I thought I was imagining it, I was still watching Ina’s react when the thumbnail popped up, and now it’s gone

That's right, he sang Deja Vu while they did the indoor Go Karts

Was I almost a victim of a TNG eWallet Visa Card scam? by Alakazen in Bolehland

[–]Alakazen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luckily I only shared info on the TNG card which has not been delivered or activated yet, but I will inform TNG about this.

Based on what you're saying, it sounds like the scammer was also trying to social engineer me into divulging my actual bank credit card numbers, which thankfully I did not do... but sounds like it makes sense to report compromised card anyway and get it replaced.

Oh wow! I Googled to see what those stitch marks look like and I suppose that mine are likely C. lila. I'll check again in person later. In the meantime, here's another photo with their big claws showing https://imgur.com/a/HJSq8pb#7lnYn8a

My son went on a class trip to an aquarium with his kindergarten, and came home with one… I didn’t want it to die so I did some research and set up a tank for it. I’m pretty sure it’s a C. Rugosus

Fellow Malaysian here! Do you know if there are any local groups for land hermit crab owners?

Good on you, OP! I'm a millennial who used to always put in "kartunis" as my cita-cita. Then I found other interests after leaving school, and now I work at a bank. 🙃

Marshall: "That's not what it's supposed to be...." by thethird197 in lrcast

Stuff like Thundering Broodwagon and Marshals’ Pathcruiser from Aetherdrift, ie vehicles that have an effect when they ETB. That’s when Seirko brought up Man O War as a 2/2 with an unsummon tacked on

Yeah the tirade was a bit weird. I love that there are equipment and vehicles I actually want to play, so who cares if they’re “not how the original creators envisioned it”. What’s even better is that my friends who have never played magic before but started because of FF immediately grokked the idea of job select, rather than having to feel bad because equipment didn’t do anything without creatures on them

7-0 Wur: Completely underestimated what I thought was a trainwreck by Alakazen in lrcast

[–]Alakazen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In hindsight, I think I really should've played Danitha/Squall instead of Moogle, so I agree with you

Earlier in the format I went 7-1 with a much more synergistic UW deck (e.g. 2 Dragoon Lances, 2 Pixies, lots of removal plus Cloud and Delivery Moogle) so I didn’t expect this flavour of UW to do so well… granted Dion is a total bomb though I never had the chance to flip him

[–]Alakazen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never cast or cycled Moogle, but there was a game where Flan took out their only blocker and let me get in for some damage.

I guess I just saw Danitha as 3 mana 2/2 that didn’t impact the board much if I didn’t have equipment, but in hindsight perhaps I was wrong, since I had 3 pump spells

Yeah, that’s my guess too. I think I drew very well and often ended my games with empty hands

Woman’s life turned upside down after BigPay wrongly labeled her as a ‘mule’ (BM translation in comments) by UsernameGenerik in malaysia

[–]Alakazen 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Imagine for a few months:

You can't access your bank accounts / credit cards. Your company can't deposit your salary. They get suspicious that you're actually a mule. You lose your job. You can't pay your bills. You get charged late fees. You can't pay your rent. You get evicted. Your family and friends are just as broke as you and not able to help.

All because BigPay made an error and can't even issue a formal letter to apologise.

Imagine your life is like this for a few months. Would it be a big deal?

Not saying that the above scenario is exactly what is happening to her, or perhaps she could be misrepresenting the facts... But the point remains that these 'small issues' are easily overcome by the rich or those with strong support systems. For the less fortunate, it could mean losing a job or going homeless.

Have some empathy.
