@training_court Is there a way that I can download the full text of my game logs, without having to load each one, expand every section, and then manually copy+paste?

[Jeffrey Blake @jgb146]

And having a way to play without Boss timers would mean people can have a larger variety of pals that they stick with, as winning doesn't depend on hitting peak DPS. This also enables more variety in pal builds, as defense and tankiness can become more important.

@Bucky_cm @Palworld_EN Tower-fight suggestions on reddit: https://t.co/w8LuIzCbJk

Some HUGE wins! Please consider:
towers operate as special dungeon w Tower Boss as the boss; mode or default with no boss timer; more diffs bt each Boss so they aren't carbon copy experiences

[Jeffrey Blake @jgb146]

The same could be said for creating more differences in each boss encounter. But other ways the boss encounters could differ would be requiring diff techniques to beat them (instead of everything being about creating overpowered beatstick pals).

@Catqb91 @Palworld_EN ... instead of the faster and longer distances that Galeclaw enables. There was at least one other comment to this effect, but it was buried with no response, so I wanted to make note that I saw it too. By last night, it was working normally again.

[Jeffrey Blake @jgb146]

@Catqb91 @Palworld_EN No. Not what I was talking about. For a while yesterday (after downloading the 0.7.3.9 patch), when I used the glider while having Galeclaw in party & having the gloves in my special items, I was seeing the same slow & short gliding experience that the equipment provides...

@ai ... I have been where we're going. And I strongly recommend it. If AI can get me back there in a shorter timeframe than I'd otherwise get there, all the better.

@ai I spent about 6.5 of the last 10 years (between age 33 and 43) in semi-retirement. Low expenses had more to do with that than high earnings, even though my trade has been computer programming, since high school in 1996.

In that time, ...

@ai ... And frankly, all of that was way more fulfilling than being the only one who could complete an 800k contract, building a technology that built a multi-million-dollar company, or implementing series of specs for clients who never really know exactly what they want...

[Jeffrey Blake @jgb146]

@ai ... I embraced the role of father and husband more fully than most men I see in the work force. I kept my mind sharp with heavily detailed hobbies, like the Pokemon Trading Card Game. I built a world in my mind that I'll spend the next 10 years slowly writing books about...

I've bought meals here and there, but this could have led me to even better options: https://t.co/4JnOPZqDYO via @YouTube

@SeagroveTCG That's awesome!

[Jeffrey Blake @jgb146]

@JesseParker Every art I choose is chosen with the intent to make prize-checking that much easier. So typically I want each card to have the same art as the other copies of it in the deck, and for the art I choose to be as distinguishable as possible from other cards

Cyrus & Lysandre do this

@ForTheWinTCG @YouTube All your vids do better than mine ever did, but...
(12+18+19+21+22)/5 = 18.4

If we round up by ~2k, the vid in question did almost 7k views.

Also, having the vid locked/made private will lower the view count when compared to videos visible to the world.

Keep killing it, King!

@SeagroveTCG @julienh Also, very sorry to hear this!

[Jeffrey Blake @jgb146]

@SeagroveTCG @julienh What was your request rate leading up to the ban?

[Jeffrey Blake @jgb146]

@DerMrBer @PokeDuelsTikTok In my last post, I literally said that tournaments haven't used Sudden Death for almost a decade. Of course they aren't in the TCG Tournament Rules Handbook. That doesn't remove them from the history of the game, nor from places that would still use them (non-tournament games)

[Jeffrey Blake @jgb146]

@TasiekYT @PokeDuelsTikTok Correct, and more succinct than my version.
