We’ve read through all of the questions and sent them on to the relevant teams here at Jagex. Now it’s time for the first batch of answers from Jagex’s CEO, Mark Gerhard.

The questions answered in this batch deal with matters about RuneScape and Jagex as a whole. We’ve posted the questions and answers on this forum thread, so you can discuss the answers.

Mark Gerhard's (Mod MMG) live Q&A session will be held on this forum thread tonight, running from 8-10pm (GMT).

Remember that this is just the first batch of answers, and that other questions will be covered in different teams’ Q&A sessions.

I’d also like to emphasise how important these sessions are to us. While we’re all busy working on RuneScape and other Jagex games, we know it's important to make time for our players to share their views and ask us questions on a whole range of areas. After all, you are the community, and we want to know what you want to know.

Everyone loves a good YouTube video, right? Well, following the success of our last machinima competition it's fair to say many people love to make them too. To that end, we will be launching the Orb of Oculus camera tool next week to allow even more creativity for RuneScape filmmakers, which should come in handy for those looking to enter the competition!

The first machinima competition was pretty straightforward: make a short machinima using RuneScape. This time, however, we're introducing a theme to spice things up a bit. We want you to make us an advert for something within RuneScape!

It could be anything from a location to a shop, a monster or an item, or even a whole skill. Alternatively, you may want to advertise a RuneScape business (e.g. your restaurant or wrestling federation) or a tournament you have planned. In short, you can advertise just about anything, so long as it exists within RuneScape.

The winner will receive lifetime membership to RuneScape, a tour of the studio to meet the people who make RuneScape happen, and an invitation to a Jagex event to be held later this year. The event is very much in the planning stages at the moment, but we'll be sure to elaborate as the event takes shape. Meanwhile, four runners-up will each receive lifetime RuneScape membership.

If all of this has got your creative juices flowing and you think there’s a place for you in Gielinor's advertising agency, then you should visit this dedicated competition thread for more details, competition rules, J-mod support and an FAQ. Alternatively, you can see the rules and an example advertisement made by last year's winner, Excl, on our YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/runescape.

We’ll be posting a selection of entries on the channel throughout the course of the competition too, so if you love your machinima, show your support of the RuneScape video-making community by subscribing to the channel and telling them!

The best of luck to you all. May the competition commence!

I can't wait to see what Machinimas come to the table this year. Maybe I'll try to make one, but I doubt I will. 4/5

I'm very excited to see all the good machinima's also. I definetly won't be making one as i can't even crop a bank. Gl to you if you decide to make one.

Can't wait to see the machinima videos especially since the orb of oculus should be coming out on monday.

I've said it once, I'll say it again. The machinima contests on Runescape are usually disappointing. They are all about making a machinima, and no real content that I liked. Maybe this contest will be different, but I doubt it.

I wonder what happens if someone from outside the UK wins the competition? I'm assuming Jagex won't pay travel bills. There should be some sort of other gift if it's impossible for you to travel overseas for whatever they have planned at Jagex HQ, with a runner-up getting the ability to attend if the winner can't.

I have a feeling that Jagex would cover travel expenses. If they didn't people might be mad saying "Only good if you live in the UK" or something like that. Probably see a dramatic drop in entries as a result.
