I originally had 200M and no rares. I fully intended on dropping Runescape all together and figured it couldn't hurt to try staking. Within the week I made 600M amassing my total worth to 800M. Staking was a blast and I decided to renew my membership solely because of it. With the money, I purchased the 4 rares depicted above. I will most likely sell the green h'ween mask to pay for construction. Indeed =P With your levels, you would make a fine addition to a dungoneering team ^.^ And i love your hunting level. It's just at the necessary level for farming jujus, and hasn't been trained past that point. Same with me, though i still need 8 more levels >.> Yup, hunter truly bores me. I will probably get it to 80, but I can't see any anything past that. Same with thieving.

Hey guys. Figured it was best to pour some of my cash that I made from staking into some skills. Got 99 fletching on Wednesday. Got 99 cooking yesterday. Got 99 herblore today. :) Pretty much all there is to it. Thanks. :thumbup:

Jeep Wrangler, although mine isn't a Rubi. [/hide]Thats what I want, except I want it a forest green color Ever had one before? Great vehicle, wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. Definitely getting a Willy's Jeep as my next ride. :)

Pics or it didn't happen. I hope you guys realize it's for the jeep, not me. :P There's a million and one different tops for the jeep. I currently have a hard top (winter) and a soft top (summer). The former is a hard plastic (and rarely aluminium) that is difficult to remove or put on, as it requires two persons to lift. The latter is a vinyl and fabric material that you can unlatch and fold down. A bikini top is usually a solid or mesh fabric material that straps to the roll cage, reducing the exposure to sun, but still giving occupants an 'open' feeling. The one I purchased can go on underneath the soft and hard tops so I don't have to remove it every time it's going to rain. Sorry to disappoint. :P

Oil executives.

Bought a bikini top; was getting kinda crispy at stop lights. :mellow:

I don't care about my weight, just my physique and well-being.

Legs? ;)

Yes, they act as a BoB and decrease the amount of times you have to run to a kiln.

You answered your own question. You can't make a profit when the outcome is 50/50. Anyone who says you can is subscribing to what's known as “gambler's fallacy”. The majority of these people are losing gamblers, the rest are lucky. They don't understand probablity and favour superstition, emotion and incorrectly applied math over real statistics and common sense... see below: This is an example of gambler's fallacy. Now what if we take the eleven game winning streak but change it to a losing streak? Then, what if we apply the infamous Martingale System? Suddenly we find ourselves facing a whopping 10240M bet for the original 10m return. Not sure how you can even come up with that number. You assume that the staker has 10240M to even stake. That system cannot and will not work for the average player. And of course it's fallacious, I even said "...it may seem silly, especially given actual rational though." Not sure what your point is. Exactly. The thought is that eventually, your odds at winning overcome the losses you've incurred and receive a massive profit. However, as the OP said, he had a bad streak and lost it all - which is exactly what can happen.

I went from 200M to 800M in about a week (patience is important in staking). I cannot disagree enough with Wicked's method of staking or any other 'double your bet' scheme. It may work for him, but as we have seen in General Discussion, he has, to my understanding, several billion to counteract any losing streaks. Never double your bet if you lose; increase by a marginal amount, but never twice your original offer. If you win, keep a consistent amount. For instance: Stake one: 10M Outcome: Win Stake two: 10M Outcome: Win Stake three: 10M Outcome: Win Stake four: 10M Outcome: Lose Stake five: 12M Outcome: Lose Stake six: 15M Outcome: Win Stake seven: 10M Outcome: lose Stake eight: 12M Outcome: Win And lastly, I know it may seem silly, especially given actual rational thought, but do what your intuition says. I won eleven stakes in a row (10M each, given the system above) and told my self that I should stop. A friend came along and influenced me to make high stakes (30M, 50M, etc) and I ended up losing all of the profit I had gained before; I was greedy. I then felt compelled to box my santa and lost that. I eventually returned to where I am, but not after boxing several H'ween masks and several hundred million.

Handbrake all the way.

Bought an easter for like 155M, now they're at nearly 230M! :shades:

That SUCKS :cry: . Can't even find any words to describe how much that sucks. But why do you stake all your cash? Or did you lose a couple of times in a row? I still have like 700M, but only like 1M in actual cash. -10 +12 -10 -12 +15 -10 -12 -13 -30/cleaned cash You just can't stop. :P

Lol, got my cash cleaned after posting. :P

[hide=9 Days Ago][/hide] Newest staking bank. Bought an Easter right afterwards. Might get 99 prayer with frost bones. :shades:

Not sure how when they are all running the same benchmarks. Far much better than "well, I have a feeling that this one is better so you should get this one." So far, my experience has proven that this feeling thing has been more reliable than the benchmarks. Do you really think the viruses in the benchmarks are the viruses people actually use? Huh? And people don't generally use viruses, but yes, I do. 400,000 up to date pieces of malware; much better than any other test that any single individual could produce.

Cleaned? :huh:

Yeah....what you don't see are all the losses. -10 -12m -50m -100/cleaned cash +2m -santa +108m -10 -80 -green +145m Worked my way back up, but I'm still down about ~100M from where I left off yesterday.

Which one do you think is better? I haven't kept myself current enough to tell you, to be honest, but I had been an Avira user for the last few years, and I feel it fell down and that it isn't a good antivirus anymore, and hasn't been in a while. I have Avast on my desktop, Avira on my old desktop (which I will be uninstalling soon for another one) and MSE on my laptop. For now I feel that Avast and MSE are pretty equal. Not really sure how you can "...feel it [falling] down..." According to AV Comparatives [PDF], not only did MSE get the slowest scanning time, but it missed far more pieces of malware when compared to Avira. In fact, about the only thing MSE scored well in was the number of false positives. In scanning speed and detection, Avast trumped both, but increased the number of false positives.

A little bump here yes, but does anyone keep track of disc prices? I'm finding it hard to get a good estimate.
