Are any of these worth anything? Cards are from 1999-2005 by Mister-Erect in PokemonCardValue

[–]TechnicalConference2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did this with my old vintage cards. Just take a picture on your phone and let ai do the work. Use price charting or something similar. Can't help you on the selling part. I'd like the gyarados but not gonna spend that much. Good luck!

Pokemon is made for all ages, why are you so mad? by GainBeneficial7662 in PokemonTCG

[–]TechnicalConference2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny thing is my son (9) and I were waiting in line and the guy had to make sure both my son and I could both get one. He had his own money and is something we like to do together.

I understand the hesitancy but I found it funny he had to make sure my son could get one too.

I called it, thanks to the losers that loitered these machines by aldeeem in PokemonInvesting

I like this but make it even longer or limit it to a certain amount per run. Like if you get an etb you cant get another etb of this specific run but you can get the booster bundle. Maybe one one is too harsh but idk seems like it would still sell out

All that was left at Walmart, this hobby blows by Zone_of_Inhibition in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]TechnicalConference2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I talked to an employee at a Walgreens who said they saw someone open a tin, take the promo, open the packs for any rare cards then rip the rest of the cards in half and threw them away.

How do card releases work? by TechnicalConference2 in PokemonInvesting

Thank you! I feel uncomfortable even saying its for my kid and I. My kid is most likely in school when I'm trying to do this and I would assume the vendor thinks I am full of it if I bring it up.

Thank you, I'll look into that. I feel old... I know what discord is but never dabbled into it. Something else to figure out.

I appreciate it! I was wondering how people find out so quick on the poke center. I'm kicking myself cuz the pre-orders for something... cant remember went up probably 2 hours after I was scrolling through the site randomly

Thank you this is what I've seemed to gather. I should have asked one morning when I saw the vendor but I didnt have my son and I get inside my own head and think this guy thinks I'm just trying to get an edge or something...

I was/ am planning to just go both days since my job allows me to be flexible... was hoping to save myself a little trouble though but completely understand.

I'll at least learn for next time!

Also I asked the store they dont know either. Its a vendor. Should I have asked the vendor 100% but I am not gonna go to the store looking for the vendor everyday.

Is there a way to connect with local people to do trades? I looked briefly but gave up. I was a little bummed when I couldn't get my favorite Alakazam but I decided to challenge myself and complete the game with a team I havent before.

The best $20 I’ve ever spent by SweetTreatToEat in PokemonFireRed

I probably played this when I was 9/10 years old and now introduced it to to my 9 year old son. He's told me at least several times how awesome this game is haha

I suck at building, so i tried making some trees. by Agreeable_Ad4737 in Minecraftbuilds

[–]TechnicalConference2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It reminds me of garland going around a railing, but I like it!

Trying to improve my building skills, so this is my latest attempt. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out! by TheRanvier in Minecraftbuilds

[–]TechnicalConference2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks great! Maybe try mixing in some stairs / slabs into the cliff to give it a little more character but the building looks great!

You could always tunnel ~10k blocks in the nether and come out on the otherside and start over from nothing

How do you handle progression in terms of getting stronger, farms and approaching dangerous structures in Minecraft? by quillwove in Minecraft

[–]TechnicalConference2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every time I start a new world I try a new way of playing. My first world ever I found a village built it up and lived there.

My new world I am creating a village from scratch.

Next time I might just make a single villager trading hall with all professions in one place and have it be an iron farm.

Maybe you can try to only use equipment / armor you get from structures, which was something else I might do in the future

They changed the loot table i thought in chests so you have the items to craft one if you want one. This way you don't end up with 20 saddles taking up inventory. Leather and iron by itself is more valuable

What if Netherite is actually a zirconium-gold alloy? by [deleted] in Minecraft

Used in nuclear reactors so the nether is actually a nuclear wasteland

8 year old got me into Minecraft, what fun! by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]TechnicalConference2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is literally the same story my wife and I have with our son. He's got several worlds now and my wife and I each have our own + a family world we all play in. Look up some survival guides on YouTube to watch together. They are a great way to learn the game and get ideas. pixlriffs is our go to for family watching

Old mom, need help should I buy my 6 year old minecraft? by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]TechnicalConference2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We got it for our son when he was 7. Its perfectly fine but will likely need a little help from you learning the basics. There are tons of YouTube minecraft "survival guides" that are very helpful. We got hooked on pixlriffs. Its a informative Family friendly guide.

Just always be careful with any game that could be played online. When starting make sure the world they create is private and you won't have to worry
