What if someone who's not on the list gets 20k?

I struggle with this... we are friendly friends after all, so 20k should almost just get it. But if they aren't playing and don't have any skin in the game, it feels a little unfair.

Thoughts? First person on the list at or over 20k or... just 20k post gets it?
 
Next poster who is on the list that posts wins as a default

Yeah, I like that better. Gotta play to win.

Every entrant offers up one beer (bottle or can), to be shipped to the person who happens to post to this thread for the 20,000th time. You do not need to disclose what you are sending ahead of time.

Feel free to send more if you so desire.

If you would like to participate, quote this post and I'll add your name to the list.

For the sake of fairness, try not to spam to 20,000 once we get close. That ain't right. Any poster that posts more than 3 times in a row in the hunt for 20,000 will be DQ'd (this will be discussed amongst the friendly friends to determine if an infraction has occurred).

I'll keep track of the list.

Very cloudy here yesterday. Looked normal earlier in the week but we have no snow. Never heard of a snow moon.

It was a brilliant dark yellow last night and very bright. I love our backyard, modest as it is, but in the middle of the city.. having even the slightest raised deck means a nice wide open view of the sky. It almost reminds me of home. The moon rises directly over the most open line of sight we have. Really looking forward to my first spring/summer at this home for evening drinking and sky-watching.

I like losing contests and mailing beer.

WTF, in. Hope I comes in the evening as I can't play all day long like you slackers.

I've been a bunch of places, but honestly the best sky watching I ever had the chance to do was when we were married in Maui. We did a sunrise tour to the top of Mount Haleakala, a dormant volcano. The sky was so clear with the cloud cover actually below the summit where we were. It was an awe inspiring event man. Check out some pictures of it sometime, it might give you incentive to go one day.

Has anyone been to Rio? Any tips other than don't get pregnant?

Don't get dead. Seriously. Murder capital of the world. And this is coming from the guy in Philly. Its so much more common in Rio to get abducted then most other places in the world...almost a common practice.

Other then that, beautiful

This is seriously my biggest concern, but I wasn't sure if I am just turning into my parents who think everything is unsafe.

That sounds pretty cool. Growing up, we had a pond in the middle of a 20 acre corn/alfalfa field. On the West hill of our town in the middle of nowhere, no neighbors within a mile... I'd just take the canoe into the middle of the pond at night and stare straight up for an hour. Always hoped to see something crazy, never did. Sure makes you feel small though. I definitely miss it out there.
 
Yes it does, but I'll forgive you for one of those bottles of your choosing. :D

Anyone seen this thing before:

I'm calling BS.

That's pretty hip! So maybe the challenge for hb'ers is don't make beers that create large co2 bubbles. My impression, or opinion, is those would be lighter beers with bit to high co2 pressure carbonated them.

You would be surprised on the amount of criminals who aren't used to self defense. When in rome, throat punch and eye gouge. Stick to well lit areas with crowds.
Going during the Olympics?

Sure, sign me up. Undoubtedly this will happen at midnight on the day before I head to CT so I have no chance, but at least I'll get some beer out of the cellar.

If you have already got the accessory kit this may be a bit late but here is a great thread on a seemingly better way to hook up your beergun. I don't have one (yet). If I do I'll go this route.

Thanks - I'll keep that thread subscribed for the future, but at the moment I just have one keg that I plan to use to force carb for bottle filling. Kegerator may come later in the year.

Drinking water and trying to think of a good, fattening lunch option (I don't want soup today!)

It certainly does. I grew up inner city, so a view like that was otherworldly for me. Seriously like a screen saver lol

Good grief. I was gone for about an hour or two and you buttholes churned through like 10 pages of posts.

By the way, the "who shot first" question is a trick question. Nobody shot first. To say that someone shot first insinuates that someone shot second. The correct answer is that Han shot...not first, not second...Han shot.
 
I struggle with this... we are friendly friends after all, so 20k should almost just get it. But if they aren't playing and don't have any skin in the game, it feels a little unfair.

Thoughts? First person on the list at or over 20k or... just 20k post gets it?

Rules amended... this should be fun.

What about blow-ins from elsewhere. Say someone joins up and finds the Friendly place and posts or someone who is not friendly as evident by their posts elsewhere (I can think of 2 only 1 of whom has posted in the thread before but has been a dick to another friendly friend).

I know the odds are low but perhaps there should be a group empannelled to discuss late entrants responding to Psylo's comp (in proud association with @beermeduffman ).

1 suggestion. Put a time limit on entrance (Thursday 11.59pm) otherwise as 20k approaches one could enter the thread/the comp and take the winnings by quoting Pslyo.

Also a douchenozzle threshold (Ω). If you fall below this bar, determined by the empanneled subgroup of Friendly friends, OUT. Can there be an exception to the douchenozzle aceptance criteria for me. I'd like to enter.

The winner (w) is is to be selected from subgroup F' of Friendly friends F
F' ∈ F

The winner is an element of F' with a post P to this thread T such that P ≥ 20,000

Winner's Douchyness D ≤ Ω

TL,DR

w ∈ F' ∈ F
P ≥ 20,000
D ≤ Ω

I'm in if you'll have me
