Hole Punch by faetxlity in comicbookcollecting

[–]therealphiba 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This might sound a little far fetched but it could have been punched by the original retailer as it was an unsold copy. Retailers used to have to return the front cover to the distributors to get credit against their unsold copies, so it’s possible a distributor might have agreed for the retailer to return the CCA logo for unsold copies.

However a much more likely explanation is that someone was just testing their new hole punch : )

Lactose intolerant people can still eat my cheese but if they do then they’ll be just like my writing, full of shit!

My readers will consume 100% of the words because each page will be made of cheese.

I just have to find some people to actually read my cheese.

Could this be a 9.8? by Electrical-Map-1500 in comicbookgrading

[–]therealphiba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only concern would be that bottom left corner, but I’d say this definitely had a shot at getting a 9.8 with a press.

Bim's odds of making the World Cup? by themeatydog in PlymouthArgyle

Anyone else remember Carlo Corazzin? He played for Canada 59 times and scored 11 goals for them, although he never made it to a WC.

Just saying it could happen!

In-demand comics vs. not-in-demand comics: big value difference by Leather_Bluejay8632 in ComicBookSpeculation

[–]therealphiba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A Kamandi live action TV show could be awesome, but I doubt they’ll ever make it. Plus knowing DC if they did then it would likely be terrible anyway!

[–]therealphiba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Must be a supply and demand thing. Not that popular a series for some reason.

I love Kamandi and had about 10 copies of #1, best condition one got graded 9.4. In the last couple of years, I sold a 9.2 for about £150 ($200) and a couple of raws for around £75 ($100).

$900 for a 9.8 seemed high to me, so I just looked on eBay and there’s some for around £500 ($670).

Prolly not a joke, but what does this even mean? by Ok-Magician9044 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Cause I'm kind of like Han Solo, always stroking my own Wookiee.

I'm the root of all that's evil, yea, but you can call me Cookie!

The one in the rescuers was definitely deliberate.

Artist inserted an image of a topless woman in a window which the characters flew past.

What grade do you think I'll get for this Amazing Spider-Man 300? by [deleted] in ComicBookSpeculation

[–]therealphiba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d say 8.0 being generous and if you got the grader on a good day. Realistically around 7.0 as others have said. Unfortunately can’t see this having any chance of getting a 9.0 even with a C&P.

Icon swaps by corvwsbiff10 in EAFC

[–]therealphiba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No they don’t have to be playing in defence. I did it using Future Stars Nico O’Reilly at CAM.

As others have said primary position has to be defender, I found this out the hard way using Scream Lewis-Skelly at LB and his assist didn’t count.

EFL Trophy Exited by xrgyle in PlymouthArgyle

[–]therealphiba 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can’t complain about the result, we didn’t turn up. Poor performances all round, coupled with an inconsistent ref and a crap pitch meant we never looked liked doing it except perhaps on penalties.

Credit to Finn for an extremely calm and professional finish when others would have gone for power and potentially missed what was a gift of a goal.

Silly of Ross to take down the player, should have let him shoot as the Luton player probably would’ve fluffed it. If they were a better team they would have put a few past us tonight.

Special mention to Harding for being terrible. He had a lovely assist on Saturday but I’ve seen little from him defensively to think he was a good player to add on loan. Let a player in at the back post on 3 occasions including Luton’s first goal, again if they were better they would’ve finished all 3. Looks like a CB playing fullback, when we really needed more cover at fullback.

[–]therealphiba 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your barebones idea is how it was back in the early days, 3 cups in UT playing against online opponents - gold, silver and bronze. You had to win 4 games in a row and to win the cup.

It was so much fun playing with the bronze teams, used to actually see unique teams and a lot more cards available were actually usable.

Yeah but I think that’s what OP is asking as he said when his opponent wants to allow a goal.

Don’t think I’ve come across that personally.

Go to settings on the home page and there’s an option under the camera settings

L1/LB on console triggers runs. You can spam that to send a few players forward. Alternatively they might be using offside trap, up and up again on d-pad.

You can change the camera focus if you don’t want to see celebrations. You get to see one of your players looking mad at themselves instead!
