT ONYX) ARE TRADEABLE

check here http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Squeal_of_Fortune

I got a rare item on my fourth spin :D :D :D Too bad it was an xp lamp :/ FML

Ya, they are on tutorial. Didn't know you could turn that off, noice!

+rep

The best I got on any of my accounts was the xp lamp, and on my f2p accounts, the lamps are Members only? Wtf.

Any time great sir :)

OffTopic: By the way, sick Sudoku Script :) I saw it on sythe, just not rich enough to afford it :O

Edit: OnTopic: Everybody that reads this thread, I will be posting a script which is static (Recommended Windows 7 Platform and Google Chrome) check Scripts -> Utitlities.. I will be posting a poll and to see how many people want me to release a pretty decent account creator with email verification support ;) (Mailinator or one with faster emailing receiving)

I got 50gp and a small lamp. Oh joyous days!

… What a marvelous update.

The entire point is yet again to get you to purchase members: You get members items you can't use in f2p and have the carrot of extra spins dangled in front of you. They are really over the top pushing members since the bot-nuke.

Um, is this new?


I was on one of my accounts, and I don't know who that is since they're not in my friends list or anything.

Yup, they do worldWide announcement when You reach lvl 99 in one skill!

Perhaps, I also saw a few announcement for when people have reach lvl 99 in every skills.

I saw one for the Quest Cape as well.

say neigh to gambling says jagex :p

I got nothing on any of my accounts today. Sucks cuz I'm not a member so all the member items I got were useless (no good ones though mostly just lamps). Hopefully tomorrow gives me a better loot :)

Oh hey… i won a rune platebody :surprised: and yeah this level 99 note thing is weird…

Ya, didredclick also changed a few hues! :P


Wow, worst gamble reward ever! :duh:

kinda love this gambling :D good update but the rest of the small random lvl 99s are just annoying

actually i got a cabage!

I got 4 member only items out of 5 f2p accounts, and 10K twice lol. Was so close to getting a spirit shield.

I feel this is another pointless update

2 accounts 1 got 10k coins and 13k rc exp! <— beast imo , 2nd account got 1 logs -.- 10m coins!

Edit f2p account got what looked like a best exp lamp.. runecrafting .. yay 84exp? -.-

There are many practical prizes on offer to help you on your adventures too, including gems, coins, arrows and magic runes. Even if you don&#8217;t get that shiny swag you had your eye on, there'll always be tomorrow &#8211; and you can never have too many cabbages

since when did runescape started using words like swag :L

Yep, it's actually neat IMO. I got a 99 and suddenly got over 300 PMs… was quite funny.

I got idea of new antiban, when somebody gets 99 pm them with congratulations

small exp lamp and bronze dagger.
ps: the f2p rewards suck very hard.

12 tries today :C Nothing good. Nothing I say.

Just so that you guys know, you can turn off the 99 messages by turning game filter on.
