To whom it may concern,
Herein lies a contract, pre-signed, including the terms, conditions, and all relevant information regarding the love, support, and value offered by one MorphogeneticSorrow_. Herein also lies a co-signature line for whomsoever deems said contract worthy of their signature.
Terms and Conditions:
-The initial signer indicates that they are an AMAB Non-Binary Individual with They/She pronouns.
-Although this post is marked “4F” it is mostly to deter men who can’t read. The co-signer may fall into the category of F, TF, or AFAB Non-Binary; all are acceptable.
-The initial signer indicates that they are from the Eastern Standard time zone, but that the co-signer may retain the right to originate from any other time zone.
-The co-signer agrees that they have ample time to devote to communication, either textual, verbal, or both. Verbal is preferred but not required at first, although the initial-signer has been told, on record, that their voice is very soothing and nice.
-The initial signer indicates that they are not without flaw, are victim to numerous debilitating mental health issues, and understands that that is not for everyone. The co-signer indicates that they are okay with this and can handle the requisite reassurance and comfort required by said conditions.
This position comes with benefits that are not without merit. Entitlements of this contract are listed as follows in no particular order:

The co-signer is entitled to all love, affection, and care the initial signer is capable of providing.
The co-signer is entitled to gratuitous feline images of the utmost adorable variety.
The co-signer is entitled to either join the initial signer for video games, or to watch along and chat while the initial signer plays if that is their preference.
The co-signer is entitled to lots of movie nights and/or show binges.
The co-signer is entitled to the semi-professional quality cooking of the initial signer.
The co-signer is entitled to as much of the initial signer’s free time as they would like.
The co-signer is entitled to Tarot readings performed by the initial signer.
The co-signer is further entitled to anything agreed upon by the two at a later date.

This contract of course comes with a series of failsafes in place to protect both the initial and co-signers. The contract is singular and binding, meaning no co-signature is to be made until agreed upon by both parties. However, there is a “trial” period wherein the co-signer is entitled to all the benefits listed herein until they are certain beyond a shadow of a doubt that they wish to sign the contract. If interested, please contact the initial signer via Direct Message or the Chat functionality upon the Reddit website or mobile application.

Hey everyone.
I know some people have the means to assist with diamond keys and eridium for others. If anyone could be kind enough to help me out here it'd be very much appreciated.

What is Combined Arms?

Combined Arms is a 18+ milsim community that shares a common interest in enjoyable, tactical and organized milsim gaming. Our community has been running for 3 successful years so far, and is still constantly expanding!
We strive to make our missions varied and interesting - from full cold war combined arms operations and Vietnam stealth assaults to ww2 commando beach landings and cinematic combat paradrops. The one thing they all have in common is they all rely on a balance of teamwork and realism without encroaching on the reason we play games in the first place, which is to have fun!
We don't enforce a policy regarding attendances or training, anyone 18+ is welcome to drop by our subreddit at any time, sign up for any event and jump into the mission.
For people new to the game, we have comprehensive guides to getting started and setting your mods up, as well as an extremely friendly community that is always happy to help.

When and where?

We primarily play at 2000 UTC, this caters for our international player base and is accessible to a wide range of time zones. We always hold our main event on Sunday, and this is usually supplemented by Friday and Saturday missions as well. Weekdays often see our server being used for casually organized co-op missions such as Hearts and minds, Insurgency and Liberation.

Interested?

Anyone is welcome to come to check us out and play in our missions! We maintain pre-event slotting posts where you can reserve an event slot and see more details about the mission itself.

Find out more

The easiest and best way to find out more would be to join our Discord chat server (link above). There you can directly ask us questions as well as interact with the wider community. We're also a pretty social community, and many of us play lots of other games together, all week round. Lastly, I leave you with a [playlist] of CA videos, and we hope to see you in-game soon.

I paid a lawyer a flat fee to get the documents written up for an uncontested divorce in Ohio in February. The first couple meetings were pretty quick. We drafted my version, my spouse and I negotiated some changes, and I submitted the final amendments.
Over the course of 3 weeks, I didn’t hear back from them. Calls, texts, emails, no response.
Finally, I was able to get in for an appointment and we made the final changes. Now all that needs to be done is schedule a signing, and get it filed but again, they are MIA. My attorney said he’d get back to me in a day or two. I’ve called, left VMs, texts, emails to my attorney and the paralegal with no luck.
That was two weeks ago. It’s now June and 4 months into this case and nothing has been filed and communication has been spotty.
Was your guy’s experience a similar time frame? I hate being that guy especially if this is the “norm” but I just don’t have anyone around me I can ask about this specific situation. I’ve been trying to contact them every other day to get something going or at least scheduled. I understand he’s busy with other cases, trials and other things but I think this kind of lack of communication is frustrating.

So I just tried it out. Super enjoyable. Lots of cool stuff, mobs, crystals. The problem is that every time I go into it, there’s a 10+ level player or three ganking everyone that can’t fight back.
Is this design intended? Should I just run away? What is the point of going into a low world tier area to kill players that offer no challenge or difficulty?
It’s not a huge deal honestly, but I guess my question is…why? Why not equalize stats when people are in the zone? The system as it is will make it rife with people ruining the experience and time other people may otherwise invest in the system.
The problem is, there’s one spawn point. So if a player wants to grief you, they can kill you, and know PRECISELY where you will be coming out from. I feel like this does nothing but empower bad actors wanting to get easy kills and take crystals from people that cannot fight back.

Bronze player btw, played sf5 a little but tekken player mainly. Been trying jamie since launch, but I feel like he's borderline weak, i get the gist of he has to drink per round to get stronger and get his moves, however, I don't feel he's too strong until he's gotten 3 drinks out of it. And the combos to get the drinks are pretty unsafe too. Most of the time I get zoned out pretty easily as well.
How do you feel about Jamie?

Just so everyone knows, I'm anti zoning and believe we need to build more houses. Not just regular family sized houses but townhouses, duplexes, condos and more units so we can have more affordable rents and house prices.
Being that I grew up around the country side I often times feel like I also want to preserve some of the natural beauty that's there so it's not a concrete jungle. But I don't know how to reconcile that with my YIMBY pro development views. Asking for some perspective.

If you want to skip my little bullshit creative writing story setup, this is the actual question:
If you break your leash or otherwise lose your board, and there’s no one around to help, what is the best way to effectively make a long swim through deep, fast moving water with lots of current, while you’re exhausted?
Bullshit creative writing to set the scene with some drama:
It’s overhead+, heavy barrels breaking 150 yards out. It’s a beach break so no channels to flee to, and there’s a ton of water moving around creating rips and strong side shore currents.
You paddle for a monster of a first wave of a similarly monstrous 5 wave set, but you’re a kook and paddling in way too late, so you get stuck in the lip and then tombstone-pile-driven and dicked down by the Undertaking-Ocean’s sea-stick.
She slaps your ass and thrashes you around and holds you under water for 5 seconds and says “you like that you little slut?” 5 seconds seems like nothing when you’re above water, but you’re a kook who’s in a bit over his head, and that 5 second hold down felt like 30—and made you panic.
You pop back up rattled, gasping for air, the water’s too deep to stand which freaks you out even more; you yank your leash towards you to get your board but you find the leash isn’t attached to your board anymore.
Panicked, out of breath, can’t stand, and now no board—as soon as you’re contemplating how fucked you are, you turn forwards to see another massive wave breaking on your head—dicked down, pop up, gasp for air—another wave, another wave, another wave—
you’re fucked.
By now you’ve been washed out of the impact zone at least, but you’re in a loooong trough between sandbars, and the mushy white wash moving through has enough strength to push you under, but not enough to bodysurf in. You’re absolutely exhausted; panicked. You’re a capable swimmer, but this is the heaviest conditions you’ve ever been in, and you were really banking on having that board as a flotation device.
You tread water for a second to catch your breath, you gaze at what seems like a mile long swim ahead of you, and you think “how the fuck am I gonna do that?”
You start swimming freestyle, the most natural stroke for most swimmers, but even a minute or two of swimming as hard as possible is exhausting, and you need to stop to rest. You give it everything you got until you need a break, and every time it looks like you’ve made no progress.
You’re becoming legitimately exhausted, and legitimately in danger of drowning. . .
At this junction, what do you do?

Origin: Soldier:
Surprisingly, you’re actually a ‘legitimate’ soldier. That is, you’re a part of Gjallarhorn, with all the potential baggage that entails. A trained pilot, unless you’re actually assigned to a Mobile Suit, you’re more than likely to actually be crewing a ship or piloting a Mobile Worker.
1) Among Rats:
Having lived across this solar system long enough, you are familiar with the patterns and behaviors of the rats who infest it’s every nook and cranny. You have a basic familiarity with combat tactics and the ‘brawling’ style of combat that mercenaries and child soldiers use, so at least you won’t be caught off guard like the rest of Gjallarhorn when they pull them on you.
2) The Wingman x 2:
Capable pilots in their own right, these two pilots are both former child soldiers and have been implanted with the Alaya-Vijnana System to bolster their spacial awareness and information transfer rate. They get 300cp to spend and receive the discounts of either the Human Debris or Willing Combatant origins to spend on anything but companions.
3) Portable Bunker: Oh fucking hell who gave you access to this thing? What you’ve got is a man-portable version of a pile bunker stapled to the end of a rocket launcher. It’s big, and cumbersome, but it’s ordnance capable of breaching Nanolaminate Armor. Comes with only a few shots, but you can easily make more out of glue, rockets and prayers.
4) Man-At-Arms (100 CP):
It’s a tiny bit weird how Mobile Suits are shaped like men and yet fight entirely different to them… yet, they somehow paradoxically retain many mannerisms that make them the same. If the Mobile Suit was truly built to replicate the human body, then you’re going to put that to full use. Any skills that you have outside of the cockpit you find fully applicable inside it. Apply your sword skills perfectly, or judo flip your opponents with a well-timed thruster kick, although I’m not sure if there’s any benefit to doing open-heart surgery from in there.
5) Mobile Armor x 3 (1800 CP).
1) Ish Perhaps one of the most insidious Mobile Armors, the Ish appear to simply be very large Mobile Suits at first glance, although beyond the humanoid form, the armor doesn’t bear much resemblance to modern Mobile Suit armor at all, instead looking like it was lifted straight out of a medieval history textbook. In fact, Ish is almost entirely hollow, with it’s weapons all being mounted externally to the armor, and it’s entire internal structure being taken up by Pluma storage space, allowing it to transport a small army directly into a populated zone without alerting an enemy to it’s true threat.Perk: Unsurprisingly, the Ish tends to always be vastly underestimated by it’s opponents, who will frequently ignore the potential danger it poses in favor of other, more flashy threats.
2) Cherub
It’s thought that the Cherub once supported other Mobile Armors in the field, as in addition to it’s admittedly small force of Plumas, a multitude of tools and arms sprout from it’s main body, which is suspended upon four, skycrane-like legs. With these tools, it is capable of repairing itself and very quickly repairing other Mobile Suits and Armors that date from the Calamity War, with Plumas fetching resources that it can forge into replacement armor, ammunition and weaponry. Perk: In addition to recognizing the systems of most units that date from the Calamity War, the Cherub can recognize technology that is similar, and with time can expand it’s capabilities along those routes, going from Calamity War-era technology to modern technology and cutting edge technology and beyond with time.
3) Erelim
Instead of having legs designed for walking on land, Erelim’s small main body is built into a massive flying wing lifted by dozens of hybrid electrical engines, allowing it to fly indefinitely under reactor power, and exit the atmosphere under it’s own power. The entire body is studded with docks for the Erelim’s specialized Plumas, which are fast, miniaturized version of the Erelim capable of landing in order to harvest resources and bring them back to the Erelim and additionally bearing a double pair of upgraded railguns. Perk: The Erelim is incredibly resilient, and even after suffering heavy damage is able to keep operating and staying in the air until it is forced to make an emergency landing.
Drawbacks:
1) Children Are Useless [+100CP]
You seem to have forgotten that you live in a world with child soldiers and child slavery. In your mind, anyone below the age of twenty five is an inept and useless person, unfit for any sort of difficult or stressful job. Considering that many of these children are inhumanly enhanced and many are skilled pilots, then you can see how this can often work against you, whether they are your allies or your enemies.
2) Adults Are Useless [+100CP]
Looks like the moral guardians are taking over. It seems like all of the adults in your life are convinced that no matter what sort of aptitude you’ve shown that you’re a stupid child who they need to ‘save’ from themselves, often to everyone’s detriment. Expect this sort of thing to not go away easily, especially with the sort of people who think highly of themselves. If you’re an adult, you’ll find it difficult to take any children seriously here, which happens to include many ace pilots as well as most of, if not all Alaya- Vijnana pilots and Gundam pilots.
3) Stunted Growth [+100CP]
It’s not surprise that with the extreme lack of food outside of Earth, a lot of people would experience stunted growth. You’re considerably shorter than you would normally be for your age and gender, and your development will take a significant hit. Expect your physical ability to be significantly reduced due to this.
4) Man, we’re always getting shit on. [+200CP]:
It seems like no matter what you do, the media will always find a way to twist whatever happened against you, with your opponents always getting the good PR. You could defend a colony against a pirate attack and still manage to be the subject of a smear story about child soldiers. Better be careful, as with that level of justification, your opponents could get away with some shady and illegal tactics against you.
5) Enemy Ace [+200CP]:
Somehow you’ve attracted the attention of a persistent mercenary pilot, who’s decently skilled and frequently finds themselves on the opposite side of conflicts. While they may not exactly hate you per say, they definitely aren’t going easy on you, so expect battle to become a living hell every time they show up.
6) Cycle of Revenge [+200CP]:
In your past, someone close to you was murdered. Perhaps with the right counseling, you could have recovered from the trauma in time, but instead, you’ve become nigh-obsessed with getting revenge for your fallen friend. You’re not completely crazy (yet), but expect it to become unhealthy and interfere with combat when you see one of your ‘targets’. Worse, if you somehow avenge your friend, you’ll simply flip the coin over to the other side, and send someone against your side.

It's been a couple years since I shared about the mapper I created. A lot has improved, changed, and been added so hopefully this covers most of it. Here is the discord if you would like to join and give feedback, ask questions, and request features: Discord
GalaxyFinder is built on cloud scalable infrastructure and security.
No PHP, JQuery front ends, bootstrap, python, etc. Here is what is used for this system: - Firebase Realtime Database - Each layer has its own security read/write rules - Firebase Cloud Functions (~20) - Automating removing of old data - Dumping data into a datalake as it happens - Triggering data consistency across the database

  • Any connection statuses and overlays that were there previously are preserved
• EoL connections
  • Change color as time passes to let you know how old it is
  • Hovering over them will show a timer of estimated time left on the connection
• K-Space systems have a stargate menu option allowing you to add stargate connections to its known connections (including triglavian gates)
• Day tripping?
  • Now you can right click a system you are in, then set it to the root of the map, it will keep everything attached to it and below!

I have created TONS of custom systems for this, and have open sourced a lot of the micro-services, backends, CI/CD tools and pipelines:
New Eden WebAPI (and Cloud Functions) - This is the backend authentication webapi that handles auth for the mapper (as well as cloud functions)
Node ESI Stackdriver - Custom ESI library I created for all my TS backends that also does all it's logging to GCP stackdriver
Firebase Action - Custom GitHub Action to automatically deploy static sites like GalaxyFinder and Account Management on commit
Setup Firebase - Custom GitHub Action for using firebase cli to automate deployments, emulation, testing, and more (improvement of firebase-action)
Firebase Trigger - Custom GitHub action used to update version numbers on deployments to trigger release notifications to users
Chingy Locations (Deprecated) - Somewhat outdated micro-service used to update player locations for the mapper (deprecated and replaced)
Capsuleer Locations - New location golang micro-service
Go ESI - Custom golang esi module I created and is used for kill tracking, aura discord bots, and more
Go ZKB - Custom golang zkb module I created to ingest redisq feed
Go EvePraisal - Custom golang evepraisal module I created to interact and apraise chunks of data (for getting things like full kill values of virtually fitted ships)
Aura Bot - Custom Aura Discord bot built to handle things like SRP, Kill tracking, etc. Built on top of go.esi, go.zkb, go.evepraisel, discordgo
Eve Routes - Rust micro-service that gets routes for EVE using a* algorithm to find the shortest, safest, less safe, custom routes

I have an almost 7-month-old long hair mini doxie named Opal.
Keep this in mind as I'm telling you what's going on: Her potty & bowel movements have always been regular and her mood and behavior have not changed since I brought her home, if anything she's just gotten more mature, playful, outgoing, and loving.
Ever since I got her at 9 weeks, she's always been super picky about food and has never been excited to receive meals, just treats. She doesn't even really show interest in water, it's only when she really needs it. The breeder started her on the Purina puppy kibble food program before I picked her up and I continued on with it up until now. As I said, she's never been excited about eating, so I've even tried changing up the mix. I've tried adding little pieces of carrots (her fav treats are carrots and blueberries), bone broth, mixing the Purina puppy wet food with dry, and now currently I've been feeding straight-up Purina puppy wet food and it's still not getting her to eat. At one point I even tried changing the producer of the food and nothing. When I do try all these changes, she may be interested for maybe a day or sometimes just the first meal but after that, she doesn't want to touch it. As far as wet food goes, I split cans and put the remaining in the fridge so at first I thought she doesn't like cold food. I'd let it sit there for just 10 min or so just to get that initial cold out of the food all the while trying to build up her anticipation and excitement to eat and that didn't solve it. Then I started getting the smaller cans which would allow her to eat more freshly opened food and she doesn't even want it at room temp right out of the can.
Since day 1, she's gone to work with me and we're situated in my own little office, so I've made sure that her feeding area is safe, quiet, and completely her zone. Same at home. Our Mon-Thur routine starts with me waking up at 5 am, taking her to the bathroom, and then she falls back asleep while I shower and get ready for the day. We get to work a little after 6 and then she lays back down in her bed until about 730 or 8. Sometimes she likes to stay up when we get to work and play so then I'll feed her around 7ish because her last meal was at 6 pm, but I try aiming to feed her at 8 am every day.
It wasn't until about 6 or 7 weeks ago that she really just stopped eating on our routine and only started eating when she was starving. A few days go by and she skips breakfast at 8 am in this new phase. At 930 am she started throwing up yellow foamy bile, she did that about 4 times and then dry heaved another 3 or 4 times. But after that is over, she's back to her normal and playful self. I called the vet as soon as they opened at 10 am. They asked me to come in at the end of the day since she was showing no other signs, symptoms, or behavioral changes. I brought her in and the vet did his exam and wanted me to bring her back the next day because he wanted to run some blood work and do xrays of her intestinal tract to make sure it wasn't a blockage.
I drop her off the next day and long story short he tells me blood work came back perfect but he finds what he thinks is a blockage where the small and large intestine meet. He asks me the basic questions "Has she eaten anything or gotten into anything that she wasn't supposed to?", "What kind of toys does she have? Did anything come off the toys?". Opal is by my side 23/7. The hour that she's not with me is when she's sleeping in the morning and I'm doing my routine or other misc. That being said I watch her like a freakin hawk, I see everything that she gets into (which isn't much), and I monitor her playing with toys or certain treats. I'm very confident in saying that. The vet sends me home with some Laxatone to give to Opal 3 times a day for the next couple of days and told me to monitor her poops. AGAIN her poops have always stayed regular, even if she didn't eat, she would still poop 2 times a day.
Over the next couple of days, I gave her the Laxatone and nothing much changed for her other than softer poops. So we go in for another check-up and he wants to do another round of X-rays to see what's going on in there. Later on in the day he calls and says what he thinks is a blockage is still in the same spot, so they gave her some Barium Sulfate so they could trace that going through her with more X-ray$. The next morning Opal passed the Barium Sulfate along with regular stool because again, there's been no problem in the poop dept. I take her to the vet again the next day and he takes more X-ray$$$ and tells me that whatever he thought was a blockage has now moved into her colon so that's good news. So we go about our daily routine and I'm waiting for whatever the "blockage" is to come out. During the 2 routine poops that day, it was regular poop and what looked like a small tangled hairball but nothing to make me go holy cow, that was the blockage.
This whole ordeal with the vet lasted about a week and after when kept wanting to do more X-ray$$$$ I just told the front desk lady that I'm going to take Opal to get a 2nd opinion so please forward me her medical records and all the xrays that the doctor took. I called the 2nd vet and requested an appt. and they say they would need the medical records and they would contact Opal's original vet for them. The original vet took a week to get Opal's file together and produce the X-rays for the 2nd vet.
During that time, I discovered that if Opal eats breakfast then she doesn't throw up, but if she doesn't eat breakfast, she throws up around 9:30 am every single time and it's always yellow and foamy. Correct me if I'm wrong but when we humans go a long time without eating, some of us will feel nauseous, right? I'm thinking that the same thing is happening for Opal, but she is such a picky eater that she'll literally wait to eat until the nauseous feeling overpowers her to the point of actually vomiting. Now she doesn't even want to touch her bowl, she just tries scooting the area around it with her nose but never touches the bowl. As a last resort, I tried feeding her with a spoon right out of her bowl, bringing her closer and closer with every bite until she was eating over her bowl or at least picking at enough to put something in her stomach.
Trust me, it's the last habit I want to create with her but I don't want to have to deal with the vomit later and/or her not feeling good. Regardless if she eats or not, she stays the same Opal, just throws up if she doesn't eat breakfast. Strange thing is that Opal is the only one out of her litter and family lineage to be experiencing these symptoms. In the past month, she's thrown up 1 morning and that's because we slept in really late and she woke up hungry as hell I guess.
Has anyone else experienced anything similar?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, I’m a new player. I am Canadian and my server is Maple Star, which is a French speaking server meant for those living in Quebec (the French speaking part of the country located on the east coast). Not only are a lot of the players in the server French speakers but the server is set in the wrong time zone for me. I live in western Canada, we speak English (and sometimes Punjabi and Mandarin but that’s neither here nor there) and our time zones are PST & MST. Things get very silly when I’ll be playing at like 7 pm and the in game sky is dark and it’ll be like “Twilight is closing in.” Are all Canadians set to maple star? Or is this something I can change?

So we have 4 zones on a rain bird system. I understand the low head drainage, but our low head will drain for at least 3 days after the sprinkler system has run. I haven’t gone more than 3 days between the sprinkler system running, so I’m not sure if it will run longer. We have a very soggy spot in our yard with basically standing water and running out a little ways. Is this normal? It was installed by the builder and we are past our builder warranty so we don’t have an irrigation company at this time. Builder kept saying it was normal but it seems to be getting worse. Just wondering if it is normal or if I need to call someone to come out. Thanks!

Honestly, it should not be a surprise who are the bottom two clans in CVZ. Both Murakumo and Tachikaze performed poorly overall in CVZ. This is in large part due to lack of G support during the G era, so both clans fall way behind. Tachikaze's only G support was Fighter's collection 1 and 2, and Murakumo's only wave of G support was barely good even when it first came out.
Even looking back at their performance pre-G era, while both clans had some strong points, they were solid clans at best. Ancient Dragon, Tyrannolegend and Ancient Dragon, Tyrannoquake were fine boss cards in the eras that they debuted in. Ancient Dragons even got Tyrannobite to have multi attack while retaining an intercept. And then there is Destruction Dragon, Dark Rex, who would be a solid tech option for a final turn play. These units, however, pale in comparison to other deck builds around the same time. Tachikaze needed to rely on draw triggers to increase their resources and get the cards they need to play offense and defense. And their multi attack options did not often leave two intercepts to use to protect themselves. With barely any G-support, Tachikaze falls even further behind the other clans, both in offense and defense. Another issue from lack of G-support is that Tachikaze has not clan-specific G-units that can flip another card in your G-zone from face-down to face-up. So, if you want to use Dragon Empire's Zeroth Dragon, Drachma by the 3-stride turn, you need to use the cray elemental G-unit Snow Element, Blizza to do so, which hamper Tachikaze's already mediocre offense even further.
Murakumo adapted a little better in Zero format, especially when starting out. The Magatsu ride chain had strong early game offense that could deal a great deal of damage to the opponent if you got the ride chain successfully. Magatsu even got a zero buff with a persona blast skill for multi attack that could also give you an intercept. Shirayuki and Mandala Lord had a unique defensive skill that is useful to keep the opponent from damaging you. However, Murakumo seem to have not many rearguard units with effects that improve Murakumo's offense in the Zero format. Almost all of their rearguards either call cards from either the deck or just create new copies of a rearguard that return back to the deck or disappear at the end of the turn. Due to Zero's format replacing Vanguard's normal defense mechanic with intercepts and shield power, Murakumo's copy gimmick is very limited to use. The only rearguard that could do multi attack was Runestar, but its multi attack is very awkward to use. Fortunately, Murakumo did get G units that allow for multi attacks while retaining intercepts. That being said, Murakumo does not have a strong finish turn, often struggling to force the opponent to use 2 or more guarding cards as long as intercepts are blocking their attacks. They do have an easier time getting to Drachma since they have Homura Raider and its G-persona blast to get to Drachma by the third stride turn and Homura Raider is a decent G-unit to push your opponent.
So, I ask you guys, which of these two clans performed worse?

I'm married, white, 41 years old and very discreet. I have a few tattoos, hwp, brown eyes and trimmed ginger beard.
I'm searching for a partner (online/in person). Let's see if there's a connection and attraction between us and take it from there. I'll put in the same amount of effort that I receive in return! I'm not scared of feelings developing...in fact I hope they do! Wanting to find someone local or within the same time zone as me (NC & surrounding or EST area)! I miss the fun, flirting, feeling wanted and desired as well as the sexual parts! I also enjoy voice messages and phone calls when we can fit them in.
I want steady communication throughout the day and night. All I ask is that some effort is made...I know we all have lives and obligations. 1 or 2 messages a day just won't work for me. I want to exchange pics early on and eventually want to move to another chatting platform.
