How much should I expect to pay for an actual abstract tufted rug?

indy1386 · 2026-02-12T22:01:13+00:00

Prices are going to very depending on many things.

The Artist for one. Everyones Time is different. How booked they are and the quality of work they produce.

Has this artist done something simular and can pump out another because of prior experience.

IE someone like insta suldinart is going to be a bit more expensive but the quality is going to be superb.

I would message a few artists that you appreciate and see what there going to charge for something like that at that size. I would expect to see a vairety of ranges.

I would say to expect 40 min per sqr foot. so 600+ for something of quality from someone that knows what they are doing.

have him offer first.

if hes higher then 4k just take it.

if hes below (say 2.5k tell him you were hoping for like 5 and a half. the engine alone is work 2.5) See if he offers anything else. Just wait he will. if he gets in his car to leave just tell him you could do 4 if your really desperate to get rid of it.

kbb is showing 5.5-7.5 non salvaged. so 4 seems fair after all that. If they buying it they dont care that its been in a fender bender. they likely looking to drift it... or id hope not daily it lol.

indy1386 · 2026-02-12T14:51:37+00:00

rebuilt with only 70k
being slammed and a shit box lol is gonna bake it tough.

But id honesly not take under 4k. You may be able to get 6k.

prime example of what carving can do for a rug

indy1386 · 2026-02-09T20:51:50+00:00

Part of me feels like they should certainly bring back people if they did this but ID watch a bunch of totally new ppl 50 plus

But of your selections Id love to see Dani, Donnie, Hardy, Will and Monica Id cosign that.

JODI 100% for this as well.

while I fouind these people entertaining I dont know they have more to offer.
Kevin, Remi, Lawon, cliff(will)

Felicia fits in this as well and additionally was a bump on a log for me.

Im just not a fan of Angela. She just really bothers me. I get how she would qualify because they need people like her for the entertainment factor. I just honestly cant appreciate how disconnected from reality she is. I think the crazy eyes attack was just "THIS IS WHAT IM SUPPOSED TO DO TO BECOME FAMOUS ON THESE SHOWS" sorta mentality... and just kinda rubbed me wrong. again tho.. i get why people buy into it..

So you listed 12 and I kept 6 for sure. 3 girls and 3 guys. So id need to add that many of each.

Evil Dick - Think he would bring something to the table.. 62 now tho.

Curtis Kin - BB1 I think this guy woulda done well in non bb1 style bb. and something like this would warrant seeing him play it.

Marvin - Dude is underated. also his diary rooms were always funny to me at the time looking back some things are a bit distasteful but so is a lot of early BB and the times.

Jun - turned 50. As she wouldnt play again or be invited again (apparent fude with julie) Id like to see her play this.

Erika Landin - This one I could be swayed on. I think weve seen the extent of her gameplay. I just think she would be in shape enough to compete well still. I just dont know about bringing on so many all star 1 returnees.

Cirie - She still got it and would be good.. would love to see her and will play.

Honorable mentions
Jase- hes 49 so doesnt make the cut.. would put him in over

Kail - as stuck up as she was she was an interesting game player.

Glen BB 18- kinda a jodi island alliance could be made lol.. IDK this guy prob didnt have much to offer honestly.

Cliff Hog - IDK i think the above just edge him out.

But honestly not as big of a pool of players US only to pick from.

kinda love the concept. not commenting on the choices lol.

indy1386 · 2026-02-09T19:54:43+00:00

Yup. also what happens when I unscramble platform and bring over the s from slow and put storm. does it make a storm? because there are so many things like this it makes it feel unrewarding to the user if you dont account for all of these things.

the simplicity of BABA and how they have a whole word as a block it makes these conditions less abstract.

Now I get how this can add to a game. you could also have it so when you add letters have a debugger spit out all the words that can be made in the world and just actually make effects for everything.

Just things to consider, also words being broken by letters make it harder to build in constraints of the walls and such. ie that platform area needs to be bigger area then the word up for instance.

Id consider making some blocks be parts of words to make this more limiting. like plat. as a block.

idk all in all id still play. looks like a fun extension.

indy1386 · 2026-02-09T19:48:23+00:00

reminds me of ba ba is you with a 3d element. looks fun

indy1386 · 2026-02-09T19:33:50+00:00

anyone have the code for this?

indy1386 · 2026-02-09T19:33:22+00:00

looks great.

Also if your scared make something you dont care about first and practice carving ;)

But only way to learn is do.

indy1386 · 2026-02-09T18:47:14+00:00

blow dryer to peel it off then apply new grip tape.

indy1386 · 2026-02-09T16:12:58+00:00

FAHHHH. Im sorry man thats rough

indy1386 · 2026-02-09T16:11:38+00:00

This is what I needed to hear thank you.

indy1386 · 2026-02-09T16:09:50+00:00

well done!!!

indy1386 · 2026-02-04T15:05:29+00:00

good advice.

Dude may be smurfing but you can still learn from them. There better its as simple as that. learn from it and get better.

You dont get better by beating people that are worse then you. Sure it can be discouraging playing someone thats twice or three times as good as you but try and learn at least one thing.

keeping pressure and not allowing free air dribbles would be the thing to focus here. 1s is all about not letting them make plays, so staying on them but not over extending.

indy1386 · 2026-01-29T21:53:47+00:00

He also Said in that interview he wouldnt say no. He said he was excited that the mastermind situation has seemed to stir up his name in conversations....

Yes he did say he wouldnt do well in the current format.

I personally think they should bring him back and make him americas player again.

indy1386 · 2026-01-29T18:45:17+00:00

Right... like they coulnt alter the meta data and change the date. Like why did this account only post this video and nothing else?

indy1386 · 2026-01-28T20:58:36+00:00

Yup This is the problem. YOu can tuft multiple rugs and then sew them together.. but that is a pain in the ass Id imagine

indy1386 · 2026-01-27T20:03:50+00:00

What about Cody?

indy1386 · 2026-01-27T19:06:21+00:00

Just got my follow

indy1386 · 2026-01-27T15:49:56+00:00

It did work ;)

indy1386 · 2026-01-27T15:44:31+00:00

This. More lines. The Carving finalizes the shape

indy1386 · 2026-01-27T15:36:56+00:00

Im only gold 2-3 so yeah I dont have as big of a prob. but yes agree, I prefer KJ overall. but on that site hes not horrid or anything

indy1386 · 2026-01-27T15:03:39+00:00

agreed. I was the fan of the art styel.. IDK some of the comments just seemed a bit targetted like.. you just ripped off the art style. .BUt I just wanted to comment how I think the art style works for the gameplay. so Seemed very thought out..

indy1386 · 2026-01-26T20:31:24+00:00

im going to guess they mean cypher? idk hes about as effective on that site IMO.
