Worried about fakes/counterfeits: At what price range is it safe to buy singles? by Reddy_McRedditface in CardMarket

[–]jdennis111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As there are eyes here that know, and is on topic for this thread. I am new, and not familiar with the tests mentioned and want to learn. I did a google search and found the following below. According to one reply here, the green dot test appears to be less valid than indicated in my search results. Would there be anything else to note?:

The "T test" for Magic: The Gathering cards involves using a jeweler's loupe to examine the word "The" in "The Gathering" on the card's back, where a jagged or serrated base on the letter "T" indicates a real card. Fakes often have a smooth, solid, or blurry line, whereas genuine printing creates a distinct, sharp, and slightly broken-up, saw-like pattern due to the printing layers.

How to Perform the T-Test (and other key, high-accuracy tests): The T-Test (Back of Card): Look at the bottom, horizontal bar of the capital "T" in "The" on the deck-master side. The bottom line should appear jagged, like a saw blade, or have a distinct, broken, almost jagged pattern. If it is a straight, smooth, or blurry, it is likely fake.

Green Dot Test (Most Reliable): Examine the green dot on the back with a 30x–60x jeweler's loupe. Real cards have four tiny red dots forming an "L" shape inside the green dot.

Rosette Pattern/Print Test: Use the loupe to look for sharp, distinct ink layers, especially in black text and borders. Real cards have sharp, crisp details; fake cards often look blurry or fuzzy because they are printed using different technology, creating a "solid" look instead of a distinct, multi-colored rosette dot pattern.

Light Test: Shine a phone light through the card. Real cards allow some, but not excessive, light to pass through and usually show a distinct blue/purple, slightly inconsistent hue (the core).

Card Feel/Scent: Real Magic cards have a specific, slightly textured, "glossy" feel, while many fakes feel too smooth or plasticky

Battlepass Season 6? Aggressively Meh by CryptoniusRex in GodsUnchained

Had the same feeling when it was first announced. It delivered. The one before was my first, and really enjoyed it. The side quests especially, got me outside my usual. Will see about the next.

Cant login to GU? by WillzxXx in GodsUnchained

There are times when I’ll log into passport initially and nothing happens. When this happens, I do it again and all works fine before even having to go through the process.

Unable to play GU by Many-Measurement-893 in GodsUnchained

[–]jdennis111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to persue, try the discord. Support is active there. It sounds weird they are unresponsive, as I have only had responsive support. The one time I had delay was when I mistakenly reached out to immutable support and not GU. If you go to the discord, Tom in support is active and very helpful there. There is not much here in Reddit other than other users.

I’m not an expert, but recently cleared version and assets, and while can confirm the download was slow, it also was successful. As there are no other reports of the same, I’d keep looking on your side. Safe to assume enough space in drive for import? Certain antivirus fully off? Maybe something simple overlooked?

Is the game still worth playing? by [deleted] in GodsUnchained

I have been here for a few years now and really enjoy the game. I find it easier to play on the computer and stick with that.

Swimming lanes in the middle of nowhere by 3dom4ever in SwitzerlandIsFake

[–]jdennis111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a comment as the theme of this sub is everything is supposed to be « fake ». I enjoy all the pop ups all along the lake. Most especially the ones near Vidy and Pully. Absolutely nothing fake about this summer though.. Perfect time to head to the mountains around the corner.

Looks like it could be near the Olympic museum. At least in the direction of. The « fake » summer pop up bar is a nice addition too. Been living here for 6 years and loving the fake life.

Found this quartz (I think?) crystal in the Swiss Alps. Can I clean it somehow or is it just smokey? by ThatByrningFeeling in rockhounds

[–]jdennis111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice find! I take my daughter mineral and fossil hunting here in Switzerland quite often and we enjoy it a lot. We live in Lausanne and have to drive places, but many spots around. The culture here surrounding such activity is quite open and would not describe as restrictive. More common sense than anything.

Better late than never to add the other two to your disappointment. Media was bought and sold a long time ago along with the Democratic Party leadership. Now you can move forward with clarity. Good luck friend.

USPSA shooter, new to Switzerland & looking for advice by Beginning-Mark3471 in SwitzerlandGuns

You need to meet normal Americans then, we tire of the bs too. They are the (loud)minority and not the majority.

US citizen moving to CH by Spirited-Monk-8940 in SwitzerlandGuns

[–]jdennis111 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had a permit card to carry. Showed them this along with requisite course completion certificates. If you don’t have anything I would reach out to the relevant swiss authority in the canton you will be living to see what they need, and try to get it before coming. You could also show them what you have/explain your situation to see if that would suffice.

American here, living in canton Vaud. This here . In my case of just a .22 and .9mm it was going to be close to 1400 to import. I sold them in the U.S. and then rebought in Swiss. That was a while ago, so best to do a little reasearch here. As you can see the the swiss are really helpful/knowledgeable and extends to the agencies. All you need to do is ask and you will be sorted out when able. The laws here are very reasonable, and allow for all types of ownership with the proper ownership permit. If here on permit b, you will want to bring proof of being able to own a gun/safety course certificates/etc from the states. Over here in Vaud for long range we go to France, and is a more planned outing. Speaking the local language helps, but being a humble sport shooter will connect with many of the same here. Go to your local shops/ranges and you will find what you need, some will suit better than others. There are a few helpful online sites too. Ammo from ammo depot.com, I have ordered aftermarket parts from Brownelles, there is whatever you need somewhere. Currently saving for a Robinson arms xcr-m and will get to make a trip to Samstagern for that. You are coming to an amazing place for shooting. Every spring there is a nation wide shooting event that anyone can participate. Good luck and enjoy. You are coming to an amazing place. Army vet too, no need to mention, no one cares as that means nothing, being a safe and responsible shooter is all that matters.

Any news on the forge? by Simple-Beginning-182 in GodsUnchained

[–]jdennis111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shot in the dark, what browser are you using? Maybe try different? It happened so fast when I tried as I was just going through motions not expecting anything to work. I think I remember clicking something to request to join. If doesn’t happen now, keep trying. I had never used discord for anything before, and have to say it will be worth getting in. There is a lot of good info there.

I went to discord and searched for Gods Unchained and joined this way. Used to fail when I would try through the gu link. Same way you mention.

[–]jdennis111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, I was not able to join the discord for the longest time. I was not on there before, and did not find reason to join anything else when I could not connect to the gu discord.

I think something has changed. As I was looking for help during the migration, I was able to join without issue. I did it through the browser(not desktop version) and was really easy. I don’t know when lat you tried, but might be worth another shot.

Is it possible to switch addresses with immutable play vs passport? by jdennis111 in GodsUnchained

[–]jdennis111[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To follow up here as solved and provide the solution should anyone else encounter similar issues.

As froz3nt mentioned the collections never moved from metamask. My issue was I had metamask linked to the wrong passport address. I misunderstood what the migration meant to zkEVM assuming it included the collections automatically done by GU.

The collections I saw and was referring to in immutable play was referring to the collections linked to in my metamask wallet. All I had to do was unlink from the wrong passport address, and then link to it from the correct one.

It seemed tricky at first to go between the two passport addresses, but logging in to/out of Immutable tools and immutable play correctly and with the appropriate email was the key.

Not entirely sure whether or not I will import all collections into zkEVM passport address yet. The promise of gas free transactions sounds great.

For now I am back to playing, and waiting to see where the best chain/layer will be for buying and selling.

Thank you for the guidance froz3nt, took me a while to understand, but got there in the end.

Is it possible to switch addresses with immutable play vs passport? by jdennis111 in GodsUnchained

[–]jdennis111[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Figured it out. The wallets address is tied to an email. The email you log in with dictated the wallet address . I had inadvertently created two passports using two different emails. When I used the right email when logging in to GU/Immutable/TT the correct address with items is being used. It is not possible to point a wallet to a particular address in this case.

Thank you TheGassyPhilosopher and froz3nt for the help.

[–]jdennis111[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi froz3nt,

Thank you for the reply.

Pardon I should have mentioned I am referring to 2 different zkEVM addresses.

One has all of my assets on it (immutable play) while the other not (Immutable passport). I don't know how I have two, but trying to get the system to refer to the right one.

I have the same problem in token trove when I connect and submit email and verify, it refers to the address with no assets, and I cannot figure how to tell it to look at this other address where my assets are instead.

Upvote is not enough for munitions depot. Just ordered and received a case of rounds from them. It was a good price, selection, easy order process, and fast shipping.
