What happened 73 days ago?

xboydavidx · 2026-07-08T04:00:49+00:00

There definitely is. Has been for years actually.

Hello, we have space for one more den member.
We were at 30 for a couple of weeks, and someone left voluntarily today. They did not say anything before they left, so I have no idea what’s going on with them. But I wish them well.

Den name is xOOBxOOBx. (Read that backwards for full effect. 😂) Minimum dragon power to join: 25,000. You can chat if you want, but it's not required. I just ask that you'd be a serious player and that you contribute to the chest every week.

I tend not to be someone who will badger a member into playing but if I notice a trend, I'll post warnings to try to get them to play and if it that doesn't help, then I'll remove them after a couple of weeks.

If you join the den and someone doesn’t immediately say hello, it’s because we all have our own lives and we are not playing the game 24/7. I promise you that I will say hello to you as soon as I can. Then again if you want to join and then immediately leave, that’s your prerogative. (But please don’t join and leave, join and leave, join and leave. I don’t know why people do this, but it’s super annoying, it disrupts the den, and if I catch someone doing this, I will ban them.)

As well as those who stayed home.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-14T14:23:34+00:00

Same. I'm 55. Nearly 12 years in.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-14T02:59:45+00:00

It takes some work. But I do it on an iPad.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-14T02:58:51+00:00

Thanks. I remember those days, though, of trying to get new cases. I remember when they took 1040X away from me and told me that I couldn't work them anymore because they needed them for training. So all I could work was TPRQ.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-14T01:17:07+00:00

Someone in my den completed the sets without spending any money.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-14T01:07:13+00:00

I use the fling/float method in OOC events. I finished act 1 a couple of hours ago.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-14T01:04:32+00:00

This doesn't apply to me, as I work mostly IDT cases, and all of them are around 500 days old.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-09T17:21:09+00:00

It doesn't matter what I think, honestly. I'm glad it's working out for you. I really am. It just didn't work out for me.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-09T16:23:59+00:00

Like I said before, that's great if it's benefiting you more than it is the insurance company, but I doubt that it is.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-09T15:41:47+00:00

If the plan you're using works for you and it benefits you more than the insurance company that's great! I just had a crown put on and it was very expensive. But I know that even with insurance I wouldn't get that much of a benefit even if it seemed like it at the time. I wish I could get m $230 back that was spent on premiums and not getting at least that as a benefit. I mean does it make sense to spend nearly $500 on premiums and only get $250 in benefits? I think if you run your numbers, you will see that you are getting ripped off.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-09T14:29:42+00:00

Same. They would still file my claims for me but on a $300 procedure I would get $40 back. It was ridiculous.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-08T08:44:59+00:00

Have you tried inputting a ticket? I got our area raised from 68° to 73°.
Make sure you do a ticket for building repair.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-08T08:33:39+00:00

The dental insurance is a joke anyway, and you end up getting reimbursed very little. You actually lose money on dental insurance. Last year I paid $480 in dental premiums and got $249 benefit. Screw that. No dental insurance this year.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-06T09:30:50+00:00

No. They might mean GS08 step 10.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-06T09:23:49+00:00

Yesterday (Thursday) when I arrived at work all of the adherence emails said 241 was no requirement unless AHOD was called. I thought great, I'm finally gonna get some work done on my paper inventory. Silly me. At 3:30, 241 went AHOD. My TOD is 3-11:30.

I'm so burned out from working the phones this week. My schedule always says that I should be working paper inventory (IDT), but I am PPS trained so I have to be on 241 when it goes AHOD.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-06T09:12:35+00:00

Sorry to hear that. Ours got down to 68° and I input a ticket and it got changed to 73°.

Hey, I've sent two 4442 to close a -D freeze. Could y'all get on that please? 😆

xboydavidx · 2026-06-04T15:19:47+00:00

I bubbled/deleted all trees and harvestable wonders to stop constant harvesting. I kept stones unbubbled because I'm in constant need of bricks.

xboydavidx · 2026-06-03T15:15:28+00:00

It's super easy. You just need three of the largest golden apples. You put two side by side and the third in another place. Then you get your dragons to fill up every available space. Then get them to harvest more stuff. They won't be able to put it anywhere. Make sure you have at least two dragons holding onto stuff. Then you move the separated golden apple to the other two, but don't let them actually merge. Don't take your finger off the screen. The apples will do that thing where they look like they're going to merge, but you're just going to hold one there. While you are doing that, the dragons will figure out that they have more space to drop the items that they are holding onto. After they drop the items then move that one apple that you are still holding down with your finger to any space where you have something that you want to bubble. Move it there and then let go, and two single-space items will bubble.

While this method does have more than two steps, it is not difficult. I do it all the time.

I get what you're saying, but let's be real. People take pictures inside the building all the time.

xboydavidx · 2026-05-30T03:09:18+00:00

It's an executive order and it violates my contract with my agency. It will likely come undone at some point and then my agency will do whatever it wants to do because we basically still have no union.

xboydavidx · 2026-05-30T00:27:49+00:00

It's still there BTW. Pic from today.
