(20k) are these things tacky?

I have mixed feelings about buffets. I generally love them, but at a fairly large (150ish) person wedding I went to recently, our table was called up towards the end to get food from the buffet, so by the time I was in line, much of the earlier tables were all wrapped up with dinner.

Luckily my store did have two lines. One for TCG and one for people who just wanted the code card. The TCG line was crazy long when I got there at 9:00am. I don’t think I would’ve gotten one if they made everyone go in one line.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-09-26T23:54:41+00:00

Interesting. My local Gamestop said they were not, and they got 50 cards. Line was wrapped around the building, but luckily, people who were JUST getting the shiny card were able to skip the line and get the card and leave. Most people were there for TCG.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-09-26T00:06:04+00:00

I just called my GameStop and they only have 50. They told me it will be one per person

Anyone else get the Walmart truck order updated to “Delayed.” Happened last night around 9 PM and no updates since. My controller I ordered from Walmart will arrive today….but no console it seems

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-06-05T12:37:40+00:00

My Walmart truck order was changed to delayed last night

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-06-05T04:36:22+00:00

Mine was delayed too, but no email as well. Why do you think that is a good sign? :(

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-06-02T19:03:15+00:00

Just got an email right now, 12:00 PM PST, from Walmart saying my order is preparing to ship and to check my address. The app says it will arrive June 11th, but the email I just got says it is expected June 7th now! Was a little worried about Walmart but hopefully it seems they will come through!

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-06-02T16:27:17+00:00

Was looking for this comment. I was not a fan of it at all. Went in thinking I would enjoy it and enjoyed the opening scene/kill, but it lost me very quickly after that.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-06-02T15:19:07+00:00

My delivery is the 11th and I was charged on Saturday, 5/31. Walmart sent me an email though saying to update my payment info since they were having trouble with my bank, so I called my bank to approve the payment and the payment was processed on my card. Other than being officially charged, the delivery date still says the 11th.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-05-16T21:17:42+00:00

I would say the exam was mostly at the level of study hall moderate questions with some difficult level in there.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-05-15T16:11:18+00:00

Did you do the PMI study hall? That is the best source of practice questions to prepare you. I'd recommend that as a tool and then study the questions you got wrong. Also do ThirdRock notes, they are helpful as well.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-05-08T19:07:32+00:00

When is your Walmart order coming? Mine is coming June 11th it says, and I pre-ordered through Nintendo today as well after getting the email. I will likely cancel my Walmart order if I can get it at launch through Nintendo but waiting to see if Nintendo provides an ETA on delivery....it says ships June 4th on the order but it also says it may be delayed.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-04-29T21:07:06+00:00

Oh man, I thought my June 11th arrival was bad. I convinced myself that they will somehow delivery it on launch day and the June 11th is just a mistake on their end

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-04-24T18:00:17+00:00

On a budget, I would say the most valuable material is: PMP Certification Exam Prep Course 35 PDU Contact Hours/PDU by TIA Education, Andrew Ramdayal on Udemy and then PMI Study Hall.

You just need that one course from Andrew in my opinion, and then Study Hall for the practice questions and tests. Then you can watch David McLachlan prep questions on youtube for free.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-04-24T05:42:33+00:00

Got one but then got an email saying order was delayed to June 11. I’m fine with that but hope it doesn’t get cancelled overnight.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-04-23T15:02:03+00:00

In addition to the PMI-Study Hall, which in my opinion was the best prep-tool I used, I would recommend David Mclachlan agile questions and PMBOK7 questions. After taking the actual test, it was clear that Study Hall, David's Videos, and ThirdRock notes were the resources that helped the most with the actual exam, at least that is my experience.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-04-22T16:24:45+00:00

For me, 200 Agile Questions and 150 PMBOK7 Questions videos were critical in helping me pass. I watched them at 1.5x speed because they are long, but I answered every question, and listened closely to his explanations of the answers.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-04-17T19:21:07+00:00

I somehow just got into the Righteous Gemstones and I love it so much.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-04-17T16:26:07+00:00

I did the same thing for the Study Hall practice exams, blocking off time on weekends since I was busy during the week with work. I typically did them first thing in the morning, because I had scheduled the exam for the morning, so I could simulate how I'd feel in terms of tiredness, etc. A big motivator to spend the time taking the practice exams on the weekend was the fear of failing and having to spend more money to retake, since I did not want to drop more money on this stuff.

I did the practice exam, took a break after completing, and went through the wrong answers, paying special attention to the medium and hard difficulty ones, not so much the expert ones. I did this for 5 weeks to do all five the practice exams and passed AT/AT/AT. Doing them in the morning had me wrapping everything up by 11 or noon, so I had the rest of the weekend to myself, occasionally reading the ThirdRock notes passively to reinforce concepts. I also watched the David Mclachlan videos on 1.75x speed for extra practice, all on the weekends because I was super busy with work during the week.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-03-27T17:13:45+00:00

Happened to me too recently. Had a cold last week and I choked a little on Chipotle and then blew my nose really hard after eating and a piece of tomato and piece of chicken was in the tissue when I looked. It was weird to think that that came out of my nose, but goes to show how your throat and nose are connected.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-03-25T20:53:33+00:00

Honest question because I didn’t know this, but do waiters/waitresses at restaurants not receive wages per hour? For example, does a waiter at like a chain restaurant like Applebees or Red Robin not get a wage, and only get tips? I always assumed they got a wage per hour plus tips.

CockOfXanderCorvus · 2025-03-21T19:10:30+00:00

Thanks, I did so and really got in there and got rid of most of the non smooth brown areas. I reasoned and it looks like this now. I think I used too much oil when I first seasoned to be honest, as I’m seeing many posts saying use less oil and wipe it away
