    Now I am second guessing my call out... @Greeny87 ticks a lot of check marks... and maybe @MunsonRoyE vague clues fit

    Thank god @JBowenGeorgia made it easy for me. It’s a lot more fun watching you all pull @Joenap419 when I’m not doing it too.

    Hint #8 One of us has been the other one's target before
    Hint #9 I've given out more hints than you at this stage

    Hint #12 You haven't given any recent hints to your target, unless they already guessed you

    I'm down to 4 very interesting possible senders. Think I'll just sit back and see how this plays out in the coming days :slight_smile:

    Hint #3- A famous athlete who was born in your state, played for my favorite baseball team for the majority of his career

    Hint #5- The above player has also made a guest appearance on at least one TV show
    Hint #6- If the above player participated in a Newbies round, his wants list would include nothing but Miller Lite
    Hint #7- The above player did not live in your state long, as he was part of a military family who moved a lot.
    Hint #8- The Gang knows who this player is
    Hint #9- I think my target has wrongfully crossed me off his list of potential senders.

    *insert marginally funny gif but beeradvocate is the oldest dumbest site I use so I couldn’t figure it out on my phone*

    ...like I said, work cut out - I think the box I sent landed right before we got targets. Should be alright though!

    Had @HeartofMiami crossed off my list due to the less populous clue.

    Didn't realize there were so many elderly in Florida currently!

    Is this finally a box from you that is not an unnecessary return fire box?

    Hint 1 - :grin:
    Hint 2 - Shipping West
    Hint 3 - Beyond excited about this box, it should be really good as it’s looking right now. Just hope the wife doesn’t think 2-3x the amount it evil.
    Hint 4 - #Handshake Tick
    Hint 5 - You're not really a Peach, but neither is one of your wants...
    Hint 6 - We shared a beer(s) this year, either in person or virtually...
    Hint 7 - In the fine words of @Scottsbeer I have posted more hints than you so far.
    Hint 8 - I reckon it would be a keene idea to ship your box monday or tuesday next week.
    Hint 9 - You mule more than @Joenap419 but less than @azuelke
    Hint 10 - I think well have back and forth boxes this month by the way things are shaping up.

    It sure is. But the gang is trying to beat a very specific record in this episode. And if my target could figure out who’s record it is, he’ll be one step closer to figuring out that I am his sender.
