    We are full with 25, thanks everyone and good luck! (We might be able to squeeze more in, but only people from prior years would be eligible.)

    We are over 25 now with some past players joining in late. No worries, just more beer for the winners!

    Since we are up to a bunch more players (34 now i think?) Are there any thoughts of paying out to more than the top 3? Maybe 4th and 5th place get a box? Just wondering.

    I vote keep the Top 3 but dead last place gets 3 boxes. (With no intentionally aiming for last place allowed)

    How do we pick if someone is intentinally aiming for it though?

    I'd say pay a few more places, or have a couple places that just don't have to send.

    I like that idea. Maybe not 3 boxes, but 1 though to the person finishing dead last.

    I don't want last place to get any boxes. But since the interest has been way better than I thought, maybe we could have 4th get something?

    I would consider having last not send a box. In a bowl pool I'm in, you get your entry fee back if you finish dead last.

    The way it is right now, the winner would get 20+ boxes of beer. I was just trying to distribute it out a little. We don't have to change it at all if you decide you don't want to. Like I said, I was just throwing out ideas.

    Even better. That's what we do when I play poker, last place gets their buy-in back.

    I would say top #4. Top #3 if it was money, but this is beer, enough to go around and share more spots.

    I vote that the top 4 spots gets beer, the last spot has to send written apologies for sucking so bad (watch it be me) to all participants, or doesnt have to ship at all.

    I vote for Top 4 as well, and I like the written apology for sucking so bad (I think I have a paragraph or two from a pool last year with similar rules)
