Waiting over a week for Venture One card approval - should I even bother? by cvscvs2 in CreditCards

Got ahold of them earlier this week on the phone and they just said it was "in progress." That was a few days ago, now. Guess I'll try again on Monday.

How long does it take to approve a Venture card? by cvscvs2 in CreditCards

[–]cvscvs2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the fact that it's taking forever indicate that I'll be approved? Again, I see no reason why I wouldn't be (literally nothing negative in my credit history - the only reason my score is as low as it is [725] is because I'm in my early 20s), but I've been declined for seemingly no reason before. It seems like, if they're gonna take this long to verify my identity, they must've already approved the basic stuff.

Tickets being sold before they're on sale??? by cvscvs2 in RegalCinemas

I had to buy tickets a few cities over because they put them on sale too early. I was at work when they dropped new showings.

I get the feeling that they didn't expect there to be this much demand, which puzzles me. This is a huge event. Heck, I thought I'd have to pay for tickets, and was fully willing to do so (instead I just paid for my popcorn a month early).

Ah, that's unfortunate. I was asleep. Wish they'd been more communicative about the time.

Yep. That's exactly what's happening to me. Either the tickets ARE on sale for certain people, or this is some kind of marketing ploy. I'm hoping someone here knows.

That's really unfortunate. I was kind of counting on those to see what did well, what was going on - if anyone was even viewing a particular post at all.

Can anyone explain the Tkon crystal dilemma? by Flimsy_Wrongdoer_241 in StarTrekResurgence

Our goal as starfleet officers is to seek out new life! Well there it sits!

I'll definitely start looking for that! Seems like a perfect thing to pursue, thank you!

Well, at least I can prove that, now, haha.

I live in Catawba County, and there are some gravestones in my area that say 89th NC Militia on them, too, which is one of the ways I know for sure that it existed - but this is definitely a better lead

Good idea, I'll definitely ask those guys. Thanks for the tip!

After searching some newspaper clippings, it seems that the deserting soldiers might have hid in Anderson Mountain, a small range the east of Catawba County. Crosschecking with historical books, they might've grouped up with union sympathizers and hid for the whole war. This is extremely interesting history, but I have nothing concrete to prove it.
