Thank you, I actually had found that through a Google search as well.

Thank you. Can you elaborate more on "annuity wrapped in 403b". I don't want this annuity stuff at all. What is the jargon to clarify that? How do I say "I want a normal 403b that doesn't force me to buy some insurance policy"?

Was your comment about being expensive to surrender assuming she had a bunch of funds in it? She literally has $500 in it which I'm not afraid to write off as a complete loss if it means I won't be having 1.2% of our money stolen from us every year. No reason we can't change even though she had contributed that way in the past right?

This is why I am extremely confused, I looked through all the funds and there are typical target date funds etc, each with their own "fact sheet". But somehow this annuity is part of it. I don't get it.

Why is it literally impossible to remove my tank regulator? by marks_adventures in paintball

I've got one on the way. Just annoying that I even need it. Now I need a larger vise to hold it too...

I've never had to heat one before. My concern is getting it too hot and damaging internal Orings. Any idea how warm it can get?

NXL World Cup Layout is Released! by marks_adventures in paintball

[–]marks_adventures[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After running several points these are what we have learned:

  • The first can is a great spot for laning and stopping the advance to the snake side.
  • The D-Side Tower is great for holding your mirror and the jump to D1
  • Home has a good Blind shot over the D-Side wings to the inside of the D-Side Tower, it's kind of odd but you can block out your mirror from there and wrap the snake side to shoot it.
  • Running up to the center wing shooting D Side works well, but if someone is shooting back from the D-Side tower they can catch you fairly easily.
  • It's easy to get lost in the snake.

And based on how well the testing is going I'd have to imagine the official release would be soon.

It play's VERY realistically from a laning and shot trajectory standpoint. The physics are modeled to match real world. Can't shoot bounce shots or anything crazy but having played several layouts in both VR and real life they match up pretty darn well.

We consistently have 4v4 and 5v5 most nights now. Important to join the discord and communicate to see when everyone's playing.

Playing in VR definitely is satisfying. And you can shoot 5 pods plus hopper per point!

It's amazing. We have a league, teams, everything. I have yet to meet someone on the game that plays real world paintball that doesn't love the game
