    So i traded to get those Alpine beers and got a duplicate set for myself. I should have done a better quality control test before sending them, sadly i was not impressed with the alpine bottles. I believe they are still having issues with their bottling line as they all seemed under carbonated when i drank them over the last two days.

    I'm not quite done with you just yet. I'll be working on box #2. More wants to follow :grinning:

    I must have missed the drop off time as it's still meandering its way to the Northeast - expect a shipment Monday (after 7 days of travel!)

    Hint 9: Was my target split from 915?

    Well, I have met you IP, but I am sending to BigLobo. Do you fit the criteria of either of the other 2 possibilities?

    Picked up some beer/swag/glassware for my target today. First box will go out early next week. No timetable yet for second box, still trying to iron out a few details in my trade. It will probably be super late past the deadline. But it will be worth it... :grinning:

    I think many in this BIF will receive packages after the deadline, but the minimum will be satisfied beforehand. That is what I am planning. Btw, not that it is necessary with the group that Brandon assembled, but what is the minimum?

    Waiting on a piece of swag so that box will be going out later.

    I just picked up another beer for my bitch at the brew pub today, a full day after the release party along with a glass from said brewery. Headed back to Philly tomorrow and hope to have the boxes out by Wednesday at the latest. Just need to pick up growlers.

    So, my apologies to my target as I've been awful quiet and horrible with the clues. Here are the stats on box #1 heading out today if all goes as planned:

    Bottles - 12
    Ounces - 281
    Wants % - 100%
    Avg BA Score - 97.5 (a cool 98.6 without the outlier want at 85)
    Avg rAvg - 4.47

    My target and I have never traded, but I recently received a delicious growler-only beer from his state courtesy of another trading partner. I once watched a baseball game in his state after winning a lot of cash from some generous donors at the poker table on a riverboat casino. I asked for the best seat at the box office and ended up being the only one in my row, about 5 rows behind home plate on a beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon. Assuming the box goes out today, hints will be coming daily until it arrives on the porch. If my FedEx math is correct, that will be Friday.

    Box #2 and schwag are already in the works, but it might take a little bit of time to really make you my bitch so be patient. Rest assured, I am relentless and I'm on a mission from God!

    To whom it may concern,

    I am planning on being out of town this weekend, starting on Thursday afternoon. I will be returning late Sunday night. To my bitch, I am planning on getting your box in the mail tomorrow, but it may be Wednesday when it's all said and done. I will update in here either way. To my sender, if you could arrange my box to not get here while I'm out of town, it would be much appreciated.

    <3

    My bitch is going to have a couple extra days to get ready for some heavy lifting. We have a cold front here right now and it's heading East to my target. Don't want the boxes traveling in cold trucks for several days. Looking at dropping off boxes Wednesday.
