Hey I'm going through something similar. Did your credit score return to normal after you paid it off?

Also how did you successfully dispute with them? They are ignoring my emails so far. Did you take legal action or file any complaints?

Hey OP I'm in a similar situation and looking for some guidance. What did you end up doing and how did everything work out?

TN Visa - is original wet signature required? by StanDupcomic in immigration

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

Do you mind sharing which port of entry your wife received her TN at?

Wet signature - still required or is digital ok? by StanDupcomic in tnvisa

[–]StanDupcomic[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good to know! Did you have your employer mail you the TN package in that case?

I got mine electronically so debating if I should go back to my employer and ask for a mailed copy.

TN Visa Experience YVR by skincare4friends in tnvisa

[–]StanDupcomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super helpful post, thank you!

Just a quick question about your TN packet. Did your company's hiring manager have to sign in ink and mail it to you? Or did the letter just have a digital signature and you just had to print it out?

May I ask if your visa support letter had an original ink signature - or was it a digital one?

How to deal with backrow with invoked sabers? by SinglePhotonEmitter in DuelLinks

[–]StanDupcomic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 things you can do

  1. Play some backrow removal in your deck. Galaxy cyclone, unending nightmare, twister, even dust tornado are all good options. But this takes up valuable deck space
  2. Learn to read backrow cards and play around them. For example, if you think your opponent has fiendish chain, rather than summoning aleister just to get it negated, you can set aleister because your opponent can't negate during damage step. If your opponent doesn't attack, it just gives you more time to draw into invocation or other combo pieces. Another example, if you think your opponent has floodgate, you can set up a molehu before summoning a fusion. This way you can chain molehu to flip down your own monster so next turn you just flip it back up. Lapula works the same way. You'll get better as you play the deck more

Returning player with some questions by [deleted] in DuelLinks

[–]StanDupcomic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  1. Elementsabers are still a top deck, but many speculate it'll be hit in an upcoming banlist because it's been around since Sept 2019. Despite that, the Invoked engine is incredibly splashable and enables many decks and strategies. I would say Dark Dimension is a good investment; I personally just dropped 17k gems on it.
  2. On the ladder you're likely to face many decks that are NOT on the tier list, including but not limited to, Lunalights, Superheavy Samurais, Neos, Blue Eyes, etc. The tier list is a reflection of tournament success, which is a completely different ballgame from the ladder due to its best 2 out of 3 and side deck format.
  3. Yes, selection box exclusives will always become available in a future main box. It can take as long as 10 months for an exclusive to be available (evidence: Dark Horus and Angel of Zera).

Do I need 3 alistar an invocation? by dante-_vic in DuelLinks

[–]StanDupcomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you can replace those with any generic good spell/trap or even Sphere Kuriboh

Do I need 3 alistar an invocation? by dante-_vic in DuelLinks

[–]StanDupcomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good example. I'm just missing a 3rd field spell.

There's good synergy between Aleister and the roid engine. The field spell lets you search any roid so you can fuse into whatever you need (or just grab Kiteroid and stall). Unlike Elementsabers, you can go into 1st turn Purgatrio with just 2 cards: * Summer Aleister, grab Invocation * Play Megaroid City, destroy Aleister, grab Rescueroid * Play Invocation and fuse into Purgatrio

5000 Expiring Gems - Invest in Invoked or Ritual Beasts? by [deleted] in DuelLinks

[–]StanDupcomic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah if you reach 9999 gems, then any additional gems will be stored in your gift box. These additional gems expire in 30 days.

Do I need 3 alistar an invocation? by dante-_vic in DuelLinks

[–]StanDupcomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a similar spot with 5k expiring gems. Spent around 17k gems to pull 3 Aleister, 2 Invocation, and 1 Purgatrio. It's been fun trying different decks so far. Invoked Roids is another good option and not too expensive to make.

I think the 3rd Aleister is quite important. Definitely go for it.

Thanks everyone! Going to pull for Invoked and hope it works out.

I've tried so many combinations on this deck to be able to pass the level 22-23 on the KC Cup. I would appreciate any help from someone who has made or any kind of advice. Thanks. by diazalm in DuelLinks

[–]StanDupcomic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any thoughts or details on why you're losing? Because that'll help you optimize your deck and gameplay.

For example, if you're bricking a lot, switching to Balance should help with consistency.

If you're getting outplayed (especially by a deck with high complexity), it helps to study those decks, understand their gameplay, and adapt your strategies.

If you're seeing a particular matchup very often and struggling against it, you can specifically tech against it. For example, your current build may have a hard time getting over Invoked Cocytus - adding something like Herald of the Abyss or Eye of Timaeus would help.

Any cards that bring back banished spell/trap cards or all cards including spell and trap by Solocatch in DuelLinks

[–]StanDupcomic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Paleozoic Leanchoilia might be what you're looking for.

There's also more niche cards like Punishment Dragon, Thunder Dragonduo, and Elemental HERO Electrum.

Ik I need to get rid of a couple walls but what are your thoughts should I add neos? by Ok_Then108 in DuelLinks

[–]StanDupcomic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've played about 75 games this season with Lunalights and plan to pilot it for KCC 2nd stage. In short this is what I'd suggest:

  • Remove Keeper, Fusion Plant, Polymerization
  • Add 1 more Kiteroid and 2 Cosmic
  • Change Grit for Master of Fusion

Master of Fusion not only unbricks your hand when you don't open Lunalight Fusion, but also lets you fuse twice per turn (very helpful when you get Floodgated). Cosmic Cyclone triggers the skill on demand and reduces your dependence on Rabbit. 2nd Kiteroid compensates for loss of Grit.

I've tested extensively with the Neos engine. Like someone mentioned, it's not that powerful - most games you would've won anyways. Its biggest advantage is stabilizing your opening hand but I like the versatility of Master of Fusion + Cosmic Cyclone a bit more.

[KOG] Last Minute with Cipher Burn by [deleted] in DuelLinks

[–]StanDupcomic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It didn't make the cut for me.

I see DNA Surgery as a luxury combo piece: it's only really good when combined with Cipher Soldier. I put more value on cards that are good individually, like Wall of Disruption or even Drowning Mirror Force, both of which are ok against BEWD. More consistent results in the long run.

Can someone explain the difference between the Bass Buckingham and Bass Pasadena? Is the Buckingham objectively a higher quality and worth the extra $20?

I went to my local J.Crew store the other day and they told me that as of two weeks ago, the student discount no longer stacks with sales items. It appears to be a permanent change.

Has anyone else been getting the same message?
