    And now that we have the final list, here's the full rules for the LIF within a BIF within a BIF within a Box.

    1. To participate, you have to send the winner a 22oz bottle of your choosing that is rated with a BA score of 85 or higher.
    2. By Sunday (9/22/13), provide a guesstimate as to how far the box of goodies will travel by the time it reaches the final target.
    3. The person who comes closest to the overall distance travelled but does not go over wins.
    4. All participants who do not win must send their bottle to the winner within two weeks of the end of the LIF.

    For all those that already provided estimates, since there were additions to the BIF, feel free to repost a new estimate. As the box hits each target, I will provide an update with how far the box has travelled to date. Distance travelled will be calculated using the shortest route from sender to target provided by Google Maps.

    Distance travelled as of 9/18/13:
    1. Haywire to Tertullian007 - 957mi

    I see I've been moved up in the list. Didn't need to be done, but I'm looking forward to a (presumed) more intact shipper box!

    I'll start my first hint now. My box will NOT be going to Haywire (sorry man)

    I thought you wanted an earlier shipping date. Ah well.

    No worries. Date is of little concern. Just excited to be a part of this and see where it all goes.
