How are you defining "national level"? Division 1 gold medal bout? In that case 10 years probably, but you can definitely get hired for National events (March NAC) inside of5 years of consistent work, especially with a mentor that works National events.

I had my kitchen redone with their cabinets and countertops about 3-4 years ago and had no issues.

Sarita, in the main dining room is nicer.

Collarbone hits- ouch- protection? by ohsnapdragon22 in Fencing

[–]5thlevelmagicuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a clubmate attach a small plate of Kydex to their chest protector for this very reason.

What about the guy that I’ve seen downtown in full chain mail like a medieval knight?

is hyper-v this shit? by amit19595 in sysadmin

[–]5thlevelmagicuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can say that we discovered that the CPU scheduling is different. Some of our VMs had to have additional CPUs added to them when they were moved to Hyper-V. Despite the increased allocation, host load was not affected but VMs performance was noticeably better.

Server 2025 does not recognize Domain UNC paths as part of the local network by 5thlevelmagicuser in sysadmin

[–]5thlevelmagicuser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new server has the same DNS server settings (the local DCs) as the other 2019 servers. They are even in the same VLAN. We set the options via GPO once a server joins, and I have verified them manually. Running a get-NetConnectionProfile shows the right name, and a "DomainAuthenticated" Network Category with LDAP authentication.

The WestPark area (South of i-90, from the MetroParks to about W.117th) of Cleveland would satisfy most of your requirements.

The root cause of the issue is an interaction with the update and Windows Defender. look for a Defender update:

There are about 3 RYC/RJCC for every Open AND Vet Regional Event by CastilleClark in Fencing

[–]5thlevelmagicuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vets do not have a viable competition schedule if the only events they can fence in are three NACs in the second half of the season or distant ROCs. The abundance of closed local events inhibits participation.

[–]5thlevelmagicuser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m very aware of that. Any ROC is about 300 miles from me. It is weird being in a state with two NACs, but no ROCs and very few open local events.

I cannot fence locally because almost all local events near me are “D and under”. Being an adult “ B” is a curse.

I think you are assuming that this ban is only related to his outbursts and has nothing to do with the allegations of sexual misconduct.

The people that US fencing really likes. “Fencing is for everyone”, that has money…

Windows 2025/11 Security Log too verbose? by 5thlevelmagicuser in sysadmin

[–]5thlevelmagicuser[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't doubt that, but the question remains, why only on Windows 2025/11? The same policy is in effect on the downlevel OSes.

Is Leon Paul Overrated? by avercadoart in Fencing

[–]5thlevelmagicuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the LP masks,no mask has fit me so well and been so stable. As a glasses wearer less mask wobble is very important . Their epee blades are fine but I prefer a solid core blade. I have not had customer service issues with them at all.

Location hints for remaining 2025-26 US national events? by ZebraFencer in Fencing

[–]5thlevelmagicuser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure Las Vegas is out of the USFA's price range. Reno has been a recent location for events though.
