Make your list, check it twice. Tomorrow we find out who's offers were naughty or nice. Actually they are all nice.

Ohhh man this is tuff. So many choices........

I just noticed the offers from the first round of the Fellowship and this round are both presented on page twelve. I don't know the significance but I am sure we can invent something.

I'm pretty sure the illuminati had something to do with it.

Got my pick list and spreadsheet photos ready. Let's start this thing

jimyson · Dec 11, 2016

Wakey, wakey. What time does this start anyway? Assuming sometime between 1-5 eastern?

badgerfan79 · Dec 11, 2016

I have the kiddos by myself all day. Not sure if I will be on or not but I have my pick list into Thorrak.

JDXX1971 · Dec 11, 2016

Almost 7 a.m. here, I am ready whenever. :mug:

Thorrak · Dec 11, 2016

T minus about 3 hours and counting

...and I'm still making changes to my list.

jimyson · Dec 11, 2016

So about 2:30 eastern?

Originally I was shooting for 2, but I'm a bit worried about traffic. Still shooting for 2 though!

Thank you, Sir. The suspense is killing me.

Christmas tree is up, Christmas lights are up. Now it's all about the Fellowship. :mug:

Got my gromitdj cheat sheet ready to go,

jerbrew · Dec 11, 2016

Really interested to see my position. I thought carefully on picks 1-8 and kind of through the last 12 on there by what looked cool. You know, judging the beer by its artwork and the offer by its glassware type of thing. May have to reconsider my list if I'm towards the end.

Love it. I Imagine you're a man who might really enjoy fantasy football drafts.

Yeah I did kinda the same thing, I hope to be able to pick live when it is my turn though.

I am mostly interested to see how fast my offer goes. I tried to put up stuff people would want. All of the offers look like they have great beer.... I suppose a few of them are in my distro so I would like to avoid those, but hell.... Even if it is beer I can get myself.... It's still beer mail.... And I would smile if a couple cans of Busch light showed up on my porch.

Even when you get socks for Christmas... You got to open a present.

Agreed. Beer is always good even if I can easily get it or have had it. But know, if I end up shipping to you you're getting some Busch light. Just a little insensitive to pick mine.

cegan09 · Dec 11, 2016

Is it going to be set 30 minute blocks, or does it move to the next person as soon as a pick is made.

Yeah me and SWMBO are not fans of IPA so I am just hoping to get something we will enjoy. Besides that I too want to see how well my offer is received.

Just don't want to get some damn frilly socks or something ya know?

I use to join a FF league my bro ran. Was hella fun. Then kids happened, so I haven't played lately.

Ive never had a chance to try Gumballhead, so you offer is definitely on my radar. :mug:

I've ran a few of these raffles and I'm always surprised at the differences in people's tastes. That's why the first few picks generally get their top choice. One year the top #1 vote getter, was picked 9th. So you never know.

Last time it moved to the next person as soon as the pick was made

cegan09 · Dec 11, 2016

Cool thanks. Was just curious if I could figure out my time slot and come back then. I'll make sure I watch though.

It will work like this again. If you need to leave during the drawing, feel free to PM a pick list over. While I prefer to receive them in advance, I'll take them right up to when you turn comes up.

MarkO22 · Dec 11, 2016

Only a little while to go...

cheers all

PatrickGoss · Dec 11, 2016

Time to figure out how big a beer to open for the big event.

Scturo · Dec 11, 2016

Here we go, good luck to everyone in the Raffle! :rockin:
