How do you use your Notes tab?

[Dr Brad]

I've had troubles in the past managing my RS time when it comes to recurring resources/challenges. Hence, I set up my Notes tab to help me keep track of when to revisit these items:

"0 GMT" means it resets according to Jagex time. Typically on or after 7pm Eastern time for me.

"24 hr" means it resets 24 hours after I did the item last.

I typically link getting daily sand (80) from Bert with buying seaweed in Catherby (80). This also involves a quick stop to get 150 flax.

I also link harvesting/planting calquat trees with picking up free pineapples (40) in Brimhaven from pirate (with Karamja 3 gloves)

Ofc, I keep track of Tears and the Skeletal Horror via the quest list.

Since the notes tab enhancement, I've only used it for one thing. When I was no-lifing Soul Wars, I was hopping around SW CCs to get winning team calls. Depending on which SW world I was on, and which CC was more accurate at the time (it would vary WILDLY), I would need to know what CCs I used successfully so that I could go back to them. Almost all of the CCs in my screen shot are now inactive, as it's been a while since I no-lifed SW.

Note: #S_W_Allies was a very well run IRC channel for team/world calling until internal politics destroyed it. Typical kids stuff. lol

I use it to help me remember the tough things like:
"Socks first then shoes"
and
"don't stick pebbles in your nose"

For real though, pretty much empty except for a chat or two for soul wars that I don't play.

Mine just says "deep pain" in case I forget who I am.

[PhelimReagh]

I don't use it.

[Dave]

Mine contains a few teamspeak/ventrillo/mumble server ip's that I use frequently.

[Bass]

I don't use it, but I think I'd list Farming stuff if I did.

[Tamal]

If I stumble across a penguin before I actually do pengs for the week, I list where I saw it and what it looked like.

I also keep track of far off goals that I may forget about (get master white knight rank, for example.)

I had not hardly used the Notes tab at all, but I now use it in the same way that you do, Brad. I had always kept track of times in a notepad application, but this is more convenient. Thanks.

[TrixStar]

I never have used it

[Dima]

None at all to be honest. I've far superior and advanced tools (like notepad) than the one ingame.

[dufyman]

I don't use it.

[Huzzah]

I only used it once awhile ago to remind myself of a few irl things. Not even for in game use, seems rather silly to me.

[Darth Kaz2]

It is always interesting to see how different people plat!

Personally, I us the notes to track what day I did Miscellania, and to note prices I paid for items I am merching. For example, right now I only have two noted on the list...
Misc 1/20
BGS 27.8m

I am not really merching the BGS, but I have flipped a few in the past, and so I am just remembering what I bought it for in case I decide to sell it.

I used it to take notes of events that I deemed "important" before the Adv. Log came out, and the habit continues lol
EX) Date that I decided I wanted to get 99 anything, date that I completed WGS, so on (:

Also, I have a couple notes about what cc's to go to for minigames
EX) xxdeathx, ecoelf, w2lostsouls, 1 elite sc
