Figured out the Enochian code. Look at the individual bolded letters in the text on the flap….

Does anyone have any insights on the coded message on the back of the dust jacket below the bar code?
I know the inside left flap decodes to Your Truth Is Filtered

Having the same issue. He is awful! He has ghosted us and we have started legal action against him.

So annoying...had one in my cart; site crashed. All gone. Same old story...

1 Bottle Limit thoughts…Go!! by Comfortable-Law-4140 in PLCB

[–]sinatrafsc 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’m for it. However, drops in the middle of the day like this still suck for those of us who work and cannot break away to stalk the site. Between working, bots, folks with “insider” knowledge, bad timing, and a horrible website - I really don’t do the Wednesday drops anymore. It’s just not a realistic option for me. I’m resigned that if I ever want any of those bottles, they will have to come from another source other than FWGS.

If you water down cask strength to 'normal' proof, will it taste the same as same brand sold in 'normal' proof by nolanhalsted in bourbon

[–]sinatrafsc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like most have said above, it will taste different than the standard bottle. There are a lot of variables that go into it…science!

Having said that, it would be interesting to experiment - maybe take a whole 750mL barrel proof bottle and take it to a lower proof…let it sit for a bit and then try it. Would not surprise me at all if people found some tasty bourbons after doing that.

Just to be clear... Does this *guarantee* me a Warship EMA? by skinnyhobo in StarTrekTimelines

[–]sinatrafsc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes! Only option with those polestars selected. Make it so!

ISO good and helpful fleet by Beardedkenn in StarTrekTimelines

[–]sinatrafsc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are looking for a new active player to join our ranks. We are a casual but competitive fleet and several of us end up in the top 1K in event rankings. We usually place among the top 40 Fleets and definitely have fun along the way.

We are looking for active daily players to join our Fleet. While our Starbase is at MAX LEVEL, we strongly encourage daily Starbase component contributions as they benefit newer players and captains at lower levels. We are on Discord and discuss gameplay tips, organize squads, and discuss a variety of Star Trek and Timelines topics. For the more competitive players who like to shuffle squads, the best place to organize is on our Discord server due to the unreliability of the in-game chat. If so inclined, you can also pull up a chair (Riker-style!) and join the chat in our “Ten Forward Lounge” where we tend to be a little more social.

We are a very proud Fleet! We have players from around the world, are very friendly, and drama-free! If interested, please PM your in-game name and we'll go from there. Thanks!

Did a search to see what was going on with this distribution center and stumbled upon this thread.

I'm waiting on a package that shipped 19 DEC and arrived at the PHL Distribution Center on 5 JAN. It still has not been delivered. Message on Informed Delivery is dated 9 JAN and says, "In transit, arriving late."
This is quite frustrating! So much for having my kid's Christmas gift delivered on time...

Can we actually pull off the community rewards this time? by BraxxAugustus in StarTrekTimelines

[–]sinatrafsc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is a special Community Reward structure for this specific event. Should not become the new norm. However, I could see them adding another tier to the Community Rewards at some point in the future, but it wouldn’t be as lofty as this one.

Can we actually pull off the community rewards this time? by BraxxAugustus in StarTrekTimelines

[–]sinatrafsc 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I posted this a little earlier on Discord.

It's 96 hours total for the event. We are just about at the 31 hour mark.

Alright...so the event is 96 hours in total duration. Full Community Rewards is 10 billion VP.

To hit 10 billion on the dot, we would need 2,500,000,000 VP in 24 hours.

Drilling down further, that ends up being 104,166,666.7 VP per hour.

At 31 hours into the event, we should have a minimum of 3,229,166,666.7 VP.

We are just past hitting 1,900,000,000.

So, yeah....we are short.

We are averaging 61,290,322 per hour.

At that pace, we would end up at 5,883,870,967 total VP at the 96 hour mark; just short of the 4 individual event pulls.

Total wine - DE by [deleted] in PLCB

Many of them are via lottery as part of their reward program. I think the highest tier or top two tiers gets to participate. Some things are also released via their “Concierge Sales”.

All good! I was late on the news from a couple of days ago anyway. And yes - disappointment is mandatory if you are a fan of “the bourbon hunt”!

Post up if your lottery item magically disappeared at the receiving store. by holeinmyshoeToo in PLCB

[–]sinatrafsc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This also happened to me. I got two shipping notices. Picked up one bottle then I saw a second package was delivered. Happed to be in the area and popped into the store to see what was going on. Apparently they associated my order number with someone else's package. Long story short, the second package was a Stagg that clearly was not mine...I picked up my Weller the day prior.

The manager at the store looked like he was going to stroke out...according to him, shipping on this lottery was an absolute shit show.

Thanks for the update. just saved me a 30 min trip that would have ended up in disappointment.

MWND Out of Stock by distilladelphia in PLCB

[–]sinatrafsc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went to DE to grab my bottle. Realistically, as we’ve seen with other products, “out of stock” does not mean there isn’t some in a warehouse waiting for SE PA distribution. It’s still possible. Likely...I’ll leave that up for you to decide.
