This is a pass for cool geeks with similar tastes! It's been over a year since the last one, so let's do it again.

There are 2 twists...

Twist 1: As the moderator I am going to leave this pass up to the participants. That means no checking with me about puts and takes, because I trust you as a BOTL, and have been in passes with you, or trust geeks who have. Hence "auto pilot." If you HAVE to get validation, just ask another particpant, they'll steer you in the right direction.

Twist 2: This pass will consist ONLY of sticks from the following brands: (this year we are adding an L!)

Partagas (ISOMS)
Illusione
La Flor Domincana
Liga Privada
L'Atelier
Oliva
Tatuaje

Hence "PILLLOT"


In the initial list, I will place 2 cigars from each brand 1 being regular production the other LE, HTF,or Extinct.

Who wants in? I haven't sent out any invites. I'll try and get some out to the geeks that participated the last time, but new blood is always welcome as long as you have a little street cred around here.

We've got a little more room, although we do already have enough to have a pass. I'll let it go for a few more days as I find the perfect container, box, and whatever else.

In the meantime does anyone have any requests as far as position in the pass? I'm probably just going to leave it in the order that everyone signed up (save for Karl being last for the Virtual Portion).

So if you have special circumstances that might cause the box to sit on a stoop for a few days, please let me know via PM, or just post in this thread.

Hey Mike, just to be clear, we don't have to swap letter for letter right?  I mean we can take and put whatever we want, as long as they are the correct brands, rather than Tat for Tat and so on?

Correct, however, it would be nice if we maintained all the initials throughout the pass. For example, try not to take the last Oliva, and replace it with an LFD.

As always in any pass if you take a HTF, or limited replace it with a HTF or limited of similar value/rarity. CC for CC etc.

That's the last I'll say about it, because this pass goes on auto pilot when I drop it off on Tuesday. I'm going to try real hard not to even look at the P/T's during the pass. I trust everyone in the pass to do the right thing.

 Ready to go.  Mike, I have no problem doing it but from Jackal to me and then me to sjn117, this is  going coast to coast and all the way back.  Just thought I would point that out, but again I'm good with it if you are.

Yeah... I figure many passes move geographically, so members often end up sending or receiving from the same geeks. Just thought is mix it up a little. As long as we keep a little distilled in the tupperdore humidifier the sticks should be fine.

 That is very true.  I always seem to receive and send to the same couple guys during passes. I like your idea better.

I sent a message to Cigar Place through their customer service, as well as an email to her work email. No response from either. It's weird because I still don't think Jessica stole the pass, I feel like life must've gotten in the way somehow or something strange happened.

In any case it's a bummer, and I'd like some answers.

Post by: CigarPlace on 09/18/2014 01:30 PM
Okay guys. I'm really sorry for the delay but I now know what happened and have fixed the issue. When I receive a pass, I create an order for whatever items I'm putting in the pass box and the addresses on the invoice are "fake" addresses as they're used for our internal accounting processes. The Ship-to address in this case is a NJ address that we use when we need to create an order without sales tax being assessed. Well, these invoices all have notes written at the top of them to not be shipped but instead brought back to me. This package got set aside with others to come back to me before it shipped out and never got shipped despite my being told that it did ship to the wrong address.

I know that it has taken me entirely too long to get this pass back out to you all and for that I am sorry. I also didn't have the notifications for this group turned on. I included a selection of ScrewPop Screwdrivers and Flashlights for each of you to chose from along with membership applications for CRA if any of you are not already members. We will also be sitting out for the next few passes aside from the next poker one I'll be hosting here in the next few weeks. This was my responsibility and I dropped the ball all the way around. Many apologies to my fellow Geeks.

I created a shipping label online Saturday evening when I did puts and takes. I did it from my ipad and couldn't print the label at that time. I could not get to post office on Sunday, so I tried to print it early Monday before work. Unfortunately, usps site wouldn't let me print the label since I had put ship date as Sunday. Rather than call and haggle with usps, I just bought new label Monday so I could get this in the mail.

That new label DC is 9405903699300261524687.

It says delivered at 12:56pm yesterday.
