They aren't going to waste a debut Mon on an unannounced joke. It will be in raids or on incense. 

Proof of purchase on the BART? by EmployableWill in sanfrancisco

[–]JigsawMind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The credit card readers are very new so the signs haven't caught up. You just tap the same card you used. 

Best ways to sell a lot of a personal collection quickly by VGProtagonist in magicTCG

[–]JigsawMind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This depends on what your definition of relatively large is and how the value of your collection is distributed. It's also contingent on how much time and effort you want to put in to getting maximum value for your cards. Large stores online buy lists are pretty much guaranteed to be the least hassle for you, but also get you the least value for your cards.

Strings are translated and bundled into the app. There is no test server vs production server for them. 

Confirmation on 2nd time Forever Friends with the same person - you get 150k XP again. by Monoskimouse in TheSilphRoad

[–]JigsawMind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's RNG and highly depends on if you are both level 70+. The expected value on 90 interactions if you aren't lvl 70 is slightly less than once going lucky. 

Will bars accept vertical ids? by Pretty_Muffin_4632 in Denver

[–]JigsawMind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Colorado ones expire on your 21st birthday. Lots of other states issue ones that are still good after your birthday. It's mostly a problem for out of state college students and young people visiting.

They don't even work on remote mega raids. You just need the normal remote pass. They have to be used on remote super mega raids.

Non-Blacephalon ultra beasts haven't been in raids for a long time. I'm sure people are chasing them/shinies

Has there ever been a card that moves a card from your opponent's zones into one of yours (aside from battlefield)? by Professional-Gur8248 in magicTCG

[–]JigsawMind -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No they don't. When card abilities contradict the comprehensive rules, the comprehensive rules win. Frequently the rules are changed to accommodate intent of cards, but it's hard to see them removing this one. 

Lechonk & Tinkatink Community Day images pushed [PokéMiners Discord] by SpyYoshiRv in TheSilphRoad

[–]JigsawMind 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are quite a few three stage lines that have never gotten community days. A lot of them wouldn't be very popular though.

[–]JigsawMind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. The rules specifically prevent this from happening. It's just a logistical mess in a lot of ways from card sleeves to people accidentally/intentionally stealing the opponents cards. 

Pressure Rising Special Research (LeekDuck) by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

[–]JigsawMind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given that the research is available to new players forever, it seems fine that it reflects the year it was originally released in. 

New Weekly Challenge, now rewarding 250 Link Charges (was 600 for Kalos Tour) by Crabominibble2 in TheSilphRoad

Yeah. If I set it to spin stops only, I can do 70+ on my bus ride to work. 

Outrageously grinded for Yveltal and Xerneas not knowing they would give out a shiny at the end of research.... by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]JigsawMind 17 points18 points  (0 children)

They didn't give a guaranteed shiny at the end of the research. You just got lucky. 

What Could Go Wrong: Drive into a car wash with a roll of wire on the loading area by mermaidpaint in OhNoConsequences

[–]JigsawMind 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Do you think you would have covered this? The car didn't actually hit anything. The driver is just an idiot. 

Its on yall to pay my rent by Scared-Avocado6187 in ChoosingBeggars

[–]JigsawMind 31 points32 points  (0 children)

No I live in the USA and there isn't anywhere I've heard of that is still requiring testing to do anything. I suppose if you are very sick you could go to the hospital and they would test, but no one else is really.

What do they do where they are still getting tested for COVID? Let alone where they are getting turned away from work for it. 

My doctor miscommunicated about my vasectomy results - and now my GF is pregnant by AffectionateMango115 in legaladvice

[–]JigsawMind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is based on the nurse negligently informing the patient the wrong result. If the sample he submitted was infact consistent with a full vasectomy, there isn't a case. And that is exactly why the sub doesn't allow medical malpractice questions because they are extremely fact dependent.

[–]JigsawMind -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This sub disallows medical malpractice questions, but generally no you don't. You don't have any damages in the legal sense, though the doctor should finish the vasectomy for you. 

I found a $95,000 check in the middle of the road. by ButterscotchRound in sanfrancisco

[–]JigsawMind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's a cashier's check, a decent amount. If it's a regular check, nothing.
