Welcome! Hey I'm xTheAncientx and welcome to my RS blog. I have been playing Runescape since somewhere in mid 2002 on the same account I have today. Over the years I've played pretty casually. Occasionally I have bought members for a month or two, but never really went all out. I've recently discovered I have some more time on my hands so I figured I'd try and level up a bit. The Low-Down Here are my stats today: My current goal is to train my Attack and Defense levels to 80. I am doing this in the Stronghold of Security (what can I say, I love training Lvl 2 Fleshies). I have 8 days left of membership (I may get another one), so I'm gathering a bunch of herbs to sell. Hopefully I can make it in the next few days :D

Alright thanks.

Can you only switch slayer assignments at Burthorpe or is it with just another slayer master?

ah thanks very much

My current assignment are shades but Im not sure what exactly to kill besides the random event shades. Thanks.

Training and making money are two different things. For training, spiders on 3rd level of the SOS are very nice. As for making money, you could: a) Pick flax, turn into bowstrings, and sell B) Mine coal and sell c) Fish lobby and sell and so on.

For my Intro. to Computer Sciences class, we had to write a program that we/others would use for our midterm project. Being into Runescape, I decided to write a Mining Calculator from scratch. Its still very basic, and roughly coded in my opinion but it works. I think I will write a calculator for all the other skills and then try and work on a GUI version of them later down the road. Heres the code for the program: # Runescape Mining Calculator # Coded by Dan Collins # October 23rd 2007 def main(): print "This program allows the user to enter his current experience," print "desired level, and the ore he will be mining to calculate how" print "many ores he would have to mine to reach that desired level." print # This is a python dictonary used for storing the # levels and the corresponding experience points levelexp = { 1 : 0, 2 : 83, 3 : 174, 4 : 276, 5 : 388, 6 : 512, 7 : 650, \ 8 : 801, 9 : 969, 10 : 1154, 11 : 1358, 12 : 1584, 13 : 1833, \ 14 : 2107, 15 : 2411, 16 : 2746, 17 : 3115, 18 : 3523, 19 : 3973, \ 20 : 4470, 21 : 5018, 22 : 5624, 23 : 6291, 24 : 7028, 25: 7842, \ 26 : 8740, 27 : 9730, 28 : 10824, 29 : 12031, 30 : 13363, 31 : 14833, \ 32 : 16456, 33 : 18247, 34 : 20224, 35 : 22406, 36 : 24815, \ 37 : 27473, 38 : 30408, 39 : 33648, 40 : 37224, 41 : 41171, \ 42 : 45529, 43 : 50339, 44 : 55649, 45 : 61512, 46 : 67893, \ 47 : 75127, 48 : 83014, 49 : 91721, 50 : 101333, 51 : 111945, \ 52 : 123660, 53 : 136594, 54 : 150872, 55 : 166636, 56 : 184040, \ 57 : 203254, 58 : 224466, 59 : 247886, 60 : 273742, 61 : 302288, \ 62 : 333804, 63 : 368599, 64 : 407015, 65 : 449428, 66 : 496254, \ 67 : 547953, 68 : 605032, 69 : 668051, 70 : 737627, 71 : 814445, \ 72 : 899257, 73 : 992895, 74 : 1096278, 75 : 1210421, 76 : 1336443, \ 77 : 1475581, 78 : 1629200, 79 : 1798808, 80 : 1986068, 81 : 2192818, \ 82 : 2421087, 83 : 2673114, 84 : 2951373, 85 : 3258594, 86 : 3597792, \ 87 : 3972294, 88 : 4385776, 89 : 4842295, 90 : 5346332, 91 : 5902831, \ 92 : 6517253, 93 : 7195629, 94 : 7944614, 95 : 8771558, 96 : 9684577, \ 97 : 10692629, 98 : 11805606, 99 : 13034431 } # This is a python dictonary used for storing the # names of the ores and the experience they give oreexp = { 'Rune Essence' : 5, 'Clay' : 5, 'Copper' : 17.5, 'Tin' : 17.5, 'Blurite' : 17.5, \ 'Limestone' : 26.5, 'Iron' : 35, 'Silver' : 40, 'Coal' : 50, 'Gold' : 65, \ 'Mithril' : 80, 'Adamant' : 95, 'Runite' : 125} # Prompts user for his/her current mining experience, # desired level, and ore intended to mine currentxp = input("Please enter your current experience: ") targetlvl = input("Please enter the desired level you are aiming to reach: ") oremining = raw_input("Please enter the ore you wish to mine to that level: ") # Formulas for getting the experience points until target level # and ores until target level exptillvl = levelexp.get(targetlvl) - currentxp orestillvl = round((levelexp.get(targetlvl) - currentxp) / oreexp.get(oremining)) print "You have", exptillvl, "experience left to level", targetlvl, "and", orestillvl, oremining, "ores left to reach that level." main() NOTE: the last print statement appears to be on 2 lines but in the editor its actually written on two. Also the dictionaries look a little weird in the format of the post :( Feel free to make any suggestions on how to make it work more efficiently. You can reach me on here or my email ([email protected]).

Ankous are ok but if you want it fast without wasting as much food as you do with the Ankous the spiders on the 3rd are really nice. They are aggressive and they dont hurt bad so you can browse through forums while training.

Is there a significant difference in the time it takes you to fish a full load of shark at level 85 than it doest at 81?

Thanks, you're a good man

Haha not for me :( Sk8nbail is still stuck ingame but i can log into all my alts.....when will this madness end?

Anyone need to do it right now? Theres a part where you have to have a friend in either the Black Arm Gang and the Pheonix Gang (depend on which one your in) and I need a bud to help me out. Im not sure which gang im in so im going to have to go check.

Yeah my worry about the Abyss was the pkers and if its not too much long i thought about just getting the glider to there and then back to the bank in al kharid unless theres a better way...

Im getting ready to start crafting nats but before I wanted to ask what ways you guys take whether its the Fairy Rings to the altar, the Abbyss, Glider, etc. Im only combat lvl 79 and Im not able to do the quest for fairy rings so my options are kinda limited. If anyone can give me some tips on this id appreciate it.

World 16, Air Power Crafting (if you have the money and ess) Power crafting fire runes using rings of dueling I used both these options. Both fast, both using some money

It really depends on your style of learning. I learn by watching and analyzing code and understanding what part of code does what. Once I understand "Why" code works it becomes alot easier to learn. Also depends on if this is your first language or if youve had some previous knowledge of code. I learned on BASIC and after that taught myself C then C++. Hoped I helped any, Good Luck!

It may work for you im not sure but my working world is 87.

Yeah i just world hopped until i found one that i could log on to. But yeah the friendslist is dead :'(

Ive used PbP a couple times. Just take it easy. Try logging on a members server to see if you browser just had a problem loading the page. Also be aware that the login servers are being screwy lately. Im not sure if this will have any effect on the enter pin service. If you wrote it down then just wait a while if your members didnt go through and try again. A good tip is always right down that pin number. I hope ive helped in some way. sk8nbail

Banned for the mention of Chuck Norris....Steven Segall is better

yeah its sad that ive had my main for so long and not have even 1 99 skill yet. When i made sk8nbail you got to choose whether to be a Warrior, Mage, Miner/Smither....i went with Miner/Smither.

i dont know. i might not play it at all. I played RS mainly because of the Authentic sprite characters from RSC...

Highlighters fumes can get you high, the others just make u slightly light headed WTD between IRA and the IRS?

Banned for having the most generic name man could think of...
