    Ehhh... I wouldn't go that far... :stuck_out_tongue:

    But I figure it was time I stopped leading you on. But after you pinned me as one of your final potentials I had to tailor my clues to fit both yourself and my actual target which was actually more fun and challenging.

    Awfully quiet in here. The hints have grinded to a halt.

    It's a combination of St Patrick's day hangover and March Madness. A deadly combo

    I also figured most people like me are exhausted from all the detective work, reluctant to share that extra hint that will finally reveal him/herself, and content to have an unexpected box destroy their porch.

    I have one last hint.
    My target has been fooled into thinking someone else is their shipper.

    Why must we resort to these mind games? All I want to do is sit here at home and imagine the beautiful box that will hit my porch and right now you're inserting conflicting beers into my fantasy. You have to understand how hard on me and other BIFers this is.

    I had nothing to do with the ruse. I am simply pointing it out.

    Yet you just admitted it was a ruse. :wink: I'm on to you sir. The numerous beers I've had tonight have heightened by detective skills.

    Yes I discovered the ruse because I alone knew the truth

    Hey and I've already come clean. I'm no longer in the ruse-ing business

    Figured I'd roll all the clues together into a recap that may or may not be enough to reveal me to my target. The beer should be in the mail early this week, just got some final decisions to make:
    1. You live in a state I have been to 1 to 3 times
    2. You live in a state that I have had at least on 1 beer from (in case you forgot from like 5 posts ago)
    3. You have participated in this thread
    4. If no one else in this BIF lives in your state (according to their profile), you can remain lonely without any of my beer to help you.
    5. If you live in a state whose abbreviation shares a letter with my first initial, that's just too weird, I am not sending you beer. -- signed, CJ
    6. Pseudo-hint #1: If you've had more than 2 of the beers in my photo in a previous post, you likely aren't my target.
    7. If you have more than twice the official trades as I do, you obviously have ways of getting beers from other places, you don't need my help.
    8. If you live in a state where I have traded in the past, this is a New-themed beer trading-like event, no repeats!!
    9. If I have insinuated in this thread that I thought you might be my sender, you have tricked me, I don't like that! No beer for you!!
    10. Pseudo-hint #2: I am beginning to feel for those, like me, who can't figure anything out. So I promise I have not lied in any of the actual hints above (and I believe not with the pseudo-hint).
    11. If you joined BA after me, you already have enough "new" (the theme of this BIF) as far as I'm concerned, I'm not sending you any more.
    12. Following on my previous hint, you must not live in a state that exhibits the quality I mentioned you can't have too much of to get beers from me. In fact, you as a beer advocate, must be the exact opposite in at least one way.

    Fine looking group of brews, and fine looking glassware!

    I'm just sitting here waiting for some La Cumbre and other goodness to arrive. For those who haven't eliminated me yet though, at least three European countries have claimed at least part of my target's state. :grinning:

    You're pretty confident there. How did you arrive at this conclusion?

    Honestly, I've got no idea if you're really sending La Cumbre. I'm confident whatever's in the box will be amazing though.
