Bill, when you're confirming accounts do you just validate the account exists on HBT or just click a button?

Seems like validating the HBT username could be as simple as the system making a request to HBT.com for a username and it returns status 200 for a valid user, and 302 for an invalid user (technically 404 if you tell your request to follow redirects). Might be another pain point that's liftable via code, along with converting all the order requests into an order spreadsheet.

I only understood your first sentence. :D

I have an admin window that displays people who have signed up and need confirmation. I check the box next to their name and click "confirm". Then they are confirmed.
 
Alright, RC doesn't seem to be responding and I don't want to lose the order, so I'm adding the hops to my order now. If you are part of the Cascade or NB splits, please respond confirming and I will update this post. I'll hold RC's allocation in the split for now.

cadwallion - 2 (confirmed)
TheOneBuz - 3
RC - 2

Just got a text from RC0032. Something unexpected popped up and he needs to drop out this group buy. He apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause.

Alright, thanks for the heads up, bill.

That means we have 2lbs of Cascade and 1lb of Northern Brewer open in the splits. Any takers?

Just for confirmation - my sacks, I have split with Wegz Neopol and starman
1/4 each - Black Malt and Roasted Barley.

OK I'm good for up to a 1/2 on either if something changes. Do you only want 1/4 each on the roasted wheat, crystal rye, and malt rye?

Bill, it allows me to ad oak in 15 gal, no toasted chips or any chips however. I don't recall if we could order the chips or just spirals and honeycombs.

I think was just honey combs and spirals.

Confirming my split if MO. Thanks for offering in the first place!
 
Ghoti I can give up one of my nelson for you if ypaul doesn't work out.

Any other hops needing closing out?

Group hop buy sounds great, I'll commit to it. At least a portion of it anyway. How many lbs do we have in the current buy, will they let us negotiate a lower commitment with our current buy included...thinking out loud.
 
I'll take the last # of NB

Added. This closes out both splits, everyone who has not confirmed (list in post #472) please do so here or via PM. I will PM everyone involved with my paypal address and individual cost once Bill gives confirmation of the order.
 

Confirming my pound of NB

Also, hoping someone picked up the slack on the magnum. I felt like it had started to be picked up. Status update?
 
ok, i'm giving everyone until midnight to change and replace their grain items. Please do not add anymore and ideally do not drop any sacks of grain either since we are at 164 sacks which is what the ideal count is for including all of the other stuff in the delivery without incurring an extra pallet charge. non grain items can be added unless you need 200 pounds of PBW. If anyone wants to order a significant amount of grain please PM to see what we, the group, can do. Thanks.

Starman picked up the Magnum split where RC left off and it is filled (Post #443 is where Starman took it over).

good for a 1/4 on those as discussed!

Magnum is set, I'll cover the extra LB from RC unless someone is aching for it.

Yes only a 1/4 of your 3. I haven't brewed enough to justify more. Thanks.
 
Neopol said:
Bill, any reason we can add most spices except coriander, Trish talked me into an orange/coriander pale..

I'll add it later.
 
ghoti said:
Neopol - That would be great if I can get one pound of nelson

We'll call that done, but respectfully let's see how ylpauls order processes since you queried him first. We can work our deal out up to day of delivery.
 
Starman picked up the Magnum split where RC left off and it is filled (Post #443 is where Starman took it over).

ok, thanks for helping me. Things have been going fast and I'm trying to keep up! Starman, here's my confirmation if you're looking for one.
