  1. There are a lot of pickled stuff specifically that's crazy, when you think about it. I wonder if it was the original "country fried!"
  2. America just calls them beets. Also we have supplement commercials late at night for powder that is called superbeets.
  3. Intercontinental championship bout is on right now, go wrestling.
  4. Maybe you need to be an "established influencer" to do that? I believe it's a rule regardless, to all attendees, I assume the establishment itself and or workers there have the rights to photo for promotion purposes, but I'd assume that is where it ends.
  5. I know 😏 I think it's their catch all in case there IS a problem. I usually still ask dealers and or cosplayers, that's why the cosplayers are posing I've only had a few dealers tell me no, and BECAUSE I was going to post here. I mentioned that but but still never said who nor pics when asked here. Can't win them all just trying to be hospitable.
  6. Every con I've been to instructs that you are not to take pictures, and I guess now nor videos, without consent.
  7. Welcome to the boards, there is a plastic crack thread that has figures, and also a statue thread

  9. Lol thanks for posting that, I asked what now seems like silliness just to have that quote do a good job answering all my questions I was a few inane posts amid plenty that did stay on track, so thanks for baring with me.
  10. Your original post seemed as a matter a fact, but I didn't want to assume, we all grieve different. My mom just the other day returned a call to someone who then didn't pick up and didn't return the call,.so she told me about it that she thought she passed on pffft. I'm trying to be more prepared for these conversations, to be a little more thoughtful. But my mom gets me.to belly laugh sometimes when she hasn't had me to talk to for a minute. I'm like well try and ring her again but Long story short that I'm preparing to take things a little more cautiously when hearing news. This all happened today, so ha I'm taking it one day at a time 😂
  11. Lol thanks! My lowly way of circling the news, but I DID just complete this set minus the x-men 25 variants white and gold. Regular covers complete though, I miss the usual on the boards, granted this thread is more importante!
  12. Doesn't say "after" But I dont have a good feeling about my slab
  13. How's you dad doing? @Namtak Prayers! I know you were taking down a mural of sorts, just didn't want you to think we'd forgot Life! It gets blessed going in and going out.
  14. This So is the game that CGC did invisible comics with acetate and manufactured the grade, now that is being attributed to these specific acetate variants? I'm starting to get it. Still sounds like instead of glod or plod it's now the ablod, ie acetate blue label of death. I thought at first this spread under other fields, then I saw cgc lack of response there of and wondered: does cgc knowing more "facts" than we do just disregard all these "other" attributes as speculation? I'm trying read between the lines jic there is a simpler approach, but it looks like I may be in for another 100 pages @Buzzetta variants bad, cgc after manufacturing blue label bad. and for those wondering, I do somewhat have vested interest in this, one in the set of my distorted holograms says "manufactured with distorted hologram" on the label rather than just "distorted hologram" Which I thought was cool at first, @Black_Adam
  15. Thanks for the true reflection and honest take away, I feel somehow these are going to become acetate exclusive rules. If "they" are making it up as they go along? I'd be more worried that CRAIN and flag and influencers are able to sway the cgc rules to fit their narrative in the name of publishing. Cgc gave in it would seem but didnt wrap their heads around everything like they have fairly succinctly in the past. I still see that cgc has a core is what I mean and not everything is ripped away but it's a sad state. It's not an excuse its just sad that they took on too much and tried to please everyone. That's my big picture. These variants just scream the past mistakes of the limited edition era and a whole lot of people are being swept out in the uproar. Vigilant people who swore to it, it just amazes me, cause I though "I" was passionate about comics not variants though, and Maybe I was just not as swept up.
  16. Point being the cgc market is now established for what it is, different cliques of their are for there own consideration. "If" only variants, that is the way it's being described, it amazes me the feelings on the whole industry. I'm trying to corelate so be patient. But it needs to be restarted for me what the untruth of the blue label and why it's not variant exclusively.
  17. Sure makes us look bad who applauded QC and graders Notes edit (with the amount of notes being lessened cause we noticed) being fixed. So it's not only @CGC Mike being thrown under the bus. In the end at least I stuck my neck out for cgc for what appears to be improvements. I still will buy and sell, I don't know how acetate affects regular business, although I asked several times to confused reactions. Seems the only answer is when it comes to "variants" it's nothing new. Further to THAT point, at least the general public has been made aware, voiced their concerns and now may decide for themselves.
  18. The shot at cgc I dont mind, just context. I haven't got a submission back without Notes since this announcement so jury is still out, although forecast doesnt look good
