I hate to do it, but I'm thinking at 20 people, I may have to stop adding people until it comes around again. There are guys who have already been waiting a while and 2 weeks at 20 people is the better part of a year!

Can I suggest instead of constantly sending new lists, what you think about one of those coordinator guys keep up with the list and when someone is ready to mail it, the next address and info gets emailed ... just a thought.

And Baron you can e-mail me another fresh new shiny list. I'm putting the box in the mail tomorrow and haven't yet printed the new list.
Just a thought.

The lists aren't hard for me to update. It's just a Word file. I am going to wait to mail any further ones until there is a change that affects the next recipient. I expected a mass of updates once the new thread was posted. I think there are 19 on there now. By the time I send a new one out, some may have dropped off and others added.
Like Jason mentioned you should always post when you have the box and, of course, we are pic whores on this forum, so post pix!
I received the box completely unexpected. I didn't know I was next on the list and I thought Bubba was done with us and wasn't sending it anyway. It was like Christmas Morning! I hadn't had time to get on, but I texted Hobie right away. I'm glad to see it back in business.

And we're grateful you took the reins, so to speak. Thanks for keeping it going and taking care of all the logistics.

This is just a suggestion.
If the list gets too long or the box gets to big it might be in the interest of doing an east/west or North/south box pass. Have 2 boxes going. Seeing as there is a butt load of new members going to be jumping on when the 4 month mark hits. Not to mention the box is getting so over packed for the flat rate... unless some one wants to put a vacume sealing machine in there?
EDIT: as a bonus it would also mean more pics to drool over and more guys or girls would get the chance to see a box sooner rather than later.

If it gets to where we have two boxes and that many people we will have to have a separate person to handle the other list. When the pass started out, there was two for a while but it turned into a headache and then fell off the map. I'm hoping everyone on the list will be straight with the rest of us. If so, we can literally keep this thing going for years!

Yeah. That was a pain. Especially if you saw a blend you wanted to try in the South box and you only got the North box. I think this might be OK if everyone keeps to the two week timeframe. It'll move a hell of a lot faster than it has in the past.

The Mighty Box shall be at Crpntr1's doorstep tomorrow.
USPS Priority Mail- 03120860000110682161
Enjoy. I didn't take a picture of what I added but here's what I put in:
Key Largo by G.L. Pease - I still haven't tried it yet, I cracked the tin to contribute to the box lol
Black Spice by Altadis - Tastes like allspice and nutmeg
Chocolate Mint #105 by McClelland - It's very subtle, I was hoping for more mint but that didn't happen.
Cinnamon by Peter Stokkebye - Smells really nice and tastes like cinnamon. Very one dimensional but a good all day smoke.
I don't remember if I put in some Shortcut to Mushrooms or not... I hope I did. :(
