    @IPAFan521 - timmy came in and manned up, and i am not surprised in the least he did that. i have nothing but respect for him, an upfront and honest guy and one i consider a friend. life happens, it gets in the way, we all get it.

    that said, you said you were done with this thread recently. you were tagged, so you read it again, and now youre in here provoking shit again by being passive aggressive towards @LehighAce06, who i know feels a little bad about coming down so hard when there was a lack of information about who the box was given to.

    i know youre an extremely generous ba and have sent out great boxes. youve done a ton of great things to many people. youve been awesome, but lets keep it positive in here. sure, this bif has had some challenges from the jump, yet it does have a ton of great potential and i love the idea nate came up with.

    lets move forward.

    This whole BIF concept is surprise....It is obvious IPAFan was communicating with with his sender but we weren't receiving this communication because he was trying to keep the surprise for the rest of us. The larger % of this BIF was waiting patiently then stolen beer was thrown around amongst other things. TastyDeliciousness did apologize for being the hold up however haven't seen any apologies for people who "feel bad" about things they have said.

    PS I like jokes

    FWIW being handled offline would have been great from the start. I do find it confusing to launch an attack inside the thread but dig yourself out behind the scenes...(I did tell Kevin this too and this is not a joke but my opinion sometimes my opinion is considered a joke by many individuals however).

    I like surprises

    i think the issue with this is that the recipient was never given, so its kinda hard to address when you dont know who you are addressing it with. justin was communicating with timmy. questions were asked of justin, but justin, understandably, didnt want to throw tastyd under the bus. all in all a tough spot.

    It originally was my intention to remove myself from all this and let it just move on, but it was pointed out to me that I can't have it both ways; to both criticize behind-the-scenes communication when it comes to handling the box, but then communicate exclusively behind-the-scenes afterward. With that said, I am not interested in this being dragged out or in going back and forth with anybody.

    @TastyDelicousness and I are already on the same page as each other, and have a lot of respect for one another. I understand and respect the reason he hadn't posted in here from when he received the box until now, and while it can be a bummer, real life always comes first.

    I admit it was a bit heavy-handed of me to invoke the "s" word when wondering what was going on with the box, and in light of what's been said since, it's clear that was never what was going on. For the record, I never did take out a pitchfork, nor make any derogatory comments toward the box's recipient (beside use of the "s" word itself), or make any call for action, I only ever asked for some transparency and some communication.

    It has been said, and I don't disagree, that not everything being discussed on a topic was done publicly, nor did it need to be. I'll have to agree to disagree when it comes to whether or not ANY information being made public is the right tact, but I think I'm entitled to my opinion on that as much as anyone is entitled to their opposing opinion.

    I think you should still get the pitchforks out I'm just sayin. I think the their should be held out and stoned to death. It's beer damnit! Hahahaha. Glad we can all laugh and be friends about this.

    Again, sorry for any trouble I caused or any ill feelings that become of it. Sometimes ones actions aren't realized the domino effect they may cause. I should have done my part.

    Now about those pitchforks....
