Good buy - you're at 518 fair and square for now.

Default Magie
I recently picked up my 521st, a Magie error card. So I went from 520 points to 600. My first time to own a Magie!

Just a friendly reminder, if your claim of a Monster Number of 0 is correct, you are in a last place tie with over 6 billion people. Leon assures me that the forum software will not accommodate a list of over 6 billion names. Most importantly I would also refer you to Posts #37-39 in this thread in response to Post #28 for the definitive scholarly treatment of this issue, after which a Monster Number of 0 was no longer allowed and in fact became oxymoronic.

When your first card arrives, you will leave 6 billion people in the dust and are welcome to re-post a valid Monster Number.

Default Pessimist always thinking negatively
Frank, herein lies the conundrum...what if, hypothetically speaking (being an owner of an unspecified amount of T206 cards) someone were to have a negative amount of T206 cards? Would this negative quantity indicate T206 cards they no longer own, and thusly should they be duly assigned an inverse Monster number?

Brian,

Short answer - NO
Immediate response - WTF
Long answer - So a pessimist with 520 cards sells half of them and then has a Monster Number of zero???? Methinks the conundrum is between your ears.

By the way when referring to a Monster Number, always capitalize both the M in monster and the N in number.

I am...uh, I forgot what I was going to say.(oh yeah)... um, some on the board may know I am selling mine. Counting down I may stop at one, although I may actually have zero. That way I can still contribute to the thread.

If I remember what I learned in my high school Biology course correctly, the conundrum is actually part of the inner ear, thus not technically between the ears.

And doesn't WTF stand for What The Frank? -- Just pulling your proverbial Monster tail.
