piecemeal

:D I saw your username and I was like aww; it's cute. XD;

My meal comes in peace.

thanks!

I'm gaming aspect of it nowadays and even that is less intense than I once was. I played the TCG during the times of Base, Fossil, Jungle, etc. pretty much when WoTC still had it. Now I play MtG semi-competitively.

Hey, I saw you're located in Minneapolis, me too (well actually St. Paul cause that's where my dorm is). =)

Hey, yeah I know what you mean by being alone as as someone who solely collects, it's true that most have had their curiosity get the best of them and start playing as well. I'm really glad I did actually, I still collect like mad but it's quite fun to play too. I like how playing the game requires an even more in-depth knowledge of the cards than you would get just collecting. There are a few others out there who purely collect, but they tend to be very intense, buying the rarest Japanese cards and accumulating collections that value in the many thousands.
Out of curiosity, what about the game doesn't interest you as much? Are you into other tcg games at all, like Magic?

That's the way most are now, but there are more who just do it to play and don't even care about the older cards.

I suggest buying one of the theme decks to learn. They may not be the best-constructed, but they certainly can teach. And the Trainer Kits can teach you how even quicker. (b'-')b

I think I started something you may be interested in:

TCTI stands for "The Count to Infinity". Mostly, it's like a general chit-chat thread with counting involved. It's in a section where posts don't count.

Mostly international and I don't really want to send one card out to America or something it'll cost me a fair bit of money. I'm joining a local Pokemon League soon and I think there you can trade and also you get free special promo cards! :P

My wonderland avatar? Thank you. I have far too many of the same cards now, I can't find anywhere to sell/trade them in the UK though :|

Hey, Yes I am indeed :) Most people collect and play but I just love to collect the cards. I had all the base sets, jungle, fossil, team rocket but I sold them all when I was younger in stupidity :( So now I started collecting the HG/SS ones. Which ones do you collect?

LUUUKE! What are you doing! I just noticed you're a supporter. What. I want the big avatar.

Thanks, you too

I will if I can get myself up in time. (b'-')b

Ok Luke! I'm Koko. I think it's great to have another older player on the site. I feel less sketchball-y.

Thanks man, I really appreciate it! ^^ What can I call you by the way?

D'awww thanks ^^ I just joined, so not for here, but I have made some for other forums! I'm too shy to post in the art threads here, people are really good -- but I might try my hand at the Oekaki... or open a sig shop!
