    Lack of New Info released

    As 'mom stated, the talk of Tropical Beach as an insert began as a wouldn't-it-be-cool statement by a player of the game, not someone who works for TPCi or in the know about card printing and whatnot. GBA's statements on the matter, however, imply that people in the company are considering the...

    Emerging Powers Prerelease Stories

    I went to the afternoon prerelease at Worlds, so it was already a memorable experience :biggrin:. The final TCG matches were going on at the same time though, so about half the people in my flight dropped by round 2 (out of 4). The projector screens were big enough that I could see the Top 2...

    Searching a Deck of Zero Cards

    An intersection of a couple of Trainer card rules came up in discussion and I couldn't find an answer in the compendium (Apologies if I overlooked something), so here's the question: Could I play a Trainer/Supporter card that searches for a specific card in my deck if I have no cards left in...

    This is gonna inhale profusely. (Hurricane Irene)

    CNN's reporting two deaths. One person was hit by a falling tree limb while feeding livestock this morning, and yesterday someone had a heart attack while boarding up their home.

    Earthquake!

    The USGS page for the earthquake (http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Quakes/se082311a.php#summary) says that earthquakes >4.0 east of the Rockies are felt much farther away. This has something to do with the composition of the ground itself. On the West Coast the ground isn't...

    Q's about cincinno

    I like Reshiram and Zekrom. Not really much on the way of counters, except Zekrom vs Yanmega, but they're perfect benchwarmers. High HP and Outrage can deter sniping. They both use double colorless to attack (or retreat w/o switch), and as basics don't require an extra turn or two to evolve. For...

    My Runner's Tournament Report

    John, as one of those line-waiters, thank you for your uplifting comments on Sunday. The greatest highlight of that morning (besides the triumphal entry into the store) was your banter.

    League oddities on Pokemon.com

    Have you tried hovering your mouse over the day that the league usually meets? If it's in between seasons the days won't be highlighted, but if there's still a scheduled play time the hours will appear. Oshawott season is the last of the 2010-2011 cycle and the first season of 2011-2012 doesn't...

    Who do you want to meet?

    I'd like to meet Biggie and Exobyte. I grew up (in San Diego) on Round Table pizza, and Exobyte's Round Table post from a couple months ago made me quite homesick.

    Donphan Prime counters

    If you're running T-Tar Prime, I'd just use that as a Donphan counter. Megaton Tail with 2 Special Darks is a OHKO. There's Plus Power or Black Belt if you can't get the specials in time.

    First Time Phone Buyer

    I'm paying $70 + tax for unlimited calling and texting plus 200MB of high-speed internet (above 200MB it becomes slower) through T-Mobile. If you're dealing with video, you'd want more of the high-speed stuff. First month of my plan, I used up the 200MB in about 2 weeks. Each tier seems about...

    Nicked Sleeves: Marked?

    (Sorry if in the wrong forum) I bought a pack of Dragon Shield sleeves yesterday so I'd have fresh sleeves before Worlds. After re-sleeving my deck today I noticed nicks of varying sizes on the bottom of virtually every sleeve. Are these sleeves too marked for Worlds?

    Looking for a shop in Los Angeles with REAL cards for BW Trainer Kit

    For the major retailers I would try Target, since they've been pretty up-to-date with releases. I haven't had much luck finding things at Wal-Mart or Toys R Us. To the east there's Game Empire in Pasadena (On Colorado, near Sierra Madre), and in the west there's Toy Mandala in the Westside...

    Non-Professor wins Professor Cup!

    Seeing as he mentioned Kent State in his article, I think it would be reasonable for them to be made aware of the situation too. The university I attend hands out harsh repercussions to students who have broken the law, from underage drinking to copyright violations, separate from any police...

    Get chocolate milk? Or don't milk it up..

    If you haven't had nightmares from eating at 1am before, you probably won't have nightmares from this. I would totally have chocolate milk at 1am, or better yet, regular milk that becomes chocolate milk in a bowl of cocoa pebbles

    Music

    I've faced people on tables barely able to fit 3 rows of prizes, ears turned as humanly possible towards my opponent, reading their lips through my hawk-like corrected vision with nothing besides the relatively quiet lull of other games going on around me, and I've still missed plenty of Power...

    Illogical Things You Thought As A Kid

    I used to think that all the super smart math geniuses got well-paid jobs as cashiers at Wal-Mart, since they had mastered how to use decimals.

    Player vs. Player Pokémon TCG Online coming this fall!

    Anyone else now have the battle theme from the gameboy tcg game stuck in their heads? I'm hoping the music in this is just as good.
