Sixtercan signup!!

NBO - SixterCAN trip #8

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 midnight Thursday October 15th. At that time I will select the recipient and start posting hints as to who it is. Box will be shipped out at a TBD date, most likely sometime in November.

Trip #1 - Pennsylvania (LehighAce06) --> Texas (rspauldi)
Trip #2 - Texas (rspauldi) --> New Jersey (Jawas)
Trip #3 - New Jersey (Jawas) --> Connecticut (Littlelotte88)

----------------------------------------------

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.

 

I will go with 40/40 Thanks!

Very nice getting to chat for a little Dennis. I was looking forward to the ninja pint. next time.



And my LIF box is packed up and will be shipped today during my lunch break. enjoy @xICooRsYIx

 

Guys, it's already 10 EST and we still haven't had a LIF offered yet today. Must be the holiday. So:

LIF ALERT
I've got a Trillium (content hint?) growler in my bag now to get filled after work and I have plans this weekend to go to Tree House (content hint?) and fill some Tree House growlers. The question is:
How many ounces would I have if I filled all of the growlers that I currently own?

For those of you from non-Puritan states, in MA breweries can only fill their own growlers. So my Trillium growlers are useless at Tree House.

Open to anybody who has participated in a Locals round or recently joined but has shipped a LIF. Accepting entries until I check BA Friday morning.

 

Wow, can't pass this one up.

I'll guess 354oz.

Thanks for the chance!

 

960 oz
Thanks for the chance!

 

I will go with 512 ounces.

 

I'll go with 576. Thanks!

 

Thanks for the chance!
I'll say 626oz

 

I'll go with 734 ounces, thanks!

 

Awesome 417oz!

 

Just based on my own glass collection, dealing with the same brewery-specific growlers, I'll say 677oz of empty glass. Will forward along if I win.

 

430oz thanks fo the chance!

 

I guessed my personal current growler volume(rounding 1L to 32oz and 2L to 64oz).

652.2oz

Thanks!

 

375oz thanks for the chance!

 

480 thanks for the chance
