Oh my goodness  …how many cards is that

You should totes build a deck or something eventually . Or not  . Anything you fancy? I’ve got a lots of dragons in mine (it’s a blue eyes deck. That’s an understatement).

I don’t want to know 💀  I kept putting off doing it and then the pile just kept growing lol. One booster box of yugioh cards takes me an hour to do. The Pokémon boxes look like a lot but tbh there aren’t very many packs in those boxes. That won’t take as long. It’s the yugioh cards I’m dreading the most. 

I don’t really have a desire to build a deck with the Pokémon cards. Especially since they don’t do any tournaments or have any Pokémon nights anywhere around here

With yugioh, my local card shop does have a yugioh night during the week(I can’t go to it due to my job hours but I’m also looking for a new job so it’s a possibility in the future).I certainly have enough duplicates with the yugioh cards to start a deck. But some of these cards have a textbook length of text on them so figuring out how to play them is another thing.

Thanks to the Kings Court booster box I’ve got a ridiculous amount of Kings,Queens and Jacks knights. For next years Halloween I’m thinking about putting my a bunch of my duplicate cards in with the bags of candy I hand out.

Ehhh I always thought Pokemon was more worth collecting than actually playing the game. Different story with YuGiOh which is literally based off the game.

I'd keep it simple. Even the instruction book is kinda complex and I never fully played by the book. Me and my brothers just went with the most basic of rules (i.e., draw once per turn, max 1 normal summon per turn, no sudden death when you're out of cards to draw). Everything else just loosen up, if your friend is willing to ... loosen up and not nerd out.

Holy ship, you're gonna be that person on Halloween night  . You'll be the talk of the street among 10-year olds if you give some of the kids something lucky.... and maybe some high schoolers  .

 

 

 

 

My goal is to maybe present a topic... to myself. Oof. It's complicated.

Hopefully they’ll like it, I need to do something with the extra cards. I’m sure I’ll have quite the collection of duplicates by next Halloween lol.

Yeah I could do that and try to find some more casual/laid people to play vs. I really love the Blue Eyes White Dragon. The ancient gear monsters are really good too, especially the Ancient Gear Golem. I’ll definitely try and build my own at some point 

-

To stay on topic my goal for tonight is to go to bed before 2am. That way I can wake up at a decent hour before my family comes over.

Yesss lol.

Or just force people to take it easy on you regarding the order of phases and.... counter chains, etc. Find a Mystic Mine duelist for the lols.

Actually Mystic Mine has finally been banned lol.

Honestly I’d prefer a anything past 5DS era is out sort of duel. Pendulum summoning makes no sense to me and Link monsters are usually the ones with the massive amount of text. Keep it simple lol

Say whaaaa

Yes, big monster strong, small monster weak, magic card does tricks, trap card makes big monsters go away. Win duels! No link monsters. I hadn't even heard of pendulum summons

I'd personally try out a YuGiOh video game and let it guide you how to play (except "Duelists of the roses". I had that game. Fun but it was more like chess).

I actually downloaded yugioh Master Duels for that purpose and I still don’t understand pendulum summoning lol. It explained it in a tutorial and….it still doesn’t make sense.

My current goal is to figure out how to stop my stomach pains so I can sleep.

Oof..... ahhh that's interesting. I'm assuming pendulum derives from the fact the card swings from being a monster or a spell/trap card, but not both at the same time while on the field. I assume you understand that much.

Brief explanation, a pendulum summon allows you to summon a pendulum monster to the monster zone when you have two pendulum monsters in each pendulum zone, only if its scale is in between the scales of those two monsters (meaning you couldn't pendulum summon when both scales of each monster is equal or they are just one step apart). I wonder why certain monsters get many scales and some don't. Probably a limitation like cards with higher star levels needing more tributes to summon.

I can pendulum summon a monster with 3 and 3 for the scales if the monsters in the pendulum zones have 1 and 1 and 8 and 8 (or even 8 and 4), because both scales are in between those ranges.

 

Alka seltzer and sleeping on your left side helps :U .

Lolll I need this card. It's a dragon and its effect in a nutshell is: "nope".

Spoiler

(you would still take damage if applicable)

That makes a bit more sense lol. Just seems like a lot more extra work to get a high level monster out. 
 

My goal for today is to do my exercises at some point. Since I didn’t do them yesterday 

[Splashee 28,564]

My goal was to change my sleeping schedule back to normal, and that meant watching a lot of Reactors on YouTube, and trying to ignore all the "Like and Subscribe and Patreon" ads.

[Brony Number 42 10,069]

Picked up some deals on games.

[Clawdeen 14,256]

I still want to meditate, do my exercises and get one more box of cards put into my binder.

[DubWolf 17,264]

Spot Jupiter and Mars. One at least.

 

So I was able to finally find Jupiter. The nice surprise to Jupiter is presumably most of the time, you will also see a few of its moons almost right away  . It was not a very definite picture of it with its colored bands, but it was a definite sphere and a few bright spots next to it. Very cool  . Mars was too stupid high above me to spot .

It is quickly moving and that’s the hard part. I should probably do a blog instead of just… putting it here.

Survive today's unsolicited guests. I had so many randomly visit today without warning and it's gotten rather annoying.
