    This is why I'm glad I haven't ruled you out yet.

    Now wait just a minute... First @I_BYE_MI_BEER was the 24th member, then @Poorpatz was the "24th member" and we assumed that I_BYE... wasn't actually in it. At that point, we had 24 people all having posted. Now we've got @rspauldi in here too??? I don't care if it's 24, 26, or 40 people in this, but for the sake of my sanity, can we get a definitive count/list???

    Yeah what @Lehighace06 just said... Is there anybody in here with a target who hasn't posted yet? Because that might mean you are in the wrong BIF thread!

    Doesn't look like you got an answer, as far as I know BA does not have anything, and personally I just use seekabrew. If anyone else has other resources, please share them!

    So far today not a single local, I had a Serenity by accident (literally an accident, my brother in law was in the fridge, dropped it and while thank god it didn't break, the cap came half off); a Deschutes Inversion IPA; and a Jackie O's Hop Ryot. The Serendipity and Hop Ryot are from trades, and the Inversion was the last of a 6pack bought for the NFL Draft BIF/mini-BIF. I think next up are some FFF from the Barleywine BIF, Zombie Dust and Alpha King (@Immutable_Dusk is a ninja, he got it into my hands 7 days post bottling!)

    I guess as long as everyone that sends a box gets a box, the only thing really lost is the ability to accurately guess your sender... ya know, and my sanity as I try to do so and end up in circles.

    Agreed, but I still feel like somebody is in the wrong thread and if so might be missing out on their own hints and hauls. And sanity is overrated anyway...

    Hint #1 -- shipping west
    Hint #2 -- my target is NOT the only one from his state participating in this BIF
    Hint #3 -- my target's state school is a member of the Big 10 Football Conference
    Hint #4 -- my target's state includes three consecutive letters of the alphabet
    Hint #5 -- my target has fewer than 100 wants
    Hint #6 -- based on the hints he's given so far, my target and my sender COULD be the same person!

    Thought I'd share another somewhat local treat, talk about super vanilla!
    Hope everyone is having a great weekend thus far, and we need more hints from some of the silent participants!

    Another deceptive hint, I was sure PA was bigger than FL! I guess being stretched out, FL is bigger than it looks (to me).

    Not local but I wish it was. It's a perfect day here. Ribs are smoking and beer is flowing.

    Made a beer run over to Wisconsin yesterday to pick up some Pseudo Sue. One of these bottles will be in my target's box.

    I have you narrowed down to one of my senders. If you are then I am very happy.
