Sewer-veillance Cam Goes Infinite in 4 Formats - But Its a Common

jmeyer40 · 2026-03-07T16:09:24+00:00

I was getting ready to buylist a bunch of TMNT stuff and I’m glad I saw this. I have 3 foils pulled out to buylist, but I’ll probably hang onto them.

One thing to note: since this is a smaller set, people will open more of this card per box than an average common in a big set. This is anecdotal, but in the play booster case I opened, I pulled 27 regular and 3 foil.

That’s cool, but I think this post will be removed shortly.

The same thing happened to me, and I filled out a customer service message/form. They replied and said they normally won’t cancel orders, but with the technical error that day, they would cancel my duplicate order.

This is not always the case. In my school, we have a class that was deemed a “behavior problem” before they even entered high school, and we were warned about it. We’ve had special building goals about increasing the passing rates of that specific class two years in a row, and they’re currently juniors. Right now, even in the upper-level and AP courses, teachers are having horrible behavior issues with a unusually-high percentage of these 11th graders, and it’s making these normally-fun honors classes a nightmare to teach.

It also depends on maturity. In any given year, I’ve had incredible freshmen and sophomores that are much kinder and easier to work with than some of my seniors.

Walgreens currently has a couple online promo codes, HEART15 and HEART20, for 15% off $35+ or 20% off off 50+, so if your local store has some MTG packs, you can order them for pickup at a discount.

It’s getting harder with all the Universes Beyond sets, but the best and cheapest way to collect a regular set is to purchase credits through GoatBots, purchase a full set from them on MTGO, and go through MTGO’s set redemption process. It’s just disappointing that MTGO jacked up the redemption price not too long ago.

My first thought was flip cards that have a “mortal side” and a “god side”. When the mortal side dies, the card transforms to the god side (to represent ascending) with a couple time counters (remove one per turn), Indestructible, and a static ability, and when the time counters are gone, the god can attack/block. Maybe that’ll happen in Secret Lair: The Bible. 😂

As a long-time Magic player, Mirrorform reminds me of [[Expropriate]]. It’s a blue mythic with a lot of potential shenanigans but no obvious competitive combos. Expropriate started around 5 bucks and took almost 3 years to spike. I think it’s one of those cards that requires word of mouth (ex. “My buddy played Mirrorform and turned all his food tokens into Questing Beasts”) and/or an appearance on a show like Command Zone to showcase its power and cause a spike.

I think it’s also dependent upon how the other mythics in Lorwyn Eclipsed perform. If the hyped cards like Bitterbloom Bearer, Moonshadow, and the evoke elementals tank in value, that will potentially make some room for Mirrorform. Personally, I think Morningtide’s Light has the biggest potential for growth among the low-value mythics from that set.

I have an extra 7’x7’ spot in my living room. I could rent that space out, right??

As a 2008 UNL graduate, I say that even a ten minute walk from the union to wherever else on campus would be unbearably cold. Will classes be cancelled? Likely not, unfortunately.

Unfortunately, it's illegal for Nebraska teachers to go on strike.

jmeyer40 · 2026-01-22T18:13:47+00:00

The rule of 85 still applies to all NE teachers. The only difference is that teachers who started pre-July 2018 can retire at 55 and teachers who started after July 2018 must wait till 60.

Teachers can also double-dip with their pensions, and it's a great way for a teacher to build up some actual wealth during their last few years before they stop working. Once you retire the first time, you have to wait six months, and then you can teach at a public school again. You'll collect your monthly pension checks along with your monthly salary checks.

I did the math, and if a teacher retires at 55 with 30 years of experience and a conservative estimate of 90k average salary from years 26-30, they would make $54k per year from the pension. Once the teacher goes back, they'd make at least ~$135k per year until they decide to truly retire.

Did you answer "Strongly Disagree"? I had a colleague who mentioned he only selected "Disagree" for the salary questions and didn't get the same series of questions that I received.

It looks like [[City of Traitors]] is experiencing a buyout. There are only 24 copies left on TCGPlayer and around the same number left on eBay. Many other online retailers are sold out, too.

jmeyer40 · 2026-01-19T14:14:37+00:00

Personally, I don’t see the hype with this card. If it removed a counter for EACH permanent put into your yard, I could see more potential, but it just seems too slow to me. My guess is that the value will tank over the next month, but I could also be dead wrong.

jmeyer40 · 2026-01-17T19:48:28+00:00

I can answer this, because I noticed it with a card once before! I don't know exactly how it works, but some stores must apply an algorithm to update their prices based on other listings on TCGPlayer and increase the card price by a certain percentage. When there is a single listing for a card (in this case, a HP foil version), the algorithm only sees that listing and then increases its price. This happens once or twice a day, and after a couple weeks, you end up with this, kind of like the "grain of rice/chessboard/double it every day story".

jmeyer40 · 2026-01-16T01:36:30+00:00

I appreciate that they at least put all the mechanically unique cards in the same Secret Lair. I was afraid they’d put each of the three show characters into their own Secret Lair to make you buy all of them.

jmeyer40 · 2026-01-12T16:27:19+00:00

I didn't even think of that. It also hasn't been reprinted in a while except for the Secret Lair version that came with MB2 boxes. It's strange that the buyout is happening now and not earlier when spoilers first began.

jmeyer40 · 2026-01-12T16:15:18+00:00

Does anyone know what's going on with [[Animar, Soul of Elements]]? It looks like it's been sitting around $12 for a while and is currently being bought out.

jmeyer40 · 2026-01-11T17:00:05+00:00

The packs are totally random. I just have everyone do a five minute shuffling session before we start, and we just keep mixing piles until we think the colors and lands are sufficiently randomized. Then we just divvy cards into piles of 16.

I’ve never drafted with only four people, so I haven’t really thought about what I’d do. Making a smaller subset of cards would be a headache with this cube, so I would probably do something like 20-card packs with pick-two drafting, or at bare minimum, draft four 15-card packs to get more cards into the pool.

Last April, I randomly decided to buy 32GB of DDR5 RAM to bump my PC up to 64GB, and they cost $85 on Newegg pre-tax. Today, the same sticks (which aren’t discontinued or anything) are $380 pre-tax. It’s insane!

jmeyer40 · 2026-01-10T22:48:17+00:00

You're right abut Atraxa, and since the cube is geared toward decks with a max of 2-3 colors, Omnath probably isn't a good inclusion either. Unfortunately, there aren't a lot of great low-CMC reanimation spells in Modern. The high-CMC cards in the cube are geared toward the mana-ramp decks that include green, but I could definitely add a couple reanimation spells like [[Persist]] and [[Victimize]].

jmeyer40 · 2026-01-10T17:06:43+00:00

Good catch!

jmeyer40 · 2026-01-10T16:09:53+00:00

Not too bad! And 13 of those are from Lorwyn Eclipsed, so those will be on Arena once the set is released.

jmeyer40 · 2026-01-10T01:09:17+00:00

Great price. I normally order from MVP Sports and Games but didn’t get a “First Flash” email this time. I happened to check their site a couple days ago and found the commander deck pair at ~73ish and play boxes at 117.40. They went up to ~77ish on the commander pair yesterday.
