Fort Ko'Var Briefing (Northern Mountains Front)
[This post will function as the primary info-dump and planning post for the Siege of Fort Ko'Var. Let's get to it!]

Colenel Jethro Arvin looked around the Taronian 8th Regimental Headquarters at Waycross Road, surveying the plethora of attendees both junior and senior. It was a hell of a crowd; he hoped he didn't dissapoint.
First, there was of course his own senior staff, all in physical attendence now that Major Quoke had rejoined them. Also present in-person was Lieutenant Lenore McPherson, Intelligence Officer of the Praetorian 27th, and the Valyrran Major Zero, who arrived with Major Quoke and now stood silently off to the opposite side of the room from the Taronians.
There were also a plethora of attendees tuning in via hololith; Colonel Braithwaite and General Redlina herself plus a number of other Valyrran officers, presumably representing other elements to be allocated to the siege. There was also the lone small figure of a woman in a Minthelian jumpsuit; Arvin recognized her as the young aide who had guided him when he received orders from General Redlina to detain the Minthelian Lieutenant Sophy. It felt so long ago now.
The final hololith attendee, however, Arvin did not recognize: he wore a long white coat adorned with various bits of webbing and equipment over knee-high leather boots, and a simple steel helmet with a gold Aquila on it atop his head. The man introduced himself as Colonel Lilzton, commander of Task Force Liberation, the loyalist PDF remnants to the north of the fort. Arvin hoped he would get to meet him in person some time.
But now, everyone was assembled, and it was time for Colonel Arvin to begin his briefing.
"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for attending this briefing. We have a lot to get through, so I'll begin without delay..."

INTRODUCTION:
Covering an surface area of about 12.5 square kilometers, Fort Ko'Var, previously known as "Saint's Gate", serves as the primary bastion of resistance for the entirety of the northern mountains. It is carved directly out of the rock in many places, and as it's Imperial name suggests, it controls all passage along the north-south mountain road. Both the town of Kan'Shae and the base of operations for Task Force Liberation are nominally cut off to the north of the fort; for these reasons, the position must be captured if we are to secure victory in this region.

THE TERRAIN:
The geography surrounding Fort Ko'Var only makes it's capture more important. To the east and southeast lays an expanse of high peaks, jagged cliffs, and all manner of other hazardous terrain, such that getting a cohesive fighting force over it is all but impossible.
To the east and northeast lies a river which continues uninterrupted to Westbridge Lake. It is believed to have been artificially-made by the fortress's builders to achieve 2 goals: 1) to prevent the bypassing of the fort by any kind of vehicular foe simply by driving around it, and 2) to supply the defenders with a ready source of clean drinking water, as the river ends in a large pool enclosed within the fortress itself.
Thus, strategically-speaking, Fort Ko'Var is a natural chokepoint which provides the only way past these obstacles, both natural and man-made. Tactically-speaking, the ground surrounding the fort is wide open, providing little cover except for a handfull of foothills that could be used as staging grounds and observation posts.

THE ROAD:
The road which makes Fort Ko'Var so vital runs directly through the mountain in a tunnel just to the west of the bulk of the defenses; this tunnel is capped on both ends by reinforced blast doors rated to withstand at least some punishment from anything we have at our disposal, and is furthermore enclosed by 2 of the 3 defensive tiers of the fort.
We can also assume the tunnel is rigged to blow at the defenders' discretion. Should this happen, the only road connection will be through the heart of the fortress itself, as there are connections on either side of the tunnel, winding up and then down an extensive series of switchback roads that would expose any vehicle to near-endless plunging fire from above. Needless to say, simply ignoring the fort and it's occupants is not an option if we wish to use this highway.

THE TIERS:
Fort Ko'Var is comprised of 3 main defensive tiers, each partitioned by 3 heavily-fortified walls. all of these are complete with bunkers, observation towers, and massive defensive hardpoints that make them formidable obstacles for any attacker, but each also has its quirks and weaknesses that might be exploited.
The outer wall is comparable to a hive city's curtain wall, at least in construction if not in sheer thickness. It rises above the 1st, lowest defensive tier on a gentle slope; this tier is largely home to Fort Ko'Var's rank and file barracks, commodities and maintenence facilities.
The inner wall is less a true wall, and more of a permacrete-reinforced cliff that rings around the 2nd Defensive Tier. The only way up without climbing is a handful of personnel entrances and the 2 roadways, one north and one south. This tier houses the primary vehicle and equipment storage facilities, additional support infrastructure, the secondary artillery batteries, the commoner prison facilities, as well several passageways leading to the road tunnel and beyond.
Lastly, the Final Citadel is not a wall at all, but is instead a massive, adamantine-sheathed, armored plateau that sits at the very top of Fort Ko'Var, complete with countless weapons portholes, pillboxes, a partial mote, and a miniature voidshield enveloping it. Inside this last bastion is the fortress's command center, essential supplies storage, the VIP prison facilities, the majority of the fort's munitions storage capacity, and on top of it is positioned a ring of anti-aircraft emplacements as well as Fort Ko'Var's pride and joy: her primary artillery batteries.

THE ARTILLERY:
Aside from the countless other weapons systems protecting the fort, her main method of reaching out and touching her foes with extreme prejudice is, was, and always has been her artillery. These systems come in batteries of 4 weapons each, and every gun is housed in it's own 360-degree turreted bunker.
For air cover, 8 Imperial-era Hydra Flak Batteries still play a key role in protecting the fortress, but these have been further supplemented by 2 batteries of T'au-made SAM launchers. These long-range munitions are deadly to any pilot who strays anywhere near the fort's airspace, and should not be tested lightly. The Hydra batteries, meanwhile, can also be turned towards anti-personnel duties easily enough, as well.
Onto the ground-to-ground weapon systems, the local auxilia garrison will of course deploy light artillery such as mortars, but for precise, in-close bombardments that can pack real punch, Fort Ko'Var relies on it's 5 batteries of Bombast Field Cannons; I'm sure you're all familiar with that platform by now.
But for more long-range needs, Fort Ko'Var relies on its primary armament of 4 batteries of "Earthquaker" Cannons, as the locals call them. These weapons are T'au-modified, extended-range variants of the venerable Earthshaker Cannon, and rebel reports have clocked it's maximum range with a standard powder charge at about 22 kilometers, increasing to 30 when supercharged. They pack the same firepower as an Earthshaker and, from what reports we have, roughly the same accuracy margins, as well.
Put together, all of these weapons give Fort Ko'Var a potent array of long-range fires, with which it can engage both land and air targets with ease. However, there are some hints that at least 1 or 2 of the above-mentioned systems do not have the neccesary ammunition to operate optimally. The SAMs, in particular, most likely do not have a large number of missile reloads; thus, the xenos gunners may be less willing to fire valuable missiles at something they don't perceive as a threat. Pilots, take note.

OTHER INFO:
Based on rebel reports, Fort Ko'Var is normally home to about 20,000 personnel, with 15,000 in garrison and 5,000 patrolling the mountains at any given time. However, based again on the rebel intel we have, this force has a far-larger ratio of Fire Warriors to Auxilia, something like 2 T'au for every 3 Auxilia. From this we can infer that the T'au value this installation just as much as we do, and are invested in defending it.
Unfortunately I can't get much more detailed than that; with the recent retreat of T'au troops all across the north, it could be that Fort Ko'Var is operating on a skeleton crew as manpower is transferred to other sectors, or it could be that it has been heavily reinforced by units retreating there. Therefore, be on your guard and ready to respond to any possible threat, battlesuits, tanks, superheavies, you get the idea.

OTHER DETAILS:
There are a few more things of note that I must make mention of.
First off, back to that water pool. It is located right at the easternmost point of the fort in the 1st Defensive Tier; this might be a tactical weakness in their ability to get fresh water if they were pushed back to the upper tiers, but the estern tip of the Citadel also hangs out past the 2nd Tier, over this pool and extends downward [OOC: think something like the top tier Minas Tirith], enclosing a portion of the water for the final defensive tier's personal usage.
Second, there is the main landing area. While a few smaller landing pads are scattered around the 2nd and 3rd Tiers, Fort Ko'Var's primary landing area is on the northern side of the 1st Tier, both bulging outwards and making a massive indent in the 2nd tier and the Citadel. Originally being designed for Tetrarch Heavy landers, this area is big enough to land a whole squadron of Mantas simultaneously.
Lastly, there is the escape tunnel. As shown by Imperial records, Fort Ko'Var possesses a single passageway buried deep in the mountain, leading to a secret exit somewhere west or south of the fort. However, I am informed that our new-found local allies may hold the answer to it's location, in which case I believe immediate efforts should be made to cut off this last avenure for reinforcement or evacuation.

THE PLAN:
Fort Ko'Var is a stronge defensive position, but not impregnable if approached in the correct manner. Our basic battle plan is simple enough: Task Force Liberation attack from the north, while the Taronian 8th, Praetorian 27th, and elements of the Valyrran 1st attack from the south. We crush the xenos and the traitors between us, and meet in the middle. But that is, of course, more of an outline than an actual plan, and so I'd like to offer my own thoughts on the tactics to be employed.
Fort Ko'Var's 3 defensive Tiers are very different from eachother, and thus will each require a different approach. The 1st Tier has the longest perimeter to coved, and also the least defenses; therefore, we should make our first strike fast and hard, overunning this first obstacle with haste and superior firepower. This has the added benefit of showing the enemy what we are capable of; with the traitor human Auxilia's morale breaking all across Gryllus, we may yet open up further weakpoints by forcing them to accept their inevitable defeat.
The 2nd tier is... somewhat different. Carved from the rocky cliffs themselves, it will not be possible to simply breach it as you would a traditional wall, but this particular facet opens up... another avenue of attack which myself and Major Baxton have been discussing for some time. It is risky, and as of yet we are not completely sure it is pheasible, but I believe we should consider the option of tunneling into the second tier rather assaulting up it.
The Final Citadel, quite frankly, will not be possible to capture quickly, not without a significant commitment of Astartes or other specialist forces. Therefore, unless one of the above is aquired and as much as it pains me to admit it, this final stage, at least, will most likely come to a plain and simple siege. I would recommend attempts be made to negotiate the remaining garrison's surrender and attempt to avoid needlessly wasting Guardsmen lives, but I do not think that this will bear much fruit considering the likelihood of the remaining troops by this stage being predominantly T'au.

"That concludes my briefing on Fort Ko'Var; I hope to see all of you again for our inevitable victory toast in that fortress's command center." Colonel Arvin finished up. "I would also like to give my personal thanks to Colonel Lilzton and TF Liberation, as well Captains Pekala and Vanian's Rebel Companies for providing much of this information."
"Now, with all of that said, I assume you all have questions or comments to make. The floor is now open..."

About the Campaign: It is the Year of the Crow in the 11th Era. You have watched the twin suns set outside the arched window many times ever since you arrived here.

The city sits on the borderlands of Thead and Kauldane, two northern kingdoms that were once at war long ago. Yet, now these two countries are united for the sake of power and peace. For not far away are the countries Varagoth, the land of the goblinoids, and Vasgar to the south, where the vatagi dwell... a race of mutants that many call half demons.
Magic is untrusted in this world. Many blame magic and those who use it on the arrival of the Pale Plague. Necromancers, once hired by the empire during the Black Arbitration were meant to quell this pandemic. Yet, they could not stop it. For the sick were not undead, they were something else entirely. They were not able to be controlled by black magic. Now the Arbiters have been disbanded, blamed for the disease by the Aticraulian Empire, the very ones that gave them power to stop it. Now they are hunted down to be burned at the stake. It is true that magic is dangerous, but the elves believe they can control it. They believe that great things lay hidden within its mysterious secrets.
You have come here to some of the finest schools of magic in the northern lands. All manner of species dwell here, living in harmony in their quest for knowledge. You have come to the Academy of Thaumaturgical Investigation to advance your career, gain power, reputation, coin... well the rest is for you to decide. Not all of you need to be spell casters, we have plenty of jobs for you to do. For we need all the heroes we can get.

This is a module I am creating and would love to run you through it as a playtester. If you are okay with it I will use your name or alias in the publication as a playtester. There will be a questionairre to fill out so I can get to know what style of play you like and a bit about yourself. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions.

2024.05.14 22:12 jaydalogar Spoke with my ex 10 years after our breakup, this is how it went. What to do next? 32M 31F

I was with my first love for 3 and a bit years, we met in late 2010 before we broke up 10 years ago in early 2014. We were young and in our early 20s back then, things just fizzled out.
I've always thought about her but eventually we went our separate ways, she got in to a relationship with another guy after me for a few years but eventually he ended up cheating on her, this was around 2017.
After her breakup in 2017 I confessed my feelings for her but we didn't go anywhere with it as she was still healing so I told her I need to cut her off at the point because I told her I was struggling to be just friends with her, to which she said that she was heartbroken that's it come to us parting ways. But we wished each other well and went our separate ways. I was really at my lowest at that point but have come a really long way since in terms of having a successful career and have improved a lot financially and mentally.
At the start of 2019, she did add me on social media but she didn't say anything to me so a few days later I ended up deleting her because I realised I still wasn't over her, I regretted deleting her afterwards.
At the end of 2019 I heard that she was engaged, she ended up getting married but then I heard she got divorced around a year and a half ago. A few monthds ago I found out that the reason for her divorce was because her husband cheated on her and was abusive towards her. They got divorced around early 2022.
As for me I did get in to another relationship with someone else but I was also cheated on so I have been single for a few years now, I have been evolving in my career and proud of how far I've come and have recently started a new chapter in my career. I considered getting in touch with her a few months ago but I noticed that she had cut off a lot of people from her social media so I wasnt too sure how she'd react to me adding her, I thought she'd reject me seen as she's cutting off a lot of people.
So around 3 months ago I took the plunge seen as I had nothing to lose and sent her a request on instagram, and she has accepted and also followed me back. She's been viewing my stories and a month ago I posted a life quote on my story which she liked, I haven't spoke to her yet. I posted a few pictures of myself which she hasn't liked but A few weeks ago I posted a quote on my story that said 'be the reason for someone's pain to turn into a smile', she liked that quote and also another one that I posted last week. It was my birthday a few days ago and she liked a birthday story that I posted on instagram. I'm limiting the amount of posts that I like of hers because I don't want to seem too forward.
I'm assuming she is single but not entirely sure. I added her 3 months ago but she deleted me, I was confused because she only liked one of my stories few days prior. I would have liked to see if there was future for us but don't think she's interested now, i have messaged her saying 'Hi, hope your well. I probably should have said something a long time ago but I didn't, my fault. I've been praying for you, today I realise I've been deleted anyways I hope your keeping happy and healthy'. She replied saying 'Hey I'm good thanks hope you are too, that is kind of you, I didn't expect this kind of message'.
I didn't really know what to say back to her, I still don't understand why she deleted me even though days before she was showing an interest in my stories before and now she's deleted me. I have just replied saying 'that's good. Sorry for catching you off guard with it, I wanted to reach out to you earlier. I'm glad your doing well though' and now she has replied back saying 'can I ask why?' I replied back saying 'It's been on my mind for a while to get back in touch with you, I didn't add you for no reason. But we don't need to if it's not something your comfortable with'. She has now sent a long message as follows: 'You don’t make me feel uncomfortable. I have thought about you over the years and wished you well.
I removed you because you have my ex and his family on your instagram and I removed everyone who has any contact with them. You will have heard that I was married there for a short period of time but it was hell and now I’m out of it I don’t want them knowing anything about my life, so I removed everyone who has any link with them. I didn’t realise till that day that you did. It was nothing to do with you personally.' .
Im not actually friends with her ex husband as he is just someone that lives nearby to me and we have never spoken so I have now replied with this: 'I'm sorry that you had to go through that, I hope your okay and I pray god brings you ease. I wouldn't exactly say I have anything to do with them personally though, only thing I know about them is that they're from my area too. It makes sense now and it's understandable why you did that.'
She has replied back again saying 'I'm great, God is the best of planners and it was the best thing for me. Even so, I removed everyone who had us both so sorry about that' and to which I have replied 'That's fair enough, I'm glad to hear your doing well though and that your at peace now. That's what matters most'. She had now asked 'how have you been, what's new with you?' I have just replied saying 'I'm not too bad thanks, life's changed a lot since we last spoke so there's quite a lot that's new lol'. That was few nights ago, and after that we were speaking generally about the holiday that I'm currently on and what to do as she has been here before too and she also asked how long I'm there for, it was in general a short and civilised conversation.
She ended the conversation 6 nights ago by liking my last message, I don't know if she plans to message me again as she did take a few hours to reply between each message, What are the chances that she'll message me even if we don't follow each other on instagram anymore. I am slightly anxious that she won't message me after this due to her deleting me because her ex is on my Instagram. Was thinking of just giving her space for a few more days, then deleting her ex and requesting her back in around a weeks time.

1,000,000 Plinko balls split across five different casinos. Here are the results
I ran 200,000 Plinko balls across five of the biggest online casinos to determine the average RTP within that threshold.
•All tests were demo mode on the highest risk with $1 balls
First let’s rank my findings from best to worst RTP %
1st - Roobet/ 105.92 %
2nd - Jackpot city/ 97.76 %
3rd - PlayOJO (PlinkoGo) / 95.50 %
4th - 7bit/ 95.21 %
5th - Stake/ 91.28 %
Roobet was by far the most consistent. Once the RTP started to dip around 90%, a couple 26x or a 130x would almost always hit and bring up the RTP.
Jackpot city was incredibly volatile. No consistency at all. RTP would sore to 500% then suddenly go dead for thousands of balls.
PlayOJO is just a cookie cutter game simulation and I feel has the most honest RNG system.
7bit acted more closely to Jackpot city, but was a little more consistent. Still too volatile to try to manage with adjusting bet size.
Stake.. My Stake.. My home away from home. Not quite sure how it scored so low because I myself have hit four 1000x balls in a single night. Plinko on Stake has felt little different recently though. I’m struggling to turn my $2 tips into $500. Up until the last few months, I’d be able to do that at least once a week.
Obviously, this is to be taken with a grain of salt. These tests are typically done with tens of millions of bets sometimes more.
I, with my scientifically declined mind, do although feel like 200,000 is a big enough number to determine an average short term RTP. Not the RTP a specific game would display over a month with many more bets than I placed.
If anyone has suggestions for an online casino game that they would like me to test, I’m open to ideas.
This was a painful 12 hours of testing.

2024.05.14 22:11 SeekHelpThrowaway1 My "affair" with my boss...

Names have been changed to protect those involved.
One of my earliest memories of flirtation dates back to around June of 2022, during a casual encounter at Clowns'R'Us. I vividly recall asking for a bottle of pop, and his playful response, something along the lines of "if you give me all the love in your heart forever." Although the exact details have blurred over time, the impact was profound - my heart raced, and my mind buzzed with excitement. Following that moment, I found myself increasingly captivated by him. With my marriage already strained, and unsure of his relationship status, it was a pivotal moment just before he began dating Jennifer.
Our flirtatious banter continued to evolve over the span of several months, with him often taking the lead, while I, admittedly shy, mustered courage for occasional bold interjections. One memorable exchange occurred during our shared enjoyment of Bawls energy drinks, when he jokingly remarked about the universal need for "bawls in their mouth" – a humorous prelude, in hindsight. Another instance arose while we were sealing envelopes, where I inquired about the type of stamps, playfully alluding to my penchant for licking things. His reaction was a delightful mix of surprise and amusement. “That was dirty!” He exclaimed in response. As our connection deepened, he extended an invitation to his Discord server, aptly named [Removed for privacy]. There, our interactions took on a more playful tone, even to the point of incorporating a playful flirtation with a porn bot. While I no longer have access to the server, certain memories, like his virtual gesture of "licking," remain vivid.
Feb 6, 2023 I took a leap of faith and decided to make my move on Discord. After months of teasing and listening to his claims about how large his penis is, I found myself deeply attracted to him. I confessed my feelings, though the specifics of our conversation elude me as I deleted the messages afterward. While he initially turned me down, I persisted, and our flirtatious dynamic continued.
Feb 8, 2023 I spent an hour on a video call with him on Discord. During our conversation, he casually mentioned missing seeing a certain physical attribute (due to Jennifer not having them - breasts), and without hesitation, I boldly showed him mine. The expression on his face made it clear that he appreciated the view, and I couldn't help but crave to see that look again. Additionally, he mentioned a dating website where I could find a picture of his penis, under the account name "[Removed for Privacy]" Unfortunately, that account has been deleted since then.
Feb 9, 2023 We had another video chat, but I was feeling down and ended up in tears. Unfortunately, he didn't offer much comfort and turned me down once more. After that encounter, I decided to take a step back for a while. He was preoccupied with getting The Outpost up and running, as well as finalizing the split from Clowns'R'Us.
March 12, 2023 It was Sunday. The Outpost was open. I don't recall who all was working other than Bobby, myself, and Richard. Tiffany was also there as it was the weekend. I was in the backroom untangling wires, and Richard came into the back and said something along the lines of "I wish I was at home in bed getting a blow job right now", so I replied with my willingness to help him out with the blow job. He looked around to figure out where we could do it without getting caught, as the store was open at the time (it was the middle of the afternoon). I personally had been thinking about parking somewhere on the way home, and doing it in the car. He didn’t seem to want to wait that long. In the end, he stood in front of the door to the backroom and I knelt in front of him. “Don’t tell anyone”, he told me. The whole thing only took like 30 seconds that time. He later blamed it on his bite injury causing him issues, but I honestly think it was mostly just nerves on both our parts. Although the encounter was short-lived, it left me contemplating whether it was due to performance issues or sheer desire on his part. He didn't even have time to get fully hard, and it left me believing he was kinda on the smaller side. When he's fully soft, his dick hides like a turtle. I think it's cute, lol. But he’s a grower, not a show-er. When he’s fully hard, it’s a decent size, I later learned.
Afterward, he admitted it was a mistake and promised it wouldn't repeat. Although I was saddened, I reluctantly accepted his explanation for a while. I confided in my best friend about the incident when it happened, but a few days later, I falsely claimed it never occurred, leading to a heated argument between us - our first major disagreement.
April 26, 2023 I overheard him make a comment to someone during the work day about missing titties. So after everyone else left for the night, and it was just me and him working, I offered to show him mine again. He accepted the offer. I begged him to touch me. He asked if he would get in trouble. I told him no. He took off his glasses and put his head in between them. Then he let me suck him off again. He lasted much longer this time. We both agreed afterwards that it was the last time.
May 3, 2023 Richard was giving me and the annoying kid a ride home. After he dropped the annoying kid off, I mentioned to him that I really didn't feel like going home yet, cause I didn't want to go home to an empty house. He suggested I could clean his bedroom for some extra cash. Jennifer was on her way to Chicago that night. We went to his apartment. I can't fully recall the timeline of events that night, so I'll try to get everything in order as best I can. I started tidying up his bedroom. He had me change the sheets on his bed, and afterwards he made a comment about how he should have asked me to clean naked. I sat on his bed while he talked to Jennifer on the phone for a bit, joking with her about K-pop music. Then he came back to his bedroom and shut and locked the door. I knew at that point that something would happen between us. I tried to kiss him, and he said he doesn't kiss. I asked him to finger me, and he said "no, because then I'll never get rid of you." He made a comment later about how he couldn't fuck me without a condom. Up to that point, I didn't think he'd even be willing to do so at all. After that I sat down, and reached to grab his dick cause I knew he was still willing to do something. He asked if I was trying to do what he thought I was trying to do. I said yes. He laid down on the bed and let me suck him. At one point, he grabbed his dick and had me suck on his balls. I had never done this before, or ever even been asked to do this before, so I did the best I could with it. He seemed to enjoy it. After he was done, he sat and played his new COD game for a few minutes, then took me home. We were at his apartment from 10:09 PM until 11:29 PM. I think this was the night I really started to fall in love with him.
May 19, 2023 I don't recall too many details about this time. We were in the backroom of the Outpost again. I showed him my tits and while I was sucking him off, he asked to fuck them. He was sitting in a chair, and I was kneeling in front of him, so it was exactly the best angle for doing it, but I did my best with it.
May 25, 2023 I don't recall too much about this time either. I believe I started it this time, asking him if he wanted anything, and he said "why not, after the day I've had" or something to that effect. This time he sucked on my tits. I then sucked him off again. Again, in the backroom of The Outpost. I think this was the time when I stopped towards the end cause I wanted to get a good look at his dick fully hard, because I was always too busy to get a good look when he was fully hard the last few times. I didn’t know he was about ready to cum. He grabbed my head and said “put it back in” and basically jammed it down my throat, lol. I enjoyed it though. After this though, he almost always grabbed my hair and held my head down as he was about to cum.
May 31, 2023 This time, again in the backroom of The Outpost, when I showed him my tits, he said "that's nice" and just wanted me to get down to sucking him, so I did. I don’t really remember too much about this time either. The memories all blurred together with time.
June 8, 2023 I was in the backroom, chatting with my husband on the phone, when Richard came in and sat next to me. From the way he looked at me, I knew exactly what he wanted without any need for discussion. I quickly ended my call with my husband, explaining that I had to finish cleaning some consoles. Seeing the newly installed camera in the backroom, I remarked about it to Richard, prompting him to unplug it. He mentioned we needed to hurry before Kevin came to the back, so I did my best to accommodate him swiftly. True to his word, Kevin was headed towards the backroom barely a minute after we finished.
June 13, 2023 Though I didn't know it at the time, this would be the last time for a while. He had already unplugged the camera when I figured he was wanting to do something. I made a comment about it, and he said he just didn't want to be watched by anyone. I can't recall exactly what I said, but he said something about "would it be so bad if we didn't do it" or something to that effect. He let me suck him off anyway though. I asked him again why he wouldn't kiss me, and he said he just didn't want to. I told him I wanted him, and he said I couldn't have him.
June 20, 2023 Jennifer chose to end her relationship with Richard by leaving a letter for him at The Outpost. Richard was deeply affected by the breakup and asked Bobby to give me a ride home that evening. Seeking clarification about our own relationship, I inquired about it, and Richard expressed his desire for us to remain just friends. Despite his stance, I held onto a glimmer of hope, purchasing condoms at the gas station that night, hoping for a possibility that he might reconsider. As time passed and it became apparent that my hopes were unfounded, I decided to leave the condoms in The Outpost bathroom for someone else to use or discard.
In the subsequent months, I confided in a handful of individuals about the events that transpired between us. As a consequence, he terminated my employment temporarily. Furthermore, he resorted to intimidation tactics, threatening to ostracize me from The Outpost community if I dared to disclose our truth to others. He concocted a fabricated narrative, alleging that I had initiated advances toward him, only to concoct falsehoods in a bid to extort him.
Let's examine the absurdity of his accusations. If indeed I were fabricating tales for the sake of manipulation, wouldn't it be far more sensational to claim a physical intimacy beyond reality? Instead, I recounted the truth: instances where I provided him with gratification without reciprocity, enduring his rejection of any emotional connection.
This isn't merely about defending my integrity; it's about unveiling the truth that has been obscured by his deceit.
Towards either the end of November or the beginning of December, I was working there a lot again.
December 18, 2023 We were in the backroom of The Outpost again. Everyone else had left for the night, and we were working quite late. I begged him to let me do it (suck him off) one last time. He asked if I was recording him on my phone because he didn't trust me. I unlocked my phone and handed it to him. He asked if I thought I was prettier than Jennifer because he had turned her down that night. He asked if I was prettier than Autumn because he also turned her down that night. In the end, he let me do it. I think maybe he forgot to unplug the camera. He asked me to show him my tits. This was around 3 AM on the morning of the 18th. After I sucked him for a bit, he sucked on my tits again, and I enjoyed it so much I almost came. I kept repeating his name over and over while he was doing it. Afterwards, we both agreed it was the last time. He told me that any man would accept a blowjob, but it doesn’t mean anything.
December 27, 2023 We were in the backroom of The Outpost again, but he had Tiffany (his daughter), so I really didn't expect anything to happen that night. We had done stuff one other time when Tiffany was there, I can't remember which time, but she was asleep on the couch that time, and this time she was wide awake. He asked her to go play Fortnite for a bit. Then he asked me if I was trying to do something. I said, sure, but Tiffany's here. He said we could go to the bathroom, but we had to stop if she came into the backroom. I went in there, and sat on the toilet while he stood. While I had his dick in my mouth, he asked me "you know, this still doesn't mean I'm into you, right?" I shook my head yes in response, as I had my mouth full at the time. His words hit me hard, and I couldn't hold back the tears when I got home. Despite my love for him, hearing those words while engaged in that act was incredibly painful.
January 3, 2024 This was the day Trina overfilled her car with oil. Richard was giving me a ride home, but we first had to follow his mechanic to Trina and Damian's car, and then follow the car back to his mechanics. While we were in the car, I told him that I didn't want to stop what we were doing, even if it was just that. He tried to say that we weren’t doing anything, but in the end we went and parked outside of his apartment, and he had him suck him off in his car. We stopped every time a car came in our direction. He came so hard I felt his whole body tense up. I remember being jealous, because I wanted him to make me cum like that. I wanted to tell him that it drove me crazy that he lets me do that, but I can't touch him at all when anyone else is around. I told him in the car on the way home that I'll quit asking him if I could do it, but I'd never tell him no. We were parked outside his apartment from 11:51 PM to 12:13 AM.
January 14, 2024 Tiffany was there again. Again, he asked me in the back if I was trying to do something. I said "If you want." He told me to go into the bathroom. He went to check on Tiffany and then came to meet me in the bathroom. He wasn't hard at all, and I actually had a little trouble finding it with my mouth this time. He mentioned that if I'm so good at it, why do I keep ignoring his balls. So I sucked on his balls again too.
January 24, 2024 I know he was starting to get bored with me, so I think he decided to try to switch things up a bit. He asked me if I was trying to do something. I responded again “if you want” and he said, “that’s not what I asked” so I reminded him that I wasn’t going to ask him again, but I wouldn’t ever say no. He turned off all the lights in The Outpost, and we went out and sat on the couch at the back of The Outpost. It was dark enough that nobody could see us and the mall was closed. He asked to fuck my tits again and I obliged. He told me he couldn't understand why I kept doing it. I didn't really have an answer for him at the time. I love him. That's why. But I couldn't tell him that again.
January 31, 2024 At the back of The Outpost again, with the lights out again. He tried to use the VR to watch porn at first, but with the lights out, using the VR wasn't really an option. He didn't know that I'd been fantasizing about doing just that for over a year, so I immediately started thinking of solutions to that issue. I sucked him off on the couch, and he again said he couldn't understand why I kept doing it. I told him because it's all he'd let me do. And I like knowing I can get him off. And that I enjoy it. It's fun. And he tastes really good.
February 6, 2024 I had ordered an infrared light on Amazon, to enable use of VR in the dark. I really wanted to live out my fantasy with him. I brought it into The Outpost and gave it to him as a gift. That night, he sat in his chair at the back of The Outpost with the lights out, watching porn on his VR while I sucked him off. Afterwards he said it was interesting. I asked if he had ever done that before, and he said no. I asked him if he enjoyed it and he said that to be honest, he was kinda getting bored, or something to that effect. In the car, on the way home, he told me that he needed me to quit. What we were doing, he clarified. I knew then that we were done, and that my days at work were probably numbered.
On Saturday, February 24th, 2024 he told me my services were no longer needed.
On March 16th, 2024 Richard has Bobby call me and ask if I want a job. I returned to work on March 17th, 2024. At this time, I am attempting to avoid being alone with Richard going forward.
March 26th, 2024 Richard scheduled me to work today, even though Bobby wasn’t working to give me a ride home, leaving Richard to give me a ride home. Tiffany was here, and everyone else had left for the night. We were in the backroom, and he said “I’m trying to decide - do I let her drain it or no” At first I said I didn't know. He asked if I was gonna get crazy again. I said I am crazy. But I said yes. We went to the bathroom and took care of business. He left the bathroom before I did because Tiffany had come into the backroom. I stood in the bathroom and waited for him to send Tiffany back to the front of the store for a bottle of water before I exited the bathroom.
April 6th, 2024 I was eating a pickle in the backroom. Richard came back to go to the bathroom. When he came out, I said to him “We’re done, right?” He was like “with what?” I’m like “You know what” and he said “yeah”, and I said “ok, I was getting bored too.” So I think it is finally over. Jennifer is coming back into town on April 7th, 2024, and they are planning on getting an apartment together.
April 19th, 2024 We were working late tonight, pricing out blu-rays and getting them listed on eBay. Richard’s phone went dead so we took a break and went into the backroom. As I’m writing this, my head is swimming and I’m exhausted because I just got home, but I’m trying to remember most of what happened. He’s like “we got 10 minutes until the phone charges, what do you want to do?” and I said I didn’t know. Then I think he asked what I was thinking about, and I said I was wondering if he wanted me to do something, and whether or not I should say yes, because I can’t keep giving and giving and not getting anything in return. He said he wasn’t touching my pussy. I asked him if he would at least kiss me. He said no, because he only does that with people he loves. But then he said he’d play with my boobs again. So I rolled my chair over to his and pulled my tits out for him to play with. I asked him if he wanted to see a pic of how big they used to be before my surgery, and he said yes, so I showed him the pic on my Discord server. Then he wanted to see what else was on that channel. I didn’t want to show him because I didn’t want him to be mad because it was the channel where I kept records of what me and him did. But I showed him and he made me delete them while he watched. I'm not surprised he made me do that. I kinda expected him to. Then we got back to fooling around, he sucked on my tits, then I started sucking him. He said he could get a blowjob every day, and it’s so relaxing. He mentioned that there was a gang bang that he had thought about taking me to, he thought I’d enjoy it. Then I stopped and told him I wanted to fuck him so bad. He said he didn’t know what I had or didn’t have. I told him I didn’t have anything. Then he made me pinky promise to never talk about it to anyone. And I got up, took off my skirt and panties and finally had sex with him for the first, and most likely last time. It didn’t last very long, I only got off once, then he made me climb off and he came all over the floor. Then we agreed to never talk about it again. In the car on the way home, I told him I’ll keep taking care of him until Jennifer comes back, if he wants, and it will stay between us. He said he’d let me know. So yeah, it’s not over just yet.
April 24th, 2024 We were alone at the store again. We were in the back room and he asked me if I meant what I said about keeping “draining him” until Jennifer gets back. I told him yes, and asked him where. He asked me where I wanted to. I immediately told him “the massage chair”, cause that’s been a fantasy of mine since he got the damn thing (I didn’t tell him that part though). He vetoed that because the cameras were on in the store. So I cleared off the chair in the backroom for him again. I asked him again if I could kiss him. He let me kiss him on the cheek. Then we got down to the usual business. He told me in the middle of it that I didn’t seem to be too bored with it. LOL. In the car on the way home, I asked him if he’s a sex addict. He said he’s not. He says he just has “stress issues”. I’m not really sure what to make of that.
May 6th, 2024 We were getting ready to leave for the night, it was around 1 A.M. and after he shut off all the store lights, he stopped in the doorway and asked if I wanted it. I said sure, and so with all the lights still out, I asked if the massage chair was working. So we went back into the store to check. It wasn’t working, so we went back into the backroom with all the lights off. I took my time with it, cause I know we are running out of time. In the car on the way home, I told him again that I do just want to be friends with him. Then I told him that “pequeña polla” means little dick, and he said he’s only small for people he doesn’t like, lol. I then asked him if he lost a couple inches when he gained all the weight. He said that he had. I said “thought so”.
While the essence of what I shared remains true, there might be some slight discrepancies in the timing of events. Conversations and interactions may have taken place on different dates than initially recalled, but the substance of our experiences remains consistent. I kept a record of every time we messed around and the dates it happened, all on my private Discord channel. I have ways of proving I was where I said I was, when I said I was.
I composed this document not as a means to coerce Richard, but rather to address the truth of our situation. My aim isn't to extract anything from him; all I seek is for him to acknowledge his role in this matter. Admittedly, my involvement with him was misguided, a lapse in judgment on my part. Yet, it's essential to recognize that his involvement was equally misguided—he pursued it as eagerly as I did. However, the crux of the issue lies in my feelings; I fell deeply in love, a sentiment not reciprocated by him. Throughout our interactions, there were moments where I felt manipulated, even gaslit. Still, despite these red flags, my affection persisted.
From the onset, Richard professed care for me, yet reiterated his lack of attraction. I was fully aware that I was being used, yet I allowed it to happen repeatedly. This admission isn't an attempt to manipulate or victimize but rather to confront the stark reality of our dynamic. It's time for Richard to acknowledge the impact of his actions and the emotional toll it took on me. Let's address this with honesty and integrity, for only through acknowledgment can we begin to heal and move forward.
Certain portions were refined by ChatGPT, acknowledging my occasional struggle with articulation, yet maintaining the utmost accuracy in depicting the sequence of events.

As the title says, I'm looking up the discounts and I love these types of games, but I don't know where to bounce my head. Was looking for something Cozy and chill, I missed the discount on Echoes of the Plum Grove and I think it was right about my alley. I'm considering atm something along city builders/management (like DotAGE) and I see there are lots of discounts. Thanks anyway for the help!

2024.05.14 22:10 Basic_Domie How to help someone who’s being bullied

So my son’s almost 10. It was always easy for him to make friends, full of positive energy and all that. We’ve moved from London to Glasgow 3 years ago and now he’s having some hard time. Kids keep picking on him cuz of his (American) accent, different style, earrings, dyed hair and all that. The thing is he’s very emotional and gives them reactions so they keep doing it. One kids whole life revolves around bullying my son. They’re always on the streets and my son isn’t. They have plenty of free unsupervised time and no goals. I think that’s the main reason why kids do what they’re doing. My son had long purple hair previously and cut them because of his bullies. They’ll be telling him he’s gay cause of his earrings too. I keep telling him to not let them destroy his creativity. Why do people want everyone to just be like them, that’s so boring. I’m considering moving to a different, more diverse area. One of his bullies was kicking our front door few times a week until he was told to stop. My son’s struggling mentally now and I don’t know how to help him. He always has hobbies he picks himself, now it’s swimming and coding (which he absolutely loves and even made a few wee games) and he taught his classmates some little coding too. He goes to boxing classes sometimes too and he knows how to punch. He’s a pacifist tho and he doesn’t want to fight. He just gets emotional and he keeps saying he’s gonna kill him self. I have adhd too and tried to delete myself in the past too so I know how difficult it is now for him. Is there anything we could do about his confidence? How’s he going to learn to protect himself? I’m terrified Thanks In advance and sorry if I’m not making much sense.

2024.05.14 22:10 AreUaSoldierOrDancer Thoughts on Boom Guns, Shadow Boi and Glitter Boy

First: Why no Boom gun equipped tanks or giant robots? Always seemed odd to me.
2nd: are Glitter Boy Borgs a thing? Becasue I can definitely see Traix and Free Quebec at least trying that out. Also See the Super heavy borgs from Russia
3rd my main point:
I love Shadow boi https://www.deviantart.com/chuckwalton/art/Rifts-Shadow-Boy-Power-Armor-319549584 fixes all the issues with the Glitter boi in return for a much smaller price tag especially for armour and weapon replacement. The normal glitter boi is great at ONE VERY SPECIFIC THING and that’s it. outside that niche it becomes a huge liability. Not that I don’t like the concept of a literal walking artillery gun and the heroic mystique, thats cool.
However the downsides are huge and I understand that’s intentional for game balance and Roleplay opportunities.
it’s armor and Boom Gun is literally not made anymore (depending on when your playing) outside Free Quebec and Triax (good luck getting any from them unless you join them of course) so your utterly screwed if you suffer a lot of damage to either of the two things that make a glitter boy what it is. Also the Admittedly very tough laser reflective armour doesn’t count for much when fighting most things as there so many alternate weapon types and magic etc.
Then there are the severe limitations of the one and ONLy weapon it packs. not being able to move and having to stabilize. Not having a good speed even when not firing really doesn’t help that. Lack of any secondary weapons is a really bad design oversight like not even a small laser or something like that Is frankly silly. Even real life SPGs usually have a pintle HMG for AA and local defence. Given the usual combat ranges your probably facing in rifts Ruins and overgrowth. your also not getting to use the HUGE range advantage of the boom gun anywhere near often enough to make it a big deal.
The ultimate issue is The glitter boi was designed to fight in large combined arms formations that would have other support units cover those weaknesses. But obviously after the rifts that stopped being a thing For quite a while.
The Shadow Boi or as I call it the PRACTICAL BOI unlike the Glitter Boy it has MUCH more options and versatility outside of being a simple giant walking gun That does one single thing very well and is little more than a giant shiny paperweight if you take out its big gun. frankly in the rifts earth environment this thing works much better. It’s mobile, can fight well at any range that isn’t literally ARTILLERY and in Rifts earth good luck finding a nice open field that lets you exploit the Boom Guns full range.
The only real downside for the shadow boy is that it’s much less tough then the Glitter Boy. But cosidering how much more likely the glitter is to get HIT just standing there in the first place it’s a worthy trade off.

2024.05.14 22:10 TheBreadPeddler New to OSINT

Hi everyone! I’ve just discovered the world of OSINT and I love it. At least I think I do. I don’t have much yet to back that up on.
I’m finishing my first year in school for cybersecurity, and I have an interest in financial forensics / cyber intelligence. I have a very basic understanding of general computer science / OSINT / cybsec fundamentals. So my question: what now? How should I go about getting more involved in a community like this? What are my career options with the interests I’ve listed? Is my plan below good for the next year or so? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
My current game plan is as follows: • Gain a solid understanding of networking • Understand the fundamentals of good cybersecurity frameworks • Begin building an OSINT toolkit • Participate in OSINT practice

2024.05.14 22:10 The_OG_Chad A medical / game overhaul to maximize depth/immersion with mostly current code and mechanics. A compromise to bridge “hardcores” + “casuals” and not killing expensive medical ships.

It’s a little scattered doing it on my phone. I’ll get home and clean it up. But I want peoples input. I really think this would work and it’s totally realistic. I think CIG needs some guidance and the medical changes offer the perfect moment to add these features in the game.
I have been a developer for years and I can see CIG trying balance what’s realistic and what they promised. Every startup I was with came to a point where they realized their proposals were far too aggressive, and the higher ups would not even listen to ideas unless they were easy to implement.
So, I’ve been trying to come up with ideas that take minimal effort for maximum gains. These are fairly simple, but will add depth or will lay the groundwork for easy future development.
I think this is the perfect topic for my first idea. The medical system is tricky, but so important. Right now, the medical system is boring and doesn’t add much to the game and with a few tweaks it could add 25% more and be a major part imo while feeling more immersive and satisfying both parties. We need to look to other amazing games like Eve online and cyberpunk imo.
The hard-core fans want investment and death to cost. Now that I am older and have a family, I understand how hard it is to balance that in time to play Now that I am older and have a family, I understand how hard it is to balance that and time to play. It’s really hard to get your average gamer to want to invest 30 minutes to simply respawn.
So in my opinion, we need a system that…
  1. Makes death inconvenient and costly but with several ways to pay the “bill”, not only costly at that moment so the player decides quitting is easier.
  2. Makes the game far more immersive and makes the game deeper, not shallower. In real life in the future, in the future, medical would be a vast portion of warfare and finance and exploration and exploitation. Not just a glorified HP counter.
  3. Makes all medical ships useful and relevant. Cannot have a shallow system where one ship is clearly the best.
  4. Makes healthcare and biology affect all the other parts of the game…. It is our bodies and minds after all. In the future, the wealthy will modify their bodies, just like their ships.
  5. Uses a lot of these modules that are currently window dressing, but have amazing application. Things like blood pressure and reflex times and damage reduction and bio scanners and the HUD and incorporates it to a tiered clone system.
TLDR is We need a Cyberpunk / Eve style futuristic bio medical system with weapons and implants that completely change a persons capabilities and a jump clone system that reflects this. T5-T1 clones 5 being a throwaway and 1 being a Spartan from Halo. T1 would have the exact HUD we have now with additional systems. T4 and less is like the game in photo mode with nothing. People take for granted how much information you get from the HUD and who would really have access to it?
The beauty of this is while it sounds like a lot and would add 25-50% more careers, economys, gameplay and strategy’s from a gameplay perspective. Its actually not much at all from a development point of view. It would reuse all of the current systems now, and add a few skills like scanning / hacking and weapons like EMP, Darts to humans. Generally, this is how it would work.
T5 clone is a meat bag with a 4 hour life used as a spare tire. It’s the base level. Operated similar to when you’re drunk because The damage from the cryo. You can do stuff, but you are very limited. They can be carried around in 1 SCU containers or special lockers in big ships for dangerous work like reactor repairs etc.
T4 clone is a meatbag the same we are inhabiting right now IRL. Basically this is exactly like you turning off the game hud in photo mode. These cannot be cold stored and reused. No HUD or endgame information input at all outside of your Moby glass watch.
T3 clone is the first of the implants. It can take one implant. Combat might allow thermal vision or the local map and radar and crosshair. Exploration might have the ability to bookmark or see things on your HUD that you scanned from your ship. Conversation might add elements to charisma and talking people into doing things, getting better prices on goods, or hearing rumors about opportunities, etc. Covert allow you to scan people and check their inventory and run checks on who they are, what crimes they have committed, etc.
Basically it’s a stripped down version of the hud that’s active all the time even without helmets. It has to work in tandem with your mobi. You have to select one element.
T2 clone has upgraded reflexes, can run longer, survive more dmg and has the complete HUD suite. It has the bandwidth and upgrades to support 1 implant and 1 physical modification. Everything CIG has been adding can be added to the HUD but you have to switch between exploration, combat, conversation, covert etc. 1 physiological mod or weapon. Like a brain hacking chip that can open ship doors, and emp that shut down all electronics in a 20 m radius for 15 seconds or a drone or fiber optics camera. Then there are all the illegal modifications like hidden blades, Multi launchers with everything from neurotoxin to EMP darts.
T1 clone is very costly and made for combat and for solo explorers who need complete autonomy. 20% more hp, and basically 20% better everything. It has the complete HUD with the ability to Connect to the data stream of two ships in your party. If your buddys ship detect an enemy ship coming in it would pop up in your actual vision as a big red square with information. You would have the ability to zoom without a helmet on and have limited scanning just like your ships function on everything.
It could 2 implants. 1 legal and 1 illegal implant. Emp, Hacker etc
It also has two physical modifications. Blades, darts etc
Also the tier 2 and 1 are the only clones that are not harmed using heavy or power armor. The others are slowly harmed by s by the rapid and jarring servos, etc. so they are all time limited.
Imagine how amazing this would make the universe in general. You would have ripper docs implanting stolen, or military implants. Corpses would now be valuable if they had upgraded organs for implants. People would become targets just for their implants.
If you killed an assassin coming after you, you could take his cool tools.
Sometimes corpses could be worth as much as a ship. You could actually ransom back bodies.
You could have a repo men coming to collect the implants. Organ traders and human traffickers.
But it would also make T1 and 2 ships completely necessary in combat because they were the only ones who could rec clone military units.
Best of all. All of this code is already there. All of the heads up display and all these cool features they’ve been adding Would be the implants themselves.
The game the Way it is it doesn’t make sense that a Moby glass can produce all of this data. It makes the game more immersive as well.
It doesn’t have to be over the top like cyberpunk. But we almost have brain implants now and everything is going wireless, you really think in the future they’re gonna be wearing a wristwatch? Everything will be brain implant and wetware.
With these easy changes, we solve our medical problems and add a ton of depth along with the ability to add as much depth as we want.
All you would need is to create the UI for this, but the game already has a lot of that with its biological scanners. All the balancing could happen by biologically if you’re using implants, etc.
Jump clones would cost a lot of money to make, and healthcare in real life is one of the most expensive things. But just like the hospital doesn’t make you pay your bill the moment you’re out of surgery, we need to spread the cost to a later time.
The time the player needs to respawn is usually after they have already planned and loaded up and executed, but didn’t succeed. This is time where casual players set aside their block of playable hours. (when the kids are asleep and wife is watching something etc) So by making it too costly at that moment, ( 30 minutes to an hour, getting geared up and in ship flying back) your odds are they will just quit, which is not engaging for other players and your odds of a major war or event go down drastically. What’s good for the game and what was so successful in Eve was the fights after the opening.
Instead the front loading all the time investment, Charge 5-25k for the biomaterial. spread the cost of the death to a later time and let them pay off their debt when they log back in.
We also want to make the smaller tier 3 ships necessary while not killing the t1 and 2 beds.

2024.05.14 22:10 HappyHamster_ Refilling HP 305 Ink Cartridges

So I literally wasted 19,99€ + 19,99€ + 29,99€ + 29,99€ = total of 99,96€ in the past two days.
I realized that my new HP deskjet 2710e only prints something like 70 color A4 pages with all those ink cartridges even with the lowest quality print setting. >:(
I learned that you can refill cartridges with ink refill sets and wanted to ask is these something I must know before refilling the ink cartridges and put them back on, so the printer still will accept the refilled ink cartridges. Anything to software to disable, remove ect? The actual refilling I think I already get.
Printer game has some of the worst asshole designs out there. Thanks for your help!

2024.05.14 22:09 Solo-js Can’t win a game

Anyone else just had a massive drop in form? Just not working for me at all. Usually hover around division 3, sometimes 2. Even when playing badly it’s respectable but I’m getting absolutely hammered. It’s tight and then an avalanche losing by 3 or 4. Won about 1 in 20
Has anyone had to change tactics? I play a standard 433, quick counter but play possession as I find the possession tactic to be too static
I can’t get in behind the defence at all, literally never behind and if I do then I’m caught. Every through ball is cut out or my striker out muscled. (Pa3) I find my players to be weak and stretched, big through balls are tearing me apart and they power through, pass across the goal and in.
Not won an offensive header in about 20 games but conceding to headers too. Just seem to have no time on the ball to pass. Has the possession tactic got better? Maybe my players are pulled too far using QC
I got 42 interceptions (!!!) in my last game and lost 4-0
I do feel like the game itself is a bit better than it was last week, I’m not hating playing but I dont know if the new meta is big through ball and pass across the box or if it just being crap. Biggest losing streak I’ve ever had

hello boys and girls,
I am working on creating a "wind sim" in sim hub. I think I have everything set up correctly and everything works. but when I start my game (BeamNG) the fans don't work. under the game it says udp 9999 and then it says waiting for data. I think it has to do with the fact that I downloaded this game illegale. is there a way to make the game work? or is it something else?
I like to hear it. Thanks for the help...
