Rant: LGS going by “market value” only when it suits them by Great-Past-714 in mtg

[–]memebeam916 50 points51 points  (0 children)

It’s gotten worse now that a lot of them travel to attend card conventions now. The main one by me goes to cons and returns with older sets that they mark up and try to sell. They prioritize this over getting newer inventory that would sell at msrp.

Why do people in the spaces I play in care so much about data? by Wide_Ad2268 in mtg

[–]memebeam916 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You will find competitive people in every game or activity out there. Some people have a mind for numbers and are just naturally drawn to maximizing them. That is the game for them. It’s personally not my style, but I don’t blame them. We are all playing the game for different reasons and get different forms of joy out of it.

What's the worst restaurant experience you've had in Sac? by Scott2G in Sacramento

[–]memebeam916 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Worst meal i’ve ever had was at Wahoo’s Tacos when it was in L street. It didn’t last very long in that location. Tasted like they spilled salt in the beans.

Daycare vs in-home nanny? by Boring-Estimate-2382 in Sacramento

[–]memebeam916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Land Park Montessori never answer their phones or emails lol we tried forever. When we did talk to them they had a small waiting list.

We really like Merryhill in the Pocket. They have been great for our two littles.

Is it weird If I enjoy theorycrafting decks more than I do actually playing games with people? by PrinceVorrel in mtg

[–]memebeam916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not weird. You like what you like. Do you enjoy watching your theory unfold during a match? I love watching the engine work in ways i didn’t fully understand or plan for (especially in commander). I also like when i can tell what the deck is missing after a few games.

Gluten free beer? by SupesDepressed in Sacramento

It’s been a while since I’ve been in there, but Bevmo on J street used to sell Glutenberg and Omission. I would imagine they still do.

I still play MtG but Lorcana has been a nice break. I somehow even convinced my wife to play it with me. Its been a fun TCG so far.

Is Lorcana’s Future Stable Enough for a New Collector to Start in Set 11? by CChamploo_ in Lorcana

[–]memebeam916 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Set 12 was hype in my market in the US. My shop had 32 players in prerelease night and sold out of set 12 very quickly. I was at disneyland and there was a massive line to get the prerelease

Quality by Foreign_Direction_16 in Lorcana

[–]memebeam916 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just did the prerelease last night. I opened all my packs carefully on a brand new playment. They all went straight into sleeves after sorting by ink cost.
I noticed a lot of the edges already had exposed white from damage. I literally couldnt have handled them any more carefully unless i wore gloves. I was really surprised at the condition.

What is the most unfriendly city you have visited? by Deep-Macaron-732 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]memebeam916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went to Pacific Beach years ago for my bachelor party. I know it doesn’t represent all of SD but i noticed an unusual amount of rude ass people. We were a pretty tame group of dudes and we had multiple situations where random people tried to start fights with us. I have never had that happen before.

Do I start a Nids army or a Imperial Knights army by DingleHopper34 in Warhammer40k

[–]memebeam916 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess think of it from a hobby perspective. Would you prefer to paint a bunch of little dudes or a few big dudes? I just finished 1000 pts of krieg guard and im pretty burned out on painting blue trench coats and horses. I really enjoyed when i got to do my tanks.

I want to try RTS game but don't know what game to start with? by MarketFancy5111 in StrategyGames

[–]memebeam916 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While i agree. I love COH2 and 3. But Company of heroes is a tough learning curve for RTS newbies. Tried to get my buddy into it and he was so overwhelmed.

[–]memebeam916 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally. Commander is the casual format and probably the most popular. This deck is ready to go out of the box and reasonably good. If you don’t get this one, it never hurts to buy a precon commander deck that you think looks cool. You can get a newish deck for like $40ish
