    I actually like that they're giving a choice between foil or unfoil. Of course, liking that is contingent on how shit they are at making foils now, which is itself a negative thing.

    Not in a standard set, in a special slot in collector's boosters. Just like masterpieces didn't affect their reprints legality last zendikar.

    Because I know when I think "collector" I think "people who want print runs tripled in size."

    I mean if you want to take direction from medieval city rulers you could just murder/exile all the creditors once or twice a generation. Let them charge whatever they want during the good times, chop em up during the lean times. Adds some risk/reward spice!

    Arkk's Weight Lifting / Fitness Thread

    I want to go back to the gym, but since they've reopened they're on limited-capacity, so even if you're paying for gym access you aren't guaranteed to actually get in when you go, and they don't have the infrastructure for scheduling timeslots online.

    Today, day before the house is supposed to go on the market, I head over to Mom's house to hose off the deck/patio. Turn on exterior faucet, pipe in the basement bursts. I swear to god this house is going to kill me before I get it sold.

    It's a starting position, so the paycheck is only ~4700 before taxes/401k/hsa/premium/whatever would come out, so will take about 5 months to cap out a 401k and HSA on that. But yeah, intending on putting in the full 19500/3500. Can swing about 36,000 in "savings/investing" a year once I start...

    So, starting a new job and will have a 401k and an HSA, both of which I haven't had the last six years. Says I can backfill both for 2020 up until April 2021. If I've got enough money from other sources to cover my living expenses for the next year or so, can I just bomb my entire paycheck...

    Because there's more copies of singles in circulation than there are sealed boxes. Lower supply vs apparently sufficient demand from sealed product collectors. I know at least a couple locals who started trying to get a box of every set after they reached mid-level salaries.

    Going from Large-Small-Small to Large-Large-Large for set sizes also introduces more chances to fuck things up, while creeping the average price of standard.

    The real problem with shadowlands is that alliance only has 3 druid races so you can't roll 4 different race, different spec, different covenant druids. Gnome druids pls.

    Galaxy brain on why there's that strange 6 duals number mentioned by Maro in Zendikar: Omnath is 4 colors. So he needs a UR, UG, UW, RG, RW, GW set of duals.

    I am not particularly happy with the Oubliette reprint having functional rules changes. There's a reason they *undid* the Phasing change the last time they implemented it with Oubliette and Tawnos's Coffin.

    I'm still convinced this is some manner of giant scam, but I'm starting to think it's a giant scam that might actually release an end product, which makes it better than many others. I can also respect the idea of getting rich, then making your own MMO so that you can give yourself GM powers...
