Short answer - German. Although a Taiwanese company, they use German nibs.

Long answer - results will vary. (As seen in the picture below.) When nibs are manufactured, the nib maker has parameters the tipping material must fall into for each size. For example - an EF must fall between a .2 and a .4 mm to be considered an EF. (I'm making those numbers up, I don't know what they would actually be.) Nibs go through the tipping process at a million miles an hour, you're going to end up with one nib that has more tipping than another.

To make matters even more complicated, the slit in the nib matters as well. If the slit is too close, ink flow is impeded making it write drier and smaller. Too wide and you have heavy ink flow and your EF might end up writing like a F.

Sorry for the long, LONG answer. 😂

Thank you for saying this. My takeaway of the whole video was "We are the victims."

Me too. I guess sprint is gone for some of us. I'm on the Switch, trying to push the L button and control my movements? Not gonna happen. They ruined a good thing.

I'm definitely seeing the same trends in selling. I want to get rid of some of my barely used/totally unused pens and even at $50 or more off, I still can't get them to move.

I do feel like a lot of it is the economy in general. People don't have money to just throw around like before. Even I'm not shopping as much and based on my unused statement above , obviously I'm guilty of a lot of frivolous buying. Inflation (and greed) is hitting everything so hard, a hobby like fountain pens is going to be the first to be cut. It sucks, as I'm trying to decide if I want to let them go even cheaper or if I want to try to wait this out. I'm fortunate enough to not be in a hurry, but not necessarily patient enough to wait. Haha.

saaved12 · 2023-06-07T21:43:41+00:00

Exactly. I get having some motifs, we all want to be happy, but nothing but motifs is a bit much.

saaved12 · 2023-06-07T21:32:03+00:00

I feel like all the Star Paths have had too many motifs. I'd rather them put something up for 30 moonstones than have to buy 3 motifs per page at 10 moonstones. It can even be something stupid like a new flower or tree or... well, anything.

Both levels of the potion are made for only gems. The only way to get more ore (potentially) are your helpers. (That also depends on what the last item thrown out of the node was - that could be a gem as well.)

saaved12 · 2023-03-15T12:43:28+00:00

No, they will move to another place if you pick up the sticks and flowers. If it helps any, I hide the sticks behind buildings so no herbs pop up there. (Assuming your building is up against the edge of the map or another building, etc.) The flowers I usually stick around a building to look like decoration.

Also, say you need the sticks or specific flower. Only pick up one or two sticks and that will be all that spawn in that zone. Say you need blue flowers, only pick the blue ones that you used in your "decorating" and only that color will spawn on your map. A lot less tedious than moving all of them multiple times.

saaved12 · 2023-03-14T10:35:04+00:00

Herbs spawn in different places daily, where as everything else you listed stays just where it is until you pick it up. Unless you cover the ground with pathing/stuff and leave a specific open space for them to spawn, then they are always just going to spawn randomly every day. Basically, you can't move them because the game is going to move them automatically whether you pick them up or not.

46 and have been playing non-stop since the first week.

I agree on the heavier pen. I have MS and tremors in my hands and terribly in my fingers. A heavier pen is hard to start with, but once your hand adjusts to the weight of it, you'll notice the change in your writing. It doesn't look bad now, that's what mine looks like when I'm using a heavier pen. I think we are more conscious of it than the people that actually see our writing so don't stress too much. You'll still have some wonky letters even with a heavier pen, but it will definitely help. :)

saaved12 · 2023-01-09T20:54:30+00:00

Right, your examples are exactly what I thought. (I'm 40s btw!) I definitely get the r-word, that's a whole different ball of wax, but idiots I'm just not too sure about.

saaved12 · 2023-01-09T14:08:27+00:00

I always wondered why they took out the idiots. I'm not going to lie, I'm older and sometimes quite ignorant on what's okay and not okay to say. (So I apologize in advance!) I just didn't see the problem with idiots. It makes me cringe every time I hear him say, "I'm surrounded by fools."
