I'm supposed to aim for a set kill count? :-k

[hide=Kharils skirt chest][/hide]

Guthan broke while down there... glad it wasn't while at kings lol. [hide=Dharoks legs chest][/hide]

let it go kiddo... SOME of us don't pay attention to every person who sees us and starts a convo... and here's part of the reason I DON'T pay attention... [hide=Emote Spam FTL][/hide] sad thing is I don't even watch for these pics... i just look down and my whole box is full :wall: :wall:

Did some more barrows after that. Had to leave 99 cuz I was getting too much attention, and it was WAY too crowded... was frustrating not being able to move around. [hide=Torags helmet chest][/hide] Got TONS of runes over the last couple days (see page 1 and look at the difference in total rune gains), but no drops since that Torags helm. I got recruited for a DK trip and got my dragon axe back :D My team of 3 also got another axe, mud staff, and archer ring (all 3 from the same person lol), so I got to keep my axe and they split up that stuff :D [hide=Dragon Axe drop][/hide]

Did another trip for my TET Slave Auction winner, since on our first we got nothing :( Sadly, almost immediately into the trip, we had some noob lurer (*cough* his RSN doesn't start with Socom *cough* and doesn't end in 170 *cough*) trying to kill her. She got away, but apparently he was hurt enough he had to leave too. I stayed and went solo a while, when yet ANOTHER noob tried to lure on ME. They failed miserably and ran away with their tail between their legs. An hour or so later, our first noob returns again and I didn't have the food to give him the chance to waste his time. I took my winner's drop and gave it to her. I think the most pathetic thing about these lurers is they were both 124... You'd think somebody that high in level would actually be respectable, but I guess that's too much to expect anymore. [hide=DK drop for Miss War18][/hide] I also had a gift from a secret helper, and gave her what barrows stuff i still had in bank :D [hide=Bonus gifts for Miss War18][/hide]

was on an hour or so before i got called into work early, then an hour or so after. Didn't get anything good yet till this :D [hide=Double Item Chest][/hide] My first double item chest :thumbsup: few hours later, I got some unwanted gains :( [hide=Random death at chest][/hide] That person was in there as I was collecting my items from chest, then next thing I know they're from well over ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâý to dead. I wasn't paying attention enough to catch his name, so if you read this mystery man, let me know. I turned my chat on shortly after, and didn't get any messages from people I didn't know, and even log spammed it a bit just so if anybody had added me they'd realize it, but nothing. Sat there in bank for about 5 minutes before I decided to finally go to bed. Can't say I didn't try :wall:

thanks :) 2nd trip tonight: [hide=Dharoks helmet chest][/hide]

No, I only do 1 run then I tele. I find it that most times I can go home, pray, and bank about just as fast as I can tele and return, not to mention I use no restores. While that is my inventory each trip, I don't really use it. I only pray whenever I get Dharok or Ahrims in tunnel, sometimes Karil (the other day I had him with whip and granite shield on, and went through 10+ lobs... he was just hittin 20 after 20), but otherwise I don't even touch the restores, and usually my spear keeps me from using any lobs.

It was directed at me, for no good reason. I don't feel like re-explaining the whole situation, but normally in that case if I caught the name I wouldn't keep the stuff. I'm using far less deaths than I'm gaining, so I have no regrets using dart. Also, I'm aiming to get 99 HP *before* I get an attack/defense level, so using the magic there helps me close that gap. I think I'm back in shape to use whip on controlled when I start slayer again. UPDATE On Christmas night, after all the festivities were over and I came home from work (BLAH!), I did barrows until I got an item. This item was Torags Hammers... nothin that great but I was tired enough to log out then. Next day I had some time to kill before going to work, or maybe it was after. I'm so tired today I don't really remember (long day at work due to morning meeting then getting called in early). But what I do remember is the time I played after getting hammers, I got a VERACS HELM on my first trip down :D I did a few more runs and got some *amazing* rune trips (multiple trips with over 100k gp worth of just runes, plus other items), but nothing significant alone. Then TODAY, I headed over to world 1 to repurchase the yews I had sold in order to pay for 99 prayer (about 14-15k total). Sadly for my case, but not for the spirit of the game, the macroers seem to have been hindered in their yew-cutting (Go Jagex, go Jagex!), so it took a lot longer to buy 14k than it took me to buy my initial 50k+. Oh well, at least it's out of the way. But for now I sleep. Been going since 8 AM this morning and it's now 1 AM. We'll see what luck the random number generators bring me in my adventures tomorrow night :D

around 90

I won a game of castle wars when I was the only person on the team!!!! the person on the other team logged out 2 minutes into the game

To the responses about being overly crowded, I extended the image about as much as possible while still fitting within the current space allowed by the interface. Of course, in this picture it is not pretty to the eye, but that's for the people at Jagex (who get paid for doing this) to take care of. This is just to demonstrate how wide I could make it without increasing the current space used for that part of the interface:

This would only slow them from creating them automatically. It would do nothing to stop them from autoing in game. Much like with the old sleeping attempt, this would be easy to bypass and still have accounts made by machine.

Same way it used to, just extra empty background space with nothing there (probably at the bottom) I agree that this is cramped. The idea was to show form more than anything. Jagex could easily make the menu wider to let things fit. I'll see about playing with it later for a less cramped menu.

It'll collect any time you don't wear a plate :D It's quite smart/efficient to use it any time you'll be doing things outside of normal armor :D

just look at the top rows before the chest items, then i fill up rest on lobsters and take out 5 so I'll have space in my inventory.

Going to world 2 to sell that junk now: Enchanted set: 550k rune plate (g): 350k Rune Scimmy: 25k Whip: 1870k Rune med: 10k Obby Cape: 250k DDP: 30k Cash: 2197k D Med: 400k Obby Shield: 300k (kept tho) TOTAL: 5982k (Not too shabby for a 5.5m item :D) While there sold brassard for 1.6m :D Chainskirts: 1450k for the two of 'em so in a couple short days of barrows (only on a few hours total) now up 9m :D

If a mod deletes those posts it's on their call, not my request. It doesn't bother me any. My kill count isn't anything set... I just kill the little guys to heal while i wait for the last brother and head to the chest, and it's typically 10-15. here's the latest development :D [hide=Guthan Spear from chest!!][/hide] [hide=Guthan Spear trade][/hide] The kid was muted on his other account, so he had me take d med and shield first before trading the other account, since he didn't have a legal way to transfer the items. He wanted to give them to me after I sold him spear... but I don't have much trust for players already muted once.

i'll try to keep tabs on this. maybe it'll motivate me to make gp faster :D

Filling in the gaps! and getting for 99 construction! ~~~~~ 99 prayer was costly, but I really only care about replacing the following items I sold: D Chain: Regained 01/04/07 :D Dragon Axe: Regained 01/01/07 Yews for 99 Firemaking: Regained 12/27/06 (pg 2) Fury Amulet: Regained 01/04/07 Whip: REGAINED :D While doing barrows, I thought I'd keep track of my Runes Rune Gains 12/28/06 Type of Rune -- Starting Runes -- Current Runes ~][~ GAINS Mind ------------------ 38,138 ----------- 43,603 ----------- 5,465 Chaos ----------------- 1,500 ------------- 6,732 ----------- 5,232 Death ----------------- 5,845 ------------- 6,364 ------------ 519 Blood ------------------- 286 -------------- 1,741 ----------- 1,455 Roughly 1.9 million GP worth of runes via barrows as of 12/28/06 (total) Rune Gains 01/01/07 Type of Rune -- Starting Runes -- Current Runes ~][~ GAINS Mind ------------------ 38,138 ----------- 49,864 ----------- 11,726 Chaos ----------------- 1,500 ------------- 13,320 ----------- 11,820 Death ----------------- 5,845 ------------- 8,499 ------------ 2,654 Blood ------------------- 286 -------------- 4,252 ----------- 3,966 Roughly 5.1 million GP worth of runes via barrows as of 01/01/07 From Dag King trips (slave master and personal), I have used 2084 minds and 521 deaths. These are added into my gains from barrows, as they were spent elsewhere. I am not COMPLETELY going gungho on making GP, and just trying to do it via skills. I'd kill KQ for a chain myself, but I have no luck with her (did over 100 trips with no chain before, got burnt out) I did Dag Kings for Slave Auction and got no drops, but a Sara Skirt clue, which I gave to my master (so no wealth for me lol) After that though (told her I'd do another trip since we got nothing), I started by doing slayer since I was only 50k from a level whenever I did my prayer goal. Luckily on that task I recovered the whip: My next task was steel dragons, which I figured being just 12 I'd give it a shot. To my surprise I got a nice red skirt: Then I decided to do some thieving at pyramid plunder while my friend alched all the bodies i crafted with his hides for my crafting level. I got bored before I got the level, but fortunately: Kept working on slayer again after that, and am trying to get 99 hp before any melee combat levels. I thought I'd try maging at barrows since I never really messed with that before, and figured with 99 prayer I'd be pretty set getting through the tombs. The setup I'm doing it with is as follows: Full Guthan Mind Runes/Death runes (slayer dart) Earth/Air/Law runes (house tele) 2 super restores (barely touch 'em) Slayer staff Karils bow/bolt racks Whip obby shield I leave 5 spaces empty and fill rest with lobsters. I pray at home, tele to Canifis, bank, go down to barrows, kill the brothers in their coffins going from Dharok, Ahrim, Karil, Guthan, Torag (skipping whoever is in the tunnel till i kill the rest, and killin Verac in tunnel). I usually get through 4 of the brothers on prayer in their tombs, and either run out at very end of 4th or part way through the 5th. I just started it last night and so far have gotten 1 Veracs Brassard (somehow missed screenshot) Then Guthan legs: I came back later to do more barrows after i got done with things at home, till I got this :D Drops so far: 1 Veracs Brassard ][ 1 Veracs Helm 2 Guthans Chainskirts ][ 1 Guthans Warspear 2 Torags Hammers ][ 1 Torags Helm 1 Dharoks Legs ][ 1 Dharoks Plate ][ 1 Dharoks Helm 1 Karils Skirt No Ahrims Items Profit right now isn't as fast as Dag Kings, but it's a lot simpler and easier to do alone. I might try to see how fast i can make GP later once I actually stop letting myself get distracted. lol

Awesome work, keep it up! :D

It's not that hard to be polite, take 10 seconds out of playing a game, and show it to them either. I'm actually really surprised at the amount of people who are so annoyed about it. You all say you're too "busy" to show the cape.. It's a game, i'm sure if you take some time to show people an emote, the game will still be there afterwards.. :roll: Despite my sig, I do think it's naive for somebody to expect to not be asked to do the emote, especially when they have a less common 99 such as smithing, construction, farming, etc that they choose to wear. I often don't respond (partly cuz i don't pay attention to chat most the time I play the game) but I don't think stopping to show them is as "easy" as you make it sound. If you're working on a skill, many times you can't just stop in the middle of it to do an emote (e.g. middle of mining an ore, killing a monster, etc). Even if you can, it's a serious hindrance if you try to show every single person who asks. Even once you satisfy the people following you asking for it, once you're done those who weren't paying attention before are now noticing the end of it and wanting you to "Do it again!" Then even if you decide to be nice and spend time doing that bit for a while, as soon as you resume what you were doing, you'll have a newcomer wanting to see it and it just starts all over again. So yeah, doing it won't slow you down once... but trying to appease everybody would keep you from getting any leveling done. I tend to ignore chat while I'm actively working on something (not intentionally ignoring, it just ends up happening), but if I'm just standing still in a bank or something while paying attention to another screen or something in my apartment that distracted me, I'll sit in the bank clickin on the emote for people who i know were probably asking. (guess that was a long way of saying you can't show everybody without stopping what you're doing altogether).

sound effects = an AFKers lifesaver :D

I tried once man..... it's so frickin hard.
