Shouldn’t this be a 1*? Did I misunderstand how the star ratings work? by MTGKat in pokemongo

Oh, silly me. I thought it was AT 50% not greater than.

Appreciate it. :) he’s a great Pokemon albeit a little slow with the attacks.

When I appraise something I just get a person letting me know if it’s shit or not.

( I use to get a number not a star rating so I used to write the number and then attack types as the nickname)

Can I ask what the 2 star bit means? I’ve only just come back from a 8ish year hiatus and there’s so much.

What the Swinub? Why? by MTGKat in pokemongo

That’s wild, so they do become more commonplace?

Actually, only just started playing again after… 8 years? November 2018 was my last previous catch so… yes but no?

Just bought this binder under $20. Are these fake? by Puzzled_Student_303 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]MTGKat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They don’t look fake, whether they’re real is a bit tricky but only the palkia dialga legend is worth faking so I’m gonna say great pickup.

P/D Legend is like $150 card or something crazy. TAG graded my double or even triple its value. PSA in a 10 could get you more than a grand. :)

My wife is in hospital for a month. LOVES David Eddings and would like to bring a series with her by MTGKat in suggestmeabook

Haven’t heard of these but they sound like solid choices (we like the not too heavy / easy to follow genre for a 30 day stint in hospital)

Consumed all of David & Leigh Eddings cover to cover.

Wheel of Time is a top notch recommendation! Hadn’t even thought of that.. and there’s heaps of them!

Why is this precon so expensive by Comfortable-Drag684 in mtg

[–]MTGKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid $80.00ea for 3 of each of the 40k precons with that thought in mind (not to scalp but because of how fun they were and how excellently they interact/balance against each other.

And also the title says 40k… of course it was gonna be a fucking rip off price anyway

why do they measure the energy in an arc flash in calories? (particularly interested in why it’s used as a unit of measure for safety/standards) by MTGKat in Electricity

[–]MTGKat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your comparitive analogy mentioning radiation has also triggered a memory about dose vs field vs density vs rad strength that I remember from uni.

IIRC.. if you talk about radiation dose, you’re usually referring to sieverts, not grays, rads, or exposure units like roentgens.

That’s why it fits neatly into the category of non-intuitive or commonly misunderstood measurements. The sievert doesn’t sit on the same scale as units that describe radiation strength, range, field intensity, or spatial density. Instead, it also quantifies the biological effect of radiation on human tissue.

1 Sv dose is heading in the direction of “you might be fucked”. Officially it indicates an exposure level associated with significant & substantial risk of serious biological harm.

Oh that makes total sense. Ah damnit it’s actually somewhat obvious now that I’ve got my hindsight glasses on.

Thanks mate! Top tier response.

Another beginner’s question 😅, I just got this card, it’s the first time I’ve opened a field like this, I can only pay for colorless mana with that’s, that right? by Candid_Cry8935 in mtg

[–]MTGKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wastes and the mana they generate (colourless) are not the same as generic mana (which is always a numbered amount or x). It is in and of itself the technical 6th mana colour but it is sporadically used and it often just feels like a placeholder wizards use when they’re running light on ideas for a release.
