    I'll leave this active until Saturday 4/11. Here's the procedure:
    *I'm using a modified version of the Formula 1 point system: 1st = 10pts, 2nd=6pts, 3rd=4pts, 4th=2pts, 5th=1point.

    *Again you can only vote for 5 of the 12 finalists. List them in your order 1st-5th.

    *I'm only going to accept your first post as counting. If you change your mind, do it within the edit window.

    *Everyone is eligible to vote, even if they didn't vote in the nomination thread.

    *Use your own parameters for choosing. If you want to vote best, fine. If you want to vote favorite, fine. By style, fine. Wutever.

    Here's the nominees, in alphabetical order (with # of noms in Parentheses):

    Bale Breaker (8)
    Cloudburst (3)
    Chuckanut (14)
    Floodland (4)
    Fremont (29)
    Georgetown (17)
    Holy Mountain (13)
    Reubens (20)
    Silver City (3)
    Skookum (12)
    Stoup (3)
    Wander (5)

    Have fun, argue politely, and most certainly, drink while voting!

    Not going to even vote at this stage, at this point it's all fanbois cheering on their favorite team. ALL are in driving distance at a bottleshop or on grocery store shelves, we're all winners in this game.

    I thought that was the whole point of this, from the get go. Am I mistaken?

    I'd like to think that it's a blend of Fanboi-ism and actual, unbiased appreciation of our various breweries.

    Yes, I know, I'm still naive.

    We're at stage two. You know passive/aggressive leftist PacNW folks like you are why I really pass up this section most of the time. Thanks for reaffirming my opinion.

    I haven't blocked you.

    If I'd blocked you I wouldn't have seen your post in the first place.

    Matter of fact, I've only blocked one person here, and that's because they went way out of their way to be obnoxious.

    I like your posts, man. And I have no idea why you have such a goddamn chip on your shoulder against me.

    Also: My question still stands, and it's open to anyone who wants to answer: Isn't the whole point of this thread and the other one to vote for our favorite breweries? The ones we actually do want to fanboy for?

    To

    To be honest, I have absolutely no problem with you. It just seems most folks in this area are arrogant pricks and I guess I throw it back in kind. You and I rarely interact here and you've never once done something to offend me. Throw a little cabin fever in the mix... a guy gets shitty.
    Sorry if I came across wrong.

    As I said in the OP of this thread: Vote how you want: "favorite", "best", "by volume", "hype-worthy", wutevz. This is just fun, time-killing chatter whilst we all have time, have to be relatively alone, but still want to communicate.

    Plus, somebody needs to steal this and start the Orygun version.

    @Mister_Faucher No harm no foul, man. These are stressful days. I'm happy to keep you on the long list of BA's I need to buy a pint for. (Seriously, I do keep a list.)

    I best NOT be on that list. You've been too generous as it is.

    How about @vurt and @Mister_Faucher agree to meet in Bellingham when this shit is finally done (prolly 11 years from now [wut, it's been less than 2 weeks? Damn!], but whenever) and I'll be some combo of Dr. Phil/Judge Judy/Oprah, and The Rock? We can either hug it out, sue it out, or fight it out!

    I'd love to hit a Bham pub crawl. My main tattoo guy is working out of there now, I can check in on the in-laws at the same time.

    Best prepare thy liver. I know folks at all but 1 brewery in town. Plus, The Hobos do love us a bottleshare.

    That's a little too close to the the overall mode list. I'm somewhat disappointed in myself.
