(2022) I don't understand the PVP rota

This thread was added on November 09, 2022, with posts from JagexRoq.

Original Post

So I'm from Australia and enjoy playing LMS. For the last few days the wiki has said that world 390 was an active Australian LMS competitive world (and still says that now), though if you looked in the world switcher it actually was not. In the most recent newspost by jagex they say that the 390 Aus LMS world has just been deactivated, but actually, if you look at the world switcher, it appears it that world 390 has just been activated and is now a competitive LMS world. But, if I go and have a look at Ferrox Enclave in world 390 right now, there is not a single person there.

So, two questions:
* How does the PVP rota work, and why do the wiki, jagex newsposts, and the actual world switcher all say completely different things?
* When, if ever, can I play LMS on Australian ping?

Thanks.

The world rota switches with every update - typically a weekly basis.

In a week where we do not update, we do not reboot & switch the rota. At Christmas we open up every world.

Chances are the time where we have not updated in the week the rota in the newspost and the wiki has gone out of sync.

Were the PvP worlds always all active around Christmas or is that a new feature?

Has always been the case the last few years and something we intend to do every year.
