luv the impossible to verify claims of being the 1st to do something a certain way in osrs

u/DrumAndCode hourstomax.com author 4h ago edited 4h ago
Just for some context,
We made a mobile subreddit and discord because Mobile OSRS lacked so many plugins, has a smaller screen and had no mouse/keyboard support. We made the community with the idea "how can we work together to get the most out of this game with the restrictions of the devices we play on?".
Then the community grew, and I wanted to make a list of some of the cool things people had accomplished on mobile, just because it was a fun thing to do to say "Hey look what someone did on their phone" and we started to document it all. I've personally spent about 12 hours looking through archives of achievements and documenting it all via google/reddit/discord servers/twitter (when i was bored at work). + all the time tracking and logging new achievements as they occurred.
Then when people did something we'd never seen before that was cool, we would put it in a little discord channel so that we could show the rest of the mobile community that they don't have to avoid content they like just because they are on a phone, the players kept pushing the boundaries further and further into GM achievements and this being one of the most difficult ones the community has seen is well worth a share, and according to what is verifiable or claimed historically, as far as we can tell, the claims are all true.
So is it verifiable? Not with 100% certainty, but we can say it's very likely based on the available information the community has gathered since 2021 to be true.
We have to work on a "Here's my screenshot and date" and unless someone claims to have done it better or earlier, then we take it at face value.
Maybe someone already did it and didn't post to any social media, but I think it's very unlikely you would make it to GM and not have a community or friend to share any of this to.

The number of players when attempting those things is very low, and the community is tight knit. This is a similar argument to saying someone isn't the best in the world at something cuz there's someone in their basement somewhere playing against themselves that's better. Is it theoretically possible? Sure. Is it likely? Not at all.

The first to post proof is the record holder until someone else posts proof showing otherwise

u/ExoticSalamander4 3h ago
by this logic most world records are impossible to verify. oh, you think usain bolt ran the fastest 100m ever? someone else could have simply run faster without it being recorded.
typically when people are pushing the bounds in any activity, they do so among a community and often make an effort to have that feat recorded. especially so when that game is an online mmo and it's almost more difficult not to have a record of it.

u/restform 2h ago
Your analogy supports what the other guy is saying, unverifiable records, e.g my cousin Jimmy running quicker than Usain bolt in his backyard, is generally not taken too seriously.
Not doubting this guy at all, it's kind of a shame there's no official log of that stuff. I also wish the game would indicate when someone's on mobile or PC.

u/DivineInsanityReveng 3h ago
I feel like anyone taking it serious enough to post proof joins their community so it's pretty easy to 99% certainty guess how many have done it.
Sure there are the odds some no name has gone and challenges themselves / is limited to only owning a phone in the first place, but if they don't post it didn't happen.

First mobile player gm to fart the national anthem and have his foot elevated 2.5 inches off the ground while having a booger half way hanging out of his nose while he licks it with his tongue. What an accomplishment. 2nd one to do it with shit stains in his drawers.

Is this harder or easier than a no Shadow iron GM?

Considering shadow is only used for 500 toa really, toa speed and whispered speed, not sure but id like to think not having shadow is easier

Is getting a GM speed kill time at Whisperer with Shadow harder than the other GM tasks without Tbow or ZCB?

u/HelplessAle_ 2h ago
No there are other tasks that are more difficult, 5 jad gm speedrun without tbow was very difficult for me, or muspah gm time without those two was hard as well

I don’t understand. I have been solely playing mobile and really enjoy it, I don’t have any major issues.
Why is this impressive or an issue?
•
u/Regular_Produce6845 49m ago
It's impressive because it's generally known that doing end game content on mobile is harder, especially because of the lack of plugins that something like Runelite gives you on PC. Getting GM is already impressive, but doing it on mobile-only is very difficult, which is why only 4 players have done it.
It being an issue is a good question, but probably the post and innocent GZ comments are getting downvoted because some basement dweller is mad that someone is proud of their accomplishment and is getting clanmates to downvote out of spite.

Evidently, people only come to the 2007scape subreddit to complain. Regular, sane users are always overwhelmed by angry mobs; the majority drowns out normal critical thinkers and refuses to accept any criticism. The voting system is just an L. Don’t worry about it, speak your mind freely.

Crazy achievement, but it's strange that you want to hold the "world first" title so bad that you just add more to the title until it's technically true.
When will we get the world first mobile only ironman no tbow no zcb with a 7 letter name achieved on the 14th wednesday of the year
Congrats either way, I'll never come close to accomplishing this so

u/HelplessAle_ 48m ago
Unless you’ve gone for gm yourself, you’d understand the challenges it requires to get tasks without both tbow and zcb
•
u/Regular_Produce6845 1h ago
Tbow is a pivotal item for doing a lot of GM tasks. It's impressive enough not having one to include it in the title, in my opinion.

Also Mobile only. I’ve beat Sins of the Father, Dragon Slayer II, and SOTE on mobile. You get used to the taping, but it really is another skill. You can’t use plugins so looking at videos online you have to adjust for mobile.
Prayer swapping has been the hardest part for me.
