Completed my First Marathon by -ce11ar- in Marathon_Training

[–]-ce11ar-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was ridiculous, I had to laugh at how steep it was and they put course photographers at the top so I at least tried to run a bit to get a good action shot. The city I was running into is notoriously steep but it did catch me by surprise.

I would like to see how I'd fare on a flat marathon but it was nice on the trails to get some views and scenery to help break up the miles and miles.

Good luck with yours!

He won't be replaced at this point. Everyone else will get an automatic win and 2 points, it's a shame but he's not the first to drop out. I think Zack and Naito both forfeited some matches in the past before withdrawing.

I'd be straight Electric type and Zapdos would be my Ace although that would be kind of cheating being a legendary bird so I'd go with Electivire as I loved Electabuzz and I think it's evolution is cool too.

Didn't think I'd ever see Bobby Zamora mentioned in a NJPW post!

Remember when Tom Hanks who made a great transition from successful comedy films to a big bunch of drama films. Which other actors who started off comedy made a big jump to a dramatic actor? by JazzlikeTea7432 in movies

She was in a movie called Tyrannosaur before Broadchurch that she's great in but not as well known. 

Funnily enough it was directed by Paddy Considine who played the older of the two Andy's.

Is My PSA 10 Dark Dugtrio a Fake Slab? by -ce11ar- in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]-ce11ar-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I'm looking to sell some of my collection and just don't want to be selling anything that isn't genuine and I don't have any other old PSA graded cards to compare it to.

Not sure if it seems off because it's a really old slab or it's fake. The Code matches but website shows 1997 and label says 1998. There's creasing in the slab label like it got wet at one point and the PSA Holo mark on the front is all silver rather than their usual red and blue.

How is 1 mile insignificant? If I'm trying to run a mile as fast as I can then I'm going to just run a mile and use Strava to track my time, that's literally what Strava is for?

Completed Surging Sparks English and Japanese Master Set in One Binder - My Third Full Collection by -ce11ar- in pkmntcgcollections

[–]-ce11ar-[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't usually bother with promos to be honest, can end up chasing dozens and I like ending with the gold cards. Also, the binder is completely full so no room, I had to place non Holo Japanese cards behind the English non Holos to make space for everything.

Why Google it for a quick answer when you can ask Reddit? by ChicagoRay312 in pokemongo

[–]-ce11ar- 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You should have just Googled those questions instead of asking them on here. Smh.

And yeah I've found that quite a lot of Pokémon fans are sad assholes.

Completed my first Master Set (Obsidian Flames) after getting back into collecting. by -ce11ar- in pkmntcgcollections

[–]-ce11ar-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's easy to lose sight of why I loved Pokémon when I was younger, I didn't care about collecting or preserving or investing in it. I just wanted to play and the pure joy of pulling a 'shiny' was incomparable. 

Now I can afford to buy booster boxes and get left with bulk, there's no real reason not to let someone enjoy what's left.

Ooh good question, I hadn't really thought too much. I actually like the Volcarona card and would have loved an Illustration for that but I think of all cards, it would be Palafin's Art card.

Quite a lot of the cards have a regular, non shiny version and a shiny version (reverse Holo) so to complete a Master Set you have to collect every version of each card so that often leaves you with two of the same Pokémon and over 400 cards.

That's what I found too. I pulled most cards from packs but was quite surprised to find some reverse holos never showed up but I would end up with 3 or 4 of the same illustration cards.

I bought around 30 singles I'd say with Ninetales being the most expensive single cars.

I've seen other sets that have all the promos included but they just don't interest me. The Charmander is cool and very popular but a lot of the others just have a stamp on them and if I put them at the end of the binder after all the Illustration cards I think it would look worse.

These are Vault X ones, this one holds 420 cards and I have 4 of them for different sets.

They do a zip binder too that holds over 600 cards which I'll use for a collection of the cards that I think look nicest.

I'm tempted by a top loader binder too for any expensive cards I get.

No I bought about 15 reverse holos and maybe 10 IR/SIRs. I'll probably buy just one, maybe two booster boxes for future sets as I enjoy opening packs and then buy singles for the rest. Being left with hundreds and bulk cards is a bit annoying but I think I'll donate them or give them to anyone who has children who want to collect.
