    On a side note: Is anyone here planning to attend GABF this year? Just curious, as I am heading out with the wife and some friends for it.

    well my recipient hasn';t figured me out yet so i'll throw another one out there

    one of buddies (mules) got back from a trip to VT, problem?? I got some beers to put in your box but after checking your extensive list of hads, guess what you've had them, but rated them highly.
    like this post if you still want them!!!

    I'm hoping to, but it all depends on how well our dog Willies doing.He's got 2 torn ACL's and having surgery next week.If he's walking better I'll try to talk the bride into going.

    That would be sweet! We booked a big condo downtown near the expo center. Keep me updated. I think were gonna go out a couple days early to hit Avery & Casey.

    @Greeny87 I keep up with Patrick. He's good - just been busy with a new job. He said he'll try to get in the next round.

    Hint #1: target state has (at least) one team for in each of the four major u.s. pro sports.
    Hint #2: it's almost like 'get a free pepsi or coca-cola in a lottery'.
    Hint #3: shipping to north of the Mason Dixon line (drawn in it's entirety)
    Hint #4: i have not yet traded with my target, or IP traded while in my target's state
    Hint #5: target's state has more than two different vowels

    I just got it, and possibly tomorrow will know the target, otherwise Wed. very cool, gotta admit this was driving me nuts, not knowing where to begin.

    Tried a bunch of combinations (pretty quick in Excel, otherwise it's a lot of work by hand), still no right one. The number of permutations of 2x4 numbers can be unwieldy, unless your number swaps are minor. Will keep tryin' though.

    Lol, looking back at my notes, I eliminated you as my sender (biking hrs and number of state hint confirmed), then saw a code and got excited to break it, forgetting this ain't mine to crack :slight_smile:

    Finally figured yours out. It was racking my brain. Pretty sure I know who you are shipping to.
