So we start with 6 teams. Week 1 the losers are eliminated, then week two the top two scores of the three remaining teams go to the final?

I think that's essentially what ended up happening last year, although I did it retroactively because I'm an idiot and didn't realize there was an issue there until after the fact.

That neatly solves the issue of an odd number of winners coming out of week 1, as the "loser" in week 2 would have lost to either of the advancing teams head-to-head.

Alright, so Naturdays vs. Beer Hat for the consolation box it is.

Natty Guice vs. Freeman for the championship.

And unless I'm missing something, Dallas Sucks vs. Breesus for 3rd place.

Veritek and Zam, you guys should probably let everyone know your region and what kind of beer you're into since you're only fighting over 1st and 2nd place next week. Deedee Megadoodoo is like 99.99% a lock for the highest score on the year and barring some batshit crazy stuff it'd be a good idea for you to provide that info too. Everyone else I'd appreciate an idea of where you're shipping from so I can assign boxes.

I'm from Mass and I'm not guaranteeing there's gonna be any Treehouse in the box I send out because I've never been there myself, but there's a decent chance I can pass by once or twice en route to visit relatives. I've never been there and hope it is cool. In the extremely unlikely event that I defeat Breesus, I typically like my beer dark and malty, and German or Belgian styles are very much my thing. But I'm going to lose and be sad so no worries.

Keep in mind that boxes are due out shortly after the league ends, with the target date being before January 31, 2020 (Weather permitting, of course) since it would be nice to share the cool beer from your area with people in time for the Super Bowl. :cheers:

If you're one of the few that haven't sent or received beer from me at some point I'm in LA and enjoy pretty much everything. Rauchbiers aren't my favorite, but if you really felt the need to include one I'd still drink it and probably hate it.

Also don't gently caress up and not send beer because I dealt with that last year and it's really lovely. Last year was the worst for flakes, so I have hope this will be another smooth year.

Also for guys who have their best interests at heart, but get too busy or lazy to get a box out together and sent out.

Don’t just dip. Either buy someone a Tavour GC, or Venmo the commish $$ and we can get a box sent out for you.

Sometimes crap happens and you get busy, but that takes 30 seconds.

My nerd beer bar has 40 taps that cycle on the reg and a crowler machine, so whoever gets me is getting like 6 32 oz cans of pure joy.

I would like someone who isn't totally averse to IPA. While every beer is good, I'm like 2 hours away from Yakima Valley so I love blowing people's mind with how powerful a recently hopped beer can be

The Irish can't drink. What you always have to remember with the Irish is they get mean. Virtually every Irish I've known gets mean when he drinks.
I'm in Richmond VA and can get pretty much anything in central/eastern/northern Virginia.

I like beer. Honestly I'll drink and enjoy most anything. Variety is king.

I was planning on sending Zam some make-up beer from last season in exchange for the people who flaked under my watch, is there anyone who would be down to just adding some extra stuff to their shipping arrangement if I sent them cash for some extra beers+shipping? I've scaled down my beer acquisition/consumption down to very little recently and I'm not sure I could source a great box at this point.

3 - The Buffalo Bills "Just Happy to be Here" award: Quiet Feet

Special thanks to Christian McCaffrey for continually dragging me out of all the stupid messes and dumb decisions I made. Dear god.

It's just about Christmas and I'm away from home and likely to be busy the next couple of days but I'll try to have shipping assignments out by Thursday. Special round of applause to Funkybottoms for sticking with it the last few weeks and snatching that last box. Great season y'all! Looking forward to doing it all again next year!
