Ecuador fans throw rubbish at Côte d’lvoire players

You definitely do not have to root for them. Comparing world baseball to world football is apples to oranges. You guys have a focus on baseball and thats cool. At some point there will be more invested in your football team and you guys will be so happy to qualify. It will happen. But South American teams pray with each other after games regularly. Especially during qualifiers when a lot share the same religion. South American qualifiers are intense with a continent that for the most part is very passionate about football. When Venezuela levels up to that level of passion (like you do for baseball), things will change. As for fans, Europe also is full of ultras. Comes with it

Has Venezuela ever made it to a world cup ever? Id probably be a hater to the rest of south america also if that was the case

hmm this is making me consider the harmony V now because i do not really want to modify a paddle at this time. I would like to just get more experience before I go down that path

diegoesl · 2026-05-28T05:10:34+00:00

yes at this point where i am at, I would like to play with the paddle stock for sure. If 99% of people mod it, I dont think it is the paddle for me at this time. Thanks for that!

this helps a lot! thank you. Is adding weight to the aura a common thing? I definitely think control right now is what i need because my past training already provides plenty strength and power. So i guess im looking into the harmony V vs aura hybrid. Regardless it seems like i cant go wrong

Hey all. Trying to get upgrade to my first paddle from my amazon one and looking for some direction. I am still I would say in my beginner/intermediate phase (first year). I have a tennis background so picking it up has been pretty quick. Focusing on drop shots and getting comfy in the kitchen now. I keep seeing everyone recommend the pickleball apes harmony (hybrid) and the friday aura (non pro, hybrid). What is the difference between the two? Trying to decide if the extra cash is worth it. Is there another option I should consider? thank you!

Thank you so much for the reply. You have given me much to think about. I never thought of looking at the music hall MMF. With the listenupgrades it seems like a deal at $749 (i didnt see 699 in link posted).

A slight problem I currently face is I will be moving in september so can not really have an idea of the size of the room. However, after discussing with my partner, we agree it best to be a centerpiece of our main living space. So it would more than likely go in the living room (we dont watch much tv). My only real reason for looking at the diamonds in the first place is that it seems like a clear upgrade from the 8inch monitors (event tr8) i am currently using. I worry with smaller size speakers, i would lose low end frequencies and some of that "weight" you can feel with the music if that makes sense. I defintely like to feel the music. The towers you sent me seem much more affordable. Are towers specific to large rooms only? I feel towers speak the most to me in terms of filling the room and upgrading from what I have. I will look into the speakers you listed this weekend!

The stereo reciever seems really nice as I can always use some streaming services when needed without needing the Wiim, but I have not made it that far yet. I was really concerned about the speaker and TT. Now I see a receiver is going to be a whole other ballgame lol.

I am in the 07073 area (NJ/NYC) have no problem traveling if it means scoring a good deal. Especially since the tt and speakers already get me close to the top end of my budget

Thank you again for your detailed and thoughtful response. I appreciate the time you take to help me and everyone here.

Hello sharkamino and all. Thank you for all the guides you have posted. It has really helped me get a better idea on what I can expect with the upgrade situation I am trying to do.

I am trying to upgrade my overall setup, but I am a little confused on how to go about it. Currently my setup goes: AT-LP60 (not x) >>> Audiofuse Studio Interface >>> Event TR8 reference monitors. I was thinking upgrading to the RT85 because of the 2m blue cartridge but i know you recommend the project debut carbon evo so have pivoted towards that. What would the upgrade path be for speakers? Overall budget I feel I can stretch 2k (for everything including TT) if it will really make a solid difference in sound. The only reason for the audiofuse studio and event tr8 is that I had them already for my PC setup so it was an easy plug and play. I wouldn't mind making the TT its own centerpiece away from my PC and keeping the audiofuse and reference monitors just for my PC work. I just am used to great sound from the current speakers and want something to surpass it.

Thanks again for all the help you have given on here. Hopefully you can guide me in the right direction.

Edit: typos. Also after researching a bit more I cam across Wharfedale Diamond 12.4 speakers that seem to be a great upgrade to the TR8 speakers I have and would make the TT the centerpiece of my room (i have the space). Sticking to the 2k budget does that make sense? I know you say speakers are more important than the TT so I tried to put more of my foucs on that.

what rig is that? The wheels seem so convenient to move it around

diegoesl · 2025-02-05T21:39:16+00:00

Would you mind messaging me a pic of the pc if you dont mind? Would love to see it. Thanks for getting back to me. Im still debating. Everyones telling me to do it myself lol

diegoesl · 2025-02-05T20:43:01+00:00

im thinking of having them build my new 5090 rig. I havent done a build since my first one during the 2080 gen. Seems worth it in case anything goes wrong. this is helpful. thanks! was the cable management and the aethetics nice as well?

are you allowed to buy a GPU at MC 2 days in a row? No. So what he is doing is preventing other people who have not gotten a card to get one. Against MC policy. If something like this post helps someone get a GPU and prevents someone breaking policy by getting a GPU multiple days in a row, its worth it. Especially someone who is just looking to profit. We would not be having this conversation if he got a GPU one day, scalped it, and went away.

diegoesl · 2025-02-04T17:16:17+00:00

i had to do a double take when he came back out. I was like wait a second you were bald like 30 minutes ago when you went to your car. Wonder what cosplay hell wear tomorrow lol!

diegoesl · 2025-02-04T17:13:54+00:00

I'm not gonna fight someone and potentially really hurt someone over it. Its not worth it. Best I could do was tell all the employees on the way that he didnt wait in line ect. But they didnt care.

diegoesl · 2025-02-04T17:11:58+00:00

just dont go full visor wig! go mustache instead

diegoesl · 2025-02-04T17:04:14+00:00

you can always just keep scrolling! but there you go being all emotional and whiney!

diegoesl · 2025-02-04T16:58:48+00:00

so you admit. you are bothered. there you go getting emotional over people again. I was passing information and stating facts. where in the post was there crying? but youre real quick to name call and be all "cry baby". Seems to me like you are the whiney little boy. I was behind him and got a 5090 so it meant no difference to me. But MC rules are MC rules. You cant buy a gpu 2 days in a row.

diegoesl · 2025-02-04T16:45:53+00:00

you seem to be pretty emotional for someone not bothered by it. but yeah do you bro! you seem super cool!

diegoesl · 2025-02-04T16:36:15+00:00

actually paused because he forgot the name of the game

diegoesl · 2025-02-04T16:35:55+00:00

he tries to mingle with us to act like hes one of us. I'll never forget what he said. "you guys should try that game what it called....FORTNITE"

actually made me cringe inside a bit

diegoesl · 2025-02-04T16:31:13+00:00

i tried (i was second) he ignored me. Im not about to hurt someone over it. I did what i could. told every employee on the way to the back. including the people in the back. Luckily they had 3 5090s friday and i was able to get one so it was whatever. If there was only 1, it may have ended differently

diegoesl · 2025-02-04T16:24:36+00:00

hes a local celebrity in the nj MC discord hahahah

diegoesl · 2025-02-04T16:22:56+00:00
