The 2005 Anniversary was a series of RuneScape 2 events held to celebrate the 2nd birthday of the Wilderness Guardians. The actual events took place in 2006, almost 2 months later than expected[1] - though it was still a considerable success, with a series of 15 different events being held over the course of 5 days in February of 2006. 3 additional days were planned, but His Lordship was unable to host them.[2]
Contents
Day One
Day One consisted of 4 events: The Veteran War, The Firefest, The Public Drop Party, and The Conga Line. The day lasted over two and half hours, and the majority of the events were open to the public. A video of the Veteran War was produced, but is believed to be lost to history.[3]
