Killerwatts.... wtf?!
IIRC correctly a strong fact about killer watts (which led to the mage base melee theory) was they are electric and as such do more damage to those in metallic armour.

barrows armour
Didn't they update it a few months back now so that at 0 if you have inventory space it does in fact un-weild itself? I coulda sworn it happened in an "upgrade week" not that it makes a huge amount of difference as whether you are wearing it or not at 0 it has no stats.

MTK question
Your math is flawed in the basis of HOW mtk takes from the coffers It will only pay max when it is 750k+ This means the last day it does 75k takes coffers down to 675k (assuming it lands perfectly on 750k) So 7m - 675k = 6,325,000 So 6,325,000gp can be spent before it stops taking 75k 6,325,000/75,000 = 84.333333 Therefore 84 days can be run at 75k from 7mil, of course assuming that the question means how many properly run days. Even if it did not mean properly run (75k) days ur math would be wrong. As extending on mine the 84 days leaves: 700k (84*75k = 6.3m so u have 25k left of the possible spend plus the 675k deducted for not being usable at 75k rate) But yeah that means: 1) 70k paid 630k left 2) 63k - 567k 3) 56.7k - 510,300 4) 51,030 - 459,270 5) 45,927 - 413,343 6) 41,334 - 372,009 7) 37,200 - 334,809 8) 33,480 - 301,329 9) 30,132 - 271,197 10) 27,119 - 244,078 11) 24,407 - 219,671 12) 21,967 - 197,704 13) 19,770 - 177,934 14) 17,793 - 160,141 15) 16,014 - 144,127 16) 14,412 - 129,715 17) 12,971 - 116,774 18) 11,677 - 105,067 19) 10,506 - 94,561 20) 9,456 - 85,105 21) 8,510 - 76,595 22) 7,659 - 68,936 23) 6,893 - 62,043 24) 6,204 - 55,839 25) 5,583 - 50,256 26) 5,025 - 45,231 27) 4,523 - 40,708 28) 4,070 - 36,638 29) 3,663 - 32,975 30) 3,297 - 29,878 31) 2,987 - 26,891 32) 2,689 - 24,202 33) 2,420 - 21,782 etc. Would get another ~60 days this way if u worked it all the way thru. Which would mean ~144 as bare minimum Given tht the above seems to take ~20 to lose 1 digit on the spend we could theoretical guess ~40 to get into hundreds ~60 to get into tens ~80 to get into singles Then due to lack of decimals probably ~10 (so ~90 total) to finally exhaust to 0 Which would give a grand total of ~174 days

Brand new computer..
Yeah the professional build is clearly more amateur to the extreme. Open her up and just push all the plugs to make sure they r connected well would be obvious first step, sounds like some wires might've got loose in transit or were jsut never plugged on right.

tourist trap, quest is stuck
And what does the in-game quest log say you should be doing?

tourist trap, quest is stuck
Well as far as I can see you should be able to tell him the jokes if you pick the correct dialogues. If you "fail" a dialogue segment of a quest they reset themselves to the start of the conversation.

tourist trap, quest is stuck
"8: Escaping Items Required: Slave robes Talk to the cart driver, and tell him some jokes: "What did one wheel say to the other? 'See you around!'" "What goes around comes around" "Fired, no... Shot, maybe!" "In for a penny, in for a pound!" He will begin to laugh and ask you what you need. Say, "Well, it's like this..." and tell him that there is a prison riot starting in ten minutes, and ask him to take you with him. He will agree and tell you to hurry up and get in. You must jump on by searching the cart before he will leave. Now you will be back outside with Ana in a barrel which is in your inventory. Head back to Shantay's Pass and then use the barrel with Ana's mother. Talk to her and she will reward you."

MTK question
84 in theory but approval under ~85% = fail. And iirc u lose 1% a day, so over 15 days with no visitation = fail. And if you're visiting you may as well collect.

Quick ZMI question...
You mean contact npc not pouch repair. Also as covered before pouch repair is much better (though it does take a while to unlock) and near impossible to not get the runes for.

barrows armour
Yeah the number is essentially %. But it jumps from 100 to 75 to 50 to 25 to 0. It wears out at 0 when it loses all stats and weildability. Repair any time you like really the cost is per %. So repair twice at 50 costs same as once at 0. Worth remembering armour repair stand in POH offers reduced cost dependant on your smithing level up to 50%

MTK question
1.2m is the bare minimum for weekly collection. It means day 7 will take you down to 675k though so no room for forgetting.

Is slavery wrong?
You're still working on the assumption that these things are good, probably because that's what we do. Obviously, we are unparalleled. These lesser beasts couldn't possibly have chosen to abstain from raping the earth. No, it is without a doubt that they are incapable of doing these things which all great beings must surely desire to do. They obviously lack the ability to communicate, to cooperate, and to think such noble thoughts as we do. It's scientific facts that show they aren't as advanced or capable as humans. They don't have the mental capacity. And I never claimed that all humans do is good, clearly we have mucked up thought to an extent the issues lie in a legacy of things begun/done before we knew better opposed to intentional destruction. (obv a few notable exceptions here like the rainforests etc.)

Quick ZMI question...
Familar no. All rc pouches yes. Skipping even the small rc pouch puts a surprisingly large dent in the xp rate since you can fill them all so fast with no extra banking these days.

Is slavery wrong?
Respectfully, I disagree. This idea is alarmingly close to the assumption that anything different from one's own culture is somehow inferior. I'm not sure how failing to form anything you recognize as civilization is any less arbitrary than (for lack of a more thoroughly-beaten horse) skin color. Because it is quite clear no other species has developed such an extensive spoken/oral language and written language or has, to the same degree, shaped the world to suit them. A few do use tools, but their tools are just singular objects used for a new purpose not some complexly fashioned and purpose made. I by no means think animals should be treated badly and some species definitely do amazing and wondrous things; but you can't really class them as equals because they just aren't evolved to the same degree as a human being is. And it's not as if it's an arbitrarily invented divided the divide between human and animal is scientifically there it can be quantified and proven.

Is slavery wrong?
I think you are referring to servants or general labourers (eg farm labourers etc).They offer a whole range of occupations starting from the kind 0 qualification stuff through to highly qualified that encompasses all of what servants were; it where butlers and maids and cleaners etc all stem from. Also @Orpheus alas nothing there heaps of records about. It's not like its THAT ancient history, there's still people who were slaves alive (just about, or there were a few years bk) and there definitely many of their children/grand children who were born shortly after abolition. If you speak to an expert in the field they could probably tell you loads of figures and statistics. And ugh Affirmative action stuff annoys me no end. It's basically the reverse of old school racism in disguise; eg there's some american fund thing (iirc) to help black people go to college, when they tried to make a white equivalent it was deemed racist; yet the black one isn't because its helping kids who were never slaves and never had unequal rights but just happen to of been born into a race that was enslaved a few hundred years back.

Is slavery wrong?
With your sense of morality, I hope you mean. Any sense of morality that devalues any subset of humans to the state that they can treated as animals and thus become slave is highly flawed and does not deserve status as "morality" in modern times. And who the hell are you to determine what "morality" is? Do you know what's universally "right" and "wrong"? The key word is universal here. Not for everything, but I can say without a shadow of a doubt it is wrong to treat any human as a slave. There is no reason at all to treat any human as fundamentally lesser than any other human. Yes humans are animals but that's a whole other issue, I don;t see any other animal forming civilisations and such so there's a line to be drawn between how they are treated and how a human is treated.

Quick ZMI question...
Yeah from about 70ish rc you should always get the runes to bank. Worth keeping astrals and laws out though as they can be a bit patchy in rate.. Plus for epic win u want the new rc pouch repair spell. Much faster to cast than npc contact. Makes pouches last 5 times longer (so 5 times less casting) and its almsot 100% guranteed to get the 1 cosmic u need to cast it on any run.

Is slavery wrong?
Again, that depends on your point of view. Right now, everyone would, without a doubt, say 'yes it is immoral', but back then it wasn't thought immoral by those who owned slaves. But no one is going to argue that slavery is still moral in the twenty-first century. Well yeah obvious it wasn't wrong at the time considered to be at the time. But given the question "is slavery wrong?" Past context is irrelevant, only modern context as "is" marks present tense. Also slavery was seen as moral back then as blacks were deem racially inferior and heathen and it was considered a kind act to bring them to civilisation and teach them to speak "god's language" and the bible etc.

Is slavery wrong?
Slavery is quite obviously wrong to anyone with a sense of morality. All humans are people not a commodity or tool to be traded or sold.

Capes of distinction
Only the maxed cape (all 99s) and compleitionist cape (all 9s + 120 + bunch of other stuff) are worth it stat wise.

MTK >750k+ really necessary?
No profit margin remains constant. Basically you look at mtk as a "shop" Each resource it supplies has a set price. And each bonus item appears every X normal items. Like I think it's 100 coal produces 1 gem. Each day workers take money (75k for this example) 75k between 15 workers is 5k each. Approval rating is then considered. If approval is 50% each worker spends 50% of their 5k on resources and 50% on themselves (eg no outcome) But let's assume approval is 100% Full 75k is spent on resources of you're choice. If coffers only took say 15k. Each worker would only get 1k to spend. And as such would only return 1k of resources. Profit margin would be the same as the resource cost the same amounts, just you have 15 times less of it and therefore 15 times less profit. The only variable that can affect it is length of time left due to rounding of the decimal resources. Maples as an example anything under like a month 9 workers produce same amount of nests as 10, as rs always rounds down. Anything over that and the decimals reach 1.0something meaning you get the 1 extra log necessary to trigger 1 more nest.

How do you deal with stress?
It is generally true the better off you are the more potential you have to be stressed. Just because more stuff = more stuff to stress about. If you have cleaning staff: Them not doing their job right = stress. If you don;t have cleaning staff: Cleaning not done right = bah I couldn't be bothered. If you have no computer you can't be stressed at a broken computer. etc. Also for me I have several ways of dealing with stress. My natural reaction is too eat unfortunately; my 2nd reaction if I stop myself eatting is to smoke. My 3rd is to listen to music and write angry poetry lol.
