Picking up the question from MB45: What does it mean to complete RuneScape?

Addressing the issue of comp’s inconsistency

Wilderness Flash Events: not on trim or comp except by proxy via Civil War II (participation rather than completion)
Hidey-hole trim req
Minigames are just in a weird place; the only group minigames you're forced to play are Big Chinchompa (of all things), Barbarian Assault (normal mode, for the music track), Castle Wars, and Fishing Trawler (both for achievement diaries; and Trawler is theoretically soloable) everything else has been removed or made buyable, so why are these left?
With Reaper Crew being potentially added to trim it raises questions because 100% Telos is already on trim and it’s a toss-up as to whether or not 100% Zamorak will be added to trim. This is also seen with 100% Arch-Glacor being on trim because 100% Telos is on trim, but 100% Telos introduces new mechanics, 100% Arch-Glacor is just more Arch-Glacor.
Poll questions do not clarify inconsistencies, in fact, add to them. Refer back to discussion RE: Reaper and MQPC

The Unwelcome Guests quest now awards 1 quest point and is a requirement for the Quest Cape.
The items required to build the Tier 1 Guardhouse have now been added to the Quest Journal.
Removed some safespots when fighting Zemouregal's undead.
