Ah man, that's horrible. My mom just beat cancer, so don't worry, these things can definitely be fought against! I've been out with an illness since May 2005, so I can definitely relate to your desire to get back. Good luck man!

You have to wonder how they chose the Pokemon. I mean, Milotic and Raichu? There doesn't seem to be a theme XD That's okay, Nidoking is there. Nidoking makes it all okay *hugs him* *becomes poisoned* X___X Who wants to bet that they'll be sold in packs of 50 again *sighs* That would make...

Dude, they can't do all this special stuff like a different colour and special embroidering for each person, that would drive up the costs, which they would then just pass on to you, not to mention the time it would cost. It's not like a store where you can just walk in and buy whatever colour...

So what are we doing for shuffling and drawing now? Oak's Research, Admin and Copycat are all gone. Any ideas? Is it just gonna be a lot of Holon Scientist, Mary's Request and TV Reporter?

This explains why there is still no Magneton EX or Alakazam EX. Haxxorz!! ;_;

This is true. I WAS a Professor but decided not to renew my membership. I judged most of the major events in Houston from the Sandstorm to FR/LG days and could still do it. I get what you're saying Jimmy but just because a person is not a professor doesn't mean that they cannot be a competent...

You can't really compare the two though. People that compete in the Olympics have sponsors, they do it for their lives, it's a big thing, like a job. It's not the same as a "Kiddy TCG" which is how the world sees it. Let's hold it on the moon, that way 100% of the people can be equally...

Johnny/Spike for me really, although I do just like to kick back at league and play the weirdest crap you've ever seen for fun XD

UltraPro - They have never lasted more than a year for me. I do use cards about 2 or 3 times a week though, maybe more than most. Dragonshield - Shuffle like a breeze and last long, but expensive and are slightly see-through. MaxProtection - Last almost as long as Dragonshield in my...

*points to the topic title* I believe he means "selling"

If you pay money as an entrance fee then the prize structure should be announced in full. If you pay money in the hopes that you'll get something good then hasn't it become like gambling? Nice image for the Pokemon brand... Besides, Lia has no reason to trust that the secret is something...

Guys he said he's taking a "small break", not quitting for life. Don't get all weepy about it, everyone needs a break sometime, especially those of us that have been in it since the beginning.

Never worked on Holo's that I know of. Also, since when have holos been faked convincingly. I've personally had this happen. Open 2 packs and got the same thing, Wailord EX, and one had darker colouring. I wouldn't worry about it, it's probably legit.

Sheesh, I get sick for a year and am out and all of Houston TCG starts to crumble. Had no idea I was this important to everything...

Unless the Medicham are in the prizes, or other necessary cards. Or they get bad draws. No energy. No flips. Things can go wrong. I know what you're saying, but there isn't such a thing as an auto-loss when chance is involved.

You should try playing something weird, something unexpected. How about a Speed Electabuzz deck? Never heard of it? Good, no one else has either. Right now I see people whining about how they can't get their archetype deck to work against "Hard Counters". Don't play an archetype deck then...

Do many impressive card tricks and flips for your opponent before the match. They will ignore it, meaning they are stupid and you can get away with actually using the card tricks to cheat, or they will ask a judge to shuffle your deck and if you loose you can blame it on the judge's bad...

I liked Ash better, even though I don't actually like his voice much. The lesser of two evils I think, his voice annoyed me to no end before. Same with May. Brock is horrible, he sounds like he just finished smoking and getting high, especially when he freaks out about Jenny. Jesse is an...

That's a good point. You have to wonder what's next: dress codes, language and things like that. But the cheating is probably the biggest reason, I still don't see the questionable content on the sleeves as an issue, I would bet that 99% of it would be in the 15+ age group anyway.

A step in the right direction for sure. Here's hoping that the new Ultra-Pro sleeves (assuming the rumors are true) come in packs of 60 this time. Sheesh XD Maybe even 61 or so, in case one breaks? You'd have thought that they would have done it that way in the beginning for the official...
