    Housekeeping: If you did not receive your target via BM, or anything is unclear, please let me know ASAP!!!

    I think I've got everything sent out and correct, but ... you know. Beer. And a headache. So you never know (@FBarber "Ya nevah knoooooow!").

    Thanks! I was just filling out locations for people, and was surprised how many I remembered just by name. There were a few newcomers I was having trouble tracking down though.

    Hint #1: We sometimes raise the Jolly Roger around these parts when our stickball team wins a game, but I will not be shipping to one(but he already knew that).

    A quick correction, it's @kemoarps , not KeNmoarps. None of the WA participants live in Kenmore WA.

    Wow, this got named and started and is on page 3 already! I've been around, how am I late to the party? Crazy.
    Okay, Hint # 1 - I will not be shipping North.

    Well now that I have my pairing, I must revoke Hint #1 and admit that I am indeed shipping to @nc41.

    Unofficial Hint #2: one of my first two hints is a lie, and the other is the truth.

    OK troops - since I won Dale's LIF in the sign-up thread, here's a back atcha LIF:

    In my turtle room/home office is a barrister's bookcase that was my grandfather's. There are four shelves with glass doors and a top on which "stuff" is stored. We will call the top "TOP" and the glass-enclosed shelves "1," "2" ,"3", and "4", with "1" being the top shelf and descending through "2", "3", and bottoming out at "4". There's "stuff" in and on the bookcase, which, for your convenience, I've summarized as A) Beer books, B) Beer glasses, C) Bender Budha, D) Coins, E) Dried toad, F) Field Guides, G) Packing/scotch tape, H) Reptile fetishes, and I) Travel guides and maps. All you have to do is correctly assign each item to its proper shelf/shelves - i.e.
    TOP - E, F, G, 1 - A, B, C, etc. There's at least one item on each shelf and some items may be on more than one shelf - beer glasses, for example, may appear on 1,2,3, and 4. Score one point for each correct item placement - highest score wins. Let's close this down at the end of this week's NBW.

    Oh, and by the way, a couple of those beer glasses will be heading west (Hint 1).

    I sort of use untappd, but my usage of BA is much closer to reality.

    So the game of Poker begins, who’s bluffing? Liars and cheats, the truth mixed with fiction. I’m not shipping to Kiribati, I can’t afford the shipping that’s more than the beers I’m sending.

    It’s confusing and moves faster than I can keep up. It’s always a bit taxing.

    Very fair points. Still, looks like a fun time. How does this all work? Do we like, give each other beer or something?

    I don’t utilize Untappd at all. Everything you need to know about my beer nerdery is captured here.

    So I’ve got THAT going for me.
