    I'm totally cool with Beernads and I (same points) each getting a box...wish I would have ninja-edited that into my original post. I also agree with not changing the "rules" after the fact. It really comes down to what OP meant by "points" - if things were being deferred to the Yahoo scoring system, then 1-6 stands with no ties. If it's just total points, then there are 2 ties. I do nothing save for seek clarification. :slight_smile:

    From my understanding its Total score. In this BIF Picks should hold no weight in the ranking.

    No way. I was totally kidding. We split 6 boxes each. The tie-breaker scores was just me attempting to be funny/greedy.

    Nah but the picks were used as a tiebreaker per the Yahoo scoring system...that's all.

    19th out of 64th is far better than I expected not watching one college game this season....

    Congrats Guys. I had fun with this BIF (even though I out-smarted myself and threw out a terrible bracket).

    Is it wrong for me to hope that someone destroys my porch?

    I would like to personally thank all shitty Michigan fans for leaving all that money on the table instead of bringing it home to the Big10! Go BUCKS!!!

    Whoever eats my box should be pleased unless they hate good beer...

    I wanted to wait for the hints and hauls thread, but my excitement for the box I'm sending to my target can no longer be contained. 150 oz of commercial brew, average BA score over 96, including 6 wants, including this:

    and a couple of my homebrews. Should be shipping today or tomorrow. Cheers!

    don't know why image didn't work in last post. I had this last night to check for quality control issues:

    Heading to FedEx now. My target cast a pretty wide net and doesn't have many specific wants. The 96 oz come from 4 states and each of the 6 beers are a completely different style. He said he likes pretty much everything, so I'm throwing out the kitchen sink. I apologize for being too lazy to compute avg. BA score. At least two of the beers are highly sought after in my area.
