  • Hi. My name is TigerKnee. I am a cardiholic
Greetings everyone.


I'm TigerKnee from Houston, TX and UnitedCardist.  I've been looking for a different lately due to UC's largely un-moderated forums.  Sometimes a little structure goes a long way.  While sales and erotica threads are nice, they have their own place.  I can't believe I missed this site!  Love the content and structure and I can't wait to be a part of it.


A little about myself.  I'm an OCD collector.  Have a ton of cards that I apparently need and I inspiration is to become an excellent card magician.  Somewhere along the way, I had a child and that put a bit of a roadblock to that.  With that said, cards are my new addiction and I'm glad to be part of a community that shares the same interests that I do.


Peace

Welcome.  Grab a chair, pull up to the table and start dealing, already!  :))


We've been getting a few UC "defectors" lately - or would "expatriates" be more accurate?

Welcome to the Discourse!
"Cards are my new addiction" - I can totally relate to you. xD I'm fully obsessed with them at the moment. I'm hoping it will wear off soon, and I'll go back to being just a casual card collector.

Yeah I think what you'll love about us here is that we are completely uncensored, much like UC, but we have structure and anti-spambot software. You won't be seeing any erotica threads here, although admittedly nothing beats a good, nonsensical "Stacy sucked on my spine" post from time to time.

Glad to see you here TigerKnee, and I can't wait to see your contributions to the board. :)

Just to say, when I made that previous post about being able to relate to a card addiction, I didn't quite know the extent of your collection. xD
You have mightily outdone me on this addiction, my friend. As I can imagine most others on this forum have.
But honestly, watching your collection video, I think you have about 20 times the decks that I have. And that's not even me exaggerating!

As a matter of fact, I am!  I even modified my JAMMA cabinet and made it HD :)

I wish I could make the video shorter for all the ADD folks but there are too many decks.  And it took me HALF a day to make the video.  Needless to say, I'm not doing that again any time soon.

MAME comes on a JAMMA board now ;)?

That's awesome.  I'll admit I missed everything Street Fighter between World Warrior and vanilla SF4 (detour via Killer Instinct, Soul Calibur and, primarily, Lucas Arts adventure games) but I've really gotten into fighting games since then.  I've been wanting to build a MAME cab for ages, your one looks great.  Made a few sticks;






That last one is finished and is my main stick now (Happ and Crown buttons, JLF stick).  I've been keeping an eye out for a decent defunct cab but to no avail thusfar.

Mystery is the basic appeal of magic. Once the secrets are known, the magician becomes a mere manipulator, an actor in a suspense drama which has little impact because the audience knows the ending in advance.
