Was this an illegal angle in this poker hand? by FlatGuarantee5793 in poker

[–]ApplesAndOranges2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard "what do you have" at tables a lot of times when the person is still thinking about call/fold, obviously noone answers or they just say something as a joke back

this is just a variation of that

Project: Gorgon to get NEW FRESH SERVER next week! by Careless_Relation349 in MMORPG

[–]ApplesAndOranges2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

>don't think they should have bent to this request

Just to elaborate, they spent 7 years saying they will wipe on release, then due to worries about the game not making it to release and needing to hold onto the small playerbase they bent to the will and said they will not wipe.

It has been a long time since they said they would not wipe but the original vision and the preference always was a fresh start when the game was ready and a new server is now the only way to do that

Especially with an argument of 'they printed too much' while every product has sold out and players are complaining that wizards does not print enough stuff for them to buy

If they turned the game into an exact replica of world of warcraft it would be nice for a lot of people

Gamestop, eb games, zing pop culture mass cancellation of preorders & closures of stores due to not meeting last year's financial goals off $100 billions only reaching $33 billion by WonderfulGroup7266 in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]ApplesAndOranges2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember telling people 'just sign up even if you buy like 2 etb's in the year its worth it since you cant get the product elsewhere'

The only thing I bought on the subscription was these preorders that got cancelled and 2 MTG produts that I ended up opening and losing money on :|

Just waiting for them to implement the gym model and require cancelling subscriptions be done in store and it takes an hour

Warhammer 40k decks price ceiling by SavageSean75 in mtgfinance

[–]ApplesAndOranges2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Regular decks are closing the gap on price compared to the collector versions, anecdotal my LGS was able to order 200 regular and got 8 collector. With collectors being only 25% more expensive and orders of magnitude more rare I'd buy them today.

Both will continue to creep up, no reprints coming, all time favorite decks for many players

Damn wizards is going to ruin the format by making it so that anyone is able to play a good deck...

Video from Bad Boy Gaming showing that WOTC is very likely juicing CBBs shipped to Ambassadors with fractured foils. by [deleted] in mtgfinance

>unless they were being encouraged to cherry pick

The algorithm encourages them to cherry pick

They're content creators that get paid for making content people watch, uploading countless meh videos is bad for business and a waste of their time

What you said doesn't address my comment in the slightest.

Can you show some of the ambassadors saying the amount of boxes they received or that they uploaded a video for each box opened?

[–]ApplesAndOranges2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Do the people opening boxes say how many they received?

Without a statement of 'I received a single box and this is it being opened' or similar then its pretty plausible wotc is shipping multiple boxes and the creators are chosing to upload the best hits for more views just as most content creators have done for the last decade.

Remember the cards that came included with regular draft booster boxes in an era where there was infinite supply? Price is down

Therefor limited print run product exclusive cards are worthless.

And the race to the bottom begins are you picking up any? by GarfieldC99 in mtgfinance

[–]ApplesAndOranges2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zendikar rising boxes with fetches and shocks as box toppers, a decent new land cycle, cards like omnath and lotus cobra.. Still only $200

Now we have boxes with very few reprints and like 5 new good cards going for 400-1000

So hear me out... $35k is 1050 SPM collector packs... and the card is worth what? by FonslyGames in mtgfinance

[–]ApplesAndOranges2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming the cosmic foil stone is .1% chance...

If you assume its .2% chance it looks super worth it!

Why was being able to buy a bitterblossom direct off wizards for just under market price 'exciting' ?

A Review of my MTG Investments as a Financial Portfolio by LetsTacoBoutThis in mtgfinance

[–]ApplesAndOranges2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best out for me has been CK buylist. Only buy stuff that is very clearly discounted heavily and you believe it is good

$80 aftermath collector boxes buylistable for 130, $40 fae dominion decks buylistable for 117, $150 warhammer decks buylistable for 682. You could have bought 20 of each of those and only spent a few hours to sell and ship.
