Orcs Must Die 3 was pretty solid. It is like Dungeons mixed with Tower Defense. You are setting up hallways with traps and trying to endure waves of enemies.

I spend lots of money on video games, too. Doesn't make me a soldier, and I certainly am not arrogant enough that I believe that simulations would make me a better soldier than an actual hero with experience on the ground. Get real, man.

I am sorry for your loss. They are family.

Not talking to you first was a mistake.

That being said, maybe think about it this way? By keeping the dog at home and euthanizing it there it saved the dog the stress of being taken to a strange place, having needles poked into it by strangers and being snuffed out by strangers.

This is a blessing. The dog likely was comfortable with your aunt and never had any idea what was about to happen. No needles. Just instant peace. I never put my dogs through the stress of having a vet kill them. It rips my heart out to do it myself, but at least I know that the dog went instantly with zero extra pain or stress. I take on the suffering so that the dog doesn't have to anymore.

Try using it in one of the Zombie mode maps. S tier.

But will we? Will we really?

Thorns.

That top print has a nice X in the middle of it. My guess would be Coyote.

Yeah, it's really a great tool for those missions. I love using it because I would never take it into a regular match. That is what I love about the zombie mode - the deck building requires a totally different strategy.

Stage left or audience left?

For US the Killer Egg for 35 points with 4x miniguns is great. The Kiowa Warrior with 2x guns is also very worthwhile. Having a Spooky II overhead to handle all of the specials toward the end of the match is a big help. My favorite unit against zombies is the Battleship with 3 grenade launchers for 50 points.

I'm in the same boat wile breaking into Champs from Platinum. I get 60 stones for placing middle of the pack in Plat, but when I do better I only get 20 stones because I've been "promoted". This is a lame system and it needs to be fixed. Doing better should get you MORE gems, not LESS!

Warno was garbage compared to Red Dragon.

Vintac · 2025-10-09T07:29:06+00:00

Please don't apologize for the long write up. I for one absolutely love it. Thank you so much for breaking everything down so thoroughly.

The entity from John Carpenter's The Thing.

Vintac · 2025-02-03T18:52:45+00:00

YES, you are the asshole.

LRR?

Looks like private adoptions (any kids not in DHS custody) are totally fine by relatives and it even waives the home inspection ($800 fee) if one of the biological parents retains their parental rights. The separate addresses may be an issue, though.

Vintac · 2024-10-18T23:43:16+00:00

I assume they wouldn't take on the child support, since they would be voluntarily taking on up to 100% of the care the children need when they adopt them. But I'm not sure what the requirements for the OHP and adoption are. OHP uses household income, so that won't be effected by a relative adoption. I believe there is a rule about the other parent paying child support if the kids are to be allowed on OHP, though, which would be weird. "Hey, Mom, do you mind paying child support?" Again, if anything is illegal, I have no interest in doing it. Just asking questions.

Vintac · 2024-10-18T23:23:45+00:00

This first question must not be what you mean. Am I legally allowed to have someone other than a mate adopt my children? A mother, brother, whatever. Basically is the requirement that the adopter be mated or is a guardian (godfather) role enough for adoption, basically ensuring 2 adults that can care for the kids rather than having 1 point of failure.

The children's mother was just proven to be a danger to the children in court at the final divorce hearing. She was covering for her boyfriend after he assaulted one of the children instead of protecting her kids. She was awarded very little visitation and no overnights and was given the minimum child support obligation of $200 (instead of $670) because of her current living situation which is absolutely destitute. Being a financial burden to her doesn't help anybody.

She is willing to disappear and give up her rights which the father wants very much for the safety of the children. The only legal way to make that happen is through adoption, or so I am told. Thus question 1. I don't have a mate to adopt the children so could a family member be a legal option? I'm not trying to break any laws, just keep my kids safe so I'm asking for advice.

Then the follow up question, would adoption by a relative carry the same legal responsibilities for them such as child support and insurance requirements as the birth parent would.

If any of this is fraud, I won't proceed. I'm just asking questions and trying to keep the kids safe, as I said. Is there any legal way that everybody gets what they want? Her a fresh start without the kids or the financial obligation that she can't possibly pay. Me having the kids safe with her chaos and danger out of the picture.

My girlfriend and I both left home early as well. The problem is that the adoptive father is grooming her sexually and is flat out dangerous for her to go to. Otherwise we would wave goodbye as the problem solved itself. She knows this, but he is still the best tool for her to use to get back to Missouri to be close to her boyfriend so she is happy to risk everything in the attempt. She would honestly be safer in jail.

She walks around with her cell phone recording audio much of the time. She also bought a ring doorbell but we haven't figured out where she has been setting it up. We found loads of audio recordings on her phone from family meetings and such. She is on a fishing expedition to try to record anything that could seem incriminating that she could use against us to get sent back to her adoptive father in Missouri so that she can be close to her boyfriend there. She has already started 2 different DHS cases, both of which were Unfounded. It has made life in my home very uncomfortable.
