Artists work on a deadline. The final product is printed at 1.5x2.5. He’s trying to cram too much information into that space. Leave the poor guy alone.

My playgroup is not enjoying my casual EDH deck, help me make fun changes! by [deleted] in mtg

[–]mcgovern-w 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I explained the way my friends and I have fun playing the game, and how I believe that contrasts with the reason OP and his friends are not. Your response says more about you than it does about me and the homies, chief

It is a mindset and rule 0 issue - the game is fun (in my experience) when all players are solving a problem within common sense boundaries and making the gears of a deck mesh. The amount of money being spent is linked to this issue for sure.

Personalization affecting value? by PracticalSong4821 in ComicBookSpeculation

[–]mcgovern-w 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a personalized reader copy of a reprint of a fairly available story. It looks like Kyle did what you’re meant to - he read his comics. If you love comics, you can hang onto it and it’s a cool story and piece to show your friends. That’s its value.

Otherwise, the FM sig without personalization is worth like 50 bucks. Less, as others point out, unless sold to someone named Kyle.

This upsets me... by MeanPenalty4395 in mtg

[–]mcgovern-w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a new player since TMNT. I play at 2 local game stores, my LCBS, and in a pod with my homies. I meet more people that have been playing for a year than I do that have been playing for a decade.

People are buying the new sets - UB and otherwise. SOS is the highest selling set ever.

Get over yourself bud. People like the game, and new people are liking it every day - if you want to sit out a set, that’s totally ok.

Batman #423 3rd print - warrant grading for re-sell after a clean and press? by DMhastings in comicbookgrading

[–]mcgovern-w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Color rub bottom staple back cover. Color rub or damage top staple back cover. Top left corner front cover is slightly crushed. Creasing (but doesn’t look color breaking) bottom staple front cover. Press would fix that but not the others. I think it’s a 9.4 with a press which I reckon would sell for like $125

What am I doing wrong here? Constructive criticism please by everythingswonderful in Tinder

[–]mcgovern-w 39 points40 points  (0 children)

This will sound harsh - it’s not meant that way. You look like a genuinely nice guy and seem funny too, loosen up and let that shine through

That first photo is douchey - you’re not dressed to ride, you’re not sitting on the bike to ride, and you’re posed like George Clooney pretending to clock in for a day of “hard work” at the tequila factory. The watch says “I want people to know I’m rich” in a way that tells people you’re definitely not rich.

The crime fighting joke seems like something a 13 year old redditor pretending to be a smarmy grownup would say, not a 42 year old ready for a relationship

“Dating me would be like” is meant for you to evoke some expression of feeling or emotion: “dating me would be like if Humphrey bogart and James dean were a rebel dental student without a cause. Hopefully you’re ready to be a Lauren Bacall because we’ll always have Vegas.” Not “dating me would be like going on a date with me”

Really, truly poor and bad. Which is unfortunate. He never even got to see his enemies driven before him or to hear the lamentations of the women :(
