@ceruleanspark For a MTG site? That much?
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:13:44 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen They'll pay thousands on singular cards, I think their view of money is somewhat distorted.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:14:39 UTC from web-
@scoot Wow. I dont even.

@renovatedkitchen http://www.ebay.com/itm/GMTG-GEM-MINT-BGS-9-5-ALPHA-BLACK-LOTUS-MTG-MAGIC-THE-GATHERING-/310422435631 Just look at the price on this.

@renovatedkitchen MTG players have no concept of financial value

@ceruleanspark I suddenly want to fund a high quality fake card printing business
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:16:07 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen I'm in :)
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:16:28 UTC from web -
@renovatedkitchen You'd be better off abusively speculating at the launch of new expansions by grabbing a few booster boxes, waiting for the "Money cards" to be defined by the tournament players, and then charging obscene prices for them.

@mushi toothpaste poni
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:26:13 UTC from web -
@mushi Looks good, but could you make the eyelashes more like Twilight's, slightly smaller mouth, and hair curve down more at the tip (the mane that goes over the right eye)?
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:28:42 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen ´like this maybe? http://ur1.ca/d1hwj
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:35:20 UTC from web-
@mushi Sorry, I meant the mane over her left eye
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:37:58 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen but is it oke if thagt part of the mane keep like this?
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:38:32 UTC from web-
@mushi Yeah. Just follow the curve with the rest of the mane I guess
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:41:11 UTC from web-

@mushi That long part of the mane just a tad shorter maybe? Sorry for being picky
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:42:23 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen back mane or top mane?
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:43:00 UTC from web-
@mushi top
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:43:19 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen like this maybe http://ur1.ca/d1hyl
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:44:56 UTC from web-
@mushi Somewhere like here, maybe http://ur1.ca/d1hz0
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:46:42 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen i'd say it is a little too short, but whatever http://ur1.ca/d1hzn
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:49:51 UTC from web-
@mushi Yeah. You're right on that. It is too short
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:50:36 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen then maybe like this? http://ur1.ca/d1i0a
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:52:44 UTC from web-
@mushi Looks perfect. Thank you again, Rodolfo

@renovatedkitchen I spent $40 on a single card solely for @scoot's reaction. It was perfect and entirely justified my outlay.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:25:09 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark what card?
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:25:45 UTC from web-

@ceruleanspark seems good, but the art is meh
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:27:34 UTC from web-
@mushi All the old cards have pretty terrible art.

Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:29:17 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen Hey the most I ever spent on one card was about $15 and I never spent that much again
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:29:58 UTC from web-
@scoot I guess a hobby is a hobby. And they are all expensive
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:31:01 UTC from web -
@scoot @renovatedkitchen The most I ever spend on a NES game is 100 gulden ( old currency ). It was Megaman 3. and it was the worst thing I probably ever bought, I still repeat those mistakes every once in a while, with things like Duke Nukem Forever ( I did not fall into the colonial marines hole though ). Also I would guess that the cheapest hobby out there is birdwatching. The most expensive things you need to get are greenish clohing, a pair of binoculars, and probably more soap for your waching machine than a usual person.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:34:33 UTC from web-
@critialcloudkicker I used to overspend like mad, but in recent times I have slowed down. Thankfully
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:40:37 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen Lets see, I have 2 working computers, one of which I call "Derpy Hooves" because sometimes "It just don't know what went wrong" 1 newish HD monitor, 1 newish 42'' TV, 1 old monitor with 1920X1200. And I live in a storage container. Nothing ever seems to break around me ( it just... goes nuts sometimes )... So as it looks I never did such crazy spending as you seem to do. So how have you "trimmed down" exactly ?
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:44:36 UTC from web-
@critialcloudkicker ...is living in storage containers normal?
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:45:38 UTC from web-
@zeldatra As normal as renting a garage I'd say. I looked at it from a legal standpoint, and I am allowed to live in here as long as I do not make any sort of ruckus.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:51:45 UTC from web-
@critialcloudkicker And is it... comfortable?
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:53:08 UTC from web-
@zeldatra It is just like any normal appartment I ever rented in the city. Advantages include that your neighbours never annoy you, lest you count cows. and the only disadvantage is that I do not have a normal "door" so I can not get "normal" home insurance ( in fact, it is cheaper )

@zeldatra note that I rented a bit of land from a farmer and bought a shipping container on that patch of land, then heavily modded said shipping container. I actually have a grass roof and such
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:53:19 UTC from web-
@critialcloudkicker So you essentially turned a box into something cool.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:54:59 UTC from web-
@zeldatra Yup. Abeit next time I am going to do something like this I might just go ahead and bury the thing in its entirely, then make a hatch in the roof so that would be my entrance. But I probably have to reinforce some of the internal structure if I want to do that.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:57:46 UTC from web-
@critialcloudkicker That's a bad idea. It may flood.

@critialcloudkicker I no longer spend thousands of dollars on single parts for the car
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:47:12 UTC from web-
@renovatedkitchen so what do you do for your car now ? I must admit that car's are not really my thing.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:59:17 UTC from web-
@critialcloudkicker I dunno. It doesnt run now. Too depressed to want to do anything with it anyways

@renovatedkitchen I spent $600 on a fully automatic electric BB Gun. I own more computers than is strictly sensible. I wear an iPod /as a watch/. Crazy is insufficient.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:32:28 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Wow, really ? for that amount of money I would have made myself a 1:2 scale wooden working model of a nerf-gun or something
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:36:11 UTC from web-
@critialcloudkicker It was before China got into the AEG market and crashed the prices. Quality Airsoft equipment was prohibitively expensive for a long time before that happened
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:36:53 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Airsoft is still illegal here in Holland... Shame really.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:37:41 UTC from web-
@critialcloudkicker Irritatingly, just as the market was opening up and pricing was becoming accessible, the UK government implemented onerous purchasing and ownership requirements, driving the cost of ownership right back up. Now you need to play at least 6 games in 6 months /before you can own a weapon/, effectively adding a fixed cost of £210 to your first purchase.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:39:18 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Buy a crossbow.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:40:32 UTC from web-
@nerthos The truly moronic thing is it's cheaper and more lethal.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:42:16 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Exactly. The wonders of law. Now go get one.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:43:11 UTC from web-
@nerthos To be honest, the combat knife I purchased at a freaking comic book convention is more dangerous.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:44:15 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Pretty much anything is more lethal than an airsoft gun. I mean, I used to have gunfights with my brother using airsoft guns and cardboard armor.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:45:21 UTC from web-
@nerthos that sounds fun
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:45:50 UTC from web-
@mushi It is. You only need cardboard and safety googles.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:47:41 UTC from web-
@nerthos we used to make forts and play stone fights

@nerthos That's pretty much airsoft: The sport. You just have to pay £35 a time to play it with the kind of guys who only pick Final Destination in smash brothers.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:47:23 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Sounds both fun and awful. Also I don't know what final destination is since I despise SSB as a fighting game.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:48:50 UTC from web-
@nerthos It's the kind of stage the "Hardcore players" pick because other stages are "too casual".

@ceruleanspark CUTTING DOWN ON DEGENERATE GAMEPLAY
Monday, 11-Mar-13 23:16:40 UTC from web-
@redenchilada The only pleasant thing about meeting these people during Airsoft games is that it is not only possible but actively encouraged to shoot them in the face.

@ceruleanspark ... whut ?
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:41:02 UTC from web-
@critialcloudkicker The licensing rule is that you need to show a "commitment to the sport" (by playing at least 6 matches in 6 months) before you can buy a gun, to cut down on the /entirely imaginary crime/ of robbery at replica gunpoint.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:43:14 UTC from web-
@ceruleanspark Imaginary in Britain. Here people will rob convenience stores with just about anything. Including sticks. This is not a joke.
Monday, 11-Mar-13 22:44:38 UTC from web -
@ceruleanspark OHH, that makes more sense. I was thinking along the lines of "wait, what, you have to show them Steam recieps" but you were talking about airsoft games... makes a whole lot more sense. They should do that here in Holland :)

@ceruleanspark I have quite a few iPods, most are found in my dresser, hidden in the basement or used as an external hard drive. I own 2 servers, one desktop and 2 laptops. 3 xbox 360's, however two have been lost somewhere in the abyss. I've spent Nearly $3000 for car suspension instead of just spending on some cheaper $800 suspension. Or even cheaper used
