Delayed Update (13th Sept.)
Sorry for the lack of updates. Here's some info:
I accidentally broke part of the application a few days ago, and I have just started full-time employment so haven't had the time or the motivation to fix it (programming at work then coming home to code more? No thanks.) However I will be completely free this weekend and so I will fix it then, and have it running it again for the full 14 days (which by the end will bring me to the end of September and thus the end of the "4 spins per day" offer). It will require another set of accounts since the current batch will be F2P by the time the weekend arrives. But I will be picking up this thread where it left off on Sunday.
I will also be improving the system by making two additions:
1. The "Your game session has ended" seems to be badly implemented in RSBot, so I'll be writing my own and making it flawless.
2. I'll be writing a seperate piece of software which will check if RSBot is down due to a RS update, keep checking until it's back up, then completely restart RSBot and run the script again. All automatically.
This should (hopefully, if written correctly) allow the system to run indefinitely.
Note that this is all assuming the whole Botany Bay crap doesn't get implemented anytime soon. If it does (and if it puts a stop to bots), then I'll probably just give away the 4371 accounts and the 1,057,056,500 GP currently distributed among them.

Intro
I'll be posting screenshots and data every day showing how much/what I earn. Keep in mind that everything won on the SOF will be converted to coins using the "Convert to coins" feature they have now (which makes sense, you get 4.5m for fish mask if you convert to coins, and it's only worth around 3.7m on the GE). You must be wondering, "how the hell are you doing this!?! 10k+ spins a day?" Well, I'll answer that for you. The idea is straightforward, but it's relatively difficult for most people to accomplish:
- To create all the accounts, you'll need proxies. I coded a tool which crawls across the web and parses web pages to collect proxies, then "pings" them to test they're working. Once you have a decent collection of proxies, you can create thousands of accounts in under an hour (I created another tool for registering and validating the accounts using the proxies).
- When you validate the account, you get 14 days free membership. And with membership comes more SOF spins. Throughout this month you get 4 spins per account rather than the usual 2.
- To get the accounts to use the SOF, you'll need a script to do it for you (or do it manually if you're mentally challenged). I also made the script myself (no it's not on the SDN ). When my previous tool registered the accounts, it stored them in a database. The script will connect to the database, and fetch the account details to login and spin the SOF. Once it has done that, the script updates the database records stating that the account has been used it's spins for today, plus it also records the coins/items won and stores that in the database too. The script will continue to do this for all accounts in the database until there are no more with spins left.
Doing it this way (with the database) means that I can see exactly how much I've earned instantly with a single query; there's no need to login to each account.
The Transfer Problem
As you may be aware, Jagex has introduced a 25K trade limit on new F2P accounts and trial member accounts. This clearly poses a problem on how to transfer all this GP from thousands of accounts. Doing transfer tricks (e.g. dying in the wilderness, using the red portal) manually simply isn't feasible. So instead I'll do what any powerbotter would do: bot it.
The Solution
Two more scripts were developed to automate the transfer process:
1. The "Red Portal Victim" script - This script logs into an account, walks to (and enters) the red portal, moves the coins to inventory, and waits to be killed by the "killer". It then logs out and moves onto next account.
2. The "Red Portal Killer" script - This script will have an account simply idle in the red portal arena and wait for the "victim" to arrive, then kill the account and pick up the GP.
Both these scripts communicate with each other to ensure the safety of the transfers. For example, the killer will know the name of the victim account, so if any players not matching those names are in the area, the killer will switch to a different world. The victim will always follow the killer to the new, safe world.
Stats / Goals (last updated 7th Sept aka Day 6)
Here is the estimated amount of things I expect/hope to get by the end of the 14 days:
Coins: 832,762,040 GP (current)
Fish masks: 49 (current) / 100 (est. after 14 days)
Huge XP lamps: 49 (current) / 120 (est.)
500k coin stacks: 184 (current) / 500 (est.)
200m coin stacks: 0 / 1
Progress and Screenshots
The SOF script will take a screenshot whenever it lands on a rare/super-rare, so it's easy to show what has been won.
Day 1 (2nd Sept)
All the rare/super-rare screenshots (186 of them):
A few bigger screenshots (too many to upload all):
