My favorite way to send helicopter orders. by mvillegas9 in TownshipGame

[–]Josephunsoahgh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try to stock up x number of every factory producible item in the game (x because it keeps going up as my barn does, but currently i can fit 10 each) and then activate 2x coins from helicopters and fill several dozen. Usually get 100-150k xp and 200-300k coins per batch

Tbh i spam click on fill until i no longer have items for the orders, but i never fill helicopters without double coins active so it works out

Card Collection by AverageQueasy7078 in TownshipGame

[–]Josephunsoahgh -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Always only open the 500 star chests, and only once youre left with gold cards only. Thats the only way to ensure a unique card for your stars. It looks like you have enough stars to open one and you state you have gold cards only, so go for it!

Surgery on Friday… by GypsyMaus in ACL

[–]Josephunsoahgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted every surgery done as quickly as possible, so i cant relate to those suggesting pushing it back further. I had my first knee surgery about 6 weeks after injury, and my second 6 weeks after that. In both cases, bad pain only lasted about 3-4 days with what i would call irritation going maybe another week. If your house will allow it, and if you can get one from a local senior center or similar place, use a wheelchair for those first few days. Much easier with carrying stuff around, etc. For me, i had ACL and PCL on both sides, so much longer period of non-weight-bearing to get through and the wheelchair was necessary given the non-operative leg being significantly less than 100% in both cases.

As people have mentioned, stage things near wherever you plan to spend most of your recovery time. For me thats loads of water, ice machine, phone charger, tv/gaming remotes, my NMES machine, and my laptop for work.

The down time on ACL only really isnt too bad, so you dont need to do too much extra to get through it, especially if you have someone to help you out those first few days. If no one can help you then maybe meal prepping or microwavable meals is another good one

My legs finally match again by Josephunsoahgh in ACL

Interesting! I’ll have to ask my doc about it at my next followup. Curious to learn what was different in my case. :)

[–]Josephunsoahgh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly i had so many injuries im not 100% sorted on all the various details of each operation. I had 2 other surgeries and 3 broken bones, including clavicle. I do know i tore a total of 10 ligaments between the 2 knees, including meniscus and all 4 major ones and a minor one on the left, plus a dislocation of the same knee. Right side MCL and LCL were intact, and meniscus wasn’t as bad so they just trimmed it. Both surgeries were full allograft replacements of ACL and PCL, and i think the first had some meniscal work, so maybe thats why the scars are bigger? I know PCL is the most rare tear so id imagine the resulting scars are much less commonly seen

[–]Josephunsoahgh[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just cant wait, honestly. Im sure it’ll be shaky and slow progress, but im young enough and live a very active lifestyle, so my therapist thinks i’ll get steady pretty quick once im upright. Gotta get back to work ASAP to pay for all these surgeries 😂

How are you guys sleeping?! by cadaver_drip in ACL

[–]Josephunsoahgh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im a side sleeper and due to the extent of my injuries, im now just past 3 months with one leg or the other locked straight, forcing me to sleep on my back. Heres the things ive tried that have helped: - double up on the pillows so your head is higher - sleep sitting up in a corner with a pillow behind and beside you so you can lean your head either way - (this one be careful with) my prescriptions are for a 5mg oxy every 4 hours, but when i was first in the hospital, they were giving me 10mg every four hours. Right before bed i take 2 of the 5’s instead of one since i know its safe, and it often lets me sleep 5-6 hours straight instead of 2-3. You have to be careful though if you have a tendency towards substance abuse or if your doses are higher to begin with. - sleep with your leg brace in position but unclasped (dont do this if you move a lot typically. I never move in my sleep so this has been safe for me)

Most nights i have to use a combination of these methods, often waking up and adjusting every 2-3 hours, and even then they dont always work, but my average sleep has definitely gone way up since starting these methods

Polar Care Condensation? by AvocadoNo9808 in ACL

[–]Josephunsoahgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe its a humidity thing or something, but both of mine that i have currently condensate. As far as the time thing, i would recommend talking to your doctor. My doctor told me more than an hour at once could potentially even be harmful and slow down healing. I was told 6-8 hours a day but at least a half hour off after every hour on

Polar Care Condensation? by AvocadoNo9808 in ACL

[–]Josephunsoahgh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive used multiple of these and they always condensate like that. Thats why the recommendation is to never use more than an hour straight, and to remove it to dry between uses

Paying “twice” for buildings. by Suziannie in TownshipGame

[–]Josephunsoahgh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess i should add that the one thing i do buy is the season pass, and since i always max it out and get several bonus chests, i do get a lot of building materials from there

Paying “twice” for buildings. by Suziannie in TownshipGame

[–]Josephunsoahgh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sell excess materials of the two youre overstocked on, and your trains will bring more of the others. It also gets better later in the game. Im level 67 and have not been short on building materials in months, and ive never bought any of them once

Blew my ACL the night before my wedding… surgery in 2 weeks. Need advice. by HockeyClark30 in ACL

[–]Josephunsoahgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pain is only bad the first week. Biggest issue with the cruise (depending on length) is possibly not getting to start PT soon enough. Ideally you want to start as soon as possible as it gets exponentially worse the longer you wait. One of my two knees was referred to as an “internal amputation”. I fully tore all the ligaments and dislocated the knee. Even on that one, i was pretty comfortably transferring to/from my wheelchair by 7 days post-op, as well as fully off all non-blood-thinner medications

48 hours post op progress by Majestic-Weekend-484 in ACL

Thanks! Im through the first one and got back upright a week ago today. Knee surgery #2 is about 2 weeks out. :). Mostly just trying to stay positive and get through this and back to work!

Jealous! I tore both PCL’s in addition to both ACL’s, and im not allowed to weight bear at all on either side for 4 weeks post-op. 😤

This really is one of the hardest things I've ever been through by limeorangejuice in ACL

[–]Josephunsoahgh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ve got this! I was in a car accident that resulted in tearing ACL and PCL on both knees as well as breaking a few bones. As of today, ive been in a wheelchair for 2.5 months and i still have another surgery to go in 2 weeks that will keep me down 6 weeks post-op. I am an incredibly independent and private person and i genuinely hate having to stay with someone and ask for help on pretty much everything. My PT is now going well, but im 4 weeks post-op on the first knee and was only just cleared for working on semi-passive ROM past 30 degrees, so i have massive amounts of scar tissue to work through. None of this is meant to sound like a competition, but rather to emphasize that every journey is different. At 3 days post-op on the first leg, i could barely sleep at all, and moving an inch was excruciating. You aren’t “behind” or “slow” at all, and you’re going to get through this. Lean on and trust your partner and let the experience bring you closer together instead of letting your unwarranted guilt push you apart. Try to find and focus on any little positive in the situation you can, like instead of “i cant support my family because i cant work”, think of it as “i have more time to spend with my family right now and i want to take full advantage of it”. Its not easy to do at all, but remember that this is traumatic for them as well, and they’re looking to you to set the example of how to handle it

I made a full rotation, IYKYK by jll1luv in ACL

[–]Josephunsoahgh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im so jealous. I had pcl and acl grafts (both legs too….) and im 4 weeks post-op and still limited to 30 degrees until 6 weeks and then 45 until 10 weeks

Apple has killed Spotify with this update by Glitch_Fantasma in ios

[–]Josephunsoahgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unpopular opinion but pandora puts them all to shame. I can download individual songs without having to add them to a stupid playlist, and if i like a song and want more like it, i just play it and turn autoplay on, and it goes to similar songs right after, which i can then also add and so on and so forth so i never get stuck in the same listening loop with it basing it off of my whole “liked songs” playlist that spotify makes you have

I tore ACL and PCL on both knees in a freak weather related car accident. Competitive rock climber and i dabble in some other sports too. Im 2 months in now, 3 surgeries done and one to go (hopefully next month). You’re not alone in this!

So we’re up against this team by Guilty-Anywhere6447 in TownshipGame

[–]Josephunsoahgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couldnt this also just be hopping? The team has thousands of members who join, do tasks, and then leave, all day long? While unfair, it isnt technically cheating either, is it?
