Sparhawke Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 A problem is brewing in Lumbridge this Thanksgiving. It seems that Phileas, the Lumbridge Sage, has happened upon some rather troubling manuscripts near his home and he needs your help to solve the mysteries they reveal.Solving the clues will prove a tough challenge as you pit your wits against a mysterious clue-setter and his secret network of contacts. Regardless, if you can stay the course and solve the clues over the next four days, you’ll certainly have proven your detective skills.For those with the steely determination and the requisite clue-solving abilities, a new item and emote will be yours for the claiming. Simply head over to the official Cryptic Clue Fest thread for your first clue and an explanation of what to expect, and then keep checking the thread each day of this holiday weekend (Thursday-Sunday) for subsequent clues.That’s not all this Thanksgiving, though. For anyone who’s not yet helped him out, the Lumbridge cook’s brother has some turkey-related shenanigans he’d like some help with. Either talk to the cook’s brother in Lumbridge Castle’s kitchen or check out this Knowledge Base page for more information.Good luck and happy Thanksgiving!If you're after something else to do between solving clues, our friends over at FunOrb have recently launched a single-player campaign for the RuneScape inspired game Armies of Gielinor. The God Wars are in full swing and the forces of Saradomin and Zamorak are engaged in a struggle for domination. Take control of the Zamorak horde as it enters the fray and battles for control of Morytania. This update is free-to-play for all and comprises of 17 mission of tactical action against some fiendishly clever opposition. Six Achievements are available for you to earn, so head over to FunOrb to try the game and see if you can claim Morytania for the forces of Zamorak.Mod Howes and Mod Mark HRuneScape Community ManagementandMod KorpzHead of FunOrb

MindArkantos Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) you cant officially start it you just get the items and talk to the person required to get the clue. Answers in Spoiler. Person: The guy in Lumbridge who's name starts with a Latch Items: 3 coils of Robe 5 Bananas 2 Buckets Edited November 26, 2009 by MindArkantos
djpailo Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Another pointless riddle that I can't solve. Makes me feel more stupid.
Sobend Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 The only clue I really couldn't find was who to talk to (I don't know much about the people in Lumbridge). I figured it out by talking to the person all of the higher leveled players were talking to, and that turned out to be the person. It wasn't really hard (well at least the first clue).
Ak-47 Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Use your brain. Making a youtube video on this with answers in a bit.
Justin Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Can I do this part,(the first clue) tomorrow? Or all the clues on sunday?
fmichael Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 you can complete them anytime in the 4 day period
the mon Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 I spent an hour running everywhere and couldn't find the guy ...and he was standing in the middle of lumbridge all that time -.- I just though it was another man all that time.
Popcorn Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 I dont quite undertand. Do i just collect the items, talk to the guy and wait?
Donwonton Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 I dont quite undertand.Do i just collect the items, talk to the guy and wait? You collect the items,have them in your inventory while talking to him.....
Klaus Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Can you still get cornicopias? I got 1 already...great in pvp!
dark deemed Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Can you still get cornicopias? I got 1 already...great in pvp! Yes you can get cornucopias as drops from chickens,seagulls,and other birds.You can only have 1 at a time though -.-
SoNew27 Posted November 26, 2009 Posted November 26, 2009 Haha, this one was good. The event with the cook was stupid for me cause I had already gotten the emote, nonetheless the 100+ damages were appreciated. (: As for the one with the clues, great stuff. At first I didn't know how it worked, but I figured it out pretty quickly. For the last item, I was stuck between the cows and the fruits so I carried both. I wasn't sure who the poor person was: I did it an emptyish world so there was no one to help (which I gladly enjoyed). So I just went to RunescapeWikia>Lumbridge>NPC's. I found the guy, got the clue for the next one, and figured out where the next NPC is pretty easily. Lol, ironically, when I went to close the window with the Lumbridge NPC article on RSWikia, I saw that it already had the information for the event on it (-.-). I look forward to tomorrow's clues and the ones after. Hope everyone's had a great Thanksgiving! (I sure did :) )
