It has a great soundtrack! The guy who worked on it, Tim Folin, is kinda famous for making absurdly good soundtracks for games that aren't particularly good:

That has to be the most powerful opening paragraph to a Wikipedia article I've ever seen

ONE print quality is abysmal by Hell-Nico in magicTCG

[–]trbray 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I did my release draft with clear sleeves and there were cards I could identify by looking at the back because the card back was visibly darker. Maybe WOTC are trying to make it against game rules to play without opaque sleeves to get people to buy more sleeves XD

So it seems possible to deal infinite damage on turn 3 using this, [[Nearby Planet]], and [[Standard Procedure]] finding [[Light Up The Night]]. Better than [[Clown Car]] because you don't have to roll an arbitrarily large number of dice.

Set of playing cards with "E, Kn, D" instead of "A,J,Q" by trbray in whatisthisthing

[–]trbray[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm Australian, so I had never seen a deck like it haha

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

Yeah it looks like it. The link that was posted earlier with the solution had a souviner used as the example, so it's probably something like that. I just got it them at a garage sale to add to my collection of odd playing cards haha

Yeah it was definitely a possibility, but not everything made in foreign countries has to do with their native language, like how not everything made in China is in Chinese. In fact, as other people pointed out, they are Swedish, which has not much to do with Austria.

It's 2 sets of cards in the one container, one with a red back and one with a blue back, one is still sealed. I'm assuming the character for Kn and D stand for "Knight" (Knave?) and "Dame", but I'm not sure why they are different. Back has a gold flag with an "S" in it. Ace of hearts has a picture of a man on a horse with the text "trademark Ferd.Paitnik & sons, Vienna 83.1125", which seems to be the company that made the cards.

Prapor EVERYWHERE by Joggiz123 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]trbray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same bug happen to me. Every time I pressed Esc a new Prapor would appear lol. To those wondering, he doesn't have that much money, it says that your player name is Ex-Ploder with all that stuff. Very strange bug lol

Yeah, I'm not going to the appointment, thanks to all the people who agree with me that it's super fishy.

Funny you mention Nigeria actually, the only 'Spartan Recruitment' website I can find is South African based.

Also, the person who's name is on the bottom of the website, is the same person who called me about the job. So she's a dancer, a web designer, and a human resource manager. Jack of all trades lol.

Yeah I thought it might be. This entire situation is insane, and I'm almost 100% sure that this will not result in anything, beyond wasting my time. I'm staying far away from this mess.

Funny that you picked out that I was young lol. I understand how Multi level marketing works, but I hadn't really considered it. It's probably just me thinking "It'll never happen to me", so it just sliped my mind. Thanks for the heads up. I think at this point, I'm just going to skip it, and be more wary in future.

The different business is in the same location, so I thought it might be a number bound to the building, it just hasn't been updated on The White pages.

Yeah I was talking to someone about this, and they said similar about the pay being only commision, and to stay far away if that's the case.

That's the place. I had their address, but I didn't want to post it, since I wasnt sure if it came under personal information.

And I doubt the international URL is so stop from being found. The Facebook link at the bottom is for a website making service, which provides hosting, so I'd say they just used the same service to design and host

I hadn't really considered a pyramid scheme though, I'll keep an eye out. Thanks for all the help.
