I was thinking…Maybe it is wise to stash your armies with 1 million gp each. By clever trading, in theory it is possible to maintain an mining army, and a smithing army, or a cooking and a fishing army.
Suppose I sell 1k coal and 500 iron ores from the miner to the smither. I buy back 300 steel bars once they done. I sell it at grand exchange and voila. everybody happy!
I think I am onto something here :)

But, hey, you never know what can happen! :)

Yeah, ofcourse it's a great idea, but there's maybe 1 small problem, what will you do with the money your miners/smithers make…

Its a good idea, but after a while, your smithers will have a lot of money and have no where to stash it because of the unbalanced trade system… IMO

What if : You sell you 1000 coal off your miners to the general store (not the grand excchange) and then quickly log on your main and buy them, I know you'd pay and also loose some ores in the process but you might sill make a profit if you sell the ores off of your main at the grand exchange…
Maybe we just need to pick the right store, maybe egdeville and night? and be fast in selling. If no other players buy off the ores, i think you would only loose about 50-60 ores + your miner makes money and your main makes a little profit.

I highly doubt that we can all afford to put 1M gp on each of our 20 or so autoers…

No, actually its pretty brilliant. Just make that final person your main. If they think they've beaten RWT then they'll think theres no way to get auto money to your main, but through this clever set-up all your main has to do is smith and make a profit. You could easily auto a decent startup amount of money into your autoers with feathers from chicken killing for higher combat and the ores/bars you have to mine to get to 40 mining for coal or higher for fancy stuff. As long as grand-exchange prices allow you to make a profit from the final sale its feasable.
It still needs a little work, but it could happen.
SRL would really have to be even more human-like though since even with this way, you'll be autoing on your mains, or without accounts that have huge amounts of cash.
And this way, huge armies don't have to die! It just takes way longer to build up your army, and at some point you would reach a maximum number of people since the final person can only mine/smith so much.

That general store idea is plausible, Rimmington general store usually doesn't any legit people there if I remember, just iBot people selling willows.

I don't make profit, not yet ;). I will in the future, but i can't trade it.. So i will probably never make profit ;).

I was wondering if you could transfer money this:
1. Get some armor on your autoer, so it looks legit, or "noob"
2. Withdraw some food, some items and some money from bank. Don't take too much, and withdraw amounts like 144645gp instead of 150000.
3. Go to some isolated place with NPCs (Wilderness for example)
4. Let the autoer die and pick up the loot with your main/other autoer
Would this work, what do you think?

nope the new update also makes it so that if something is dropped (by dying or manually dropped) and its worth more than 3k other players cant see it

1. cant take non combat items into wildy
2. drops that are over 3k cannot be seen by other players upon death

that could work, just has to be within the 3k limit on each side…
like have your friend stake 100k for you and have your autoer stake up his items like 1k coal…boom kill the autoer and you win ;)
i have never done dual arena tho so someone needs to confirm if this is possible
