RSBANDBUpdate! - The RuneScape Podcast From Runescape Bits & Bytes

RSBANDBUpdate! 119 - I Would Not Put Myself Into a Group

This week we have a shorter show for you all. Partly due to the fact that there was no “game content” update this week. Anyways it was still a pretty good show if I do say so myself. The poll was definitely thought provoking. Also as a footnote, last week Libsyn (our host) was having some problems with the caching system. So if you weren’t able to download 118 that’s why. The problem appears to be fixed.

RSBANDBUpdate! 118 - The Gower Archive

While recording this fine edition of RSBANDBUpdate! we came across the Gower Archive. It has loads of great information about the creator of Runescape. We of course owe the life of this podcast to him. Please note we closed off the show with Internet People! Enjoy! (Sorry that we kept going off topic… it’s been a long week)
