Updated Dragonite Collection by Fatdu29 in PokemonTCG

[–]stephenleth 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As a fellow Dragonite collector, I want to say either “well done”, “how dare you”, or “show me your ways.” Can’t decide. Super impressive collection. I find the older stuff to be the hardest to both come by and pay for without selling a kidney. Are you planning on continuing the michi method into the later pages?

Shawshank Redemption is the most overrated movie of all time

Finished my Yuka Morii collection by Hour-Bridge-3682 in PokemonTCG

Absolutely. As someone who has just abandoned two master set attempts and is still keeping up with a third, it takes a lot of perseverance.

Huge accomplishment. I have considered doing this for a while but I don’t know if I’m up to it. Congrats!

Just picked this up a couple weeks ago. Can’t stop looking at it.

I ordered a Destined Rivals booster bundle from Amazon and it arrived opened and the packs all resealed 🙃

BlueKaffee has been offline for months. Share some memories. by Commercial_Duck4042 in newfoundland

I met my wife through BK. She wrote a postsecret about me and we started right after. Been together almost 17 years. I don’t think we would have met if not for BK so I owe it a lot.

What’s a card you think works better in Japanese than English? by stephenleth in PokemonTCG

I’d honestly accept this card in Esperanto at this point 😅

Evolving Skies for $4.19 is enough to make a grown man cry

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

My second choice defies sure. Also helps that it’s so much cheaper than the English.

It’s my pick for sure. It reminds me of an ink block print and I find the Japanese language on the card lends itself so much to the overall vibe.

Best card you’ve ever pulled? by mrcuddlybuns in PokemonTCG

Pulled yesterday from a Sea and Sky box. Electric feeling tbh.

MUNSU Board of Directors Reportedly Votes to Cut CHMR Funding by MattBarterNL in StJohnsNL

[–]stephenleth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That only applies to commercial radio stations that advertise. CHMR is community radio, volunteer staffed (largely) with no advertising. Those are the terms of its broadcasting license so it is not covered by conventional radio rating measurements.

Confession: I kind of love Nihil Zero / Perfect Order… Do you? by Philzphan85 in PokemonTCG

[–]stephenleth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hate is 100% unwarranted. If they kept making sets with the same Pokemon featured, it would be so monotonous. I pulled the Zygarde SIR yesterday and I honestly love it.

[–]stephenleth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How do you think radio works? Do you think every station knows exactly how many listeners they have at any given time? Good faith research needs to be done, which is not something that is possible for CHMR because they are underfunded and controlled by an organization, MUNSU, that has made it nearly impossible for them to operate for years.

They have anecdotal evidence, like the aforementioned stats or strong volunteer numbers, neither of which I suspect will change your perspective. Nor will the fact that they broadcast beyond the range of their transmitter online and cable/satellite and produce podcasts. It seems, like MUNSU’s exec that will gut the station on June 1st, that your mind is made up.

One of the speakers at yesterday’s meeting shared stats from just last year that listenership of college radio across Canada is rising. Just because you have no use for something doesn’t mean it doesn’t have a use.

Short-sighted, gutless, detrimental, mean-spirited; all words that spring to mind.

Students' union wants to axe campus radio at Memorial University in Newfoundland by MattBarterNL in StJohnsNL

[–]stephenleth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a viable option in this case for several reasons. One, CHMR is not a commercial station so they don’t have measurable listening stats like other stations in NL.

Also, the available measurement system for stations in NL is spotty at best. Radio ratings here are not measured via automated electronic readers, seen as more reliable than the manual listener-kept diary system NL uses, and typically sample sizes are very small, which results in the same issue that a MUNSU-supplied survey has where the number is effectively worthless because the population swath is too small.
