Bismarck.Josiahfk said: »Okay. So, I remembered what I originally wanted to ask this morning. My nephew (age eight) wants to start playing the Pokemon card game after being introduced via Pokemon Go, and this was one of his requests for Christmas. For those who played as a kid, does it matter what starter deck I get him? Can I get him a bunch of decks as a multi-stocking-stuffer or scavenger hunt? Should I just cop-out and toss him some cash? (That's not as fun as actually unwrapping to an eight-year-old.) Definitely cards vs cash. The excitment of wondering if each package of 5-10 cards or w/e has a rare card can be pretty great to a kid.
Good deal. Yeah, I was thinking that it would be more fun to spread them around the house for him to "hunt" them to keep in theme with the game. I might include the DS games in the hunt also as the "rare" find.

I was actually looking at this earlier. There's just different series and what not, so I wasn't absolutely sold on it. Your mention of Pokemon reminded me of it what I have been meaning to ask since about Saturday.
Damn you, FFXIAH, and your ability to distract!
EDIT: Even if I decide to get the box set, I think I'm going to go ahead with the scavenger hunt and individually wrap each card pack and all that business.

some of those are just card packs in a box tho, so he still get to get some random element on opening them.
if money not an issue, could get a full sealed box of card packs from a card shop someplace.
still tho, you should just give him a better card game and get him yu-gi-oh.
"i heard you wanted to play card games so here have yu gi oh"
learns disappointment down on an early age, gets a better game, and learns to believe in the heart of the cards.

Morning all.
I hope DPF treats you well. I don't plan on getting a lick of work done today. how's everyone else? big ***' weekend plans? my wife's making me chop down a pine so she can keep it barely alive in our living room, adorned with decorations, only to throw it away in a month. If trees were people we'd be serial killers.

Ever think about what the world would be like if trees treated people like people treat trees?
Imagine a tree walking into a crowded town square, picking out a human and cutting them off at the ankles then taking them home and standing them in a corner with decorations hanging off of them and calling it 'festive'.
There's Trees & Men.
Quote: I often think about what the world would be like if the roles of mice and men were reversed. Like, you go into the kitchen and reach for a bag of cheetoes but as soon as you touch it, a big metal bar comes out of nowhere and cracks you over the head, a mouse would come out of a hole in the wall immediately after and shout "Honey, I got another one!"
Another one I had before that.

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.

Continuation from: http://www.ffxiah.com/forum/topic/2873/ffxiah-linkshell/732/#150486
Update: Sorry Eternaltriumph, too much has changed D: (Page 698)
Eternaltriumph said: Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
