I think it's important that all participants keep up with the buy.
Maybe each participant should deposit $20 for access to the order portal, to be applied to their order but forfeited if they dissapear at payment time.

Maybe set the deadlines in the first post. Set the closing date, and set a payment deadline. Everyone will know approximately when to start checking the spreadsheet for their total, and when they need to have payment completed, and they know it all before they order. We're all doing this electronically, probably a fair portion have email and paypal in their pocket. Then, IF there needs to be updates or changes to the schedule, you can make them in the first post.
If we assume a payment cut off of Monday or Tuesday, what's the epa for pick up?
Problem solved!
Thanks again! Everyone thought it was pretty amazing that we were able to come up with a specialized piece of equipment 5 mins from my buddies house on a Saturday night. Then i told them the grain buy size. Quite a cool little network.
Thanks ylPaul, Bill, THirstT, & johns!
My buddy has a sanke kegerator... Cough Sixtel buy cough cough!

All of them have substantial number of splits and they are messing orders for a lot of ppl
There are three people who I have not heard from at all regarding payment. I have sent them emails yet again. I'll decide at the end of today whether we should drop their orders.
The best part of the whole thing is that Starman brought me a KBS and his KBS clone! Both were totally unnecessary but appreciated, and after several people had tested both the overwhelming opinion was that Starman's clone was the clear winner. If I may be so bold as to ask is there any chance I could get your recipe?
One guy backed out and this is what we have left of his stuff. Anybody want to claim it?
2 full sacks Briess 2-Row Brewers Malt
1 full sack Bairds Malt Maris Otter
1/2 sack Briess Caramel Munich 60L

Out of all the people that bought into this GB there is bound to be a few defectors. but overall I think the percentage has been exceptionly low

I thought there a deadbeat rule where anyone to not follow through gets banned from this and future buys, is that still in effect?
No splits for newbs....no splits for newbs.....
Maybe an simple policy of no splits within the order mgmt. system until you've participated at least once successfully as a way of vetting the ill intended...not saying that's the case..
Even for the best intentioned people, invariably something will come up for someone. I'd like to see a mass email to brewers giving notice that payment is due followed by 72 hour window to pay or at minimum an email Bill. After that period, if there is still radio silence - splits go to the masses and sacks get dropped.
