The Locals HINTS AND HAULS THREAD

Ill do my best to fill that thing up!!

 

Just a dumb question, but what's the time span between rounds?

 

About 2-3 weeks. Better start reloading

 

Thanks for the chance!
I'll go with 191. If I win, forward it to @Dave_Treat please!

 

We've done a total of 7 "official" rounds -- based on the date I shipped (the easiest way I have to estimate dates, I'm typically somewhere in the middle of the shipping window), here are time spans:

Round 1 to summer 6er -- 46 days
summer 6er to Round 2 (which I guess we should rename Round 3) -- 92 days
Round 2/3 to winter 6er -- 97 days
winter 6er to Anti-Circle Jerk-LIF BIF -- 49 days
ACJ LIF BIF to AA (Almost Anniversary) round -- 99 days
AA round to Round se7en -- 91 days

The calculated MTBR (mean time between rounds) is 79 days, but I think the real answer to your question is that with a couple of exceptions, it seems like we tend to do one of these roughly every 3 months -- the summer 6er was put in before we started crazily sending boxes for no real reason to each other, the ACJ round was because we were sending SO MANY that we figured we might as well create a real round for it.

That would put the next round sometime in December; some people may be hesitant to participate because that coincides with the 12 days of Christmas BIF and possibly the stouts BIF (which I assume is a winter event).

 

This is @Mikexw 's short answer too....

 

You really have to appreciate the comment, lol! Thanks for the info @Mikexw, looks like a bit of work went into that post!

 

Who in here has NEVER had Pliny the Elder?

 

sorry man, not you this time. the NY one is outside the thread. Guess I'll have to fix that (either not going to you, or that he is not in the thread, or both )

 

what did I do to you? Maybe I'll forward the forward.... except I know 111 is the right answer...

 

I just felt like targeting you, is all. lol
111 is not the right answer, that's why I guessed 191.

 

Nothing to be sorry about -- I really do NOT need more beer, and didn't expect any, but your post confused me.

 

too late...

 

Stout BIF got started up about a month ago but not many people joined, last I saw in that thread it's being postponed to November. So, yes, it'll coincide with December, and 12 DoX 2 will obviously be in December as well.

With that said, some of the above listed rounds also coincided with multiple "outside" BIFs as well. The FOMO struggle is REAL folks.

 

196! I'll forward if i win....

 

Sometimes its best to be under the radar...

 

Two mango bombs headed out today to the left coast, 3 more to go. Remember folks, you asked for them!

 

Thanks for the LIF chance, my guess is 135.

 

Okay, let's try this again since my Saturday post wasn't very successful at all. It seems every Local has tried BCBS, at least once even if it was just a little.
So, like and reply to this post if you've never had BCBCS or BCBBW, I need to give something away. Sorry, this is only open to Locals who have participated in rounds before.

 

I guess 42!!!

Wait...........I don't qualify as I am a lurker.........

And I have taken a bath in BCBCS

At least in my dreams............

And yes, I have had it, and still have some......

Lurks back out............
