    It will all make perfect sense if you just throw your hat in the ring and get down on the fun. Someone needs another one of those devastating boxes that you sent last BIF.

    Hint #1 - shipping west
    New Hint #2 - My target has logged more beers on BA than me
    New Hint #3 - I have been to my targets state only twice that I can remember (once in high school, and once a couple of years ago)

    Spoiler alert - I may or may not have picked up something for my target's box in Atlanta yesterday.

    Still hope for me here, until I got to the state bird thing...

    Well I have 16 for sure eliminated and another four that probably aren't me.

    I drew the short straw didn't I.

    I'm pretty sure I know which bird, and it is not to be found in my state.

    Hint # 5.

    There is no active vessel in the USN named for my target's state, per wikipedia.

    Thankfully, I had anticipated this eventuality, and as such have saved the slot directly before me for when you came to your senses. Thanks for waking up and smelling the wort. :sunglasses:

    Nice. I still have a stab at some southeast beers. Giggity.

    That's the glass half-empty look. You're also halfway to knowing who your target is (as am I).

    There is one named after New Mexico, strangely, but I'd already ruled you out.

    Hint recap:


    And today's hint: My target's state legislature is currently in session.

    #4 - Target works in an industry that interests me (referencing past avatars)
    #5 - Target could, theoretically, obtain beers from one of my favorite breweries, that doesn't distribute out here.

    That recipient of my porch bomb from the last round recently asked me to send him a bottle of beer that was just released here and I assured him I would do so. He wants to include it for his target in an April Fools BIF were doing. I don't think he realizes that I can't send just one bottle of beer. All the boxes I have a 12 shippers. He's in trouble again!

    I received a sizable number of requests with that very question.
