This is a box full of 280 PSA graded cards, and I waited over 450 days to get them back from being graded. Today, we open them all up on camera. What is up, you guys? We've been waiting since 2020 to get this PSA return, which is just entirely too large to show on the camera. Okay, we'll do it. Okay, here it is. Just for a quick look at it. But first, we have an insane giveaway. One of my Patreon members sent this to Phil from me and truly appreciate all you do to make such awesome content, and, oh great, that's not the same word. Here's what he sent. A Ghost Rare Blue Eyes Alternative White Dragon. This will be given away to one of you guys. All you have to do is like this video, click that notification bell, and let me know your favorite card from the return is. This is going to be a long one, so let's hop into it. There are tons of these boxes in here. So we're just going to take it one at a time, because that's just what you got to do. I don't know what else we could possibly do. Let's see if this is the correct sign without spoiling anything. So in this return, I think like 70-ish of these 280 cards were not mine. So some of them may not be mine. These are definitely mine. This is an LOB first edition card. By the way, this is from an LOB box that we opened like a year and a half, two years ago. That shows you how old this return is. So we have Tarub in the fire night. Can we get some PSA 10s? We're not going to take crazy long like we do sometimes where we check out all the corners. Because we have 280 cards.  But let's see what we got. A Mint Nine, so we're starting it off with nines. I think it's not perfect on the sky, so maybe that's what it is. We are going to be hoping for some of those PSA 10s on those rares because they are pretty nice cards. So here it looks like we have another that I pulled all of these, by the way. These are all pulled by me. So Spirit of the Heart first edition, Jim Minton. That's a nice LOB first edition rare. Next card. We have another Spirit of the Heart. So it looks like I had doubles of this one. Okay. I did open a couple of boxes. So a Mint Nine. Okay. So we're one out of three so far. Not the best start, but it's not the worst. Giant Soldier of Stone. This is a pretty cool card. Yeah. The very iconic from the anime. Let's see what we can get. Mint Nine. Oh, this is not a good start. All these are packed fresh and very nice. So I only sent the ones that I thought could get 10s. So so far not the best start in terms of what we want. We have on the Giant Soldier a nut. Okay. Jim Minton. So we're two out of five. It's not the worst. Not the worst. I could be doing a lot worse for sure. We've got an Aquamdoor. So it looks like we are on the LOB rare train right now. Mint Nine. Okay. A lot of Mint Nines. A lot of Mint Nines. We've got a Reaper of the cards. Very cool card. Yeah. And another Mint Nine. Oh my gosh. They're really... I'm not sure what they're hitting these for. Reaper of the cards. Okay. There's a Jim Minton. So if we have doubles, we've got like 19, 110 so far. Which is a little... Oh, I just ruined it. Okay. Jim Minton. Hey, hey. I forgot to cover it up. We will take that. Maybe we should just not even cover up these rares and stuff because there's going to be a lot of them. Okay. So next card, what's it going to be? Oh, a Mint Nine. Hey, hey. Okay. So look, it's splitting every time. If you have two, you're not getting two 10s. Here we go. Oh, an Arm Ninja. So it looks like we're pretty even in terms of nines and 10s so far, which is not the worst. I'm not going to complain about that. And... Oh, the Pot of Greed got a nine. This is actually a big one. Oh, whoa. This one is actually off-center. So yeah, that actually makes sense. I don't know why. I probably just because it's Pot of Greed. It's probably why I sent it. Okay. Okay. Do we have another pot? Oh, it's another nine. Oh, this one's also kind of off-center. A little bit. This one's definitely better. Okay. Two Pot of Greeds got nines. That's unfortunate. Do we have a third? No. The Nine Tri-Fecta. This one actually looks pretty centered. So I'm not sure about this one. It's hard to really tell, but okay. Three nines, unfortunately. I don't think I got four. Final Flame Nine. Okay. It's a nine-central out here. Can we get something good? Another nine. Okay. Another nine. All right. Come on. Come on. Another nine. Okay. Unfortunate because, you know, a lot of...they're not off-center. Then they should be pretty perfect. Fissure got a nine. Can we get another 10s? Been a while. Another nine. Okay. Great. That's not like LLB Commons and Rares, but not the best start. Let's see what we can do. We've got... Okay. Now we're into the Commons. The Numeruca. That's a PSA 10. Very nice. We have a... Spike Seedra. Got a nine. We've got the... Ooh. The 13th Grave. Got a PSA 10. Very nice. If you guys are interested in some of these LLB stuff, then just hit me up. We're really anything, but Larva... Some of these are not mine, though. But all of this stuff is mine because I graded these from my box. So push those back a little bit. We have... Succubus nine. Unfortunately, the Succubus got a nine. Okay. Not great. And... Oh, no. Our first eight. M Warrior number two. What did he do? Where's the eight? Is there something going on over there? I can't tell. Okay. This is nothing. I don't know. That in the middle. I think that's just like the PSA case seal. I don't know what's going on. I don't know about that one. Okay. Oh, and there we go. Witty Phantom PSA 10. We will take that. We have... Basic Insect. A nine. Weevil would not be happy with this. Mint nine. No. All right. Sorry for creeping y'all out. Oh, look. We're back to the rares, which that is a nine. This nine stack is going to go above the camera. An eight. What? Oh, come on. Centering is good. It's pretty good, actually. Wow. Okay. What's the eight here? You guys see this? You guys see how crispy this card is? Like the surface? How is this an eight? Hello? Hello? What's an eight about it? It's packed fresh. You can even see the gloss on the card. Like there's no scratching. That's straight out of the pack. Look at that. You can see it throughout the entire card. Why is that an eight? I don't know. That makes no sense. That one makes no sense. Okay. Next one. Flower Wolf nine. Man, they are really killing us on these rares. These are rough. We have another nine. All of these are packed fresh. All of these. And I didn't even send everything. I sent everything besides the pot of greeds that was centered. Another nine. Okay. Another nine. Wow. Okay. Yeah. Finally, we got a 10. A metal dragon. All right. Metal dragging at the PSA 10. Man, we started off getting a decent amount of 10s. Now we're just getting all the minds. Okay. Another nine. Okay. Shocking. All right. We're going to have literally an Eiffel Tower here. Another nine. Okay. All out of the box, by the way. Okay. Another eight. Okay. What's wrong with this one? Why is this an eight? An eight. I pulled it. So the back looks, I mean, you guys can see the gloss on it. It looks super nice. Wow. How was that an eight? I don't know. Okay. And a nine. On to the next card. We have another nine. Okay. Shocking. Shocking. We have another nine for the armail. We have a PSA 10 firegrass. Okay. We got a firegrass. Cool. A nine. Okay. Yeah. Impossible to get two 10s from the same card. A root water. Very nice. Okay. So we're not even halfway up the nines, but we are doing okay. Oh, another root water. Okay. Wait, we got to the same card. I just jinxed it into existence. A nine mammoth graveyard. Okay. Mammoth graveyard got destroyed. A 10 mammoth graveyard. Okay. That's good to see. Another 10 mammoth graveyard. Okay. Maybe this is the redemption here. Maybe we just had the bad box. Nope. There's the nine. We're back to the nines. We're back where we belong. Oh, a dark world thorns. Okay. I'll try. I'm going to go through these comments pretty quickly to get to the big stuff. Missouri Zame. Is there a Yame in here? Probably. Another Missouri Zame getting a nine. Oh, Missouri Zame. Yeah. We need Missouri Zame. Yame. USA 10. Skull red bird got a nine. Skull red bird got a nine. All right. We've got Skull red bird. Got an eight. What? An eight? Look at the centering on this thing. That's like the most centered card we've seen yet. What are these eights? I don't know what's going on. These eights make no sense. It's like the most centered card yet. I don't know. I don't understand that. Okay. Skull servant. Although it would have been a nice 10. Unfortunately not. We have another one. It's another nine. Feeling great about this so far. Let's see what else we got. Okay. We have a PSA 10 goblin secret remedy. That's good to see. Dragon capture jar. It was captured. We have a PSA 10 dragon capture jar. That's nice. PSA nine dragon capture jar. Oh, what? Okay. So we finally got to a nine. Rare or common guy, the dragon champion. This is an eight apparently. Okay. That's awesome. Reprint eight. Okay. All right. I don't know why it's an eight. I mean, the reprints are never perfect, but man, eight. I was not expecting that. Okay. There's an eight. See, maybe these will be more of this stuff. Nope. It's back to commons. Okay. They're a little bit mixed up, I think. We got a wasteland nine armored starfish PSA 10. Okay. When I have the nines, it's almost still taller than the tens. And eights. What the heck? These were ones that I pulled pack fresh secret rare eights. Okay. So try horned. That card is slightly off centered. Okay. Corners look great on this thing. That doesn't make any sense. Okay. Oh, look, we got a nine and this is the original print. So it looks like the, did I pull this? Oh, this is an E in. Okay. I did pull this. This is the original print and this got a nine. So it looks like the reprint just does worse. So this card's super minty. I think it's a little bit off center. Yeah. It's a little off center. So I think a nine is pretty fair on that one. Makes sense. At least next one. Tell me how this is possible. Centering is not completely perfect, but it's not terrible. Do we got some print lines in here or something? Cause sometimes these original are not original. These reprint foils are pretty easy to have like print lines, but I'm not seeing much. It's really hard to tell under the slab, but okay. Maybe is that a little nick right there?  Okay. There's something there. I don't think that, I don't think I submitted it. I mean, this was the, remember 15 months ago. So it could be wrong, but seven. Okay. That's, that's great. Of course it's on the blue eyes too. Okay. Next up we have a seven. Are you kidding me? They hate these reprints. Where is the damage? Okay. Next one. An eight. Another reprint. All these reprints are going to get eights and sevens apparently. I'm not even going to look at it because we know it's just because it's a reprint. A seven. We pulled all of these. We pulled every single one of these in eight. We have not gotten better than a seven or eight on a reprint. Wow. Wow. Oh my goodness. What the- Wow. Oh my gosh, man.  A sevens and eights. On to the next one. All right. On to the next one. We have a tie-on. So we're back to, am I not out of these yet? Okay. We got a 10 on that. Okay. The only thing we've gotten a 10 on so far are commons and rares. Just saying. Okay. Jimman 10. That's nice. A nine. Okay. Beva warrior. Okay. We need a 10 on the Beva warrior. Two nines. Nevermind. Armored starfish. That's our second one of that one, I think. Oh my gosh. An eight on a common. Okay. Great. A nine on the enchanted mermaid. Nine on the fiend reflection number two. Nine on the sandstone. Lesser dragon got a 10. Okay. Masaki got a nine, unfortunately. Green phantom king. That's a PSA 10. We'll take that. He taught to me giant. Another 10. Okay. This is better.  Okay. Enchanting mermaid. The 10 stack is definitely improving here. Trial of hell. Nine. Naturally. Naturally. Do we have another one? Nope. Dissolve rock nine. And got ended on the eight and just smack you in the face. You didn't think you were doing all right. Okay. This is a joke. This is a joke. Seven, man. Seven. Okay. Just mark them down to sevens if they're repressed. Maybe an eight. Yep. This is the good one. We got an eight. An eight. Will we get above an eight on a reprint? Okay. That's not a reprint. Yeah. We got a nine, but it's not a reprint. It's original print. So we've got a nine on the original print mystical elf, which has a very large foil shift over there, which is pretty cool actually. That one, uh, a little bit off center. So I probably deserves that. Here we go. Oh, a PSA 10. I pulled this one. This is an original print Celtic Guardian. Our first foil 10. Can you believe it? Yeah. This is an original print Celtic Guardian. We pulled a very long time ago. I had it laying around when I sent out this bulk submission. Very good chance for a 10. And it got the 10. All right.  That's why that's literally why an eight because he's a reprint. All right. And Jenzo has a reprint. Nope. Blue Eyes Tune Dragon as a reprint. All right. Great. An eight because it's a reprint. Awesome. We've got a Jenzo. That's a reprint. So we got an eight. All right. That's great. Oh, look, a PSA nine on a reprint. That means this card is completely perfect because every other card was almost perfect and they got sevens and eights. So this card must be like black label BGS level at this point because I don't even understand like what makes this one better? They look the same. Centering is like perfect on this card. Okay. Awesome. Vampire Lord eight. So so far we've gotten one reprint. Oh, there's a seven on the Exodia Net Cross. Very nice. Awesome. Oh, look. Chaos Ember Dragon got a nine. Yeah. This one is completely off-centered. So why is this the nine versus the other ones? I don't see the difference at all because they're all, I pulled all of them. So I don't see the difference here. Now a seven on the Black Luster. So I did not pull that one. So that makes sense because I hadn't pulled that one at that point. Oh, the Nipple Mamanca champion pack two got a nine. Unfortunately. That is an older print though. So maybe we have a chance in another nine. Both of them thought they were pretty nice and smashing ground also got a nine. 15 months. Totally worth it. Totally worth it for the sevens, baby. We have a Sparks nine. Okay. Let's get back. Best card in Yu-Gi-Oh. Yame. We got a Missouri Zame. Yame. So at least we got that. We got the Missouri Zame. Yame. And Hinotama. Okay. Very similar to Sparks. Just better. Okay. Another Hinotama nine. Man, we have a lot of nines here. We have a eight. Okay. Awesome. Love to see that. We have a 10-4. I just love this card. Isn't this pretty? This is some really nice green. I like it. And we have Mountain. Okay. Our magic cards are doing well. Okay. Never mind. We have a book of secret arts. That's a cool card. A legendary sword. We've got Mystical Moon. These are nice cards. I mean, these are some nice ones. Dragon Treasure. Okay. This is, this is all right. All right. Laser cannon armor. That might be a short print, actually. So that's a pretty good one. Mystical Sheep number two. Wanted to be a nine. Oh, there was a 10 of the Mystical Sheep number two. Okay. And Warrior number one, unfortunately. Wait. This is the one. This does have the shifted. They're all like this, by the way. But it's still really cool. Next we have, oh, a 10. Okay. That's nice. Oh, you're obvious a nine. That'd be a cool 10.  All right. We got it. Okay. These are not mine. Okay. The Sheen, I did not send this one in. So there's a, an eight. So I'm going to separate this on its own pile because it's not mine. Yeah. Okay. This is that caliber and another eight. So man, they are eight happy today and sevens. Like we got so many sevens.  That's a pretty card. That got a nine. Oh, by the way, this is for Yugi Vault who will be starting to post back on his YouTube channel again. And so go check out his channel if you guys want to see his returns and stuff like that. So, oh, we got a PSA 10 Tempest. That is awesome. We did have a couple of upcharges. That could be one of them. I don't know. It's definitely not mine. Oh, the Dark Paladin. So it looks like he's sending better cards than me. Dark Paladin and Tempest PSA 10. So I'm happy for him at least getting something good because so far been pretty rough for us. Oh, a Magician of Black Chaos. Pretty card. We have a MX Saber Invoker. It's an Invoker. That's an eight, unfortunately. Oh, Hieratic Sundragon Overlord of Helipolis. Helipolopolis. Man, this is originally from Galactic Overlord. I didn't know that. Next card we have another seven. Okay. We have the XC's unit. All right. All right. That's an eight. Oh, the Blue Eyes White Dragon. That's super cool. I love this secret rare print. That's beautiful. That's a pretty sick card. And oh, we got another one. Man, that's actually awesome. I'm pretty jealous of that. Blue Eyes. I got a seven. Okay. All right. That'll average it out. There's an eight. Okay. An eight. A nine? Seven, eight, nine. Oh my gosh. Is this going to be a 10? No. It's a Dark Magician Girl. Okay. Not bad. Another nine. He got a 10. Nice. That's nice. A secret rare Dark Magician Girl. That's pretty good. And he graded a Verite. Nice. You might, you might just want to use this one in your deck because I got an eight. There's so many boxes on my floor now. It's ridiculous. Here we go. Let's see what we got. Oh, my turtle got a nine. No, we pulled those too. Can we get a 10 please? Oh, and the magical stone got a 10. Okay. That's actually our first big, big return. Like this is actually mine. This is a PSA 10 from Champion Pack 2. I got a nine the first time I graded one of these. So I actually needed that one. That's actually pretty big. Then we've got a nine. Okay. I graded two of those, I guess. We have... Oh, this is the one we pulled from the AX starter box. Unfortunately, I got the nine, but this is a very nice card. This is a very old video at this point because it was obviously over a year and a half ago that we posted. I'll pop it up if I can even find it at this point. I remember what I called it. That's sick. I think there was a Dark Magician too, right? No Lord of D. Look at this. This is sick. PSA 10. Look at that secret rare. Yeah. This is the promo for some reason. This was the secret rare. It's kind of weird, but pretty cool. All right. We finally get some good cards. And then there was the flute of Summoning Dragon was in there as well. I got an A, but who cares?  It still would have been nice, but we'll see. Judge Man's super rare. That's so cool, but it got the nine. Any other tens? Any other tens, please? Unfortunate to say the least, but still a very cool card. This looks... I mean, this looks pretty nice with the centering on it. It's pretty... Well, okay, the centering is pretty bad. That's probably why I got the eight. Okay. Oh, that's sick. A Wing Dragon Guardian of the Fortress PSA 10. That is really, really cool. I like that. I'm a big fan of that one. That and our Lord of D. Oh, and we got a Cloudy and Sheep plot. I can't remember. This is either mine or his. I can't remember which one that is. And a She-ins Chancellor from Glass. Okay. Another nice one. We have Heartbeat Lady Sister's got a nine. Yeah, this was mine. I remember this. This card was Minty centering. Looks amazing. Wow. That is a rough nine right there. This is definitely... Is the centering slightly off?  Maybe that's why, but that's a nice card. We have a few other Metal Raiders cards. Oh, a PSA 10 Suijin. Yeah, there's one of them. All right. That's amazing. I can't remember if I... I think I might have pulled this. I can't remember exactly, but PSA 10 Suijin. Centering looks very similar to that Heartbeat Lady, except going the other way, but we'll take it though. We'll take a PSA 10 Suijin. We finally got a decent card out of this return. We are doing a little better though, since those reprints, but those reprints just really were... They just aggravated me. I know we pulled this one. Twin-headed Thunder Dragon. I remember pulling this. PSA 10. We will take that. Metal Raiders doing us pretty well so far. Metal Raiders always does great pretty well. Garnicia Elefantis. Okay. Now we're hitting the good stuff. Now we're hitting the good stuff. That's nice. Garnicia. We'll take that. And... Oh, this Portuguese Dark Magician, which... Wow. That's a nice card, unfortunately. Okay. Nice nine. Portuguese Bloods White Dragon First Edition. Jim Minton. Let's go. We're making up for those sevens, baby. Let's go. This has been a roller coaster ride. Oh, my gosh. Wow. Okay. Now I'm feeling better now. Oh, my goodness. A Needleworm PSA 10. Oh, we pulled this guy too. Okay. This started off terrible. Like, I was like, this is going to be the worst return. This has turned around. Needleworm? I was not expecting that. Cittering is actually not too bad for a Needleworm, even though it's not the TP3, which is insanely rare and very difficult to get centered. But, oh, my goodness. Needleworm PSA 10. Oh. I have a lot of TP5 hollows. I might have all of those in 10. I'm not totally sure. Oh, there's a TP5. He got a nine. I already have like... I had two of these, I think, or at least one. So, yeah, I didn't need another one of those, but that's so cool. Definitely feeling a lot better after those reprint... Okay, this was not my card. I'm pretty sure I didn't grade this one, so maybe did he send in, like, a bent card or something by accident? I didn't actually check him out. I did have a pre-video where I talked about what we were sending off, just so I could keep track of it, but I didn't actually, like, check him, like, for him, so that was okay. We don't know about that one. Question. Yeah, these are definitely his. United, we stand eight. Okay. I mean, these are not terrible. Not terrible. Nine on the Fiber Jar. That's pretty nice. Okay. I'm pretty sure these are his, at least. Double spell? Okay. I'm pretty sure I didn't send any of these. A Dark Necrophere. Oh, that's such a nice card. PSA-8. Okay. We're looking for those nines, really, I think, on a lot of this stuff. There's a nine. Okay. Marauding Captain. That's super nice. I'll have to go back and watch my own video to see, like, what exactly was ours and what wasn't. Okay. Creature Swap. Nice. I roll a command. Hey. X, Y, Dragon Cannon. Air Knight. Parr Shatt. Ooh, that's a pretty sick nine. That's pretty sick nine. A little bit off-center, but that's normal for LOD. So, nine is still really good. Hades, another nine. A Pharaonic Guardian. That's not a Pharaonic Guardian. That's a Hell Palmer from Pharaonic Guardian. Okay. You modded Dragonia? These are great. We're getting a lot of nines, which is not exactly what you want, but they're also not too bad and Mask of Restrict. Mask of Restrict. A Destiny Board. And can we get a 10? Ooh, a Nightmare Wheel. Eight. And next we have, oh, Maximum Gold Infinite in Permanence. Wow, Maximum Gold came out this long ago? Wow, that's crazy, actually. All right. A number nine. A number nine. You bell the Ultimate Nightmare. Okay, that's a sick card. Unfortunately, just an eight. A Duelist Pack Jadon Yuki. All right, Bubble Illusions. Look, reprints. Back at it again. Megamorph. Yep, got an eight. Okay, shocking. Look, if there's anything you learned from this video, don't send in reprints to get graded. Just don't. Okay, there's an eight, okay?  That's what it seems like. Spell Winding Sir. I don't know if they just can't tell that it's a reprint. I mean, they label them as reprint. Maybe it's just that the scratching is that bad. Okay. PSA nine. Oh, it's not a reprint. It's DB2. Okay, never mind.  Oh, a 10. He got a 10 on the DB2 Guardian Sphinx. That's actually sick. That's a really good one. Oh, and that's nice. Two Crystal Beast Sapphire Pegasus from Force of the Breaker Ultra Rare. That's a good one as well. Okay, let's get some good cards. Oh, a five. I think we just jinxed him. CRV Unlimited. Winged Korea Bell level 10. Okay, five. Oh, DB2. Okay, I'm noxious Celtic. That's not too bad. Oh, Korean. Okay, he had some good luck with the Korean stuff. Last time we got a DMG 10. Oh, we almost spoke it into existence. I didn't even know that was the next card. And... Oh, Korean Blue Eyes White Dragon PSA 10. So we got a Portuguese and a Korean 10 here and a near met seven reprint. We still have like 80 cards left. So we're still going strong. Let's see what else. Wait, I did grade two of these. Luminous Soldier PSA 10. Oh, yeah, let's go. Didn't we pull two of those? No, maybe. Did Rhyme send me one? I can't remember exactly.  Oh, the bloody... I just sent another one of these in and an express return just for fun and another video. So hopefully that one will do better than an eight, unfortunately. Then... Oh, a ma from MRD. I forgot I even submitted this. PSA 10 is... That's insanely sick, actually. Oh, the Buccaneo Mall! PSA 9. I think it was off-center, wasn't it? I think it was a little bit OC. Oh, the PSA 9. Why? Weevil is going to be very angry about this submission. We have... Oh, a Spear Message A. Ooh, that's pretty sick. I don't remember submitting a lot of this stuff. Oh, no, the L. Taking the L and getting a nine, unfortunately. Okay. Oh, look, a TP-1 common. That's sick. Kuwagata? That's a nice... Giant... The flea... The giant flea, actually. That's a PSA 10. Lava Gold. Did I submit this? I don't remember if this is mine or his. PSA 9. Either way, that's still a nice grade. A little bit off-centered. I'm going to have to check out the video, as I said before. Okay. Paladin of White Dragon. I'm pretty sure these are his. I don't remember submitting Paladin, but I could be wrong. Ooh, Chaos Command. All right. All right. Tyrant Dragon. A nine. All right. These are actually pretty good grades he's getting. A nine? First... Oh, that's STP. I thought it was MRL. That's a big card. Even though STP's still sick. Oh, a PSA 10 starter deck. Joey? I don't remember who this is, but I think it might be his. Either way, that's an incredible... That's an incredible one. And we got Last Warrior 9. Sick. That's amazing. Tarantula. That would have been a big 10. Okay. Can we get a big 10 here? Save or turn? Okay. That's another nine. Ooh, XYZ Dragon Cannon. That's a nine. Sphinx and eight. Okay. That was still really good if those were all his. Oh, Grand Nios. Okay. A nine. That's an Ultra Rare. I just submitted an Ultimate Rare for that. Oh, Cyber Dark. A nine. You know, I love the good Cyber Dark Dragon. Oh! Elemental Hero Air Nios Gemmint 10. It's not an Ulti or anything, but as you know, if you guys know anything about Air Nios and how ridiculous it is, how long it's been, it's only as one print. Just Strike of Nios Ultra Rare and Ultimate Rare in that same set. It has never been reprinted. That is huge. Like even the Ultra is super expensive. So a Gemmint 10, that's a big... That's one of the biggest cards of the return. That's insane. I know that's not mine. So congrats to Yu-Gi-Vault. That is insane, dude. Okay. Then an eight, but I'd rather have the Air Nios anyway. Okay. An Ultimate Rare. That's a very cool looking card. Okay. An eight. Okay. Not great. A marked A. Well, we got a marked card. It's the first time I've ever graded a marked card. Okay. Where is it marked? Marked usually means it's like written on or something. Hello? Does anyone see a mark? Maybe up on the border somewhere? Maybe it's like down here, but like that's normal. Sometimes it just gets darker. Maybe that's what they're talking about. That has to be it. I don't know. That's weird. I've never seen a marked card like in my role in return. But as I said, I didn't expect them anything. So it could have been marked. I don't know. Doom Shaman. It's like usually when it's like unintentionally marked as a mark and then like recolored is when they won't grade it, which I don't really get the difference. Like one is intentional. One's not. Who cares? They're still marked. Okay. A Query and a Lessa. A Silver Sentinel. Seven. Ouch. Okay. Sevens. An eight zombie man. This would have been a sick like nine or 10, but unfortunately I got the eight. Still awesome. Oh, the super electromagnetic Voltec Dragon. Electromagnetic. I can't even say it. Okay. Another one. He got an eight. A lot of oldies here. That's cool. Oh, super ancient deep sea. Cole. Cole can't. Cole can't. Okay. That is. These are very difficult to say. Oh, wow. That's so beautiful. But an eight. Yeah. It's flaming attorney. I bet the back had the scuffing and stuff on it. Yeah, I did. That's why such a beautiful card though. Oh, Injector. A five. Oh, this is in the era where it's like the cards are Ripley. You see that little dent thing back there? Ripley like they come on the pack like that. So I bet that's what it was. Cyber phoenix. That's an eight. Three. Rolls warrior of the revenge. These all priests are getting killed right now. While I was a shock nine. All right. All right. All right. Oh, and a that's such a cool card.

We pulled this one out of docs a long time ago, it would've been nice. Tim still a cool card. Man, this has been such a roller coaster. Oh, and nine. Wait, I graded an S-Y-E Unlimited? I don't know, maybe I did, maybe I did. I'm gonna be double checking all these because I'm just second guessing everything. And eight, okay, it's a reprint, shocking. Please know we're reprints. Oh, come on, it's just gonna be giving us eights. Come on, stop it. Stop it, a seven. Reprint hate is real. A clock tower present, we finally didn't get a 10. I have three 10s of this, so we finally got an eight on that. Energy absorbing monolith. Did I actually grade these or did these not mine? I don't think I graded this. I'm pretty sure those are his. If I was a PSA 10, Ulti, though, that's sick. Yeah, those are definitely his. Okay, I'm gonna have to check the try-ons, I don't know. Force focus, Ulti. The Ulti's are having a rough time today, that's for sure. Okay, a seven, ouch. An eight, ouch, the Susanowo, no. Zinmeister, that's a nine at least, okay. Voltanus, I had some unlucky times with Voltanus. Don Zalug, Speed Duel's Trial of the Kingdom, that's pretty sick. All right, PSA 10. Ooh, Magician of Black Chaos, another 10. Another 10, oh my gosh, these Speed Duel cards. Oh, a Max seed, nice, that's actually awesome. Maybe somebody can throw that in their Masterful deck. We have done it, ladies and gentlemen, we're on to the final 20 cards of the return. So I don't know who's or who's, but we're about to see Amazonus, Swordswoman. I don't remember who's that is, but that's a nice 10. I think this is mine, I'm pretty sure I graded this. Revival Jam, unfortunately got a nine. Wait, there's two of them, did I grade two? Okay, now I'm really questioning everything. Skilled White, I don't remember, we're gonna be double checking. Oh, whoa, that's a big card, Skilled Dark Magician, PSA 10. I think this is pretty low pop. I hope that's mine, I hope it is. And Bazoo got a nine, all right. Confiscation got a nine. Oh, tribe infecting virus from Magician's Force. Okay, that's a card. Somebody got a PSA 10, one of the two of us. Z Metal Tank, all right, a nine. Okay, Dark Spirit of the Silent, another nine. Oh, another Magician's Force 10.

Nine on the Ryokanville, can we get another 10 for the end of this? Ooh, Magician's Force, whatever this came from, the Magician's Force cards are ballin' right now. White Dragon Head, okay, that's a good one. Ooh, the Blue Eyes Ultimate Retro Pack one, got a nine, no, that's still sick. And, okay, that's definitely not mine, or is it mine, Doosa, I don't remember. Last card of the return, guys, I hope you guys have enjoyed this, a little bit more fast paced because we have so many different cards. Roller coaster ride, for sure, can we end it on a nice note? Oh, that would have been a nice note if that was a 10. Still sick, I was a nine.

Hi bitches, my name is Fredrick.  Chen, you see it? You see it? Yeah, don't forget it. So Fredrick's art camp is officially its own playlist. You can see it right here. Go look at it. And not only do I have acrylic paints, watercolor paints, and a lot of synthetic brushes, dollar store acrylic paints, and anxiety instructions right in there. Why do you watch me again? But I also have these babies. Yes, Amsterdam acrylic paints.  Why aren't you saving for college? Well, you know what? I recently saw this post on Etsy and I'll show it right here. And I looked at the price tag and it's after my calculations, $112. I am a soon-to-be college student. We don't do $112 shoes.  No, my Asian family taught me to be cheap, but in a smart way. Because why spend $50 on vans and then paint them, or just buy the straight-up $112 shoes on Etsy? You can find $4 pairs of white shoes from the thrift store and use some $20 paint instead. Now I'm gonna keep in mind that the $20 of paint comes with literally four of these. Like, I got a lot. So I'm just gonna say these are $10 shoes because you can just buy like a couple colors.  So we're gonna prepare my art studio, which is the floor of my room, by the way, and I'm gonna get me some yellow sunflower shoes today. But first, I must get into my artistic costume. Parle-vous-français. Yeah, I took four years of French. Let's do the video. So first I'm gonna get some cups of water. I'll be right back. Okay, I'm back. Let's start this. So I'm gonna first trace this out with a pencil. Let me zoom you in a little bit. All right, so I have my shoes. Hello. So all I want to do is just take this design and then pencil it all out through here. So give me a few hours. Hold on. All right, so I got thirsty. So I got some kombucha. It's yellow, you know, fitting the theme. Not sponsored, by the way, but I would wish I was. So I have all the sketches down. I'm noticing right now that this flower is much bigger than any other flower. And I want to change it, but I'm also kind of lazy. I think it'll be fine. So now we have to mix up all my paints. So let me get some pallets. All right, these are all the pallets that I have. I cannot wash these perfectly. I'm sorry. But I'm gonna first mix some brown together. So I'm gonna mix together raw umber and burnt sienna to try to get like a sunflower seed color. Oh, wait. I just realized I don't need to paint that much. So I know it's two-part paint and one-part textile medium. Now, this is like actually liquid. So let's try not to spill this over the apartment floor that I'm about to move out of. Oh, oh, this is like... This just smells like glue. Did I just pay $10 for overpriced glue? Did I? All right, so I'm gonna do something smart for once. I'm not gonna pour it straight onto there. I'm gonna pour it into this little teaspoon thing I have and try to measure this all out. All right, so it's not gonna be exact measurements because I'm too lazy for that. But I think this is good enough. So let me just mix this up real quick. Every time I mix too much paint, I always do this. All right, so I'm gonna test this on the back of my college sheets because I just want to see what this color actually is. All right, so I only have to color in a few spots and I want to be really careful with this because I can't draw outside of these lines. Now, before I paint, I just want to put tape over the sole of the shoe because I don't want to get stuff on it. This is giving me some flashbacks. Okay, this is now working so well. Give me a second, I'll be right back. Two hours later.  So now that these look even more DIY than ever before, I hope this paint hasn't dried yet because I left it out there. But we're just gonna start. Oh, yep, it's dried. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. You're not allowed to dry it. I'm gonna go ahead and paint on all of the brown parts. Oh, Jesus, it is so easy to make a mistake, oh my God. Now, the trick is to take your time and be patient, which is very hard for me, as you all know. But seriously, don't try to make your layers too thick. Or else, your paint will crack and I'm already making this way too thick. Great, great, great. If you came here looking for a real tutorial, click away. Okay, that's not too bad. I can go with that. Okay, let me think about what is the easiest part to paint. Like, the front, yeah, this is the front.  Keep in mind that I have to outline all of this. So like, it doesn't have to be perfect. It just has to be good enough. There's a reason I say I have below average content because it's good enough. Ooh, my stress. Let me zoom in a little bit more for you. Even a little more. There we go. Oh, no. Oh, no, it's getting on my finger. I'm gonna wipe that off before anything bad happens because I already feel it coming. Okay, so I think that's all of the front. Now I'm gonna get the side. This requires the technique. Technique, the technique. Ooh, okay, let's not touch that part. One more circle. Yeah, definitely made too much paint for this but it's better to have extra paint than not enough. Okay, that one is done. Now we have another shoe. Let's start off easy. Let's do the front first. You know, a part of me wants to save this paint because I'm that cheap but I don't know what to save it in. We might come back to that. Okay, now this enormously large flower. Ooh. I'm breathing really hard right now.   Okay, three more dots. I'm kind of scared that my love for yellow will just keep growing to the point where I might need an intervention. It might be time, guys. This guy's addicted to the color yellow. Find out his story below. Oh my God, my hand is shaking so much. Stop. Okay, one more dot. I just can't wait to show you guys how much extra paint I made. All right, that's the end of the video. Look at how much extra paint I have. I need to find something to save it with.  I hope everyone who is a professional painter is cringing at me right now and judging me. I'm also going to take this time to use my paint towel which is a beach towel that I accidentally put paint on. So now it's a paint towel. So next I want to tackle all of the yellowness. Now this is really appealing to me right now because this one right here, this one right here seems like the perfect yellow for this. This one is called yellow medium. Mmm, that much. One part textile medium. And I think I'm just gonna reuse the brush for this even though I probably shouldn't. Oh, look at that yellow. Look at that beautiful color yellow. I'm literally gonna have a yellow room when I move, mark these words. All right, so let's get started with painting. I'm gonna try to see if I can keep a gap in between the lines only because I want to be able to trace it. Oh, it's beautiful. Oh my God. Wait, I'm pretty sure I can go over that with green. If not, so God help me. Now this paint is said to be top notch quality. So I better see full pigmentation.  Wait, which one's the leaf? Damn it, I was right the first time. But so far this seems much easier because I don't have to be as exact. Which is a very good thing for me by the way. My body, however, physically hurts now. I would like that to stop immediately. Really glad I saved that brown because I might go over some of these parts again just because I'm not really good with layering.  Okay, one flower done. Move on to the next. Okay, running into another problem here. How the heck am I gonna get rid of all these pen marks? I'm not gonna trace it that thick. I'll figure it out along the way. This is taking such a long time and I would like to listen to music but then I'm just gonna get copyrighted. Like there is no win-win situation here and my body is aching. There's a piece of fabric here. There's a piece of freaking fabric here. The perfectionist in me is coming out again and he rarely comes out.  And there's a stain here and I was supposed to cover up that stain using the big flower but someone forgot. Everything will be A-okay. I also can't stop smelling detergent because I washed these for two hours yesterday and I still don't know how that stain ended up there. Like the stain showed up after the wash. How does that make sense? Not someone's gonna come. It's gonna be like actually Frederick. Then proceed to give me a two-page essay, body and conclusion about why the stain appeared. Okay, so after like 20 layers, I got that one done. I will say on camera it looks much better and that's how it always has been from my channel. Exhibit A, my face. Exhibit B, my skin. They said blow-dry this after but I don't think there is any need to because this whole thing's gonna dry by the time I'm done. I haven't even finished one shoe and I've been here for like over an hour. What time is it? I've been here for two hours.  It's like 90% silence, 10% me talking sometimes. Like how the heck did that flower take so much less time than this? Let's go to this flower. I'm also running out of yellow which is a very big problem. Ah, no, that's another leaf. I painted on another leaf. Uh... Now this was so hard to draw over because it was like there's too many lines so I don't know how this will look with paint over it. Wait, wait, before I do this let me first identify the leaf.  Fill me twice.  No, there's fabric on here again. Please go away. One eternity later. Jesus Christ. I've finished one shoe officially onto this one. And all my tape fell off. Great. I'm gonna paint this big flower first.  I can't do it with it anymore. We're going freehand. We're gonna... We're gonna yellow this. How is that gonna do hard? Whoa. Wait, there's a divot here? Wait, hold up. Now I'm curious. Did I get all of it? Okay, so tape is a waste of time. Let me go back and fix all of this. Let me go back and get all the little parts in this. Yeah, you definitely don't need tape. I don't know why that tutorial is so scared of people messing up. All of that. All of that. All right, that's just good. Back to this one. Yeah, see, look how much brown I missed. Oh my God.  Guess who's laughing now? Ow. Did you just hear that? That is the sound of tendonitis. That is the sound of arthritis. I'm really starting to run out. Is not a good thing. Please, I need you to be more full coverage. Three more flowers. No more paint. Time to freak out is now. There's yellow on my soul. There's yellow in my soul, too. I think my kombucha is lukewarm at this point. I'm cutting it close with the amount of paint left in my pan. Why did I draw so many flowers on here? Oh my God. Okay, take back what I said about being able to finish this with the amount of paint I have left. We're not going to make it. Wait, maybe we can.  My back may be killing me, but oh my gosh, I did it. You guys, I used the perfect amount of paint for once. There's really no more in there.  I must take a break though because my back is about to pass away. And my foot is numb. Oh my God. Okay, so all I have to do is paint the green and then re-do the brown and then trace it all and then we're done. And now that I think about it, yes. I just bought more acrylic paint only to open one color because now I'm going to take some emerald green, mix it with literally one drop of sap green and then we're going to get my final color. Sorry guys, battery died.   Seriously, where did you go? Oh no. Oh, it's by me. Okay, I'm done. Okay, put like a few drops of this in here and we're still going to use the same paint brush because I'm cheap. Okay, so that's a little bright. I would like it just a little bit darker. So we're going to take our favorite color.  We're going to take our hookers green, everyone. Just a little bit because this is pretty dark. Okay, I'm liking this color. I like this. I like that. So where are my failed leaves on here? I'll start with the back this time. Oh, that looks so cute. Oh my God. The leaf just pulled it all together. Oh my God. Notice how I've learned how to hold the shoe in my hand. I'm really getting the hang of this guy's like, this is enough fail for once. I actually did something good. Oh, look at that precision though. Mmm. Oh my God. I love this.  Mmm, beautiful. Yeah, this brush really does do everything. It's flat so I can get in the nooks and crannies. It's pointy so I can make precision. Oh my God. Look at that line. Oh my God. I'm so proud. Oh no, wait. I think I just got too excited. I kept going and going and I realized that this leaf ended much sooner. This is fixable. All right, so I'm going to make one small change. I don't like the direction of this leaf and I would like to remove these two stains. So this stain, you're going to be a leaf now. Okay, small problem. Um, I didn't make as much green as I needed I think. Let's pray this turns into this situation with the yellow and it all works out in the end.  Sorry, I just realized I ran away from the camera for like a clean five minutes. Mmm. Oh, never mind. That's not that big of a mistake. Notice the overdramatic gas that just happened.  Frederick, don't do that ever again.  Frederick, slow down. Okay. Okay. One, two, three more leaves to go. Oh my God, slow down Frederick, please. Like this hand just thinks before I do and I haven't seen any drops on my floor. Like look at this. Frederick, our camp is getting a better reputation. Now let's just raise enough money to get himself in his own studio. So he doesn't have to paint on the floor and ruin his back every time. And then class can finally be in session. That leaf's done. One more leaf. And I think I have just enough. Look at that. Frederick knows how much paint he needs now too. Oh my God. Oh my God. I'm done. What's up, Matt? I'll take paint. Okay, bye. That was my dad, by the way. All right. So I don't want to film the rest of this because it's going to be so boring and I have too much to edit. I'm just going to take a Sharpie. I'm just going to take a fine paint pen and trace over everything and then we'll be done. Let's cut to the end result. One eternity later. And after four total hours, I am freaking done. Oh, this is why I don't do art videos. They take so long to make. But yeah, these are the final shoes. I'm actually really proud of them. I think I did a great job for once. They're not perfect, but I don't really care because they're shoes. They're four dollars. There's nothing to complain about. And I'll be wearing these a lot now. So that's all I have for today. And if you enjoyed, give this video a like. Leave a comment down below about what art video you want next. Please let it involve paint, especially acrylic paint.

Y Gweithio, everyone, and I welcome you all to the eighth meeting of the Delegated Powers and Law Reform Committee. Agenda item 1 is consideration of instrument subject to affirmative procedure. No points have been raised by our legal advisers on the following affirmative instruments. The Drought, Courts, Reform Scotland Act 2014, relevant officer and consequential provisions Order 2016, or the Draft Home Detention Curfew Licence Amendment Scotland Order 2016. Is the committee content with these instruments? Thank you. The committee may wish to welcome the fact that, following the committee's report on the original court's reform order, the Scottish Government has complied with the committee's request for that draft order to be withdrawn and relayed with the errors identified therein corrected. Are we content with that? I think that it would be useful to put on record that our thanks to the Government for doing what they have done is that we were quite critical of the initial order, or the initial draft order, and I think that it's very much welcomed that the Government have listened to our concerns and other issues. Thank you. Would others share that view? All right. That's great. Thank you very much. Well, I too agree with that. Agenda item 2 is the consideration of instrument subject to negative procedure and no points have been raised by our legal advisers on the following negative instruments. An additional support for learning sources of information, Scotland Order 2016, SSI 2016 slash 299, all the community justice outcomes improvement plan and performance report, Scotland regulations 2016, SSI 2016 slash 309 or the civil legal aid Scotland fees amendment number two regulations 2016, SSI 2016, 317. Is the committee content with these instruments? Thank you. The committee may wish to welcome the fact that the Scottish Government has responded positively to the committee's seventh report calling on the Scottish Government to correct drafting errors identified in the civil legal aid Scotland fees amendment regulations 2016, SSI 2016 slash 290 by bringing forward SSI 2016 slash 317 quickly. I would also like to thank the Government for responding positively in that regard. Agenda item 3 is the consideration of instruments not subject to any parliamentary procedure. The Act of Adjournal Criminal Procedure rules 1996 amendment number three, supervision default orders 2016, SSI 2016 slash 300. Firstly, there is a minor drafting error in the rule 2023 brackets 2 of the criminal procedure rules 1996 as inserted by paragraph 2, 4 of the instrument. Rule 2023 brackets 2 refers incorrectly to a supervision default order made under section 256 AC1A of the criminal justice act 2003. Such an order is made under section 256 AC4C of that act. Secondly, there is a failure to follow the normal drafting practice in relation to the title of the instrument. The title indicates that it is the number three amendment of the criminal procedures rules 1996, but the act of adjournal criminal procedures rules 1996 amendment number three, instruction of representation in the High Court 2016 SSI 2016 slash 201 has already been laid before the Parliament. The normal practice would have been to number the instrument as the fourth amendment of the criminal procedure rules rather than the third. Does the committee wish to draw the instrument to the attention of the Parliament under the general reporting grounds on account of the aforementioned minor drafting error and the failure to follow normal drafting practice in relation to the title of the instrument? Does the committee also accept that the Lord President's private office intends to rectify the drafting error by means of a further instrument to be laid at the next available legislative opportunity and that the Lord President's private office is taking the opportunity to review the drafting practice in relation to the use of numbering in the titles of instruments that amend a principal instrument? No points have been raised by our legal advisers on the following instruments, the act of sedurn electronic authentication 2016 SSI 2016 slash 306 or the Air Weapons and Licensing Scotland Act 2015, commencement number five and saving provisions order 2016 SSI 2016 slash 307. Is the committee content with these instruments? Excellent, and that concludes the committee's business for today. Thank you all for your attendance.


My name is Paul Carmini, and I'm a graduate student at Central Michigan University for administration. Okay, can you spell your first and last name please? P-A-U-L-C-A-R-B-I-N-I. Alright, we'll get that done in a little time. Yep. Alright, so we're going to ask you some questions for a video, and I'm going to ask you some follow-up questions when we're done, and I'll just have you back in a little time. Thank you for taking the time. First of all, what is your role at Central Michigan University? At Central Michigan University, I'm a student. Just like everyone else who's in this task, we're either students or, as of May, we graduated undergrad or our master's programs. And we're all volunteers. We're part of an organization called Sexual Aggression Peer Advocates, or SAPA for short. And so we're all members of SAPA. It's a volunteer organization at Central. We run an online advocacy and a crisis line 24-hour days, seven days a week while schools are open dealing with sexual aggression. Sexual assault, domestic violence, stalking, harassment. And so we all volunteer as part of this organization, and we also do educational programming with it. And one of the things we do is this performance, no zebras, no excuses. That's good. I'm going to rephrase it a little bit. What is your role at Central Michigan University again, and why does that bring you here? Our role is simply with SAPA is to create an environment for survivors and secondary survivors to come into the system to find people to get help. A lot of people don't really know a lot about these issues. They don't know what to do to help people. They don't know what to do to help themselves. So we create a safe environment because we're 100% confidential for them to come in, talk with us and figure things out. What we're doing here is Don Sapo, Department of Navy, Sexual Assault Prevention Response Office, found Steve, contracted Steve, and he's been doing a lot of help. Doing a lot of things for them with training command staff, and then we kind of got brought in because of the performance we do. It's been researched before, and it peels well to people who watch it. It peels well to people of our age. What we're doing here is doing these trainings for sailors and marines around our age to get them educated on sexual aggression and eliminating bystander mentality. Thank you. We had talked about this earlier about what do they mean by no zebras? What they mean by no zebras, no excuses, is when you're watching Discovery Channel Animal Planet and they do a special on the safari, and you see a herd of zebras out by the watering hole, they're just drinking, and then you see a lion, and it starts to stalk around them, picking out its target, and then it comes ambushing in. All the zebras take off running, scatters, and the lion pulls down the one zebra it wants. And once it does that, all the other zebras stop running. They go back to eating their grass, drinking water, because it's not them. They lived another day, it's not them, they don't have to worry about it. But what we say is no zebras, no excuses, is to kind of eliminate that bystander mentality. If the zebras were to watch out for each other, stick together, they could easily overcome one, two lions, and save that one that could pull down. Paul, why did you join the zebras? I joined zebras with some personal experiences I've had in the past. This was a cause that kind of opened my eyes, and I realized there are a lot of people out there, a lot of survivors, and all these different issues. And I just wanted to get the education to be able to help these people and to help a lot of people. And doing no zebras was just another way, apart from Sapa, to reach more people, help more people, and gain more knowledge and personal experiences for myself to be able to further and better help people.  Why did you choose to participate with the zebras instead? It really wasn't no-brainer. This has been an amazing summer, an amazing experience. Doing this for the military, being able to speak with sailors and marines has been such an educational experience for us personally. At the same time, our military does so much for us.  So for us to be able to come in and help sailors, help marines, it's a huge honor. We've all just felt so blessed and so privileged to be here doing this. So could you maybe sum that up, your desire, what your desire was, and how it helped, how you enjoy trying to help the military? It was a very unique experience. Really nobody gets to do this, especially civilians coming in and do this, and college-age civilians. So for us it was an area to help marines, help sailors, help people who defend our country do something for them they do for us. And then at the same time it was a huge learning and growing experience for us as advocates in this field. What are some of the similarities between college students and sailors? A big similarity is that regardless of their sailors, marines, or civilians, a lot of them feel that nobody will believe them. They feel people don't care, they feel that if they talk to someone they're just going to get blown off because people will see this as just a women's issue. They don't really think it happens as often as it does. So that's a big similarity we're seeing when we're talking with both is they really feel like they can't go to people because they don't think they'll care about what they have to say. How do you think experiences between sailors and civilians are the same? They're the same that sexual aggression regardless in the military or in civilian world, it manifests still in the same way. It's with different people and different environments, but the sequences are still the same, the characteristics are still the same. So it's still the same thing that's happening, it's just within the ranks of the military versus students at a college campus. What has been your most memorable experience as a Zebra this summer? I think one of them when we were in Groton, we got to do a show for the McPon. He came in strictly just to see the show, introduce the show, speak with us afterwards and it was an unbelievable show. It goes to 2,000 submariners, they're all real excited, real pumped for the show. The McPon got real riled up and just seeing that someone that high in the military really caring about this issue and really putting in the effort to come and learn and get other people educated on the issue was just unbelievable. It was great. This DVD, this performance is given to Sid Sothmors. We do it for a freshman. Freshman, thank you. I'm sure they get a lot, I'm sure it's a powerful experience for them. What do you hope to get out of it, what do you hope the saders get out of it? Really we hope they just get an awareness. The point is we do these vignettes that show real life situations of all the different sectors of sexual aggression. And we just hope when they're leaving they're educated on it and so we hope to eliminate that by center mentality. So they can't leave and say I didn't know because they will know. They'll be able to notice these things, interpret them and know how to intervene. So we really just hope they leave and they make that change because that's why we're here. There's the issue within the Navy, but we know they're the ones who can fix it. They're not the problem, they're going to be the ones who will change it and fix it. So that's why we're here. What type of reactions have you seen from saders from previous shows? We've gotten amazing reactions. We get people coming up and shaking our hands and telling us it's the best training they've ever seen on sexual assault. They're really happy that we came because it's very in their face, it's very realistic, it's not sugar coated. It's not death by PowerPoint, which they're beyond happy for. They don't want to sit there for an hour and a half watching PowerPoint slides go by. A lot of them have just been saying it's best training they've seen, very helpful, very informative and really opened their eyes to something they didn't realize before. Is there anything else you'd like to add? For all of us, we've just been so honored to do this as a whole cast because the military does so much for us as a country and for us to be able to go and do this for the Navy, for sailors and Marines and to help them and have them come and tell us their stories and look for us for help has just been so humbling and such a privilege for us and we definitely haven't taken any of it for granted. We're just so excited to be here doing this.

I'm not sure, can you? Yeah, you can hear me, right? And I hope this works as well. OK, it does. Yes, Francie said thanks you for the intro. And I wanted to also make sure that a lot of this stuff is my opinion. It sounds like the opinion of the team. I have been working on Solidity since 2015. And in the past year, I've been kind of taking a break. And I did write a lot of code in Solidity itself. And I think some of this is like a culmination of my experience using the language. But I hope some of these things I'm mentioning may come to fruition. OK, so 0817 is the latest release. It's 100 second release. We already had more than 100 releases. That is just insane. And we probably have more than like a thousand nightlies, which is just crazy.  And sometimes we do have like bug fix releases as well. In some of the years, we had releases every two weeks. I think lately it's more like monthly. And I hope this is going to continue. Maybe you're going to get back to like bi-weekly releases, but at least month releases. And I'm saying this just to show that how active the development of Solidity is. I'm not going to go through all of these. You can find this really nice chart on the SolidityLang.org website. And it shows you all the interesting milestones we have accomplished since the beginning. However, it doesn't show anything past 0.6, because you made this two years ago. But as you can see, it's a lot of stuff going on. And based on like having over 100 releases, you may ask the question, when do we actually get to 1.0? And you may not be alone asking that question. We do get the question super frequently. Last year, there was like this big debate. This particular issue I'm looking here. The issue is much longer. The description is maybe 10 times as long. And the author of the issue provides a bunch of different reasons why he thinks Solidity should be at 1.0. I summarize like three different discussion points we have been debating on this issue. The author said or had the opinion that the current scheme doesn't actually allow breaking releases. The separation of breaking release and non-breaking releases. In his opinion, every single Solidity release is a breaking release. He also argued that the language is widely used. It has been for a couple of years. And so it should be a 1.0, because that signals that it is ready to be used. In fact, when 1.0 was released, we never signaled. 0.1 was released. We never signaled that it's ready for usage. But the nature of blockchain, people just start to use it. And it's there. It's always going to be there. But also the team had some concerns about this 1.0 stuff. Basically, we have the impression that 1.0 kind of implies that we have to have a long-term maintenance of that version. We have to add new features, non-breaking features, and all kind of changes. And if we still want to do breaking changes, that's going to be like 2.0. And then suddenly, we have to maintain two versions. Or we're not going to make breaking releases. So that is the reason we wanted to avoid going to 1.0. I'm not sure how many of you actually know how the versioning system works. Do you want to give hands on, are you a developer, first of all? So many of you, are you using Solidity? Are you using anything but Solidity? Not many? Any other language besides Solidity? Nice. So I think you should be aware how this versioning system works. We wanted the impression that it is semantic versioning. Turned out it is not. Because anything below the major 1, so major 0, is a breaking change. However, we did assume that the three numbers in the version is major, minor, patch. And we assumed that if we bumped the minor, that is a breaking release. If we bumped the patch, that is a non-breaking release. So it's not actually in conformance with semantic versioning, but it kind of works for us. Here's just an example how this would look like. And now suddenly, once we know what 1.0 could mean, maybe we should talk about how could we get there. Here's an example contract with the latest release. This is actually the Solidity socks contract, which is on main app. You can use it to mint socks, both the land and the right-hand side. If you're lucky, you can mint both. And I think the socks are gone at this point, but you could have gotten them a physical version of the sock at the Solidity stand, I think, on the floor above. I'm not sure. Now, this is 0.817. It says 1.0. Do you see any change? Yeah. I kind of think that actually for the users, you're not going to see too many changes at 1.0. You may actually have some changes. OK, so that was the non-changed version. Is this skipping one? OK, this is a non-changed version. And this has a few changes. They're not important. Yeah. Where is it? Like this stuff, this stuff. None of this is agreed on, but they may be tiny changes, but I don't think they're going to be big changes.  I listed a few things on what you would be able to expect in libraries. We should have operators and literates for user-defined types, center library generics, enum data types. I just gave you a few examples now. But actually, Daniel from the Solidity team had an extremely good talk, which you should watch. And I'm going to share the QR code for the video as well. Here is an example of user-defined operators. I cannot say that I actually like the syntax, but the team kind of agreed on it. So without TIS, you have to use the usual function chaining. But once you have user-defined operators, what you can expect, you can just use them fairly easily. So I think the team kind of agreed that this is going to be a focused project. And I believe this is needed for 1.0. Another major thing is the center library, which we have been talking about for years. And the main goal of the center library is to move out the majority of the compiler code into Solidity itself. But it is also a really good exercise doing it because it shows us what kind of language features are missing. So here's one example. This actually doesn't require anything major. The only thing it requires is this pragma standard lib. And what it does, it just disables the built-in functions. Because if you don't have this pragma standard lib, this function definition is going to fail because there's already a SHA-256 implicitly in the language. If you have this, it's not going to be there, so you can define it. This is a simplest example in the center library, and this works. Doing anything more complicated going to require a lot of language changes. Here's one example of what we will require for the language changes. It is just generics. This is an extremely old example. And in fact, I copied this example from my talk from two years ago from the Solidity Summit. You're already seeing the same things back then. So now I'm going to go any further. If you want to take a photo of the QR code, this is the talk from Daniel. It is a full 30-minute talk, and it did a really good job at explaining the reasoning behind these features. And how are you going to work? Again, I'm taking a tiny break. These were the changes the team wants, and the team agrees on. But I kind of want to ask you, all of you, to look at the repository. These are all the issues tag language design. And we have 237 issues open. Those are the issues people want as a feature. And I think many of them actually are kind of obsolete at this point. But I ask you to look at this repository, look at all of these issues, or a tiny subset of them, find something what you like, and leave a comment if you want to have it, or leave a comment if you think it is a bad idea. Besides these features that the team wants, I think it would be nice to know what you guys actually want. So I think that's what 1.0 is going to be like. Not many visible changes for the user side, if you're just writing a token contract, NFC contract, et cetera. But if you're writing libraries, it's going to be entirely different.  And we haven't actually talked about this for a couple of months at this point on and off. And actually, 2.0 is two different things. And it has been super confusing the team even talking about it, because some people meant one or the other. And I just want to highlight it again. Nothing is decided here. A lot of this is just my idea of what I want to have. But I hope some of this is going to happen. So first I'm going to talk about this compiler rewrite, which sounds crazy, right? How many of you actually know the compiler? How does the compiler work? Or a compiler in general? Not many of you. Basically, a compiler has multiple stages. We take the source code. We process the source code into some internal representation. We do a lot of different analysis on that representation. Once we are happy with the code, that it is sound, that it works, we are generating some kind of a next stage. In the first version of the compiler, this generation was directly into EVM. In the current stage, we still have this, but we also have a second pipeline, where instead of directly generating to EVM, we generate to Yule, which is our intermediate language. But you must be familiar with Yule, because it is a line assembly, basically. And then we take Yule and generate EVM bytecode. So that is the pipeline. And then these are the different libraries we have in the compiler itself. This one is just really tiny helpers. I'm going to move to the other side. So these are just helpers used by the others. The assembler is kind of separate. It's standalone. It takes in a data structure, like the representation of the assembler source code you want to assemble. It generates EVM bytecode, but it also has optimization steps. Then we have this separate helper for language utilities, but it's really just helpers for the parsers, because we have two different parsers. We have the solidity parser and the Yule. So Lang Yutiles is used by both of these. The lib Yule has a parser, has a code gen, has another kind of optimizer. And lip solidity is a big one. It's a monster. It is the solidity parser, does all the analysis I mentioned, and does these two different pipelines for code generation. And then we have two smaller libraries. The SMT library is just for the SMT subsystem. But I think that that is also split up. So some of it is here. Some of it is in this lip solidity directory. And then lastly, the smallest one is lipsolc, which is a tiny binding. That is the only library which is C, has a C API. Everything else is C++. So this basically is a wrapper between C and C++. And that is what is compiled to M script and into JavaScript. If you happen to use any kind of web app that's has solidity, it would be used. I listed a few issues and maybe some benefits as well. But one of the bigger problems we are getting into is these libraries, while physically separated to different directories, they may not be super well separated conceptually, or even interface-wise. One example I can give, which is a kind of hit, it's not like a logical issue in there. It's more like just a source code issue. But we have a loop between libU, libEvmASM, and the frontend. They are interdependent on each other. We're just kind of bad if you want to separate these things nicely. Major components, they do have some kind of a clear boundary. But everything is in C++. The clearest external boundary happens in two places. The assembler has a JSON import and export feature. The export feature has been there forever. The import feature is still not merged, but it kind of works. And then solidity itself has this JSON ASD import export. I think some tools like Scribble may be using it. Basically, you can skip the parser. No, Scribble uses a TypeScript parser. But yeah, we wanted people to use it. Some people use it, but they ended up not using it at the end. But the main issue I kind of see here, all of this is C++, which is kind of hard to integrate with other kind of languages. It is hard to integrate with JavaScript. We have this M script layer, and we have the C wrapper. It is hard to integrate with Rust. You need a C layer as well. Although Rust does have a C++ binding generator, it is not really stable. If you want to integrate this into Go, it's the same case. All of the languages, they only work with C. They don't work with C++. So I have a few ideas how could we resolve this. And first of all, we want to just improve the separation of these libraries. We want to have clean interfaces between them. And maybe reduce the number of C++ features that the interface are using to make them more compatible with C. Then parallel to this, because this can happen on the existing code base, parallel to this, we could start working on components in Rust. And we, in fact, already have components in Rust. We have source Rust, which is used by Faye, actually. And I think at some point, Fandry used it, but they were annoyed by the size of the binary and completion pipeline. Said that they're not using it anymore.  And some people in the team now are working on some crazy features on top of it. The first useful step could be rewriting the assembler. And the reason behind this is the assembler is one of the oldest components we actually never changed. The parser itself has been mostly rewritten, or at least significantly improved. I think the type system, that is also kind of old, but it had more maintenance. But the assembler, that is the oldest component which has never been significantly improved on. It would be a really good task to rewrite it. And by rewriting it, it may not even need to be rewritten by us, but we could use an existing assembler. And in fact, ETK, the EVM toolkit, EVM assembler toolkit, I don't know what the acronym is for. But it is an assembler toolkit, basically, for EVM. It's written in Rust. We could just use that. In any case, once we have some of these components, we could think about creating a compiler skeleton. So basically, just the driver, which drives the completion process. And this doesn't mean that we would need to rewrite the compiler. All we would need to do is provide Rust bindings to some of those components, and then have this driver which just uses those components. And once this works, we could swap out parts of those components, for example, the assembler, because they are just components. And once this would be working, the biggest change would be actually doing a major rewrite of the frontend in Rust. And by the frontend, I mean mostly the parser, the analysis, the type system, et cetera, and, well, the code generation as well. That is an insane project. And why would you want to do that? Well, you likely don't want to do it for 1.0, but you want to do it for something else. So what is the reasoning behind all of this? The main reason is that we kind of, or at least me, want to turn solidity, all this code, into a usable compiler framework. I want to make sure that all the optimization steps we have, all of these features, they're not just wasted, they're not just there for solidity, but they can be used by other languages. Imagine if we would have had like this compiler framework early on, akin to like LLVM for EVM, how long would it have taken for Faye to come to fruition, or like for any of these other languages if you could just use any of these components? I listed a bunch of different projects which are already in the EVM space working on Rust compiler components. So of course, we have Faye. We have the two other solidity compilers slash parsers. So Solang is a full-featured compiler from solidity to WebAssembly targets. Well, actually, LLVM targets, they started with WebAssembly, but they also support like BPF, like Solana, and a bunch of other targets. One thing they don't support is EVM. And in fact, Solang, I believe, is used by Foundry for parsing solidity because it's in Rust. So they're not using solidity, solidity. S-Lang is a project by HardHead. They're trying to write a compiler as well. The motivation is slightly different. They want to have a parser which is flexible and supports every single version of solidity because they don't want to survive the compiler mid compilation. And that's the problem with the current compiler. It only supports a single version. So why would we want to do this? Because I want to attract more people to solidity compiler development. And it seems like C++ is not like a language people like or people are interested in. It has been kind of hard to attract people to write C++ code. It seems like Rust is extremely thriving. Every other project is in Rust. I've been using Rust for a long time, so I would be happy for this to happen. And if we do some kind of a re-architecting like this, that would mean that we have an opportunity to actually improve the architecture of the compiler and maybe improve the language itself. So that is the next one I'm going to talk about is what kind of language could we have here? You will be surprised or not. But the fact is, we have been talking about like this Rust inspired changes to the language since 2019. Way before some of these other Rust inspired EVM languages came about. Oh, it's actually another slide. I think the main motivations, the main reasons those discussions were started because there are a few issues in solidity itself. Or at least a few issues, I think, should be addressed. One of them is really the storage and the implementation itself is not really separated. So the other thing we have right now is this contract. It can have storage defined anywhere. It can have functions defined anywhere. It can inherit other contracts, which also define storage and functions anywhere. And you never know where storage is. It could be handled by any of these imported libraries. It would be nice to actually make this more clear. The other thing would be nice to kind of make clear when state changes or state access can happen. We do have some of this in the language today. We have payable, we have view and pure functions. But that's about it. It would be nice to you to have more clarity even within the functions when is a state change taking place. Functions can be quite long. I think good code basis started to create small helpers and limit the scope of state changes to those smaller helpers. But it's still, people can write, no matter what you do, people can write really bad code. But in solidity, especially, people can write giant pieces of coding. It would be nice to have clear view where is state access or state modification taking place. And lastly, if we take such a big step, we could even consider removing inheritance or looking at a different way of composing the source code. And in fact, if we have more clear control about the storage, maybe we also have more clear control of a storage layout, which has been a really annoying question. And I know many of you have open issues. How can we set slot numbers, et cetera? Some older contracts have these padding, storage items. It's insane. Now finally, what could it look like? So here's an example. I'm not sure if any of you recognize this. It looks like rust, but more specifically. No, it's not sway. It's fey. This is actually fey. And they started to basically do all these steps we were discussing, which means having a context, which is like a clear separation of state access. OK, this is what's on the website. But yeah, this is another one, which is nice. Not having special contracts, rather have it tied into state access. And I think they're also changing it from having a contract and all these things to having separate pieces. Now, here's a real example of what we discussed under rust solidity. Do you have a separation of, this could be contract, could be struct, people leaning towards struct. So this would be really just the data. And then that would be the implementation. I mean, it's not too different to what fey is trying to do now. And this is the stock contract I had as an example before. Yeah, I mean, that's it really. I only have 10 seconds left. Thank you. I guess we can take one question if somebody has a question. Please raise your hand so that the mic can find you. Hey, Alex. So just a simple question. You were talking a lot about rust. But have you guys give a talk to the carbon? That's like the new language that they are going to upgrade C++. So which language? Carbon. It's interoptable, so you guys could reuse. Oh, yeah, the new C++, right? Yeah, that's experimental, yeah. Guys would be able to use everything that's written so far. I'm not sure what benefit that would bring. It's worth a thought. Yeah, I don't think we had a look, but we heard about it. Unfortunately, time's up. But thank you so much, Alex.
