On Paying €11 on a 67% shadow Ho-Oh

March 18, 2022March 13, 2022 Medic 1 Comment bad luck, ho-oh, lugia, pokemon go

I’ll be honest. I wasted my money on the Johto tour. Playing it mostly solo wasn’t particularly fun. But at the very least, I’d get some nice Pokemon, right? After all, I got a nice shiny Ho-Oh out of it. However, a big part of purchasing the ticket was to get some cool Apex Shadow Legendary Pokemon. I like Lugia and Ho-Oh, so the idea of getting what is basically Super Ho-Oh and Super Lugia sounded pretty neat. As I opened up the encounter got Ho-Oh though, it all kinda fell apart. Why? Because I said to myself, “how bad… [Continue Reading]

Bad Bloody Luck

May 15, 2019May 14, 2019 Medic 0 Comments bad luck

I have had the worst fucking luck lately. Everything has gone wrong and I’ve got the worst of everything. Frankly, it’s beginning to piss me off, so I’m going to rant about it a little. Let’s start with the Pixelmon server I normally play on. Because holy shit my luck there has been the worst. This server has a voting system (many Minecraft servers do) and you vote for the server and earn in-game rewards. With every vote, you also earn some Vote Credits, and you can save them up to buy a Legendary or a Random Legendary. Most of… [Continue Reading]

On Articuno

February 27, 2019February 25, 2019 Medic 0 Comments articuno, bad luck, legendary, legendary pokemon, pokemon go

I have way more pent up anger towards non-existent monsters than I have any real right to have. Just yesterday I was complaining about how Latias was a right little bitch, and now I’m about to go on another 500 word rant about another Pokemon. Today’s victim is Articuno, the first of the Legendary Birds from the Kanto region. One of the old originals. Basically, Articuno is a bastard. Okay, maybe I’m being a bit unfair. The main reason that Articuno is a bastard is that I have failed to catch Articuno for a very long time. Basically, in the… [Continue Reading]

On Damn Awful Luck

October 18, 2018October 15, 2018 Medic 0 Comments bad luck, chance, coincidence, good luck

I know the universe is random. I know it doesn’t care about insignificant specs like human beings. I know everything is by chance or by coincidence. I know that luck is just that: luck. But sometimes it feels as though the universe is stacked against me. Or at the very least, I somehow accidentally pissed off a god of fortune or something. Okay, let’s look at a very recent example, one that happened the other day and caused me to write a rage article. My one and only Ex Raid, in which I failed to catch a Deoxys. Out of… [Continue Reading]

“Ya Wanna See Mah Pokemans?” Part 2 – Some More Pokemon GO

August 17, 2018August 13, 2018 Medic 0 Comments bad luck, eevee, pokemon, pokemon go

So I’ve been playing Pokemon GO for about a week now. To the point that I better understand how everything works. And I actually have some good Pokemon now. I’ve completed various things, am on part 3 of 8 when it comes to the Mew quest and am now level 20. It turns out, come level 20, that is when the real grind starts. Up until now, it’s all been rather easy. I’ve actually been leveling up all over the place. Things definitely felt slower around levels 17-19, but from about level 6 to level 10, it all happened so… [Continue Reading]

The Problem with Riven Mods

November 10, 2017November 8, 2017 Medic 0 Comments bad luck, complaint, random, riven, riven mod, rng, warframe

When the War Within came out, it introduced Riven Mods, often just called rivens. The idea was that you’d receive a veiled mod with a challenge on it. Equipping this mod on a weapon and completing the challenge would unveil the riven and produce a mod for a specific weapon with randomized stats on it. These mods would cost about the same as rare/gold mods to upgrade and would ideally be a huge buff to unpopular or bad weapons, since the randomized stats included would give you more space for other mods, allow you to experiment more and try out… [Continue Reading]
