    Now that I know you're in Baltimore (not, say, Ocean City, MD) I can rule you out as being West of me and shipping West... so that leaves ONLY @Poorpatz as my sender. :slight_smile:

    Well, that would work if my last name was Helm... :wink:

    Hah! I assumed it was, but now that I look at it again, I'm guessing it's a play on the name "Wilhelm"?

    I'm an idiot. So I didn't have to go through all that time thinking of a famous person named Helm?

    But more importantly, does @mkhartnett know your last name?

    Damn thought I had you pegged as my sender but now I need to go back to the drawing board. Cincinnati is west but slightly south of Baltimore

    Thank you for making me feel a little less like an idiot.

    From this hint.... "Hint #4 My target has post to this thread fewer times than me" ... at that point I had posted 5 times... and it was only his second post...

    So have we both eliminated everyone as my potential sender now? :wink:

    The organizer of the BIF should be able to confirm that you indeed do have a sender. Unfortunately his presence is somewhat... inconsistent.

    The coordinates is how I confirmed it myself because it is really close. Cheers buddy will be on the lookout! Love the Crab Chips but a Crab Cake from G&M would be better :wink:

    Hmmm. That is weird. Because I had you "assigned to" somebody, and thought I had identified 21 pairs, and know which state everybody is shipping to.

    But your logic certainly makes sense. Maybe @_RL_ was in the same math/counting class as @The_Craft_Deviant_Rob ?

    ...yea I'm wondering if he may actually be my sender... even though I eliminated him...

    Is it possible to like the same post twice?

    It's also possible that he composed his post and then walked away or got distracted without sending it; and that by the time he posted you had contributed multiple times. In theory, anyway.

    And actually, his clues are pretty straightforward -- Western half of the country, target's state having at least 2 of the same vowel, and Maine Lunch as a want knock it down to 2 possible targets, and you're one of them.

    yep. old nickname from college that never went away.

    Maybe not. It's not too hard to figure out if you go to my profile information. I didn't even think that you might not know it.

    I gave up on _RL_'s target because his clues conflicted and eliminated everyone if you include "posted less than me" clue (unless I missed something).

    Hey you! Out there in my yard delivering beer gaining lard can you feel me?...
    Hey you! Standing on my grass with burning feet and aching ass, can you feel me?...
    Hey you! Don't help them to stop all the beer. We won't give in. We'll be right here...
    Hey you! Out there in your truck sitting saying what the fuck, do not touch me...
    Hey you! with you ear against the box waiting to call someone out would you tell on me?...
    Hey you! You will help and carry the brew!...
    But it was against the rules you say...
    The porch was too high as you can see, no matter how hard you tried you cannot catch me...
    And the wort ate into my brain...
    Hey you! out there on the road. Always doing what your told, you will beer me!...
    Hey you! out there beyond my porch, don't be breaking bottles in that box. You will help me!...
    Hey you! You will carry the box, you will deliver them all!...
    Together we trade, good beer and all...

    I love me some Floyd...
