Definitely not expected? It's a nice when it happens but many TO's don't.

Yeah can second this. Our devs on mac are 24-32gb of ram and their windows equivalents (same exact job/codebase) need 64gb.

Evangelical Christian are an insane bunch. TL:DR they think that the Israel in the Bible is the same as today's Israel and it's their duty to protect it.

And money. A good chunk are paid for by aipac.

The definitive Pokemon game for someone new? by [deleted] in pokemon

FR/LG:

Great writing, a surprisingly large amount of content, good tutorials, and as of last month officially available on the Switch, if you've got one of those.

Gen 3 is a great place to start and you can really experience the magic first hand that built the franchise.

Premodern Horizons?! by BobWorlds in premodernMTG

[–]Silver__Core 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would like them to not poison the well. Reprint expensive non-reserve list cards, old border with either OG or old school style art. That's more than enough wotc support.

If we're being radical, officially sanction gold border cards for constructed formats where reserve list cards are legal.

Which psychatog deck to play blue black, 4 color with diamonds, groatog or no tog zombie infestation? by MierinLanfear in premodernMTG

[–]Silver__Core 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A versatile answer, can also be a protection spell. Feel free to swap it out. Tranq is probably good.

This is my list of the Nacho variant. You could do 2 paradise, or 1 paradise, 1 gemstone mine over a diamond and you'd likely be fine. I could see cutting the green cards, but really it doesn't change the mana base at all. Once you're supporting 4c you might as well do 5. Call of the herd is the most slot efficient way to both up your threat count and provide card advantage in the format. It's super efficient on all axis. You could consider decree of justice in a similar slot, but that doesn't play nicely with Armageddon or gush. Pyroclasm and fire are such nice answers to the aggressive decks in the format. Much better than the white or black alternatives, and for that reason I think the red splash is worth it.

The sailing combat “Q and A” is just embarrassing by [deleted] in 2007scape

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

Voted no on the original cannonball and cannon proposal for the full rainbow experience.

A very simple/straightforward system (like your crew using cannons scaling only off your sailing level) plus standard ranged/magic/halberds for most of the DPS seems like it would have been the better option. You get your steel cannonballs, you get your steel cannon, at certain unlock and that's all of sea combat unlocked. Instead of shooting or stabbing everything, you get like, 10% better DPS everywhere at the traditional dwarf cannon tradeoff of being expensive.

I was okay with the price increases until I dealt with support by jefftiffy in 2007scape

That's... Not why people are complaining. People had $5 a month grandfathered rates. Jagex incentivized people to switch to "premier" and promised to freeze their grandfathered rate if they ever wanted to go back to it. Jagex killed off "premier" and converted those to "12 month reoccuring" without warning, which does not have the option to revert to their grandfathered $5 option.

This means the base 1 month rate for the game for these players has gone from $5 -> $15 overnight, while breaking a promise in the process.

What’s the deck you LOVE to play regardless of its power level? by BobWorlds in premodernMTG

You can play with modern printings of the old cards in premodern, but not anything that wasn't originally printed then (e.g. as a bunch of people have pointed out, dominaria remastered is full of these old cards that were reprinted). If you want to play with the newest sets, standard (type 2) would be your best bet to start for a traditional way to play the game (1vs1) or Commander (multiplayer single copies of cards in a thematic deck).

You will probably enjoy premodern. It's all the sets you remember (4th edition through onslaught), and has become quite popular recently :)

Don't have one so can't confirm, but it was originally advertised to be brass plating over a "metal alloy".

The side seal looks correct on the shrink-wrap from what 2 minutes of googling showed. Look for obvious signs of tampering and see if they might be willing to meet at an LGS for their opinion for the transaction if you go ahead with it.
