    Btw, I mentioned I was going to run a LIF after having just won one. So here it is, I hope you're paying close attention.

    This LIF will only be open to us LOCALS (and any regular lurkers who have posted at least 3 times @Mipper in the thread) but I'm gonna do something different.

    The other day Kevin posted a link to a great cause being run by @RayOhioFelton raising awareness for Cystic Fibrosis. Link:http://www.beeradvocate.com/community/threads/2015-cf-lif.251037/

    I don't know Ray, but I've participated in a BIF with him and he seemed like a great guy. I want to help in any way I can, and I think giving back or donating in whatever way possible is one of the best things that make us human. I am not boasting, but I have already donated and I've seen quite a few other Locals contribute as well; and that is just amazing.

    So, here is how you can win these two bottles, plus probably something else in one of those boxes in the background
    [​IMG]

    1st: Donate to Ray's cause, even if it's just $10. For every $10 you spend, you'll get an entry into the drawing. If you've already donated, you're already entered to win. If you've donated $50, you're entered 5 times. By donating to win my LIF, you're also entering for a chance to win a number of other completely amazing boxes that have been contributed by a number of other BA's.

    2: Get other people to donate in your name. Just like Ray's thread, he encourages you to get others to sign up and tag you by putting your BA user name on the board.

    I will close this down on March 31st and tally up all of the entries. I will keep a spread sheet and list each # of entries you have and then I will randomize the order (with @Louis121 watching). Who ever is the 42nd name on the list will win (if you haven't noticed by now, that is my favorite number).

    I apologize for the long post, but I hope you stuck with it and choose to participate.

    Yep, I'm totally out of control this round. I matched on 3 of the 4; I had @wheelzntoys sending to the wrong guy, and had another one wrong (which upon further review was another random box which I had flagged as a problem guess). And all this is part of the reason I had eliminated all possible targets for one other sender; I suspect hope that all this stuff will fall together when I dig into it tomorrow.

    OK -- you are the other wrong "random box" I just mentioned -- so maybe I am right on my guess, just wrong on that it's not 100% confirmed. Now I have to figure out how many different people you have recently sent to...

    how are you going to track it? Send you a BM? Maybe Ray can provide you the list...

    If you go to the donations page, there is a running scroll on the right side that shows you who has donated. Some people just put their name but not their monetary donation. If you donated but didn't want to disclose how much, please BM me and I'll keep it on the honor system.

    Let's try to help my target, who wants to know and, who,I briefly thought, was on to me.

    Hint: According to my "research", you could have taken the same picture with your beer tonight as I did with mine earlier today.
    Also, I am shipping east.

    It is only the top 10. I'd say have people send you a BM and if you would like I can confirm from your list. Let me know if that works for this.

    My state has 3 teams that have won multiple mens basketball championships. Fingers crossed!

    Which is why I keep a list of hints for each person and mark each square that I mark off with a hint number so I can somewhat easily undo assumptions that were wrong. Plus I have a couple standard numbers I use to denote targets not being in the same state as senders, etc. But I'm not tracking this round at all, too damned busy.

    That would be awesome. I'll reach out to you on April 1st to sync up and make sure I've got the right numbers, thanks Ray.

    Its definitely a lot more than 10 that shows up in the scroll. I did notice a lot of the people in this thread on the scroll!

    I am out of 2014 BCBCS as I gave away or drank all mine. Hopefully someone will reach out to you. And FWIW I still prefer 2013 over 2014 BCBCS.


    How was it? I've got this along with a few similar bottles in the fridge for tomorrow night.

    I'll be there around 11am with Seth and another guy or four to get a case or so and probably open one inside. You?

    Hint 2: There are more than 50 wants on my targets list
    Hint 3: HoppySeb is not my target
    Hint 4: Just so you know, I have shipped beer to this state before...
    Hint 5: Not shipping before March 16th... and there is a reason why
    Hint 6: Florida, Virginia, Texas, California, not shipping beer to any of those states
    Hint 7: Ohio, Illinois, not you either...
    Hint 8: Really target? No Casey on your wants? Well, if you don't want any, you won't get any...
