Contents

Requirements

  • The rules: no teleports, no baskets, no satchels, only inventory space, and no alts to help or hold the bananas, and no stamina potion sharing; he was allowed to wear things like Graceful, Explorer's ring 4 and Max cape boosts.1

Methods

  • Gnomonkey picked 27 bananas per inventory and ran to Port Khazard to deposit, which he found was the fastest route tick-wise to a bank, even faster than deposit boxes.1
  • Gnomonkey hopped worlds when the close banana trees were gone, noting it took eleven ticks to the bank.2

Stats and numbers

  • Each banana trip, picking an inventory and banking, took about 1 minute 20 seconds.3
  • Banana trees on Karamja have roughly a four minute respawn, which Gnomonkey counted during the run.3

Records

  • Gnomonkey picked 378 bananas, worth $378, in the 20 minutes; Maverick thought he would only get around 250.4

Events

  • Gnomonkey, as the Banana Man, was challenged by a viewer called Maverick to pick as many Karamja bananas as possible in 20 minutes, with every banana worth $1.1
  • Early in the run, the close Karamja bananas were already gone because other players or chatters had picked them, which Gnomonkey called being griefed; he held the Charter ship option as far away as possible and had 65 bananas in the bank.5
  • On his world, a random ironman player was also picking bananas on Karamja, the only other person all day to pick a single banana there, and Gnomonkey says he lost about 20 bucks to that player and another.6
  • Per the description, the interference came from the challenger Maverick himself, to save his own wallet, and Twitch chatters Hoshi and Condor7000.6
  • Near the end Gnomonkey says they had exhausted Karamja of its bananas on his world, and he hoped to pick up one more inventory before time ran out.7
