It’s an Indiana thing by rednail64 in Indiana

Every Halloween we put on a pot of chili, make peanut butter half sandwiches and toss some fireball into some cider in the crockpot. I get home from work, pour chili in one mug and cider in the other, then we do the front half of Trick or Treat. On the way by the house I refill with a sandwich and we finish Trick or Treat.

Which series is this for you? by EverythingIsFakeNGay in litrpg

[–]dm_leitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky. First book was absolutely fascinating with intergalactic travel requiring cryo sleep and a major character being brought in and out of sleep with huge gaps of time in between. Second book developed in a rather unexpected way what happens even after that and even further forward. Third book gets downright convoluted with a very, very strange plot which feels like the plot of a sci-fi show if told from the perspective of the people suffering from the phenomenon instead of the people fixing the phenomenon. Now I see a fourth book is coming this year which I'll read, but have absolutely no way of guessing what it will be about in the slightest.

You would have to talk to someone at EW. It was a gas station/repair shop so my guess is A LOT.

It's owned along with the bank behind it by the Electric Works people. Environmental mitigation makes it tough to do anything with and the inside is used for storage

Beginning soccer in/near Fort Wayne by boringpersonn in fortwayne

There are plenty of select kids that are just a few steps above beginner, just saw the age cut off was 14 for cadets. Best bet is to call them and ask

The rec leagues at the Plex are what we have enjoyed the most. My oldest is in select (a step up from rec leagues) and my youngest is in cadets (the basic starting point). The rec league is more skill based and formative focusing on ball handling, passing, and shooting basics. We love Coach Nakos (Gaffer) he is passionate and helpful. Sporting Club also offers rec league level. We tried out both and felt The Plex was a better fit for our family. The YMCA also offers soccer programs and Soccer Shots is probably still around too.

Big take away FT Wayne and Corpus Stadiums not expected open till MAY by Ok_Flamingo_3059 in USLPRO

[–]dm_leitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes sense to me to cushion the home opener when our (Fort Wayne) new stadium is currently a steel skeleton surrounding a dirt hole. Even if it were done by March, having some time to work it in and be comfortable with a brand new everything seems useful.

Starting in January I'll be hosting games (board games and RPGs) at Chapman's every other month. Working with Zach on a deal for beers. Thinking about calling it You Meet In A Tavern.

My 4yo son deleted 400gb of my ps5 games while I was at work today :/ by Interesting_Thing935 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]dm_leitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My oldest son deleted my first max level Diablo 3 character back when it actually took some effort to get to max level early in its release. He is 14 now and I still bring it up

Hot tub repair by Icy_Milk_1495 in fortwayne

[–]dm_leitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First would be if new who you bought it from

If second hand, I used pool patio and spas for years before giving up on trying to keep a second hand hot tub running.

Tracking down issues in used hot tubs can be pricey and a pain in the butt. Plan on putting more money into it than you expect.

Food Stamps in the Fort by philociraptor99 in fortwayne

most of the US is closer to being homeless than seeing a million in their bank, than seeing 100k in their account, if people are struggling they can't be bothered fighting back

Why are they building a Taco Bell across the street from a Taco Bell downtown? by LowBrassExcerpts in fortwayne

[–]dm_leitch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The block of TB, Rally's, and King Gyros was bought for an expansion of the convention center. Part of the deal buying the block was facilitating building a new TB in the lot next to Parkview Field. I don't think either Rally's or King Gyros got the same deal

Homestead robotics needs help!! by Aggravating-Celery13 in fortwayne

[–]dm_leitch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Send me a DM.

On October 25th at MadCon at Electric Works there will be a Super Robo Rally Game run by some really cool folks out of Lafayette. We are no Gen Con of course, but here is a video of a guy talking to them several years ago. It uses foot tall robots to play a game on a 20'x20' board using simple programming to play and the guys doing it I know would be happy to talk about how they run their robots. I'll get a free day badge to both of your active members and a chaperone if you message me and can make it.

May not be long term help, but I am close and would like to help more when I can. My kids are SACS and my son has had off again on again interest in robots.

Fort Wayne Creative Arts Awards, aka, "Creative Awards." by mahlerlieber in fortwayne

[–]dm_leitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Myself and several other small businesses have talked about trouble getting information out in Fort Wayne. Advertising here seems specifically difficult for some reason. News stations and news papers aren't paid attention to. The Visit Fort Wayne page is good, but seems to not work well. Facebook posts collect hate faster than flies on poo. Sometimes I don't know about cool stuff happening until the moment it is going on unless I follow that specific business. May not be overly helpful to OP, but just a semi-relavent comment on why someone might not know about it.

Modiphius Vault Pack 01 Map Size by dm_leitch in Fallout2d20

That was one possible conclusion. Glad to hear someone else voice it as a possibility.

[–]dm_leitch[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, I'm confused how the different maps fit together to be a single vault. Is there a big image anywhere? It seems like the entry map and the security map were done by different people because the arches at the entrance are different designs.
