  1. Some areas just don't have much for Pokemon. I've noticed sometimes when you're near tons of Pokestops, like a college campus, not a lot of Pokemon appear. The are out there! Try walking around your neighborhood . You have to leave the app up , it doesn't run in the background if you close it.
  2. Also, I've had a couple 10km eggs. Not sure how to get them.. but they have had good Pokemon.
  3. Agreed. evolve as many low level guys while lucky egg is active . Gives 1000 XP per evolve. Stock up on pidgeys .
  4. Here's my best dudes But I just ran out of stardust (main upgrading currency)... for now.
  5. Buzzetta : there are lots of "crash course" sites about the basics. Would have been nice if they explained it more. Just Google "Pokemon go things to know". Once you get past the learning curve and start catching things it's really fun . I was skeptical too.

  8. You assign it to a Pokestop and it attracts Pokemon.. and players wanting the Pokemon. You must be there to assign it. Last for 30 mins
  9. On my Galaxy S6 it doesn't use any more battery than any other game and less than most. As for data usage, I played probably close to 10 hrs over the weekend and only used around 100 MB on the app.
  10. The scariest part is people already text and drive way too much at least around here. They do have it so certain locations can't be reached by ca which is good. Encouraging people to walk in park like areas with lots of Pokestops to get free supplies and XP. If anyone has played Ingress it's essentially the same platform of location based community gaming. Made by the same company.
  11. I really haven't found a ton of reliable sources to most the claims of deaths.. but I'm sure with the mass amount of gamers playing some amount are real.
  12. Looking them up now. https://m.reddit.com/r/DeathsByPokemonGo/?utm_source=mweb_redirect&compact=true
  13. We spent pretty much the entire day walking around.. OUTSIDE! There was a weekend long summer festival setup so it was fun to check that out too. Just found out there are drastically different Pokemon you can find at night vs. day. The big thing I have to say is the sheer amount of people playing this game is ridiculous. I have been gaming for a long time and I've never seen anything quite like it. People are getting outside, getting some sun and fresh air, excersizing, and might even meet a new friend. Over the weekend we probably saw around 300 other people playing , and that's no exaggeration. Server errors seemed pretty fixed today vs. yesterday. Still some bugs with Pokestops but overall way better already.
  14. I haven't played any Pokemon titles for a good 15 years. The lady was excited about it so I gave it a try.. and now I'm hooked. Good lord
  15. 338 days to go Back to my birthday weekend for 2017, so I should be able to attend this one !
  16. I left about 30 mins after the doors opened so can't give a good read on that unfortunately.
  17. Always loved the Tron variants. Kept a set and sold a set. can't believe those print runs are that small (according to that link).
  18. I've heard they signed a 3 yr agreement, and feelings are wizard may just break it off a year early. Again.. Just hearsay so don't take my word for it. I picked up a few things today before I had to leave town, but only about 6 comics dealers this year. Go see Chris @ Kristina's Collectibles & Mayhem Comics if you go.
  19. You caught me! I even got those new Tubmans before all you guys too.
  20. Sorry my 7 books used up all the new slabs, guys
  21. Graded to QC was about 6 working days for mine, so any day now !
  22. Good point. I think if anyone is capable of being "on" with fans for 4 days straight, it's Reedus. He seems like he wholeheartedly loves his fans, unless they bite him..
  23. There was a Wizard World Convention in Des Moines? Wow, I had no idea and I live in Iowa.. Yeah, it was promoted and I setup there last year. Not even bothering this year. Everything I've heard lately about Wizard is that it's a sinking ship. Hopefully that cruise keeps afloat.
  24. I'd be interested to know why our books both went back to Graded after being in QC as well.
  25. If you're at QC, you'll probably get S/S today.our subs were racing through the process and mine just pulled slightly ahead somewhere. Mine was only 7 books, if that makes any difference.
