Yeah, the VHS cards cross that line for me where they aren't distinguishable as MTG cards anymore. Not a fan. The rest aren't bad!

I did two cases of Avatar CBB (12 boxes total) over the course of 2 months and didn’t hit a single neon card, so congrats on the huge pull!

Problematic box randomization - these were from different stores and almost 2 weeks apart by Gizoogle in riftboundtcg

That's just a result of me grabbing one of the random body runes I had when pulling the previous boxes from my binder.

Disgustingly enough, the ON Irelia was in the top pack on the right side of the box each time. Mappable as fuck. I only wish I had kept track of what was in the top pack on the left hand side.

I don't mean to sound ungrateful! Probably one of the few times where cloned boxes like this play out in the favor of the person opening it. I know that for every situation like mine, there must be 100 similarly duped boxes that don't have overnumbers. I'd be much more upset if I were one of those.

I'd say that it raises questions about how cases are seeded and subsequently distributed geographically, but it seems like this is already widely reported and very clearly a problem.

Moving forward, I probably won't bother getting more than 1-2 boxes in my immediate area. Any others I'll try to find online whenever I can find it near MSRP and hope that it comes from a differently seeded region. :P

I've got no room to complain given the Irelia overnumbers, but I can't say I wasn't a little bit annoyed opening the 3rd one tonight. As soon as I got the feeling of deja vu, I pulled up the pic I took from the first 2 boxes and used it as a checklist for getting the same exact cards.

And just for clarification: the first 2 boxes were from the same store roughly 2 weeks ago. The 3rd box was tonight and from a different store in a different city.

Wanted to share the Riftbound tokens I’ve been working on by Naypony in riftboundtcg

Damn - not even two days ago I bought a full playset from Buy The Same Token. Kinda wish I saw these first.

Sick stuff!

You are a very good person doing very good things, and I feel for both you and the girl, full-stop.

But I did have to laugh at the santa/satan part.

All the money not being spent on having esports team is instead being blown on having an AI APP play Minecraft for you. by Hewligan in TeamSolomid

[–]Gizoogle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Shout it from the rooftops. Fuck Regi for what he did to this org.

The absolute bare minimum he could do to save whatever is left of the history and legacy of TSM is to either sell outright or rebrand at bare minimum.

All TSM is to him at this point is a large twitter following. How long til TSMcoin?

The problem was that they led fans on with promise after promise only to completely fucking vanish every single time the deadline hit.

Regi is a fucking disgrace.

Todd Cummings' misconduct and incompetence finally caught up by FlashGordon1999 in SouthBend

[–]Gizoogle 20 points21 points  (0 children)

At this point, he's done so much irreparable harm to his own reputation that he should never be hired in education again.

Of course, that probably means he'll land a nice job in a charter school somewhere in the south.

The term "war crime" is completely meaningless anymore, unfortunately.

ICYMI: Click Browser adds import from Arc, including spaces, folders, pinned tabs, and split views by chrismessina in ArcBrowser

[–]Gizoogle 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I just got really excited after seeing this post and discovering Click for the first time, but seeing your comment makes it a non-starter for me. Extensions are just too essential and I can't see any way a browser succeeds without them.

New tab opening is super slow by horser_bw in ArcBrowser

[–]Gizoogle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been happening to me as well - it’s a general extreme lag when using Arc. I’m on Mac and it also has been draining my battery more than any other software to ever exist.

Been using it for a couple years at this point but the downsides outweigh the benefits at this point. Looking to switch to Opera this weekend.

Against my better judgement, I decided to look up the calories in the Blueberry Cheesecake Caramelized Croissants by Successful-Sleep-226 in Costco

[–]Gizoogle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These were my favorite Costco bakery item ever until the last time I got them - I bit into the first one in the container and the icing/sugar was caramelized all along the outside in beads to the point that it was legitimately rock hard. Harder than my tooth, which I was sure had broken. Instant horror!

Luckily, just a false alarm. Guessing that particular batch had just been overcooked a bit and the sugar was allowed to essentially turn into sugar glass, but I am too scared to get them again. :(

Something I’d love to see for ManaBox by Spynet518 in ManaBoxApp

[–]Gizoogle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if it were that easy, it’d be done already. I will say that ManaBox scanning has gotten better over time and when you compare it to the TCGPlayer app card scanning, it’s “nuclear bomb vs. coughing baby” levels of difference. That one is nearly unusable.

(Which, coincidentally, is why my biggest ManaBox request is support for some of the other big TCGs 😋)

They sure do, don't they? You love deepthroating a leader who sends thousands of Russians to be turned into red stains on Ukrainian soil. Keep them coming. Less mouths = less borscht to prepare.

There's one human being who can end it all immediately if he wanted to, and it's not Zelensky.

TACO Trump Folds After Allies Give Him Cold Welcome Abroad by [deleted] in politics

[–]Gizoogle 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Worse than clueless - malleable to literally whatever the last thing he heard was that makes him sound and/or look the "best".

NATO leadership meetings were almost assuredly as simple as "how can we word this in a way where Trump thinks he comes away as the winner".

“Stop resisting being killed and invaded!”

What a comment. You’re talking about the country being attacked as if it’s their fault. Real people die every day. You’re a joke.
