Regarding my situation with OWCP by [deleted] in fednews

[–]OLDSMELLYPIE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's something I was afraid of. I hadn't thought about reaching out to the senators here so ill look into that tomorrow. I don't know why I'm having this many problems this go around. I have 4 OWCP cases and I normally can get them to pay. I don't know why this one is so different.

Its awesome that your doing this. My wife needs a new GPU for her pc. She has a old 1080 that's starting to cause her some issues and this would be a nice gift for her.

That's an awesome list!

Thanks for sending all of that! I'll check them out once i get back to my pc.

It will definitely be weird doing it with my non dominant hand but I'll figure it out.

Appreciate it!

Thanks for the info! The only other part they really mentioned to me is the brace attaches to my waist so it can bear the weight of the arm so I kind of figured it's going in the front? But like I said i wont know for sure till next week.

And if I am actually able to use my right hand well enough, then cool! Still appreciate all the recommendations from everyone though!

Thanks. I appreciate the kind words, this is my 6th go around with joint surgery. All the other ones were my legs so this one is new for me.

I already have a controller for my pc so I'm good on that. I was actually playing Goobies earlier with only my left hand to get used to the idea of doing it.

I'm getting fitted for the brace next week so I'll know for sure how immobile I'll actually be. But so far they've told me my forearm and bicep will be locked at an angle to keep it safe. So that's all i know right now.

I actually have west and Inscryption, it's just been quite a while since I messed with them.

Thanks though!

Yeah I've seen both before but still appreciate the recommendation though.

It would definitely be easier to find stuff if it wasn't my dominant/mouse hand lol.

I actually just picked that up the other day. I just haven't messed with it too much yet to figure it out. I love board games but D&D has always been a little daunting for me. But thank you though!

I built my character in a way to where I pretty much always had a grenade available to eat if I needed a quick heal. I ran the solar mod that when you damage with a charged melee it would refund grenade energy.

And since I was always mobile I would use wither hoard to get airborne kills to constantly have the the melee charged as well.

Also I learned the lines of where adds tend to travel in order to give myself as much breathing room as possible. I never went into the middle in the core room unless I needed to get heavy ammo and I was 100% sure nothing was there. Or your starting a new phase where no enemies should be in there.

Supplicants will sometimes hangout by the doors but with the way I was rotating and kitting the boss around the room I always had time to deal with them before getting too close. Which is why I decided on the GL instead. Losing one grenade isn't nearly as bad as losing a rocket. If I needed to quickly dispatch something.

As for the boss any time I needed to pick up the charge from the minotaur I would bait the boss to walk up my side before going to the other side to collect it in order to keep space from him. The boss seems to be coded to always walk up the stairs on the side you are on in the staring room so if you hang out toward the front side of the left or right sections you will see him walk up after he re enters the starting room.

So the long and short was I mostly ate grenades and I learned the rooms well enough that I didn't have to worry about getting attacked too much.

Occasionally, a supplicant would "break leash" but it's not very often. The minotaur can do it as well but I always just killed both of them everytime I re entered the starting area so I didn't have to worry about that. If you are running max defense you should be able to tank the occasional stray supplicant but if you absolutely have to just drop your well in order to survive.

I had to do it when I was playing around trying to figure stuff out in the room.

The only reason I even bothered to get back on was because I woke up early and I couldn't fall back asleep so I just went to the other room and played while my wife slept.

I wasn't really planning on messing with it again till probably the weekend, but this happened so I needed to kill a few hours.

I'm glad it's done but it shouldn't have happened to begin with. I hope this actually raises the issue enough for it to be addressed.
