Scroll of life + ranarrs = win
i don't mind that you went off topic since there were a few helpful answers already given. i wouldn't even consider it going off topic- it was a valid point and an intriguing argument on your part. if my results were accurate though, i'm much more inclined to do snapdragons in the future. also, here is my logic if i have 1000 seeds at 10% return: from the first 1000 seeds, 100 back from those 100, 10 back from those 10, 1 back total from 1000 seeds: 111

Scroll of life + ranarrs = win
i can assure you that i did not have more than 80 ranarrs in my bank, if any. still, i am intrigued to do another 50 or possibly 100 seed test considering that i am on summer vacation now. i shall report my results more formally and accurately.

Fishing or Woodcutting?
wcing ivy is really, really fast if your an afker. i highly recommend it as soon as you get your hands on a dragon axe. if you feel bad about no profit then grow some herbs or something

The death of making money by skilling.
i usually make a mil or two per day (i usually calculate my money per day due to my lax nature) just doing some broad bolt fletching and farming runs. back in the day when i first created this account crafting nats was the stuff though. skillers have always taken a backseat to merchants but i don't think boss hunting really caught on until GWD came out (even i remember that). i mean, those kq and kbd hunters, though i once envied them, are simply a humerous memory.

Scroll of life + ranarrs = win
the only non-ranarr seed i got through the entire thing was a guam. and it was only once.

Scroll of life + ranarrs = win
i can't verify the numbers. perhaps there is a slight error but the runs did take me A LOT longer than my usual 50 or so runs.. i was for sure getting around at least a 20% return.

Scroll of life + ranarrs = win
yeah well i got that scroll of life and thought hey how about i buy 50 ranarr seeds to test it out? i'm left with 665 ranarrs and one extra seed still growing. that is an average of 13.3 ranarrs per original seed. i haven't worked out my exact profit yet but if i was to sell the ranarrs (not even considering the coconuts and cactus spines) i would be somewhere near 250% profit (or is it 150% profit?). lets just say i doubled my original investment by one and a half times. now, although the money and exp are nice (got 70 farming last night) i need to figure out what to do with these ranarrs. do i just sell em or should i turn them into p pots with about 1mil loss (from net profit). with the current herbalore expenses would that be considered logical? please offer any advice.

Requesting picture and header
please go to ':here' if you don't need an introduction hello. this is unrunescape related artwork and i have turned to the tip.it forums for assistance. i am the leader of a white rap group in my area (somewhat of a joke) but lately we started getting a lot more views, better feedback, and a local recording guy formally requested us to record at his place. we weren't really expecting to get as popular as we have. another member has gotten us die-cut stickers made from some guy on a skiing website and we're now working on songs for our first mixtape which will include 2 classic songs and 3-5 new songs . we will sell them with stickers for $5. were getting a lot of people to go out and support us but , :here what we need now is a myspace/facebook default picture (graphic) and a LARGE header picture (that appears before anything) that will be at the top of our myspace. neither of these pictures will include our faces. they will simply include the letters E W B (link in my sig) i know its asking a lot but i would really appreciate it if someone could do this for me. specifics: accepted colors are electric blue, white, and black. other any colors should be approved first. idea: i was thinkting a W with an E stemming from one side and a B from the other example: 3WB except the I part of the E and B are merged with the W looking at the forum rules i'd rather not have a pixel one anyway, i doubt anyone will be up to this, but if you are we'll credit you permanently on the picture, on our myspace/facebook for as long as we use the header, and give you a shout out in our next song if you submit many different designs that are sick. feel free to ask questions

advice for those of you taking finals
hello thank you all for your kind words. today i checked the book and it was completely dry but the front cover was still discolored in spots. i told my teacher that it fell into the sink in the bathroom sometime during the year and, since i had a book cover on it, i didn't notice until now. she bought it. though on the inside it was obvious that the book number was rubbed out, i told her that i was sure it was my book and offered no explanation. she doesn't like me too much (she was a little pissed off but obviously preoccupied), but i was surprised that she told me i would be off the hook if EVERYBODY handed their books in and nobody reported a missing/stolen book. she told me to wait for announcements at the end of the second exam, and if my name was called, there was a problem. after my bio exam my name wasn't called on announcements. thank god. i even went into her room later to tell her to have a happy summer. phew unfortunatly i could not do this because on the back page of the book (which she checks aswell) is an obvious list of everyone who has had the book. of course, only my name was there so that wouldn't have worked. i think the combination of the fact that i had a booksock on it and that she was too busy to care greatly helped me out.

advice for those of you taking finals
hello i spent all weekend studying for finals. however it caused me to forget that on the inside of the front cover i wrote "[bleep] teachers name" in pen. its worth mentioning that these are new textbooks. i just realized it tonight and i have to turn my book in tomorrow. so first i used an entire eraser trying to erase it.. a little bit came off. then i decided that i would pour water onto it. so i poured a little water onto a bottle cap and put it on the effected area and the water didnt penetrate it just beaded up and sat there. so then i decide to go grab some lemon juice. my mom has one of those lemon-shaped containers that contains strong citrus.. i was sure it would work. so after i found that in the pantry and after i went to the bathroom i came back to find the water had not only soaked in but had bled through to the front cover. not only did it bleed through but the ink or whatever material was printed on front of this $80 textbook had faded in large, uneven blotches. it also stained my computer test (my computer desk now has reverse print reading "AMCAN NATI "(american nation). i got a few napkins and tried to dry SOMETHINGup. nothing really worked. so i finally think "AHA! ill just use my thumb and rub off the graffitti now that its soaked. it worked perfect! it really just took so much weight off my shoulders.. until i realized that i also rubbed off the book number, which i needed to hand to book in. fml. moral of the story: don't write stuff about teachers in books.. at least not in pen.

what to do while fletching bolts?
I'm not saying it takes me much more than 30 minutes to fletch that many bolts. its the whole concept of what to do while making bolts that this thread is about. notice- i have almost 15.5 mil fletching exp, i'm not about to be told to leave bolts alone. I don't buy the bolts to make cash or to get exp, i just buy them because i love fletching and it makes me feel more productive if i fletch while training skills or just standing around. I'm simply wondering what other people suggest/do while fletching. don't judge me. edit: and i'm currently doing the farm runs cause i just got that scroll of life thing and i'm trying to use it for all its worth. also got 70 farming yesterday and ranarrs/snaps make great profits, and we all could use some extra gp

what to do while fletching bolts?
thank you for your suggestions, heres what i've done in the past: thzaar fight pits slayer with ranged, turns out to be very click intensive staking at the duel arena.. falconry i'll have to get my summoning up soon since i have thousands of charms laying around in my bank. and as a side note i use mousekeys if the only thing i'm doing is fletching bolts, but if i'm trying to do something else turning off pointer precision kills me.

what to do while fletching bolts?
hi i'm fletching like 30k broad bolts but i feel like an inefficient noob just standing at the GE.. what should i do while fletching (already doing farm runs). i don't care how efficient it is just anything to make it a little more fun or productive.

The Running Thread
And my average mile now is like 5:45, over the past 3 nights running with the new shoes, I've just been tired lately tbh not really wanting to run at all. new shoes are always great. i'm holding out until july to get a new pair cause theres a new store opening in my city then and i'd like to snag some deals. besides i'm only doing 3-5 mile days now to build a base and get back into it.

Full slayer helm vs. Void
the full slayer helm is only good out of slayer if you need mage defense. if your 80+ in range/atk/str then void can be very helpful against level 150- monsters, even higher in some cases. edit: didn't see that you said range. no its horrible buy an armadyl helm or something
