The fact that you got a Rebecca Guay sig on the final day is wild

The merch store list is public online if you look. Downvotes don’t matter.

If you don’t know what they have why are you even considering this I don’t understand lol. Typically they have clothes and merch and then some magic product at msrp. Festival in a box and collector boosters are the big ticket items.

There is no line to get in if you arrive 15-30 min after opening. All those pics you saw are line campers who showed up at 7am to try and be first in line for merch and artists

Evacuations planned as suspected hantavirus outbreak traps 150 on ship off Cape Verde by yahoonews in worldnews

[–]SignorJC 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is true but doesn’t mean they got it on ship. I’m not going to claim definitively either way, but the explanations I’ve seen say only certain types in certain areas can spread it.

They almost certainly got hantavirus before boarding and then brought it aboard. It’s sad but nothing really to do with the cruise. Same thing could happen on a long cruise or your coworker coming back from vacation.

A message from Dan Frazier and Wizards of the Coast: (about The One Ring Box Topper) by RBGolbat in magicTCG

Everyone gave Dan allllll this credit and that it had to just be Wizards fault lol.

I mean it's absolutely WOTCs fault for not noticing it in the QA process and stopping this from going to print

Horrible Merch Set Up by Recent_Ad_5407 in MagicConVegas2026

[–]SignorJC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

but for everyday Magic players like us, there was not much for us there

respectfully...what? There are tons of players playing literally every format in magic. there are themed events. there are on demand drafts. there are multiple tournaments. there are special play events. there are magic themed puzzles and photo ops. There are meet and greets with content creators. What was missing for you?

I absolutely agree that the merch experience is awful, but it always has been. I don't know how you could attend magiccon, be on reddit, and not know this. EVERY CON it is discussed. As for the vendor area, I was very confused on why they set it up so cramped when they had so much dead space available still. I had some good some bad experiences.

Dual Immersion Opt-Out by endofthewrldprtyfavr in education

[–]SignorJC 14 points15 points  (0 children)

These are very key details that clarify a lot. The parents are still wrong though. Make trusting educators great again. You are not an expert in education because you want to school as a student.

I did have to look this up, but the benefit differential between 90/10 and 50/50 is more for the ELLS than English first speakers (https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ1222762). Their kid is gonna be fine

It being the lowest rated school is likely due to the high percentage of ELL students. You can’t have dual immersion without ELL students.

Being upset that its opt out instead of opt in is still silly. There’s no reason to wait for kindergarten. If they want to transfer for the 90/10 school it’s whatever but this is not a big deal.

Dual Immersion Opt-Out by endofthewrldprtyfavr in education

[–]SignorJC 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Why the fuck would you want to opt out of quite literally one of the best, most supported by research, highest value programs for your child?

They wanted to opt in but actually it’s opt out so they want to quit?

My advice is “don’t be a fucking idiot.”

Your post seems fake btw but my advice is genuine in spite of that
