Hi there...

I just did the January newsletter survey and got 80% correct...

Except I answered every question correctly.

Question 1 asks you how many minigames were released in 2006. The "right" answer is 3, according to the survey.

Minigames released in 2006:

Temple Trekking (28th March 2006) - https://runescape.wiki/w/Temple_Trekking

Pest Control (18th April 2006) - https://runescape.wiki/w/Pest_Control

Trouble Brewing (4th July 2006) - https://runescape.wiki/w/Trouble_Brewing

Pyramid Plunder (17th July 2006) - https://runescape.wiki/w/Pyramid_Plunder

Does that look like 3 to you? NO. 4 minigames were released in 2006 Jagex. FOUR.

Question 9 asks you "Which two gods featured in the 2013 World Event?"

The correct answer is "Bandos and Armadyl"...

The actual correct answer is: Zamorak and Saradomin.

There were 2 (TWO) world events in 2013.

The ONLY one of the two that was fully in 2013 was World Event 1, running from 22nd July 2013 - 2nd October 2013. The second world event spilled into 2014 (11th December 2013 - 21st January 2014), and was thus not exclusively "the 2013 world event". ( https://runescape.wiki/w/World_event ), unlike the first one including Zamorak and Saradomin.

Could ya please fix the survey, jmods?

Flaired it as bug coz idk what else to flair it as. The answers you seem to think are correct simply are not.

EDIT: Added an imgur album with the answers to those two questions. https://imgur.com/a/B9JV5T0

Hey - apologies for this. I hold my hand up.

These were questions taken from the 19th birthday QuizKit stream on January 7th, and the World Event one was flagged during the stream - I'd forgotten that and passed them straight on to our email team without letting them know.

I have to admit, I'd grabbed some of the answers from the Wiki's 'years' pages with all the updates on them, and must have missed World Event 1 being in 2013, and looking at my notes, I'd missed Pest Control for the minigames question.

I'll ask if we can edit the answers.

Minus the errors, can I ask if this kind of thing you find enjoyable to do in our newsletters? If so I'll let the email team know and we'll do more of these (hopefully with the correct answers this time!)

EDIT: answers are fixed and we've changed the WE question.
