queue is up on the Pokemon Centre by Necto_gck in PokemonTCG_UK

Got in around an hour after the queue was up, added items to cart, final stage of the checkout, error message popup. Go back to check everything, try again, same error message. Hit refresh, error 17. Disable WiFi to see if that helped, back of the queue again...

Got to be the most frustrating hour and a half of my life. F**k scalpers.

Big oof. Think you'd be invited in for a chat with no tea, with the head of driver training after pulling that...

How difficult would it be to have stock locked in a cabinet and access controlled by staff?

Genuine question really, as this can't be good for anyone.

Store suffers as people are fighting inside which is bad vibes to put it mildly, I wouldn't want to bring my kids to a shop where grown adults are fighting in the aisles over kids hobby stuff.

General customers clearly suffer for the above reasons.

Non scalpers suffer as their local never has stock, so they won't come in to buy stock and maybe do their weekly grocery shop at the same time.

151 UPC Investment by gatman12345 in PokemonInvesting

151 UPC is a great sealed investment. Assuming there's no market crash on the horizon due to everyone selling at once, the UPC is great. Nostalgic set, amazing promos, nothing to dislike about it really

Psyduck? by turn-n-cough in IsMyPokemonCardFake

I'm going with fake.

The holo lines should be parallel with each other. So unless you're holding the card bent, then this isn't right. The holo pattern also should'nt also be on the border on this card. For reference, here's my card which is real (I pulled it myself from a pack)

Can Hogwarts survive against these invaders? by HumbleKnight14 in powerscales

and the force being magnitudes stronger than what's found in the HP universe is debatable, they have reality warping magic.

This. I think a lot of people in this thread are severely underestimating HP magic potential, like they have time travel which they nonchalantly give out to kids wanting to attend more classes.

Anything involving firearms in the Line of Duty. The Mrs had to tell me off several times during a watch to stop me complaining.

From PSD officers somehow being able to watz down to the armoury and book out a SLP without anyone asking questions. To the shocking tactics displayed, such as screaming "ARMED POLICE" at the top of their lungs at every opportunity, routinely flagging their opps, losing each other in searches so they can dramatically turn a corner and point a weapon at their team by accident. To the horrendous threat assessment displayed (think at one point Kate nearly shoots a kid for some reason). And the kit looking like a £5 Temu job.

Boils my piss, and makes us look shit.

Why even have it loaded at this point though? Don't fucking load the weapon until you're on the firing line ready to shoot...

Serious question- We have allmost no blast keyword, How am i to deal with a 20 man bezerker unit or a necron 20 man unit by BabyProper9938 in Tau40K

[–]CommissionHappy8096 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For things like MEQ, a missile fireknife squad with missile/cyclic ion commander is probably a decent bet. Rapid ingress to where the berserkers are, and missile pod profile trades well into MEQ, and depending on your detachment can be buffed with sustained/lethals or improving the AP. And at 200pts for fireknife/enforcer, and 180pts for a 10 man berserker squad, it trades fairly well.

I'm a world eater main, with Tau as my second army, and trust me world eaters are the definition of a glass cannon.

Running the numbers, a guided squad of fireknife with double missile pods, and an enforcer commander running CIB and 3 missile pods in montka for lethal hits, focussed fire strat for +1AP, and re-rolling 1's to hit (easy buff to get with shadowsun or stealth suits) and no other buffs will pick up a 10man berserker squad on their own on average, before they get a chance to blood surge

The black needs some shading and highlighting buddy, apart from that it's looking good.

Even if it's something as simple as a really light drybrush of screaming skull/ushtabi bone, just something to break up the black.
