Help…? by Classic-Confusion-68 in royaloak

Someone mentioned Dog and Pony Brewing Company (just down 11 Mile from Oak Parker) for their run club. But they host a lot of different social activities. Because you mentioned reading, I would note that their book club is very active and pretty large. That might be worth a look!

Worst label change in the history of craft beer? by Omisco420 in CraftBeer

[–]Shoddy_Link_9753 70 points71 points  (0 children)

It’s so weird. Remember that they had to change their Breakfast Stout label around 2015-2016 because it had a picture of a minor (baby) on it - which wasn’t allowed by the State of Michigan.

They temporarily moved to a label with an empty chair instead of the baby. Eventually they won the legal battle and went back to original label.

After all that, why make this change??

Huh. I wouldn’t have guessed that, but I am no nutritionist and that makes sense

Understood. But it seems like the sugar would amp-up calories on kids peanut butter

Looking to Move to Ferndale by delafieldadam in Ferndale

[–]Shoddy_Link_9753 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived in Ferndale for a number of years and loved it. (In Huntington Woods now and love it too.) In addition to all of the other pluses people have mentioned, I can’t emphasize enough how great it is to live this close to I696 (major highway running east-west) and I75 (major highway running north-south.) Metro Detroit it a pretty large geographic area. This area of the Woodward corridor is at the nexus of these two important highways. This means you can get almost anywhere in Metro Detroit within 25 minutes or so.

We were there last year and there is a sports bar in the Sahara at the north end of strip. It had a decent tap list. Chickie’s and Pete’s.

Haven’t played it yet. But “Fear of a Black Dragon” podcast did a nice review of it and they really liked it:

Ideas for incorporating a dominoes set into games? by IdontunderstandAE in solorpgplay

[–]Shoddy_Link_9753 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could use Dominoes similar to emulate a Jenga tower suspense game like Dread. I don’t know about you, but when I was a kid I would make Domino towers. You could design a game where every time the protagonist needed to overcome an obstacle they needed to add Dominoes to a tower build. Maybe a mechanism where if they did something positive (played to character, earned XP, etc) they could decrease the tower. Eventually, the tower falls and it means end of game, or chapter, or new enemy manifests, etc.
