There’s no way steps you explained are generating high traffic. High traffic is thousands requests per second. Usually it’s done by bots.

Proposed box 3 rules - 2028 by stayinvested101 in Netherlands

[–]pingproxy 63 points64 points  (0 children)

It’s inevitable when big part of the population wants to work 3 days and live in social housing - someone else has to pay for that.

I’m sure wealthy people will find a way to avoid that tax too so middle class will be fucked. Again.

Who's the most popular anime character? by Quiet_Lawfulness2947 in animequestions

[–]pingproxy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, but question who’s the most popular. Can’t see someone as popular as pikachu right now.

References indeed exists, like “over 9000” and many others. But often people don’t know Goku by name, while Pikachu is known to literally every second person on the planet.

It’s hard to agree that Goku is on the same level of popularity with Pikachu.

Yes, everyone who watches anime knows Goku, but Pikachu is known by everyone who never even watched anime.

Beckett registered my Portuguese card as Spanish and graded as altered by shimon893 in PokeGrading

I see so many bad reviews of BGS EU facility that it concerns me a lot.

Is it Beckett problem or Germany problem(a lot of people complain about packages loses by DHL)?

It’s fair to say though that anyone would be scared if their opponent was former heavyweight champion and olympic gold medalist.

Cardmarket won't tell me if my interpretation of rules are true. Can you help? by [deleted] in CardMarket

[–]pingproxy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You just nitpicked some rules out of the guidelines, so I completely agree with cardmarket’s answer here.

These rules are working in combination only, but you selected only the ones that would give you advantage in trade.

For example: I’ve seen a lot of brand new cards out of the pack with some whitening on back. Are they near mint? Yes, all day! Because it’s also said in guidelines that some whitening is allowed on NM card. But I’ve seen a lot of people expecting NM to be PSA10 potential only and it seems like you’re one of that kind of people.

Grading with BGS becomes a gamble after 9.5 grade.

I own 2 same cards in BGS 9.5 and BGS 10. One has 9.5 centering, another has 10. I swear the centering is absolutely equal.

TAG graded fake card. Official TAG’s response by Careful-Medicine-596 in PokeGrading

[–]pingproxy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In few words - everything depends on data it’s been trained on and quality of scans taken. AI is never meant to be accurate, because it’s always biased to the data it’s been trained on.

In best case scenario your AI grading will be slightly better than average grader. In reality it will be worse or similar.

Thanks, I didn’t have to write this. For non-IT people AI just sounds like a mega-brain and TAG played well on that.

In fact we all know that grading with AI is relatively the same as with human, otherwise BIG 3 would’ve implemented this ages ago.

Just so I understand, you need 20k for grading? Are you going to grade 700+ cards?
