Advanced Mann-Conomy: How to idle with multiple accounts - Games

[QUOTE=horneju;35915117]a completeley other questions... i'd like to know how you managed to bring down your ram usage to 2k??? because my ram usage for 1 account is around 200k... would love to know your "magic trick" ... thanks[/QUOTE] I know some "tricks" to low down the usage from the hl2.exe's. The first thing it's - turn the swap file to your maximum. Pc will lag a lot, but you can login on much more accounts. The second - i use ASC Smart Ram. It reduces the ram usage from hl2.exe's. I hope it will work for you.

Smart RAM 2.0 is nice, but you will need to install [URL="http://www.iobit.com/advancedsystemcareper.html"]Advanced System Care[/URL] to use it though. Try using [URL="http://www.iobit.com/gamebooster.html"]Gamebooster[/URL] from Iobit too. It terminates anything that isn't necessary to run windows.

About to make 10 idle accounts and get them to premium by buying 2 keys. But I have a question, should I make a new email for all of the accounts or one for each? Or no new at all?

[QUOTE=BlueYoshi;35941151]But I have a question, should I make a new email for all of the accounts or one for each?[/QUOTE] Nope.

[QUOTE=Boben;35941174]Nope.[/QUOTE] I am atleast making a new email and register all of them to that email and not use my main.

Lucky week, I got 5 hats over 17 accounts.

[QUOTE=Newbienice99;35942665]Lucky week, I got 5 hats over 17 accounts.[/QUOTE] A month or two back I dropped a Pyromancer's Mask on my main. I was so pleased! Then 50 minutes later I dropped another Pyromancer's Mask. I know hats are supposed to be rare and all but I was just completely unenthused by that turn of events. (I ended up selling it off and got a replacement hat so that was worthwhile). One of my two idlers dropped a Desert Marauder the other day. That gave me the idea to get a Fruit Shoot and name tag it as Dessert Marauder. I don't play sniper enough to make it worthwhile though.

And for now i have my dream unusual. Idle ftw :D

[QUOTE=Manulthecat;35948417]Don't be greedy :D I bought my first unusual for the idle items/hats. And for now i have my dream unusual. Idle for the win :D[/QUOTE] Wow, I better get moving then. Only have 15 refined D: Luckiest drops I've had are 3 crate 30's and name tags. Ended up getting another 8 idle accounts which means I get about 8-9 refined a week. So it should be nice :D

I just made and upgraded two new accounts to premium, but TF2 isn't showing up yet in Steam Inventory and Trading. Do we need to wait like 3 days now to trade with new premium accounts?

[QUOTE=gambler;35950648]I just made and upgraded two new accounts to premium, but TF2 isn't showing up yet in Steam Inventory and Trading. Do we need to wait like 3 days now to trade with new premium accounts?[/QUOTE] I think they take a day to be able to trade. If they have no tradable items on the account then it will not show it in the backpack.

I'll wait then. The accounts already got some items, Steam Trading is working fine between other accounts, but just these two new premium accounts don't have TF2 enabled to trade yet. First time I see something like this, maybe Valve changed the policies because of people using stolen ccs or doing chargebacks after trading.

I have 54 premium accounts for now. I guess Gabe hates me.

[QUOTE=Manulthecat;35950966]Wow, some nice drops. I just craft weapons and get a shitton of ref. I have 54 premium accounts for now. I guess Gabe hates me.[/QUOTE] In fact he loves us. It's just virtual items and we're giving real money to him.

[QUOTE=gambler;35951103]In fact he loves us. It's just virtual items and we're giving real money to him.[/QUOTE] Maybe. But every premium upgrade costs me 0.40$. I have at least one ref from every acc every week. And ref if 0.5-0.6 usd. Quite profit.

[QUOTE=Manulthecat;35952097]Maybe. But every premium upgrade costs me 0.40$. I have at least one ref from every acc every week. And ref if 0.5-0.6 usd. Quite profit.[/QUOTE] But don't you need at least 5 dollars to upgrade one account, despite being able to sell the bought items later?

[QUOTE=gambler;35952506]But don't you need at least 5 dollars to upgrade one account, despite being able to sell the bought items later?[/QUOTE] I just buy the cheapest thing in the shop (sticky jumper or rocket) and here we go, premium.

But you need to add $5 minimum to steam wallet?

[QUOTE=hogofwar;35952868]But you need to add $5 minimum to steam wallet?[/QUOTE] Nope. If paying from visa - yeah. But i'm paying from my country special terminal, i can pay even 0.01$.

Any one of you guys know a good config for lowering memory usage? I have 10 accs on 1 server using 7GB of my 8GB.

[QUOTE=BlueYoshi;35953304]Any one of you guys know a good config for lowering memory usage? I have 10 accs on 1 server using 7GB of my 8GB.[/QUOTE] Create one server for all idle accounts instead of making each account create its own server to idle.

[QUOTE=gambler;35953610]Create one server for all idle accounts instead of making each account create its own server to idle.[/QUOTE] Dude, my post told that I have all of them on one server.

[QUOTE=Manulthecat;35952903]Nope. If paying from visa - yeah. But i'm paying from my country special terminal, i can pay even 0.01$.[/QUOTE] Care to explain in a bit more depth?

[QUOTE=Newbienice99;35955045]Care to explain in a bit more depth?[/QUOTE] I'm also wondering, because Steam Wallet doesn't have a "special option" for 1 cent deposits.

In Russia and some other countries, there're QIWI terminals. From there you can put any custom amount of money on your Steam account.

[QUOTE=Siberian;35955317]In Russia and some other countries, there're QIWI terminals. From there you can put any custom amount of money on your Steam account.[/QUOTE] So that explains why there are common weapons in the top sellers list.

[QUOTE=Newbienice99;35942665]Lucky week, I got 5 hats over 17 accounts.[/QUOTE] Loled, same here. 5 hats from 15 accs last night.

I want to see you beat 2 hats and 1 nametag. On a single account.
