    So I think I’ve narrowed it down to five of you as possible senders. So ravagecat, beertunes, saudade, mikexw, and maybe goatman. Looks like 2 of you are dropping boxes this week so I may get some good news soon!

    So after a lunchtime review of hints, I think I've got seven sender-target pairs figured out -- including (I'm cautiously optimistic) -- my own.

    And if I’m correct, I’m very excited.

    Update: my target was hit at 11:28am. If you live in a town with two words in the name and have a zip code with five different numbers in it, run home now!

    being the first time doing this may be a dumb question but if you guess your sender do you call it out and make it known or does it stay a mystery to the group?

    Final hint: I’ve ticked off 208 beers since you joined the site, which has me contemplating my decisions in life.

    With the first box dropping, I believe I have my sender narrowed down to 4 individuals....

    Call them out for sure, even if you are wrong it eliminates someone!!!

    It's me!!!!

    You were on my short list of 6 but while looking at my informed delivery this morning I saw a very strange tracking number so I got suspicious. He never came so I figured it was someone else, but then I saw your post and checked the mailbox and he had absolutely crammed it in there ha!

    I'm sorry I can't do a full write up now because I'm already running late so only a teaser shot below but let me tell you this thing is killer!!!!!

    More soon.

    You can call them out, but if you are wrong they are under no obligation to tell you that :-)

    That being said, I would also double check my hints in that case and make sure the error wasn't at my end.

    And I typically don't say anything until I have my box in hand and/or am 100% sure.
