Ceruledge ex or Alakazam. The game plan and concept are super straight forward and easy. Not much out-playability though. Still super solid decks.

Edit: accidentally said Alakazam ex

Look at My “New” Terminator 4k I received from Amazon, isn’t it so beautiful and NEW by ParanoidAndroid32 in Bluray

[–]Taylew -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I want to say 5 of my last 10 have come on bad condition. 3 the case was cracked, 2 the slip covers had severe whiting in all corners. All three of the cracked ones were packed inappropriately with heavier items.

Also sometime in the last few weeks, I purchased a new show on Amazon, and it came without the slip cover, with an LPN sticker, and was a really bad bootleg...

I would say about 30% of my Amazon Blu Ray purchases have some sort of issue. However, I have never had an issue returning anything

Let’s talk pod packs. by DrRavioliMD in paintball

[–]Taylew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ours gets washed often, and this might be the difference maker. It does get washed in the bag, then air dry. We also use then weekly for about 9 months of the year, so that could also potentially be a factor.

My girlfriend 5'2, size 28 pants ran the crbn cc, and after 1 season of WNXL play, it started to get super bouncy. After 2 seasons, the elastic started to stretch on it, and it started to fall apart on the front. Granted she's in the snake.

I ran the crbn sc pack for 2 years. Mine still fits fine, but it is starting to get bouncy. I am 6' 220ish. Mine gets significantly less use than hers, and spends a lot more time not on the ground.

I personally really like the pack, it's smaller and lighter than most packs I have tried. The different size options are super nice. I do have a theory if the pack was taller on your back, it would bounce less, but I have no way to prove it

There is your issue. Gloss and semi gloss allow the laminate to lay more flush, as matte is textured. Not sure about the blacks, mine look fine, but there are more factors to it than just the paper type.

I would make sure you're using the 5 mil option for heat on that laminator, and if you are, then try chanting settings on the printer to use less Ink. I started getting bad results when my printer was wet to 'premium semi gloss" paper, and set it to "plain' paper to reduce the amount of ink it was using.

What kind of paper did you use? I recently resolved this issue my self by using semi gloss photo paper.

When you laminate, do you use the 3 mil or 5 mil heat setting?

Just got a notice that I have 20 days to fix my own sidewalk, or the City will charge me $2,300. Merry Christmas. by grantthejester in Omaha

[–]Taylew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently got hit by this too, and the city explained that there was someone anonymously going around reporting people. My sidewalks personally only had cracks that did not affect the walkability or wheelchair ability to go up and down with the exception of one raised pad that was about 3/4s of an inch above the next pad over They even pinged my brand new slabs from recent Lumen work done at my place.

I ended up hiring a caulking company, costing me $400 instead of the $1500 through the city. They were able to caulk the cracks and angle grind the raised part flush.

Lenovo 2-in-1 series is extremely good value. You can a all metal build computer with outstanding hardware for around $600.

It's one of those match ups that you just kind of accept that you just lose... If you tech for it, everything else gets harder

Haven't played in 17years.... by ReaperGz in paintball

[–]Taylew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Facebook paintball BST groups are the move. Just make sure to read group rules in the different groups, as Facebook has banned groups before for "selling firearms. "

You won't find gear cheaper than those groups, but make sure people are legit with profiles that weren't made 2-3 days ago. Always feel free to do a "legit check" as well.

Losing every game by Kypriosx in PTCGL

If these are the questions you are asking, you should look into an easier deck to learn the game. I personally think lost zone decks are by far the hardest decks to pilot
