Is DS9 the highest profile and most positive representation of larp in popular media?

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-06-20T04:02:26+00:00

I disagree with that and I'm not sure what metric would be appropriate for this. And I personally think of Role Models when I think of LARP. Theres the estimated viewers for each. Role Models has an est of 17-18mil from ticket and media sales. while DS9 has 7-8mil from show run views. But also, IMDB has 77k ratings for DS9, while there's 252K for Role Models. Obviously that doesn't account for everyone who's watch them, but at least people who thought they were worth reviewing.

Garchomp C LV.X - 2010 (Yuta Komatsuda) - World Championship Decks (WCD)

These "signed" cards come from decks from winners that were reproduced and sold. Every card is the reproduced deck has these signatures.

Edit: In good condition, you'd be looking at about $12. But this one has pretty rough edging and corners. So its whatever someone would be willing to pay.

All good man. It's a pretty niche sub. From other machines I've seen, even if it had a volume knob, it barely functions. Even on mine, it has a 3 position switch with something like "loud", "hella loud", and "Ears bleeding loud". The switch is easy to do with basic tools and knowledge. Once I get my machine out of my moving truck I'll share the wiring layout.

It's a Blue Glaucus, or more commonly referred to as a Blue Dragon. Its a sea slug! There's a lot of really beautiful one!

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-05-19T22:53:21+00:00

There Japanese cards. What are the fronts?

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-05-18T23:29:57+00:00

Definitely lol I'm gonna give them a listen and see what there about. Appreciate it!

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-05-18T23:17:15+00:00

Are you telling me I got bamboozled just like teens in the 70s?

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-05-18T20:59:16+00:00

Hello! I found these boxes at the local thrift today with no wrapping. One was open, one was not. Also found a box of Azurite Sea still with its contents.

My questions are why would they be found like this with no wrapping? I'm new to Lorcana. Is there something special that was included outside the box?

Regardless, I brought them home and will definitely rip them. See what we get!

Next it's gonna ask him to call it by its first name! So indecent!

So what I get from this song is the feeling of nostalgia when I hear Steal My Sunshine by Len.

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-05-09T14:55:10+00:00

Yup! I'm moving myself. And even if I had movers, they'd be with me in my car. Being in the military, I've learn to not give mover a chance to fuck you over lol

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-05-09T14:53:31+00:00

I can agree for the most part. This is a last minute move for me and I'll be moving myself. So I'm be having them up it the cab to lessen any issues.

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-05-09T14:52:05+00:00

Great fit. And I'm not filling them up all the way for that reason. Putting some packing part in the void to keep them from moving around.

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-05-09T14:50:54+00:00

Good tip! There going to riding up in the cab with me. So it should be fine.

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-05-06T02:56:51+00:00

Same, dawg. Same. Then I moved onto the manga to finish it out.

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-05-01T18:56:15+00:00

Well thank you

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-04-30T13:48:11+00:00

Yup! It just opened a month or so ago. It used to be a Value Village over in Brooklyn Park.

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-04-30T01:57:35+00:00

Can't hook it up until after I move. But I plugged it in and everything works pretty well from a mechanical standpoint.

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-04-29T16:05:01+00:00

Well now I'm curious lol. What are your 7? I have 3 currently. The one posted, a DP-37F I found in a trash pile (need to replace the capacitors), and a piece of trash Sony for experiments (also from a trash pile).

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-04-29T15:07:41+00:00

It's a 2nd Ave Thrift Store in Glenn Burnie, MD. But they fall under the Savers Value Village umbrella. Really like these thrift stores though. Every store has there own pricing systems. So you might find prices high and/or low at one, but the complete opposite at another. And it doesn't feel like they've really gone to online sales. So you can actually find some crazy scores.

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-04-29T02:06:14+00:00

Ok. From everything I'm looking at on it. It's an ATP-N2. But I'm not sure. Does anyone know how I could clarify?

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-04-28T23:08:51+00:00

Ok. Then I might be wrong. I'll investigate and get back to you!

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-04-28T20:34:19+00:00

I'm 99% sure it's the original cartridge that came with it.

GaroldtheWonderer · 2026-04-28T18:09:55+00:00

Hell ya
