No, that is what looked like most of the time. There was a bump in attendance during some of the cosplay panels, but that convention was empty most of the time. It didn't help that it was a $40 a day convention competing with a free Pokemon event.

Pretty much, yeah. You are not going to see a lot of girls in the competitive Pokemon scene. The older the division, the less girls you will see. You will see a bunch of Junior girls but Masters girls are rare (in fact, while in DC, I can barely recall an adult female wearing a competitor shirt).

The youngest Master at any given time is 17. Otherwise, they are all adults.

Yeah, they had some fun trying to stop that thing.

I don't think this is about using the cards. Its just something fun to do.

Hmm...you be the judge. :)

Yes and no. Pokemon cards traditionally don't have that type of full art detail on them. They don't have things like fire and flowers that extend to the borders of the card

Of course. I mean, don't you know how many tera-giga-flops of data are needed in order to render the whatchamacallits?

That actually makes your comment a little less relevant. Instead of "going out", you could obtain all of the Pokemon you needed from a sibling or a friend. You didn't have to "go" anywhere or do much of anything.

It isn't I guess, but not everyone can make it to an event (I always do, but I digress...).

People said the same darn thing about Mega Kangaskhan until she swept the hell out of Winter Regionals and is still kicking ass to this day. Trainers are still prepared for her, but that hasn't stopped both the Senior and Masters Division Champions from winning with her on their team.

Dragon is weak to dragon, but fairy is completely immune to it.

Yep. Nick totally made a live action movie of The Fairly Oddparents. It is absolute shit. The story is shit, the acting is shit, all of it is shit.

Do you remember that episode where Elisa got shot by Broadway?

Funny thing is that I would LOVE a Gargoyles movie to exist. Great story, great characters. I mean, look at this smug muthafucka right here:

But that is knida the problem. I actually just watched a review that pointed out that this movie fails to be a good kid's movie. This movie may not be targeting us 20-30 somethings who grew up with the Turtles (although, there are too many references to the first movie and the comics for this to be completely true),…

I love the thought process of these people:

I am very much aware.

I don't know if anyone has said this one, but:
