As many might know, Runescape was updated this evening and something new was brought! (as usual)

We are talking about 'The Sqeal of Fortune'.
You only have to press the Red Button, in order to stop the wheel.
Now..what you members think about it? Matter of luck? Is it drop alike? Any way to 'cheat it'?

Post your thoughts!

It's just another way for jagex to…

a) Attempt to mess us up during login
b) Get new members, f2p wants to spin it twice because they want prizes
c) Attempt to mess up longevity of botting, by using the reset ever 24h counter

+ There may be other reasons too which I haven't taken into consideration.

There might, there might bud.
I did heard that we can get expensive items, such as Divine o:
Now prices will start to crash, even if they can't sell those items.

You definitely can't sell expensive items. They put 'lucky' in front of them.

Well the prices won't crash that much, because the chances of getting it are pretty rare and the items are untradedable.

^ Check out the rewards.

Ya. I don't like the idea of adding these rares to the wheel, however they are un-tradeable. But now a retard can get a divine by pushing a button.. -_- Really Jagex? Same exact stats too..

I made a script that waits waits for getcolor at a certain point and then click the button with clickmouse. It didn't work. It aways eded up in a different place so I think it must be randomized :(

"When receiving the 10,000,000 gp you can only use it in stores around Runescape. "

… is that for real?

Holy crap guys. There's literally a lucky divine. My friend told me that he had a chance to get a lucky spectral and I said jokingly "Is there a lucky divine lolololz". I need one. haha

Other cools things I would want is a lucky bandos item, d claws, ags. I know you can't sell any of them but a lucky divine would be beast.

I don't see why it won't let you trade them, it's stupid.

Know what u do??

Go to the charm store in falador.. buy 10m worth of Shards.. Sell the shards to the Petstores in taverly or yanille.. for the same price for all:spongebob:

If u get the 10m u should definitely do that.. although u could just hope for the uncut onyx as it's tradeable and can be sold.

Also wtf is:

Swagger Stick 1 Very rare Not sold

Oh cool. And I think I've found a way to use this, yes, "cheat" this. If I figured this out already, probably won't last long..

I said that items would crash. Why?
If someone gets divine, and already has one, he will sell. When lower is the demand, lower the items get.

Was close to get a Katana ( wii ), but noooo…Jagex decided to give me a bucket. YES! –'

Let's see who can manage to get a good items from this wheel of Bad Luck.

Post them here! :D

Me neither :/
It seems that it's random, matter of luck, rare items are RARE.
Wonder if someone already had a divine from this …

So.. How many people are logging the gains?
The placement of rare, super-rare.. seems odd.
F2p account, I won the black longsword from this pic. There's a saradomin godsword in it.

If the "lucky" items are tradable then noobs can instantly get uber rich by doing little, if not nothing (clicking the red button )

But they aren't. Lucky/Rare items aren't tradeable.
