Hmm you claimed the same thing on the other thieving bot, that you 'died' and lost HCIM status twice? Your story is super believable my friend keep preaching it!
As for food and 27 vs 26, glad it works better with 26 food in inventory, what's your setup like so I can add an update and make it work with 27 ^^ Did you have coins + 27 food or dodgy necklace or anything else? What was in the 1 slot?
EDIT:
If the HCIM troll was serious, make sure you have food in inventory so the bot can eat the food an not die. This bot will not continue if you are low on health and haven't selecting banking to get more food.
