    Thank you!


    Also.... I was wondering if it counts when @Mipper 'toasts' or comments on one of your check-ins on Untappd?
    Because if so, I will go back and get those points too.

    I doubt that this love letter he sent me counts for anything, other than his love for me, which there are not enough points in the world for that... I love you girl

    Leith, I quickly tried to tally all of your points up. I think I arrived at +16, but there was also a -25 from @Mipper himself, so that nets you -9. Don't know if that's gonna cut it :wink:

    Jesse gave me a glass with that Spellbound logo on it and I really dig it. Very cool design.

    It is sign-up time. Who wants a box of goodies?

    NBO - SixterCAN trip #3


    If you would like to be in consideration to be the recipient of a box filled with 6 cans (and then some), please BM me your shipping address. If you would prefer to skip this trip and sign up for a future trip, don't send me your address and wait for the next person to post their NBO to sign up.

    Signup period ends at 8pm on Sunday, March 15th. At that time I will randomly select the recipient and start posting hints as to who it is. Box will be shipped as soon as I get it ready!

    Trip #1 - Pennsylvania (LehighAce06) --> Texas (rspauldi)
    Trip #2 - Texas (rspauldi) --> New Jersey (Jawas)
    Trip #3 - New Jersey (Jawas) --> ??????

    See official rules below....


    ----------------------------------------------
    How SixterCAN works:

    1) The current holder of the SixterCAN 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 a previous or current Locals BIF round.
    b) have not already received the SixterCAN box.

    2) After the signup period is over, the current holder will randomly (or using any criteria of their choosing) pick the next lucky recipient of the SixterCAN 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, @@LehighAce06 will be the final recipient (hopefully without him knowing that it is coming to him).

    3) The holder of the SixterCAN box will fill the interior box with high quality (preferably local) cans, 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) The outer boxes will also be filled with 'extras' or swag, please make sure to replace whatever you take; not necessarily exact, 'IPA for an IPA' or 'hat for a hat', but please keep in mind the quality of what was removed, as well as your target's distro.

    5) The box may also include a "challenge" beer. An envelope will be attached to the Challenge beer. Inside the envelope will be instructions on what activity needs to be completed BEFORE the recipient is allowed to unwrap/open the Challenge beer. The point is for it to be fun, for the group if not for the challengee, and for the bottle to be something extra nice that is earned as a reward for playing along for the Locals entertainment. Most importantly, the challenge is not mandatory, however the bottle cannot be opened until completion of the challenge, and not at all if the recipient passes on doing the challenge.

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

    7) 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.



    Please if you want to try Carton Beers, you'll want to sign up for this round. Not sure when I will actually close this out, but Ill give at least a week. 4/2/15 before making a last call post.

    Yes, yes it does. If only this were April 26 and not March 26, I'd suggest you get a crowler to bring for the bottle share.

    Not that they'll stop doing crowlers between now and the share, but for this particular option, do you think a crowler would last 5 weeks? Also, are we seriously only 5 weeks away? Nice!
     
  20. JNForsyth

    JNForsyth Initiate (0) Jan 3, 2013 Pennsylvania

    5 weeks is probably pushing it but I would think a crowler would last a lot longer than a standard growler.

    Yes, it's right around the corner.

    If they have anything interesting on tap the week before the share (they usually do), maybe I'll pick something up and bring along.
