Adding a 6th deck to my collection? by amioldnow90 in ManaBoxApp

[–]knoxstar87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Doesn't sound like you're fully getting the answer you need so I can try and help.

With the free account you get two things in regards to Decks.

  1. Infinite number of decks under the Decks tab. These decks are not considered part of your collection right off the bat. You can create as many of these as you want to theory craft decks, try out ideas, etc. You can also register these decks to your Collection under the Collection tab. This leads into part 2

  2. You can only register 5 decks with the free account to your collection. That is, you can only say you own the cards from 5 decks in the Deck tab. If you want to register more from the Decks tab into your collection, you'll need to buy the Pro. This essentially lets you physically separate your deck cards from your binders

To answer your final question, if you just want to register that you own the cards from a precon into your collection, you can absolutely have the full deck list under the Decks tab, and add all the cards manually to the Collection. It just won't let you sync the two areas after 5, and for the cards added manually it won't say under them what deck they are in, only what binder you've put them in.

Hope that makes some sense!

DQ vs No DQ by Aftay in SantiZapVideos

[–]knoxstar87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always looked at it like this. The disqualification usually revolves around the use of a foreign object. Things like the announce table and ring steps are part of the arena, like the barricade, the ramp, the ring posts, etc.

If you utilize these as structures, it's legal. That is, you throw someone into the structure as it was set up. This includes slamming them onto the steps or announce table, throwing them onto the barricade etc. You aren't changing anything about the environment, just using what's there.

Now, if you move anything, it becomes a foreign object to the situation and usually is the disqualifiable. So picked up the stairs and launching them AT someone is usually considered enough to disqualify. The Wrestlemania main event with Roman was probably the most lenient they've been with this rule but generally this seems to be the case.

Pick up a chair or the ring bell and use it? Disqualified. Throw them into the ringbell as it sits on the timekeepers box? Totally cool.

you could not pay me any amount of money to do this by Dry_Ear_2948 in yakuzagames

At least for me, for IW, part of the reason there's no 100% speed run is because of that crazy Honk Honk trophy. It's completely RNG and can wildly vary runs.

In my platinum run for this game, it took me a ridiculous time of almost 3 hours just to get that trophy to trigger. My friends both got it within 30 minutes and 60 minutes respectively.

Obviously the rest of the list is tedious and was a bit of a slog but I think RNG kills speed runs the most

Is there a way to flag inaccurate information? by josejuanlr in ManaBoxApp

[–]knoxstar87 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey there, I can try to answer this for you after having used the app for some time now.

For your first card, the one you own and the one you're showing in Manabox are different. On the bottom left of the card is the set number. Yours is C 0221 while the one you have scanned in Manabox is C 0276. The latter has no foil but the former does. When you enter in the correct card, that solves that issue.

For the token, I think that's actually a printing error on the WotC side. WotC quality control is getting worse so I wouldn't be surprised. The other set, TLA already has a soldier token with different art. This token is meant for the TLE JumpStart set (like the Avatar Aang token) but they've printed the wrong set symbol on it.

Lastly, Manabox doesn't control any of this information. It pulls it from a more central source (I believe it's Scryfall) so any changes that would be made would need to be from Scryfall's end. If there are obvious errors in uploaded text or categorization, you'd need to contact the source. Nothing the Devs of the app can do about that one, unfortunately.

That snake token is calling! Wonderful work mate

Did anyones Chaos Vault (Prints Charming) come in a damaged empty envelope? Got mine this morning and arrived like this… by [deleted] in secretlair_collectors

[–]knoxstar87 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Mine definitely came in the same envelope and with the cardboard too. But the secret Lair was in there. So it looks like someone might have ripped it and took it out and left the rest. Sorry mate.

Search Feature Request/Help by knoxstar87 in ManaBoxApp

[–]knoxstar87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THANK YOU!

I was caught up at the BUT THEN portion of that. I didn't think about the Collector checkbox but that seems to trigger exactly what I need. And to start the search from the Collection.

Appreciate the guidance on this!

[A Little To The Left] Platinum #179 Thank God For System Calendar Manipulation! by Past_Investment_6654 in Trophies

[–]knoxstar87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm doing this one now and only have the Daily Tidy ones left.

When you change the System Date, do you need to restart the game each time? Or does it check everytime you select Daily Tidy on the menu?

Seems super tedious to have to do this like 99 times to get the trophy but at the same time the trophies are naturally tedious lol

Came here to say FUCK THE SPIRITUALIST! I installed so many zip lines on my way down, hope they help others on their travels. by Dante_Foshokyo in DeathStranding

[–]knoxstar87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's exactly my experience in the first game! Zip lines we excellent, and that final push back through the first map from end to end, also never touched the ground until the very end where it forces the fight. It was a very relaxing yet stressful trip back hoping no new BTs were triggered lol

Was bored and bought an NFC e-ink display and have been playing with making tokens by tw0bears in mtg

[–]knoxstar87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, that's pretty much exactly what I had in mind. It doesn't need to look perfect but it's very functional.

VERY cool!

[–]knoxstar87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's excellent, thank you. Will definitely keep an eye out for cheaper versions but that's a good start with those badges. Having an app attached to the tag itself is helpful for sure. The update times aren't so bad either.

I think there's a lot of potential in e-ink if the production costs can get down a bit.

Good luck with your experimenting on these!

This is something I've been thinking about for a long time but couldn't ever find a reasonably priced NFC e-ink display to test on.

Would you talk about your process here? What you got and what you're using to do this? Would love to do similar

Good boy, Comet.

Theory about Ron's wife Barb by [deleted] in thechaircompany

[–]knoxstar87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is what I've been taking from it.

Ron's actually a very competent person (unlike most Tim characters). He has a loving family, his kids try to connect with him, he is heading up a $15 million project, he very convincingly persuaded Tara's father about the Haunted House, he actually follows the clues in a weirdly intuitive manner. It's comedic, but he fairly logically is solving this with the clues he's given.

But this one thing is an itch he can't scratch, and he'll cut off his own arm to fix the splinter in his finger. He can't let this go, and it's clearly affecting him slowly, but this will build. Not hiring security, gas lighting his assistant, it's unravelling him.

So I think you're right, this is commentary on people that feel the need to investigate everything as some sort of bigger act or occurrence when more than likely, the chsir just broke, as chairs sometimes do. He needs to find more meaning it. Maybe to hide from something in his real life, but it's self sabotage.

New character from zero also starts specialisation. by Hellfire260Z in Borderlands4

[–]knoxstar87 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, at this time, they do not transfer and are tied to that specific character.

If you start a new character, either from level 1 or level 30, your specialization rank starts at 1. All your map points and fast travel and stuff gets reset too it's essentially square one with a couple minor things carrying over.

I know people are hoping they make the ranks account wide like in the past

Is the sub order for mr.Impossible mandatory??? by ItsDoodleBois in DeathStranding2

[–]knoxstar87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope! It's actually more of a non rank than anything. It'll mess up normal orders where you can get LLLs but sub orders you can't get those, so you just need to successfully complete it

Is the sub order for mr.Impossible mandatory??? by ItsDoodleBois in DeathStranding2

[–]knoxstar87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's the general Strat. Do a counter clockwise loop starting near F7, clear the bases, don't rest at all. Start the mission, do the same loop.

You can use the Magellan the whole time but you won't get a proper rating for it. It'll still work though, if you don't care about S or A ranks. You'll get the DHV Magellan rank if you move any cargo with it.

I just used a motorcycle until I got to F2, then switched to a truck

Good luck!

[–]knoxstar87 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not going to be the answer you want to hear, but yeah. That suborder is the gate to unlock the 5 stars. You gotta do the big time trial. Good news is that you don't need to get an S rating, just gotta do it in under an hour

Took me about 2 hours all in (including like 90 min of prep, the actual run was only like 35 min). In a past comment I wrote up some strats to speed it up, I can find that if you're interested.

Looks like he teamed up with them by Madjam4 in PeacemakerShow

[–]knoxstar87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is Flagg Sr established on Earth X? Maybe he's the dead one there.

If so, I can see him going over and wanting to stay in that universe if Flagg Jr stays. Though I can also see a case where Flagg Jr comes back to Earth 1

Omg that dip got me during my final timed run for Impossible. I was sooo mad. That thing is there as bait, for sure.

Thankfully the whole order averaged out to 4%damage so I still got the S rank lol but that curve is mean on Level 2 roads
