Burners
Type of burners makes no difference. Oak burners will do fine.

Penguin Hide & Seek
That chat (world60pengs, w60 penguins, ...) has a thread on RSOF under Distractions and diversions, called "penguin locations v65" (quickfind : 75-76-795-59949158).

How much would I lose from...
I tend to bank at CW, using bank all. No hassle with fire runes or needing to fill up your bank, and it's usually less crowded there. It's a little slower than banking at ZMI, but not by all that much. I'd say ZMi breaks even from lvl65 and up (rough estimate).

Slayer Points/Saradomin Sword
Regarding the broad bolts, do it if you either rangeslay alot and dont want to pay extra for bolts or want the fletching xp. Otherwise, the slayer dart runes sell for a pretty penny. (I just went ahead and bought all the rewards for the sake of completion.) I feel lucky having bought my sara sword when they were at 5.6mil, yet i really dont use it all that much. However, for some tasks (gargoyles, waterfiends) the ss makes a good difference, and there's always plenty of ppl wanting to borrow it, so if you have the spare cash and you slay alot, i'd get one. I wouldnt worry about the possible price fluctuations too much - the use or ownership of the sword will easily cover any price drops.

Best weapon for iron dragons?
The new ardougne achievement cape adds another +6 stab bonus, on top of the bonus from LBS. It's got a +6 prayer bonus as well, so it's perfect for metal dragons.

It's the greek letter "thèta". No idea why it's there.

Clue scrolls
Hellhounds are known to drop lvl3 clues very fast, pickpocketing H.A.M. members will get you a lvl1 clue fast (i recently learned they can be pretty profitable - good source for god pages - there's a guide in or near AOW).

[Special Edition] Tip.It Times: 16 Aug 2009 - Quests!
Nice idea, and a very nice read overall. Any chance at a fictional next week ? After all, it's been 3 weeks, and the Times just doesnt feel complete without one.

Worst Slayer Tasks
I only kill fire giants in the smoky well - no dogs, just xp.

The lost city: Arposandra
While we're at it, it looks more like a plural to me. "The eyes of Glouph of the Grand Tree ..." maybe, as in the cute little creature spies he had running around ? Don't have my gnome dictionnary handy for a try at the rest. Is this riddle still unsolved ?

help please 58-70farming and 61-70mining
For farming, willows and curry trees are pretty cheap. Buy a lot of baskets in a farming shop. For willows : buy cooking apples at the ge, fill 1 basket, pay to protect. For curries you need 5 baskets of bananas : don't buy them, just glory to karamja & fill 25 baskets. That's for cheapo's like myself. You'll have 70 farming in no time (i got 80 that way, pretty much). Meanwhile, farm herbs for money. If you have access to Manage Thy Kingdom - set some workers to maples : they bring in plenty of good tree seeds. Consider growing calquats instead of selling them, they're great xp. My first post on the Grand Forum : hope it was helpful.
