Stealing Creation is a member's dangerous (although you are not allowed to take any of your own items inside) minigame located in the Gamers' Grotto. To play the game, the player must enter one of the two waiting areas. Once inside, a window pops up at the top right corner of the screen that depicts the Total Combat Levels and Total Skill Levels of both the player's team and the opposing team. These change as players enter and exit the waiting rooms. The game automatically detects if one team is stronger than the other and attempt to balance the teams by not letting people join the stronger team. As frustrating as this may seem, it does actually help to keep the game balanced. The Total Combat Levels are determined by combining the levels of a player's Attack, Strength, Defence, Constitution, Ranged, Magic, Prayer, and Summoning levels. The Total Skill Levels are determined by combining the levels of a player's Woodcutting, Mining, Fishing, Hunter, Cooking, Herblore, Crafting, Smithing, Fletching, Runecrafting, and Construction levels. Even though Agility is in Stealing Creation, it doesn't determine the Total Skill Levels as it only has one purpose to the game and that is to jump over walls at level 60 Agility. The window also shows the amount of time until the next game starts, unless there are fewer than five people in each team, in which case it shows how many more people are needed to start the game. Once at the Gamers' grotto, located north of Falador, players are put into fair teams based on combat levels and total levels. Remember: you are not allowed to take any items with you into the game. Once the teams have been sorted and everyone is ready, there is a short timer, and then everyone enters the game. Each team has its own base in which it is safe from opposing attackers. The idea of the game is to collect as many resources as you can and gain more points than the other team. A common way to gain points is to collect a resource and then make it into runes or arrows. This is popular as each arrow/rune stacks, which means you don't have to make trips to your base as often. Combat and thieving are allowed.
