    We need 5 more players for weekly boxes to be active.

    If we do not get there we can go a few ways;

    1) We can randomly pick a few random weeks that weekly boxes will not be active and everyone will ship a weekly box.
    2) I am willing to ship 2 weekly boxes if that would get us a weekly box every week. Would probably need another couple volunteers.
    3) We can forgo the weekly boxes and just do season ending prizes, which is not as fun if you are out of the top you have nothing to really play for.

    I am vote 1 or 2.

    Please let me know in the thread as the season starts tomorrow.

    The best would be to have a few more people sign up so c'mon where are the players from years past.

    If we do Option #2 (which I am fine with), I'd request the weeks not be random, but known in advance, preferably toward the end of the season (in case the season gets derailed, let's prioritize everyone sending at least one box).

    Another idea we could do if we don't hit 17 is for everyone to ante up two weekly boxes. It's a little more expensive, but that way every week would have at least one box with some two boxes. I agree with @wilymobastardo as well, we could front load the start of the season.

    By way of random would mean I would pick a few weeks but we are up to 13 players. I would also post everything before the Sunday games as far as payout. But yes they would be boxes in the last half as those are what makes worth playing if you not in the top few.

    I will ship 2 weekly boxes if we can get 3 more volunteers we would be there without any further players.

    We are 4 boxes short of weekly box.

    I will ship 2 and if we do not get anymore players can we get 3 volunteers to ship two boxes.

    It will give you great beer karma and league is more fun with weekly boxes.

    New players still can sign up today !!

    If we get one more person to ship 2 small boxes we will be at a weekly box for every week.
    Mhksuccess (2 small boxes)
    Wilymobastardo (2 small boxes)
    DblDiamond (2 small boxes)

    If we do not get another volunteer we will have weekly winner for 16 of 17 weeks so I have randomly picked week 8 winner will not a get a weekly box. I am hoping one more person will ship 2 small boxes.

    Anyway we have total of 13 players.

    Final season big box payouts as follows:

    There will be 3 final winners if you are not in the top 3 you will ship small weekly box and big season ending box. If you are in the top 3 you are just required to ship weekly box or boxes if you volunteer for 2.

    First place - 5 boxes
    Second place - 3 boxes
    Third place - 2 boxes

    Good luck everyone and have fun.

    Cheers M

    I’ll send a second box unless @cosmo4u wins on that week. If he wins I’ll send him my dirty laundry :sunglasses:

    (extra starch in my shorts please Chad)
