So after being thrown into a world with EoC with no prior experience, I've finally understood stuff enough to piece together solid QBD runs. I'm doing pretty good killing this thing, and today marks the first time I've been able to kill her since like....forever. Seriously. I only killed her once before and that was for comp. And I cheated. I used range. And who uses ranged? Ain't nobody got time fo dat. Anyways here's the video. I'm just happy I can finally reclaim my dignity from this giant worm thing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCpTZfwBoCU&feature=youtu.be -
I really haven't been using this feature of TIF. Looking back at my past entries...wow, so much has changed since then. It's both comforting and discomforting at the same time. Kinda hard to explain. So I've been starting to make a few video blogs to record and share my experiences in RS since I came back from quiting (that didn't last very long did it?). Today, I was able to return my completionist cape to its rightful place on my backside. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BD6tCUkCKk&feature=plcp

Thread escalation plz. =D> "Give me something to believe in 'Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore I wonder if it even makes a difference to try Yeah, so this is goodbye" ~ "Makes Me Wonder", Maroon 5 As some of you may have known, my main account, Mister Sonic, was banned yesterday due to being falsely accused of "macro goldfarming". However, the fact that I don't even use something as simple as mousekeys pretty much means I have never touched a bot in my life. This really made me wonder, what circumstances had happened that caused me to receive the permanent ban? It just doesn't make sense, someone with a 0 blackmark history shouldn't be instantaneously skyrocketing to permban status. So I came up with a bunch of crackpot theories... 1. Jagex did a massive IP sweep for those living in the China region. As we all know, China is infamous for its gold selling on many MMORPG's everywhere, with even more crackpot theories like 24/7 sweatshops or farming on 8 accounts at once. Unfortunately most IP's in China are shared (ever wonder how the Great Firewall of No Facebook/Youtube/Twitter stopped nearly everyone in China from accessing those sites?), and I happen to share an IP from a gold farmer near my region. 2. Jagex may presumably be undergoing another experimental mass-ban which caught a few innocents along the way. Remember the repeatedly spying on a penguin glitch? Which caused like half the community to be banned? I'm thinking that something similar to this is happening to Botany Bay. And somehow, just somehow, I accidentally got caught in the net. 3. Jagex focuses on heavily botted training areas first. Well, the 2 days before I got banned, I was trying to get 89 mining at LRC, which just so happens to have MILLIONS of bots training together at the same time. Probably a WBM or someone similar decided to do a report sweep of everyone he/she sees at the botting site. --- Of course, these are just all theoretical WMG's (Wild Mass Guesses, que TVTropes :3). Seeing how I got banned in the most senseless way, one really gets suspicious of what REALLY goes around when Jagex said they have an "improved" bot detection system. Because if it starts tripping up some false positives, there is already a mechanical flaw in the system. Thoughts? Agree or disagree? You can pass me off as being a whiny permbanned noob, I don't really mind :P

[spoiler=A introduction of myself, and a little overview of this Blog! :)]Hello guys, girls, and all fellow (or former) Runescape players! My real name is Derrick, but most people call me D-Rock and they think its me refering to my genitelia... so as a joke my RS name is Im Mcnasty. Anyways, back to the point... I've played for awhile now but i've NEVER set goals for myself. I usually just say "I want this." So today, i'm creating a guideline for myself in which I'm going to follow until all of my goals are reached instead of mindlessly running around and wasting time.

While i was just leveling up my construction skill, someone came in and killed me, making drop all my stuff and sending me back to lumbridge. 1. why can players enter your house while you are in build mode? 2. why is it i dropped my stuff while i was building, instead of just getting sent out of my house? 3. Why can't i decide the pvp area in my house? 4. Why does someone do this in the first place? i didn't lose anything of value, just was a mild set back, it just pisses me off that this happened

About Me: A look inside the Generator, aka boring stuff]Sup. I'm Zaaps/Zaap Cannon/Faaptastic/Pokemon Master/whatever, but you can also call me Bobby (but none of you will). I am currently 17 and an upcoming senior in High School. I've been playing Runescape since like 2003/2004 (inb4underageB&) so I've been around, but my current account wasn't created until the end of 2004. I'M 18 AND LEGAL [email protected]@@@@@ I'm a college freshman now, believe it or not, at Amherst College. Dat shit cray. As far are stuff outside of Runescape, aka [cabbage]game, goes, I'm also a varsity and club swimmer, so basically I'm swimming year round. My main stroke is backstroke and I am NOT a distance swimmer, lol. Over a 200 and I might as well be shot in the pool. I'm also a competitive Pokemon player and Advance Wars player. A little about each: I've played Pokemon since I was little and remember beating the crap out of Pokemon Yellow and Crystal. Competitive battling is a whole different world, though. Still, I've been able to become good at it and it's something I like to do for fun. Also tends to make me say random Pokemon-related things when I'm talking, but usually it's not very effective... Tip.It Pokemon Thread If you want to have a fun or competitive battle with me, just drop me a message. I do own Pokemon White and I have a decent team on it. More often, though, I'll prefer to play on Pokemon Online, which can be downloaded here. My username on all servers is Zaaps1, just tell me or something if you want to battle. Advance Wars I didn't really get into until recently, maybe earlier this year, so I'm still sorta a newbie at it. Very recently I've entered the competitive sphere here as well, and I gotta say it's a lot of fun lol. I do my competitive battles on Advance Wars by Web, also with the username Zaaps1, and I'm willing to start battles with anyone there as well. So yeah basically if you want to battle me on either one of those just tell me and we'll work something out. I find both a ton of fun so I'm almost always willing. Got bored of that shit. Screw it. Pokemon is still awesome though. But Zaaps/Zaap/Faap/Bobby! Tell us MORE about yourself! OK KIDS SURE THING!!! I was born in China, actually, and moved to the United States when I was about 3. Nearly my entire family is from China as well, so I'm sorta Asian, I guess. I currently live in New York State, and only a few miles away from NYC. Hmm, I think that's about it. Any questions???[/hide] [hide=2. Runescape-related nonsense, eg. goals and [cabbage]] So yeah I don't actually play this game anymore but I still follow it. Depending on how future updates turn out, I may very well head back. Basically my long term goal here is to get the Completionist Cape. I'm not really THAT far from it, and it's a challenging but reasonable goal, I'd say. That being said idk how motivated I'll be, since I don't really have many buyables left, so maxing will consist of long, slow, grinding. Still, it's good to have a goal to direct my playing progress, so I'll leave it there unless I think of something better. I'm now pretty freakin close to it. Need 120 DG and 99 Fishing, which I'll probably get together via c2 fishing to replace my c1s. COMP CAPED AND COOL Current stats: My slightly-shorter than long-term goal is to get 120 dungeoneering. My slightly-shorter than slightly-shorter than long-term goal is to be good at effigyscape. And that's pretty much directing how I'm training my non-dungeoneering skills. [/hide] [hide=3.

A sample: A wild sol inquires into the harpies....the results [image blocked; please upload at an approved host.] List of 100 Essential Harpie Facts October 23, 2011: The Harpies complete their first narrative epics, written collectively between the harpies, 3 words at a time. "Once there was a harpie who had a magical sex organ that was larger than ltk's bank and he had tiny wings that couldn't kick Santa's ass. The end was neigh for Rudolph who clearly had a red nose and little confidence. "Hello there Armorare," said Rudolph as Zaaps looted his swiss bank account. "Wtf you [harpie]," Rudolph noticing that zaaps had little sexymonkeys in his deep back pockets, took out his oversized piece of bio-medically engineered chocolate and gave it to obt. He got his swag up in Kelsey and was like "wanna rub my non-harpie fake wing?" Kelsey just wanted to play RuneScape. Obt just lost the game trololol. Sadly the harpies decided to kill nex and her four robed [non-harpies]. Nex then dropped three harpy babies. those babies were Zaaps 2, Armorare 2, and Ke$ha. Next, Nex crowned greens king but couldn't because he was farming. But then greens realized that farming was for [garden tools] and really expensive. if only armorare would have sex then harpies would be able to faap the world and Squab would suck mere's dick which would be epic and mere would orgasm all over the tip forums. It felt like Christmas. Until Tripsis suddenly joined the fray, I know now that I am a harpie, even though I keep losing the magic potato of green's first creation, The Great Gatsby. Just then, a wild Kimberly appeared! With a powerful ring to rule the entire world and a masterball containing exotic lolita dresses. She turned to Tripsis to pick her favorite dress. Now wielding a magic spoon full of chocolate, she decided it was time for Sonikku to get laid by a shark. After a very painful session of pin the tail on the K4ylan, Green blew up in 4 pieces. Mere ejaculated ferociously but got distracted by the pretty colours of the Faap Cannon as it charged up and fired amourously. Sadly he had Zaaps picking his yellow ball filled with Cadbury Creme Garlic Bratwurst Sausages. Mere got off that hot pony and sang Winter into a kinky microphone that looked like a whip. If only Zaaps had acquired gratuitous clothing to make sexy reccis out thin air...what a sexy thought. It gave LTK 91 range and Zaaps failed and i want big booty [bleep]es yeah. Little [bleep]es get [bleep]ed, we don't want no skinny [bleep]es, we like big booty [bleep]es. And that's why Harpies>the world. Armorare is faapical." On October 16, 2011, for 20 minutes, there was a war between penguins and harpies on epic proportions. The penguins fought valiantly, but...

The rest of the article can be found here: http://www.theatlant...ons-law/267247/# I think this presents an interesting idea in terms of the bot makers Jagex prosecuted. If something like this is to go through, even though its in the states, it redefines the way you can handle things. And truly making bots and the like is breaking the ToS, "No foul" has truly happened to Jagex, they mess up the ingame economy but that doesn't hurt Jagex as a company. Unless you can argue that they have lost customers but I'm not sure how that would hold up.

I made that thread in the forum and it was closed by a pmod who wrote: Quick find code: 285-286-393-64371896 I can't see a single ethnic minority person in any video (I haven't seen them all so I might be wrong). But even so, why aren't there more ethnic minority people employed by Jagex because surely they must get many applicants from all backgrounds (and for job applciations in the UK you are required to provide your ethnicity (as far as I am aware). This is NOT a thread about positive discrimination. It is really a question on are there just not enough ethnic minority people capable in programming applying for Jagex or is there really indeed some form of institutional racism going on? What do you guys think? Please keep this civil and for heavens sake, any mod, just don't close it. This is a genuine question and I think it is a question that should be asked because I for one do find it amazing, having lived in London, that very few or indeed no one of ethnic minority is employed by Jagex?

In the open is a quickchat line. This is all very interesting, lol. Certainly a step in the right direction for Jagex for stopping gambling. -

I'm looking for an item to wear in the neck slot that is either gold or white that is noticeable. I've already tried out the gold jewelry, but none of them are really what I'm looking for. If any of you guys have any ideas or suggestions, I'd like to hear them since I'm kind of at a loss at the moment. Thanks.

Video discussing my thoughts in more detail here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLsgSca5bK0&feature=youtu.be October looks like it's going to be an exciting month. Nothing ground-breaking, but everything is a welcome and interesting update. Top mentions are: KBD: Old boss revamps are always bound to revive dead content, especially something as old as the KBD which literally has not been exclusively touched in years. Should boost both QBD and KBD popularity with the ornament kit drop. Finally, I am really looking forward to the new lore introduced. I'll probably go out and kill KBD a few times (if possible granted the high accessibility and low difficulty of the KBD) just to find out about it first hand. H'ween Event: I forgot to mention in the video, but I do believe this year's holiday event is the first event where Jagex is offering rewards beyond typical cosmetic items in the form of the ecto-whatever-crusher. It's not a significant item, as the bonecrusher itself isn't very big, but it should be a nice little thing to have. Not really anything else special, although Jagex also seems to be going away from the Grim Reaper theme of Halloween and overall making less of a big deal about this seasonal event. May just be because there's two this month. Eh. Solomon's Store: Not all worthy mentions are good ones. I could rant on about the increased emphasis on clearly unpopular microtransactions, but instead I'll comment on how Jagex is focusing increasingly on their latest microtransaction method. Notice the progression from loyalty store -> SoF -> Solomon's, and how they've slowly put more weight on the newer one while easing off the older ones.

Tip.it has created something that is likely the most useful thing I've ever seen (for this era of Runescape, anyway) in terms of discussing Jagex and their intentions, acitvity, and their financial goals. My opinion may vary from yours, of course, so take that first line with some Morton's :D. Anyway, I had come across and contributed to a few topics regarding Jagex's finances, bots in general, membership and microtransactions. A small part of it was the bots, but I think at this point I could start a separate post for it. Here's a pic of Tip.it's http://open.tip.it/high-score-stats Check the dates on it for references on when my pic was taken And one of the last 24 hours' updated graph: What I said when I posted the first picture originally: The most recent "bot bust" would be the 730k-ish accounts removed from the hiscores as shown on the 2nd picture. Aside from that, drop-off points currently show about 150k players removed from the hiscores. The peak number of players on hiscores in the first picture is about 1500k~. Again, on the 2nd picture, the peak is a flatline 2M+ accounts available to be shown on the hiscores (the limit is 2M period). As I thought, and still assume, Jagex is banning only what is absolutely necessary, and over the past 3 months they have allowed at least 200k accounts by based on the lowest drops on each pic. Of course, not every account there is a bot, but I don't think I'd believe 200,000 new NON-BOT players have subscribed to Runescape in the last 3 months.. Beyond all this jibber-jabber and opinionated bullcrap I've posted is some actual info. What is Tip.it's forum users' take on it, and how do you feel about the situation(s) involving bots? Edit: sorry for the messed up pics/urls. Haven't used Tif in a long while, and this new crap is bugging out on me. -

Hello Tip It, Well, I'm getting all of my Skills to level 80, or higher. I've only got a few skills to which are Farming, Summoning, Slayer & Construction. I am going to be working on Construction first, then Farming and Slayer. Then after that summoning. But can you please tell me how to get the most experience out of farming and where the best place to go is and that isn't to expensive. Farming takes ages and I need to know how to get the most experience. My Farming level is 71. Thanks, Skyro. (Qorx) :)

Tip.It Guides lacking substance/updated info/extensive info
Ren posted a topic in Website Discussion
Tip.It guides lack content. I'm not really an avid gamer anymore but certain things that I checked weren't updated or as clear as I wish. I'm making a complaint now because it's been years with very little change to the site (granted new updates like gano area guide and nex, etc.). For example: http://www.tip.it/ru...ng_guide.htm#FT It lacks detail on areas, XPrates, etc. Not just the most popular, but abstract areas brand new players could either know about or the more "veteran players" that later on if it's changed to be good use (Beefy bill and Karamja exchanger NPC's, for example). Some areas may be even unpopulated or the spawn areas for that gathering may be shorter distance between than others. The fish guide, my example, lacks specification on rivers. Which rivers? All rivers, literally? Which area content is F2P and which is P2P? Which parts of the guide are F2P and P2P unless color-labeled like so? It's just a big hassle (me switching from F2P to P2P gameplay all the time due to having multiple accounts) and not knowing which will either waste the most time, I.E. powerfishing herring, over something like exchanging Tuna+Swords. It'd be great to have color-labeled XP/h or something like that for gathering skill guides. I saw one guide like that and it was very helpful. It aimed towards lower-end players', mid-level cash/lvlup-concentrated players' and the higher level players' areas. ---- 2nd Example: http://www.tip.it/ru...2monster_id=436 This is (I believe) ALL monsters in the Tip.It Bestiary. NONE show a drop rate for specific items :(. I, personally, think this would be a step up. It gives much more detailed info, very accurate info, and would compete with the Rswikia articles that exist. I'm not saying people won't think you're taking ideas and content from other sites, moreso just expanding your normal site with what was already available. People question credibility with Rswikia because it can be edited by anyone. At least Tip.It has a review of sorts, and if it's wrong, it likely will be fixed by someone trusted. It's what makes Tip.It stand out..But then Rswikia has more info than Tip.It and I guess more info accessability. Please improve open.tip.it/ to something more than just a graphically overhauled version of Tip.It. It's exactly what Jagex did. After all, shouldn't Tip.It be considered the most comprehensive and accurate fansite, not just for the 'noobs'? -
So i got banned for botting. Then I got unbanned after 10 tweets, 1 ambler, and one response. GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Hiya, I'm Solemn, but my friends call me Tyler! I started my adventure as Axelzjr in 2005, I've made many friends, most leave and very few stick around. I've always came back to Runescape as a way to socialize and even vent at times. My first few years I never played efficiently ( efficiency, wut is this?), and so I've played catch up on a few skills after returning to the game in May of 2012. I enjoy anime, FPS, RPGs, board games, and skyping! -
Ok, so we have two choices here: We can either play a game based on Eclipsis Phase, a game set in the dark future where Human built AIs, known as TITANS, have taken control of the Earth, and Humanity exists spread across the Sol System. The Core Rule Book can be found here: http://robboyle.file...rdprinting1.pdf Freely avalible from the publisher. (No I am not an expert on the rules, it will be a learning experiance for all of us. I would suggest going to page 154 (Sample Characters) and picking one of them if you don't have time to study the rules in detail.) The game would start with the team of you based out of an office on Locus (The largest settlement, orbiting Jupiter), essentially as a band of mercenaries. You know each other. You have been contacted by a Professor Ming, who has requested a meeting to discuss a job offer. The second option: Pathfinder. Set some 10 years after the events of Windward, you are the elected/enforced/entrenched leaders of the Colonies of the Windward Isles. The war between Chelliax and Absalom has raged continually, dragging the world into a war for supremacy. The new God, Garmund...at first he intervened to protect Absalom, but then he withdrew his support and retreated, first to the Monolith, and then to the depths of the Jungles. Ostensibly to gather his strength, but in reality nobody rightly knows. However these issues are very much in the background, for you the major concerns vary between war with the Kobolds, the increasingly oppressive and unrewarding rule from the Monolith, and its settlement, and with each other. The situation is not yet at boiling point, the recent (though temporary) defeat of the Drow in the tunnels has provided an unexpected lull in which it is...not safe...but opportune, to make a stand without fear of being subdujated by the greater Evil of the Drow. The first Congress has been called to discuss issues of Colonial Importance, and this is where the game starts. You are level 10 characters and have a Stipend of 6,200 GP per month, each (Which will vary depending on the strategic situation). You will also recieve a fund of troops, each, which you can 'spend' on the various hotspots that develop. Your job is not, however, to sit around the table talking while growing rich. Your people expect you to fight for them, what you should 'do' is up to you. Recovering sacred Artifacts, attending diplomatic missions in Absalom/Chelliax/Further afield, fighting on the frontlines, or even carrying out precision strikes are all part of your remit. Dying/Regenning permenantly reduces your Stipend and fund of Troops, unless the group undertakes a particularly challanging mission to build that colonies' faith in their new leader.

I am drawn to a 1880s setting. Guns are reasonably uncommon, as are Cars, but can be acquired. Also the Tavern has something against Archers, so maybe Gunmen will be more tolerable =P Magic would be Esper and Artifact based. The Esper Magic itself is reasonably weak...Flame Magicians = Able to produce a candle flame. In game terms this means level 2-2.9 costs 0.2 per 0.1, level 3-3.9 costs 0.3 per 0.1, and so on. Each player gets a level 1 power at the start of the game (For instance Candle Flame, Ice Nail, Rock Knuckles) and most NPCs will have some limited form of Magic. Only Magic would be handled through the Nimbus system (Minus Parity Levels), everything else goes through the traditional Dungeoneering system.* Artifacts can be acquired and produce singular effects, depending on the magic type being used. The Artifacts tend to be the size of buttons and tend to be mounted on weapons, clothes or, for the magically enthused, wands/staves. A typical artifact might be 'Firey Sphere'. For Fire/Pyro mages this would produce a flaming sphere at double (Up to a certain point, 7, for instance, decided when the artifact is created) their level. For Water/Hydro mages it would produce a steam cloud at their level. For Electro mages it would produce a flaming sphere that erupted lightning bolts, at their level -1 (Since Fire and Electricity don't exactly work together =P). The setting, beyond the general era of 1880-1889 is undecided. We could do Victorian London, or City-X, or the area around Caster in that era. We could use something like the Meritocracy that was discussed last night, with Magic being the Governing power, or the Quisitor of Caster, or Impertor of Priest Town, or Stovepipe hat wearing politicans. We could do Air/steamships, or the exploration of the African Interior. I am open to most things...as long as they explained in a manner I can understand. *Leveling up for most skills will be through the traditional Dungeoneering system of 'You do a task and you get better at doing that task.' For Magic you would set yourself a task, for instance "Travel to the Tailors and buy a pair of Goggles", I assign a difficulty rating, and if you complete the task then you gain points that you can spend to increase your magic skill. You can then spend skill to gain powers. These Powers may affect artifacts, reduce modifers or add new effects to your spells. In all skills each full number(interger) value increases your rolls by 1. Levels are capped at 20. Alternatively you can spend the points gathered to tailor a quest/task. For instance you could spend 4 points to buy a chance encounter with a bard, who tells you of a secret tomb containing the Artifact of "Force Shield". Essentially you give me an outline of a quest and I fill in the details and run it. Finally, for an increasing cost (1.0 for the first, 2.0 for the second, and so on) you can buy 'feats' which have a very wide meaning and needs to be nailed down. The game will be using Aspects and Fate Points. Please consult: http://www.faterpg.com/dl/sotc-srd.html for additional ideas, the system explained below is just my interpretation, I am willing to modify that if the changes make sense. In summery: An Aspect is a character Trait, for instance "Tyrant" "Coward" "Muscle-Bound" "Genius", etc. They are the traits that make up your character. Using an aspect adds 5 to a single roll, or allows a re-roll on things covered by that trait (since I am doing the rolling please tell me when you are using a +5 BEFORE I roll.). For instance "Tyrants" would be better at intimidating people or commanding troops, or counting gold. "Cowards" would be better at running away/dodging attacks, etc. Either of these uses 1 Fate Point. Aspects which have negative connotations, for instancy Tyrants being unable to show mercy, or Cowards who can't fight particularly well, gain 1 Fate Point when their aspect gets in the way. They actually have to get in the way to give you Fate Points, you can't simply start a fight with a mouse then not show mercy/be afraid of it. If I intervene on behalf of an Aspect, aka you are about to let another party member walk free, but you are a tyrant, I will take over your character, but give you a fate point. If you then attempt to free them straight away you will be warned, if you persist lose all of your fate points. Freeing them later, when your character has had time to reflect, is fine. Aspects are decided at the beginning of the game, 2 by you, and then 2 by another person(randomly selected) and 1 by me. Along with the 'Blurb' of your life, as explained below. At the end of a 'bought' quest you can change 1 Aspect(Character Growth), or by spending 5 of your Fate Points a (randomly selected) person can replace one of your Aspects(Epiphany). Plot Aspects, for instance 'Adept of the House of Tarsus' can be changed to reflect story development. Feel free to add these sorts of aspects in character creation. Naturally extreme derpery when selecting other people's traits will result in someone else picking them...For instance selecting, for Mather "Afraid of Science" or "Mortal Phobia of Ice" for Retech. The Aspects you select for other people should develop the character based on what already exists. The Blurb of your life should be just that. You write one to three lines on where you grew up, what you did as a child, etc (It is assumed everyone will be approximate 22-27). The person who choses your other aspects then writes what you did in the last 10 years or so. I then write what you did in the last two months or so, leading up to the present moment. I will take any comments you want into consideration. ...Simply I will add an event that causes everyone to meet up for one reason or another, as well as extricate people from any long term jobs they may have had. Skills: You are level 1.0 in your magic/-mancy skill. This is set in stone and cannot be changed during creation. If you wish to not have magic then simply don't add this skill, you can choose a magic later, if you change your mind, but will start at 0. You can select: 1 skill you are at 10.0 in. (46.9) 2 skills you are at 5.0 in. (22.8) 3 skills you are at 3.0 in. (12.6) 4 skills you are at 2.0 in. (8.4) 5 Skills you are at 1.0 in. (5.0) (warning, convoluted/confusing rule system follows, using this is NOT advised.) If you want to customise this list then 0.0-1.9 costs 0.1 per 0.1. 2.0-2.9 costs 0.2 per 0.1, and so on. The bracketed values are the totals for each catagory. This is only used in character creation. This should sum to 95.7. The highest level you can reach is 14.1 at 94.7. All figures: [hide] 0.1 = 0.1 0.2 = 0.2 0.3 = 0.3 0.4 = 0.4 0.5 = 0.5 0.6 = 0.6 0.7 = 0.7 0.8 = 0.8 0.9 = 0.9 1 = 1 1.1 = 1.1 1.2 = 1.2 1.3 = 1.3 1.4 = 1.4 1.5 = 1.5 1.6 = 1.6 1.7 = 1.7 1.8 = 1.8 1.9 = 1.9 2 = 2.1 2.1 = 2.3 2.2 = 2.5 2.3 = 2.7 2.4 = 2.9 2.5 = 3.1 2.6 = 3.3 2.7 = 3.5 2.8 = 3.7 2.9 = 3.9 3 = 4.2 3.1 = 4.5 3.2 = 4.8 3.3 = 5.1 3.4 = 5.4 3.5 = 5.7 3.6 = 6 3.7 = 6.3 3.8 = 6.6 3.9 = 6.9 4 = 7.3 4.1 = 7.7 4.2 = 8.1 4.3 = 8.5 4.4 = 8.9 4.5 = 9.3 4.6 = 9.7 4.7 = 10.1 4.8 = 10.5 4.9 = 10.9 5 = 11.4 5.1 = 11.9 5.2 = 12.4 5.3 = 12.9 5.4 = 13.4 5.5 = 13.9 5.6 = 14.4 5.7 = 14.9 5.8 = 15.4 5.9 = 15.9 6 = 16.5 6.1 = 17.1 6.2 = 17.7 6.3 = 18.3 6.4 = 18.9 6.5 = 19.5 6.6 = 20.1 6.7 = 20.7 6.8 = 21.3 6.9 = 21.9 7 = 22.6 7.1 = 23.3 7.2 = 24 7.3 = 24.7 7.4 = 25.4 7.5 = 26.1 7.6 = 26.8 7.7 = 27.5 7.8 = 28.2 7.9 = 28.9 8 = 29.7 8.1 = 30.5 8.2 = 31.3 8.3 = 32.1 8.4 = 32.9 8.5 = 33.7 8.6 = 34.5 8.7 = 35.3 8.8 = 36.1 8.9 = 36.9 9 = 37.8 9.1 = 38.7 9.2 = 39.6 9.3 = 40.5 9.4 = 41.4 9.5 = 42.3 9.6 = 43.2 9.7 = 44.1 9.8 = 45 9.9 = 45.9 10 = 46.9 10.1 = 47.9 10.2 = 48.9 10.3 = 49.9 10.4 = 50.9 10.5 = 51.9 10.6 = 52.9 10.7 = 53.9 10.8 = 54.9 10.9 = 55.9 11 = 57 11.1 = 58.1 11.2 = 59.2 11.3 = 60.3 11.4 = 61.4 11.5 = 62.5 11.6 = 63.6 11.7 = 64.7 11.8 = 65.8 11.9 = 66.9 12 = 68.1 12.1 = 69.3 12.2 = 70.5 12.3 = 71.7 12.4 = 72.9 12.5 = 74.1 12.6 = 75.3 12.7 = 76.5 12.8 = 77.7 12.9 = 78.9 13 = 80.2 13.1 = 81.5 13.2 = 82.8 13.3 = 84.1 13.4 = 85.4 13.5 = 86.7 13.6 = 88 13.7 = 89.3 13.8 = 90.6 13.9 = 91.9 14 = 93.3 14.1 = 94.7 14.2 = 96.1 14.3 = 97.5 14.4 = 98.9 14.5 = 100.3 14.6 = 101.7 14.7 = 103.1 14.8 = 104.5 14.9 = 105.9 15 = 107.4 15.1 = 108.9 15.2 = 110.4 15.3 = 111.9 15.4 = 113.4 15.5 = 114.9 15.6 = 116.4 15.7 = 117.9 15.8 = 119.4 15.9 = 120.9 16 = 122.5 16.1 = 124.1 16.2 = 125.7 16.3 = 127.3 16.4 = 128.9 16.5 = 130.5 16.6 = 132.1 16.7 = 133.7 16.8 = 135.3 16.9 = 136.9 17 = 138.6 17.1 = 140.3 17.2 = 142 17.3 = 143.7 17.4 = 145.4 17.5 = 147.1 17.6 = 148.8 17.7 = 150.5 17.8 = 152.2 17.9 = 153.9 18 = 155.7 18.1 = 157.5 18.2 = 159.3 18.3 = 161.1 18.4 = 162.9 18.5 = 164.7 18.6 = 166.5 18.7 = 168.3 18.8 = 170.1 18.9 = 171.9 19 = 173.8 19.1 = 175.7 19.2 = 177.6 19.3 = 179.5 19.4 = 181.4 19.5 = 183.3 19.6 = 185.2 19.7 = 187.1 19.8 = 189 19.9 = 190.9 20 = 192.9 [/hide] Items: I would give alot of leeway with Items, provided your backstory allows you to have them. Obviously be reasonable...If you were the assistant to Hiram Maxim, who died under mysterious circumstances, and left you his Maxim Gun then there will be fallout from that. Likewise if you are an Artifact Thief, hence you have 20 Artifacts, there will be a lot of fallout out from that. However all stories will have 'fallout', so don't ask 'How many artifacts can I have without getting fallout?' And don't be afraid of fallout. If you are a nobody, who never did anything with their life, and is basically boring as hell, then your adventures will be boring =P Death usually resolves as a 20 minute timeout. If you break a law that would see you arrested for more than a month, then you are skulled. If you die while skulled you move 1 step along the permadeath route. Going 30 Minute time out, -10.0 Points(not skills) then Permadeath. So 3 strikes and your out.
