    We have a winner of Round two! You are now The Target!

    If you would like to send out a box to this first time LIF winner....please send me a message for further instructions.

    The merits of sending a box to The Target:
    *I will award bonus points to everyone who does so.
    *I will award other bonuses for criteria such as being quick to deliver/respond, generosity, etc...
    *You will earn a shot at future rounds even if you weren't eligible or got eliminated from competition.
    *Maybe a lucky sender or two will get an entry to the final round
    *Other awesome bonuses!
    *Boost you beer karma. Seriously...you want to.

    Thanks gpawned! I appreciate you taking the time to put this all together.

    I've lurked on BA for a while now, but just started getting more active this summer (giving people tips for visiting my area.)

    I've never sent a bottle (or received one) before - so I'm really interested to see how packaging should look.

    Like I said, I'm new to this... I'll shoot you a message about what I should do. Thanks!

    I will try to post the question and rules for Round 3 later tonight. I will dole out a few more points as well and give an update on the scores. Don't worry if you are behind. There are at least a dozen rounds to go assuming participation is good.

    The next round will be OPEN TO ANYONE! Stay tuned.

    Points!
    *TheGr8BeerState gets 1 "Everyone is High" Bonus Point for being the only person to not overbid on my car's mileage. I will not reveal the exact number because I will continue to use it for tie breakers. Consider this a HINT.
    *Mathematizer gets 4 Points for getting the correct answer to question 2
    *Sidebordz gets 1 "Down but not Out" Bonus Point for being the first person eliminated from the game. Your guesses were good until that one mistake. Your points will remain but you have restrictions on when you can participate until further notice. You are currently ineligible to guess in future rounds unless you earn your way back in (such as by sending a box to The Target!) Exception...you are allowed to guess in Round 3 because it is open to EVERYONE.
    *Yamar68 gets 1 "Funny like a Clown" Bonus Point for keeping me entertained.

    The current Scoreboard:
    6 Points - Mathematizer (Leader and The Target)
    3 Points - Fluke 828
    2 Points - Jaminjohnson, TheGr8BeerState, Sidebordz
    1 Point - Ant880, Sesmu, Shoo65, Yamar68

    Don't give up...this is still ANYBODY'S Game. Message me if you think I made a mistake on the scores.

    ROUND 3 - Wheel of Destiny

    Anybody can play this round, even if you've won a LIF!

    The person who gets the correct answer will get either 15 points or a chance to "spin" the "Wheel of Destiny" (your choice). If the winner decides to forgo the points, I will post a picture of the wheel and the winner will pick a number which will secretly correspond to an item on the wheel (some good, some bad).

    I'm hoping this round will last a few days so that I can give people a chance to send out boxes to The Target. Please message me if you want the mailing info. I hope The Target gets to truly understand BA generosity!

    Question 3
    My fiancee and I were invited to 4 weddings between August and November all in different US cities. Name those cities. In addition, my cousin is getting married in a few weeks and I will not be able to attend...name the state where she will be getting married. Get all 5 correct answers and you may get to spin the wheel!

    1 guess per hint.

    Format guesses as such:
    City, ST
    City, ST
    City, ST
    City, ST
    State

    You both guessed too many cities...it is 4 City/St and 1 state. I'll ignore the 5th City/St this time but another mistake will mean elimination.

    HINT: 1 of the Cities has been guessed.

    Guess again.
