Looks good so far...I like the ranking system. How far along are you?

Pretty close to done with the actual MM guide. But I still have to make the new site (which will be rather spartan at the start, but still) and of course, Jagex keeps changing the game which means updates to stuff I've already written and updated, etc. :)

459 methods to make money, 313 of which are over 200,000 gp/hr?

That, sir, is thorough :D

I did notice that the numerical XP value was not included. It should be easy enough to calculate, shouldn't it?

Looks great!

u gonna beta test this first?... several of us would be glad to help with a quick run-through before release... and would suggest (as I'm sure you have assumed) a signed non-disclosure agreement of course.

Are you going to require payment for access to this guide? I don't remember what stance you chose last time this question came up. (And yes, I am that lazy :lol: )

Q needs to make a living, so most likely it'll require a monthly fee of some sort. I'm sure you can shell out a few hours' worth of your wage, no?

Kickstarter looks like an interesting site, thanks! I don't need it for this but it could be of value for another project.

I don't need a beta test for this, but in the future I may solicit input from those who have high skill levels in areas I do not.

My current plan is to have two versions of the entire site: free and member's only. The free version will have most of the same content as the member's site, but members will get a number of benefits:

- No ads
- Daily updates of the content to reflect GE price changes
- New guides before they become available on the free site
- New updates before others can see them
- Possibly a private forum to share tips before the "general public" sees them (not sure about that)

My current plan is to offer three options for membership:
- Annual subscription for $2/month ($24/year)
- Monthly subscription for $4/month, automatically renewing
- Single month subscription for $8.

What stops "pseudo-freeloaders" from signing up for a month and then cancelling? I can't see the third option getting much use under this scheme...

Nothing, but that's part of why there is a free version anyway, and also why the single month is much more expensive. (Also because of the extra work involved.)

Much of the value of this tool is the regular updates.

As far as I know that can't be done from a practical standpoint.

Just Paypal, at least to start. That stuff is not my strong suit, and it will take time to investigate other options, but I'll try to be flexible if Paypal is an issue for a lot of folks.

Would PayByCash be possible? It looks simple enough. (Or pay by cash literally, without using fancy web services.)

I'd be sure to subscribe if there is a 3-6 month option. Never have I been rsing for more then 5 months without break

But I'm surprised at how low cost this is (20/yr?!)
I might just subscribe
