There will be a prize. I've set a budget and am deciding how to count entries and decide the winner. I'm thinking maybe 1 entry per completed game, max entries 5 (4 + 1 bonus; sorry Gator). I would then need to find a program that would choose the random winner. Any suggestions?
Click to expand...
Open excel or any spreadsheet program. write a user name that has completed a challenge and then fill down for every additional game they completed (so if they did 4 of 4 then their name would be listed 4 times in 4 consecutive rows). Now you'll have 1 long column with many names. Scroll to the bottom of the list and get the highest row number with a name next to it.

Go to random.org and on the upper right is a random number generator. Leave min at 1 and max at the highest row number with a name, then click generate. Whatever number pops up, that row number wins. You can keep clicking it for however many prizes you have to give away.

Son of a bitch. Cats are expensive. Over $600 for a blocked bladder, and they said it could happen again. They shaved the middle parts of both his front legs to insert catheters, and he's long-haired, so now it looks like he's wearing fuzzy boots on his front paws.

BRB, going to make a thread in the OT forum begging for money.

 
Gator, you have have/hear of Dragon's Milk?  I saw it at a bar a couple weeks ago and it sounded interesting, but they were all out.

I have tried a couple New Belgium beers and Fat Tire. They are all hoppy and gross to me. So even though they call themselves Belgium they dont make it in that style it seems. Right Gator?

Actually, no. They produce a lot of real Belgian styles. They just are not as popular as Fat Tire, Ranger IPA, 1554 and other beers that are not Belgian styles so you do not see them all over.

They have a dubbel that is probably the closest thing to a made in Belgium version we have in America. Also, the do a lot of Belgian beers in the Lips of Faith series that are just large format bottles and would typically only be found in liquor stores or boutique beer stores. Many of that series tends to be sours so I would never back up the truck if you found them. One of each would be a good idea.

Gator How would I describe myself as a beer lover? More hoppy or less hoppy? Etc.?

Right now I love Fat Tire, Sam Adams, Alaskan Amber, sometimes go for Guiness...

I would call you middle of the road. None of those are hoppy, but they are all the gateway beers. You would need to try a few different beers and let me know what you thought of them for me to be able to narrow it down. Let me know if you want me to compile a list.

Actual answer - it costs pretty much peanuts assuming you have someone that can code the site. Cheap hosting and $5 domain name registration for a year and off you go.

Or just use one of the bajillion blogger/social media sites and purpose it for your nefarious ... um, purposes.

Yes, it is awesome. It is probably one of the more under-rated barrel aged stouts, IMO. That is probably because it is too easy to come by so all the beer nerds can't possibly think it is good.

Mop-Up March (Cleaner's idea sounded good)

All-Acquired April (100% trophy acquisition month?)

That's a start, at least.
Click to expand...
Mop-up March sounds like could be where you go back and beat the games that you already started on your trophy card.

Also on the talk of beer. Blue moon is fucking great. Fat Tire on the other hand, while I don't dislike it as much as Pharm, was not a fan of it or the four pack that it came in with.

Well I have other beers I like, but they are more local i believe... A brewery restaurant here has a butt face Ale, I also liked an Avalanche Ale. I think I have found a love for most ale's and ambers.

For me, my beer taste is more based on smoothness with not too much change in the flavor. Also not too much after taste. For instance I do not like Blue Moon for the Cirtus'y after taste. The Ambers and Ale's I like are consistent throughout drinking it if that makes sense. I know what I like but it is always hard when I ask for a recommendation at places but don't know what to ask for.

I am a fucking idiot. I kept wondering why all you other guys kept getting stuff from Jimbo on Near and I never did even if I updated right before the time when you guys updated. It turns out I didn't have him on my friend list.

I made it through 24 levels in crushing last night, so hopefully I can knock the rest of crushing mode out tonight.

I got a card from you just now. Just 3 more cards and I have everything other then the fetishes which there is no trophy for. Got 3 or 4 cards from Zimm this week as well.

Yeah, you and Pharm seem to have similar tastes. You want sweet and not bitter beers. If you tend to like smoked or roasty flavors, you need to try a Russian Imperial Stout. Since you obviously get Avery stuff, Czar is theirs. Collaboration Not Litigation would be a good one to try if you could find that one anymore. It is a Belgian style that Avery makes.

Just do not go off the reservation and grab a Double IPA or an American Barleywine like last time.

Cool, I need to update again soon. I was worried I was going to get a fetish this morning since Zimm got a card from you like 1 minute before I checked. Luckily he had something I did not have yet. I have 2 sets complete out of the 5.

Hopefully, when I check around noon I will get another rare from you and Zimm can pick up one from me assuming his lunch is later.

ETA: Wren, if you see this before noon, do me a favor and update the Black Market before playing Resogun. Maybe I can get a 2fer from you and Jimbo.

How much did the cat cost to begin with?

If you are that averse to after taste, you would probably be a tough one to pick for. Even if you like hoppy beers, only a subset of them are dry enough to not have an after taste. Since I typically want an IPA that leaves an oily residue in my mouth due to it being so over the top hoppy, I wouldn't really pay attention to ones that are more of a clean finish.

Pliny the Elder is the most widely known dry finish IPA. You are in one of only a few states that get it. I think you only get it on tap though. The chances of you being able to get it since people probably wait in line for it when they know it is arriving is probably pretty slim.

You could try a couple of semi-local beers from Oskar Blues to know if you like hoppy beers or not: Dale's Pale Ale, G'knight, and Gubna

I'm working from home today so I can fire it up every three hours. I'll hit it up in a bit here.

Need just one more in the silver collection, and like 4 in whatever the first collection is.

Dale's Pale Ale is good. I have had G'knight too, but can't remember what it was like.

Nice. I need 3 Arcana Major's Have all the coins so maybe a later update you will get a coin from me.

No worries, the more I thought after that post, it probably makes more sense for you to update before Jimbo so he can finish his off.

I'll get whatever I can today, but I am hoping I can grind out the rest of them tonight that I do not get anyway. I would like to make it my 10th game of the month.

 
Yeah, unfortunately I actually have to do some work as my boss wants us to meet in two hours to review a presentation we need to give to a senior exec Monday.  And we havent even created it yet.
