    But if I get enough guys with two boxes fell the same as you I'll do it. Majority rules.

    I like the thought of 2 targets in different parts of the country getting a box from me.

    I'll do it either way. Its your pool. I can see the advantages for both ways

    I tally a vote and see what wins by Friday and will go with that. Right now 2-2.

    I'm in.

    If you increase the possibility of reward with two squares you should also increase your risk and each square should be treated individually.

    4-3 so far in favor of splitting the 88oz as two entries.

    Please all read!!!!!!!!!!
    I want this to be fair and fun. Please if you have a say, tell your vote here on the thread for all to see. No beer mails. I'll stop this vote Friday at noon. In case the vote goes one way you don't like and you can get out and give me time to fill your spot. Trying to establish this rule by majority. Should've thought of this sooner, my bad.

    Cheers

    I'm only in for 1 square, but would think even a winning recipient would prefer separate packages. It brings more variety to the mix. Let's just hope that recipient is me!

    I give my proxy to @Damian74Shensky (if he wants everyone to vote) b/c I don't have a dog in the fight. However, I can understand the issue with having to ship two boxes, but I would say that's "assumption of the risk" for having two chances to win each quarter. If I were to win, half the fun of the boxes would be in the variety.

    That's what I'm thinking exactly, I know two shipping cost suck but you take the risk. But I want fairness so hence the vote. Which is 5-4 as I type. In favor of splitting the 88oz.

    I agree. If I were to win, I'd rather have more variety in the boxes.

    I'm considering picking up a 2nd square and I wouldn't have a problem shipping to 2 different people if I lost.

    I say if you have 2 squares it should be like to 2 separate entries and
    ship 2 boxes

    I am in favor of treating each square as a separate entry.

    funny enough...you still have a one in four chance of shipping two boxes to same person.

    here's another wrinkle...what if you have two squares, but you are drawn to send yourself a box???? it's like being at the corner of first and first...the nexus of the universe!!!

    Lol true. I was thinking just making it one box per BA but thought the odds be a little better not much but a little better with two plus I was afraid if not getting 100 BA's.
