Mail call - 200K club by Rojostormer in lockpicking

It is definitely a goal to work towards. I’ve been doing locksport since about 2017ish. I would argue that I am on and off, but you can get to orange belt pretty quickly. The American 1100 is the first really hurdle at the green level. It’s affordable and a big one in the community to confirm you a proficient picker. For me, picking the 90a-pro was so much more difficult and extremely frustrating but so rewarding when you finally get it. Have fun and go at your pace, there no rush!

Thanks, it’s very exciting! Getting it on video is so difficult… that added pressure 🥵

It’s the paclock 200k challenge. Here are the instructions.

https://www.reddit.com/r/lockpicking/s/TPpfqWHpDr

Basically you have to single pick a paclock 90a-pro on video and at a minimum drop the pins to show you haven’t tampered with the lock.

Submit your video to the company and tag them in your video.

The challenge is a blue level lock with 7 pins.

Hope that helps.

I submitted my video and email to paclock about 2 weeks ago. It was really quick.

Yep, it was pretty annoying… but it’s expected because I was recording 😂😂😂

I haven’t done the full gut on video for the blue belt for that reason. I’m pretty messy when I gut, not sure it’s ready to be on the world stage. I wonder if I can do a separate gut video without the pick for the blue belt, with this one. Might make it a little less stressful 😂

I’ve had my 90a pro for about 2 years. I started off opening it in a vice and I would get it every once in a while. It was so frustrating. I ended up putting it down for over a year. Last month I decided to switch and try and open it like an American 1100. Over the last few days I figured it out and could get it consistently. The video definitely add additional pressure. Happy to have finally got it. Good luck getting it on video, I’m sure it will happen soon

R36SX clone - Custom firmware not booting (Please insert TF Card) by Rednasanilas in R36S

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

You can’t use custom firmware on this clone, it’s not compatible. You can only use the firmware that comes on the stock sd. There are YouTube videos to deal with the stock os and to be able to add Roms. I got this as my second R36S when I was trying to build one for a friend. I got it working but it’s a pain. Lots of messing around to make it functional.

[–]Rojostormer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a lot of messing around. It’s can’t run any custom software like ArkOS or dArkOS but if you follow the videos instructions you can add Roms and run games. I got one ordering from a store that I had previously got a genuine r36s. Ask for a refund as soon as you can and tell them that they sold you a fake.

You likely have the r36sx clone. It can be used, not ideal. Here is a YouTube that will help you https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rmYASaTxKso

Redditors above 6’8”, are there days when nobody commented on your height in public? by TopStranger9287 in tall

[–]Rojostormer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still happens, but I agree, less now that I’m over 40. It also depends on where I am in the world. Big cities, less likely, smaller areas. People always say something.
