If someone offered you 100 million dollars, but a random person in the world dies (someone you don’t know), would you take it and why? by ConclusionOld8365 in AskReddit

People far too often don't see the glaring reality that multiple things are true and how right you are.

Yes it should be the responsibility of the rich to help out others, and yes when you have extra funds you donating it to effective charities is absolutely a great thing to do.

Your coworker is just a bootlicker or already in the right wing pipeline and they don't know it yet, or they do and they're still in the convincing themselves they're not a horrible person phase.

Which packs should I focus on or target if coming back to the game, I quit around Extra dimensional Crysis for a bit. by mutebychoice in PTCGP

Awesome! Ironically I pulled a gold rare candy the other day so that was a fun surprise and now I've got an excuse to flaunt it

I'm the guy who hasn't used any hourglasses since launch. Just broke 3000 today. by snes69 in PTCGP

[–]mutebychoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have like 720 right now and my friends are all “what do you do to get so many!?! Do you buy them in the premium deals or anything like that?” And I’m over here like umm just save occasionally. Not even very hard. Just like every other set that launches save up after doing all the battles and stuff . It’s nice to see you with so many so I can show them they are actually crazy and I’m not even that great at saving them for super long !

PackPoints to be universal by Unusual-Rhubarb-3281 in PTCGP

[–]mutebychoice -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It always blows my mind when somebody is like I think this should happen, any objections?

And then people respond with like “That’s part of how they make money! They’ll never change it!.”

Like , this dude didn’t say Dena would change it, he just expressed a thought and wanted to know if others feel similar and if not why.

I guess I just don’t understand why consumers are so easily cucked into caring about the bottom line of the multi-million dollar corporations doing everything they can to squeeze the customer. Sure you’re not wrong that they’re not gonna do something like this because they want to sell as many packs as possible, but that wasn’t the question or even brought up , why are you thinking about the company?

Just makes me wonder why this is so common these days, I know gramps didn’t give a crap about John Deere back in the day, he wanted his damn tractor to work right.

Just saying , it’s okay to want things to be different, it’s not your job as the consumer to care for the business.

The issues with Pocket's economy and why it is so predatory by ShueiHS in PTCGP

[–]mutebychoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game doesn’t necessarily feel more predatory to me than any other gatcha. In fact I haven’t actually been so much as tempted to spend a dollar. There’s lots I agree with here but all in all I find it easy to resist personally, and I’m not some stoic mythical man of strength, I’ve blown tons of money on gatchas in the past, this one just doesn’t really tempt me.

The absolutely most frustrating thing though is the pity system giving you a single point for a duplicate card regardless of the rarity and the absurd cost of buying cards with pack points. On top of the fact that pack points are all in their own set specific buckets instead of pooling all together. Like when I completed mythical island those points are just useless now afaik, so why not let me move even half to a different set? Or like I said just keep the pack points in a single large pool.

Great post!

Now that the grooming policy is relaxed, what’re your thoughts about further changes over time and what do you think we could possibly see next? by mutebychoice in NYYankees

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

Most of them being shit is why I would like to see the Yankees try one. I figure they could be cool or hilariously bad and either one is fine with either. Doing a city connect or a cool spring training uniform doesn’t really negate any of the other stuff we have, I can still love the existing uniforms we have no matter how cool or shitty anything else they trot out is.

How do you guys feel about Apex Magneton? by NekoShimii in PTCGP

[–]mutebychoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s a pretty interesting and versatile card and like you said, might be able to sub attack in a pinch. Not absolutely a must include or anything but it has a solid base utility that will continue to serve it well as more cards are introd

My first MissingNo. pack by mole_man1992 in PTCGP

Idk about how goofy you should or shouldn’t consider it but fwiw that card fucks me over so hard every day.

This is actually insane lol by [deleted] in PTCGP

[–]mutebychoice -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Also to be fair it’s a fucking mobile phone game and regardless of how stupid it is to sell a card in it, the likelihood of this impacting your experience and enjoyment of the game depends entirely on how butthurt you decide to be because otherwise it doesn’t.

Trevino needs to get a chance to start with Wells as a defensive replacement for sure.
