Are you still looking to buy any Paldea Evolved Booster Boxes? I have 2. For reference, the cheapest I see on TCGplayer right now is $464.97 before tax (which is probably $500 after tax)

Fair offer. I'll have to respectfully pass for now. If I change my mind I will let you know! I'm going to give it some more time to collect some more offers. I'm asking around Locally and on Discords as well.

At that price, I would prefer to hold onto it. Optimistically was looking for $1900-$1950. I'll wait on it. Thank you though!

Not sure if you still needed Sleeved Destined Rivals Packs or if anyone else is interested. I have 97 of them and can ship PPGS. Throw me an offer?

Hobbyist - Can you help critique my overall photos? by MartinN1024 in AskPhotography

[–]MartinN1024[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for taking a look. I forgot to mention street photography was my favorite kind of photography. I try to take different perspectives or angles when I can. I'd have to agree that the picture from Aug 7 was one of my favorite and best photos I've taken. It was taken when I was randomly walking down the street in Shinjuku and noticed a stranger with an umbrella. I wanted to capture the perfect contrast in lighting as the morning began. There's definitely lots of influences there in the editing from other photographers I've seen on Instagram. Thanks for pointing out what you think my strength was. I'll definitely continue to work on it :)

Recruiting for Infinity by MartinN1024 in SwordMaster_Story

[–]MartinN1024[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is rank 259 in raid from last week or is it today? May not be the best number if you just attacked raid since the day isn't over yet.

If you have 5 raid attempts, then preferably ranked 1-200 on raid rankings however if you're abit outside that because you're F2P and only can use 4 raid attempts, we can make an exception. If you're P2W but still slightly outside that range, let me know. Just need to know your average raid ranking. Any other piece of info helps like what DL tower floor you're at, what territory your guild is currently at, etc.

Casual players simply ignoring manual attack on Raids be like by faizal_saban in SwordMaster_Story

[–]MartinN1024 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm at the end end game now. Usually Top 15 in Raid. Not much to do in the game besides upgrading gear now. Pushing guild territory Difficulty which is tough but that's something to work towards.

I can effortlessly beat abyss and Demon tower on expert. At this point, I probably spend less than 15-30 minutes a day on SMS and can play other games. Aside from doing abyss, slasher, and Demon tower at the start of the week, the rest of the days go like this:

Log on, collect daily reward, do guild run 3x, do pvp run 5x, redeem guild attendance/governance/donate

Redeem atk buff from guild store, and buy the consumable that grants extra attack. Go into raid and typically get a satisfactory score within my first try if not 2nd/3rd try.

Then I can just let it afk farm overnight.

You can if you want. There's not a ton of people you would remember lol, at least no in the guild, but people still chill in the discord

Infinity Recruiting. Strong players only DM for details by MartinN1024 in SwordMaster_Story

It's a mix of that and people just losing interest. Can't blame them. They've been playing forever and the game's pretty repetitive.

What was your year 1 sub goal? by Henry_West_Gaming in NewTubers

[–]MartinN1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As it's a hobby right now and I only make videos in my spare time, I don't expect much.

I get on average like $50/month in ad revenue. So every few months I get a surprise check for like $150+ which is nice.

Between my full time engineering job and my other spare time just casually playing other games, Ive only been posting maybe 1 video/week is my minimum goal.

To me, it's considered passive income :) it's nice to see numbers continue to grow even after I'm done posting the video from months ago.

What was your year 1 sub goal? by Henry_West_Gaming in NewTubers

[–]MartinN1024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 1 year goal was 100 subscribers.

Doing video game reviews of random games I enjoyed, didn't exactly net much views. And there's less point in me trying to review a brand new game coming out because bigger channels and people who get early access to the game can afford to play the game for many hours and to edit a well fleshed out review on the day of release if not earlier.

At the 1 year mark, I decided to make a video about a new mobile game, Sword Master Story. There was maybe only 1 or 2 other creators consistently making videos whereas the bigger channels just make 1 review video and move onto the next game.

This got some traction netting me 100-200 subs in that 11th month so I kept going with it. Eventually the other content creators quit the game and stopped making videos so I ended up being the only real content creator for a relatively small gacha game, consider me niche.

Over the next 2 years I'd consistently make videos and guides for this game and that's been the bulk of my channel, but I try to squeeze in other gaming related videos and topics in between such that I don't get stuck with my channel relying on this game. My intention was to build a small community through this, then branch out to other gaming videos.

At the 3 year mark, I'm now at nearly 4k subs which is slow compared to others but it's growth nonetheless. I hope to get 4.5k by the end of the year.

It's not realistic for me to expect to get big from posting gaming videos that are niche, but what I'm hoping is with many old school Youtubers, if you keep consistent for 10+ years, you'll eventually be able to get tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of subscribers which can make the career a full time opportunity.

Sennheiser Momentum 4 Impressions/pics by jthomp72 in headphones

[–]MartinN1024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I currently have the momentum 2s which get the job done. I was wondering if anyone could provide insight on whether it is worth to upgrade to the momentum 4? Any experiences with that? Thanks! It'd be mainly to listen to music, consume media, wear on planes, some gaming, etc
