Making your own alcohol?
Ethanol is an alcohol! Yes, but it's not drinkable in that form.. not safely anyway. It needs fermenting. Hence, this guys Darwin Award

Favorite game series?
GTA has always been my favourite series... each game was awesome for its time. The Guild Wars series was excellent as well with Factions and Nightsfall

Making your own alcohol?
I remember reading a Darwin Award story about some redneck who died from making his own alcohol. He mixed milk with ethanol (coz it sounds like alcohol I suppose), and proceeded to drink it. Surprisingly, the drink didn't kill him. Instead, sometime after having finished his ingenious cocktail, he began to feel ill, and vomited directly onto his fireplace... burned to death.

your opinon on telemarketers.
Ok, everyone has to make a living somehow, but this is one living I absolutely cannot abide. I despise people contacting me in my OWN HOME and try to sell me stuff, be it a telesales or door caller. I'm amazed that in this day of human rights, that this has not been outlawed. It's simply not fair to be bullied in your own home by salemen. You know what really grinds my gears though... I had to disconnect my telephone line recently as I was receiving calls during the early hours of the morning from Indian call centres (who are obviously in different time zones). Jesus Christ! I tried everything... "Put your manager on now!", "Remove me from your database immediately", "I'm on TPS, you're not allowed to call me", "Sorry, but Mr blank died last year, please stop calling". None of these work at all. Oh, and I even changed my number, which worked for a short time. My only solution was to remove the phoneline and use my mobile for all calls. So erm.... I don't like telesale very much lol

Save 3000 strangers OR 1 person you love?
Easy, the person I love. If they're strangers, then it's not gonna hurt me. Everytime I pick up the paper or read the news, seems like tens of thousands of strangers are being killed each day anyway... my 3,000 wouldn't even make page 6.

The what are you wearing today thread..
Got a day off work... so I refuse to get dressed lol. Boxers, a Celtic t-shirt and my giant Homer slippers. :)

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
I'm an avid reader myself, but I've never bothered with the Harry Potter stuff... anyone I know who has read it says it's Lord of the Rings for the mentally challanged lol.
-
If you could kill any NPC...
Ooo, Ellis the tanner in Al Kharid... why won't he stand still! Getting really annoyed chasing him around that bloody table lol
-
Dragon Bone Prices Jump
I wouldn't complain at 1.7k... I remember back when they were 2.5k per bone (before the autobots)
-
Not allowed to put rs vids on Youtube?
I didn't know this either... shame coz I've just started getting into making my own vids. I disagree with Jagex on this one... I really don't see the harm in posting a instruction video of the game. Maybe I'm being a bit harsh when I say this, but Jagex are the nazis of the gaming industry now. No fan sites, no videos etc... not very condusive to fun gaming. :(

Playing with the Hiscores
Seems prayer is my rarest 99 then... a bit disappointed that it's becoming more and more common. Think i'll work on something a bit rarer then... like crafting or construction. anyway, good job compiling the list.
-
How will the new prayers affect pking?
I think it's going to be a nightmare for Abyss RCers now. They're already disadvantaged being basically unarmed, having zero prayer and skulled... but now they've got this to deal with. Nice one Jagex.
-
New whip max hit!
Hmm, I like the new prayer bonus, but it drains prayer points like a pope on a mission lol... I ain't spending any more prayer pots on something like this when doing regular slaying or hunting... the only use I can think of is on quest monsters or minigames.
-
Cannon or Crystal Bow?
The cannon is definately faster exp in certain areas... for example, you can earn upwards of 100k experience per hour at Dagannoths under the lighthouse. However, this tears through your ammo at an awful rate and you don't earn any hitpoint experience. Depending on how much you currently pay for a crystal bow, I'd maybe recommend it instead. After a few purchases, the renewal price comes down to 180k, and if you can afford it, I'd maybe buy more than one seed to save you having to visit so often. Having said this, it is now widely known that chins are the best ranging exp when used at Ape Atol. They are expensive however, so I recommend collecting these yourself instead of buying them (despite your temporary wealth)

how long from 72 wc
That's about 2.3m exp required from lvl 72-85. At an average of say 40k exp per hour, that'd take 57 hours roughly? Perhaps someone could refine this, as it's been a while since I did any woodcutting

Misc. Kingdom And The Abyss
The benefits of Abyssal crafting far outweigh the risk. Not only is it much faster for a run, but there is also the matter of maintaining pouches which at certain levels more than double your nat making capacity per run. You learn to deal with PKers... the mage is only at lvl 5-6 so this reduces the number of players who can attack you. And if worse comes to worse.. you can always hop worlds. Another good tip is to use off-peak servers. For example, I find the UK worlds fill up with Pkers around about 5pm-10pm and crafting becomes ill-advised at these hours on those worlds... so again, hop.

85+ slayer, getting abyssals on assignment
I definately got them at lvl 85 too. I have noticed that they are a slightly less common task now however. I recon Jagex are still trying to reduce the number of whips coming into the game.
