    Depending on the answer to #5 and when spring break is for you, I'm going to be pretty upset if we don't at least grab a beer! Foothills, OHB, Wicked Weed, NoDa, all those answers are within an hour and a half of me so can meet up if you have time!

    If its more like Front St, Fullsteam, Trophy, or something, then you're on your own as they're far away :slight_smile:

    Just how difficult is it to assign targets? I imagine it's easy starting off, but by the end you might end up with some less-than-favorable distro/location matchups and have to rethink things.

    Correct. It takes more time than you think it would :slight_smile:...and having to take into account who people have received from and sent to in the first four rounds....but luckily @Mikexw made things a little easier with a really nice spreadsheet he sent me.

    Horizontalhood has left my possession. So next up, Sixterhood!

    Trip #13 – South Carolina --> New Jersey (complete)
    Trip #14 - New Jersey -->

    See official rules below....

    ----------------------------------------------
    How Sixterhood works:

    1) The current holder of the Sixterhood box will make a post in the Locals BIF thread saying that the signup period for the next Trip is open and will be open for 2 or 3 days. Anyone that would like to be a potential target for the box would send their address information in a BM to the current holder of the box. To be eligible the person must have:
    a) participated in Locals BIF rounds 1, 2 (summer 6'er), 3, or 4 (winter 6'er, current round)
    b) have not already received the Sixterhood box.

    2) After the signup period is over, the current holder will randomly pick the next lucky recipient of the Sixterhood box. They will not announce this person nor the number of people that signed up, but instead will start posting hints as to where the box is going (BIF style hints). If no one signs up to be the next recipient then, as the original founder, heystevec will be the final recipient (hopefully without him knowing that it is coming to him).

    3) The holder of the Sixterhood box will fill the box with high quality local bottles or wants and ship it to the target. Make it a kickass box, but with this group of people I know we won't have to worry about that. Also, add the targets name to the tracking board in the box and add any 'decorations' that you wish to help commemorate the box's visit to your state.

    4) Once the box is received by the target, they will post the pr0n for all to enjoy.

    5) Start over at #1

    You do not have to enter every signup period. You can pick and choose when you want to be in consideration to be the next recipient. This would be nice if the current holder of the box is from your own state or an adjoining state or if you are going to be out of town for a while or whatever. Jump in and out as you please.

    @heystevec Hagerstown, Liquor Locker and Wooden Keg, Wooden Keg usually has pretty good stuff behind the counter or in the back. If their "beer" guy is in, John I think, he usually has some really cool shit stashed in his office.

    LIF Update:

    And the winner is @Vinithing

    The ABV ended up lower than I anticipated at 8.04%. Vinithing guessed 8.1, which puts him at a difference of 0.06. @PA-Michigander was a close second with a difference of 0.09. @Tee2Grn was 3rd with a difference of 0.1.

    Congrats @Vinithing guess it's time to pay you back for the awesome BIF box you sent out during the last big round!
    If you could PM me your address and preferred styles.
