Here is the real deal! The rules are as follows:
5 cigars gets you 5 squares
10 cigars gets you 10...you can see a trend!
20 squares max per geek.
Cigar Values - C'mon, there is no need to explain what to do. It's only your CG reputation on the line!...do it up CG style bytches!!
(still clueless???...how about some nice f'n ceegars! no dog rockets, include 1 premium cigar per 5 if you can...you know how we roll!)
Payout
End of 1st Qtr Score - 20 cigars
End of 2nd Qtr Score - 20 cigars
End of 3rd Qtr Score - 20 cigars
Final Score - 40 cigars
If the game goes to overtime, the end of the 4th Qtr does NOT win the contest...Final Score. Got it???
Here is who committed so far. If we do not fill up the squares by Sunday, the contest is null and void
Cfickter - 5
AustinMike - 10
headfirst - 5
ninfiction - 5
Chrism305 - 5
Deener27 - 5
RDF - 5
05Venturer - 5
bstessl - 5
johncw - 5
nirab - 5
amigodecigars - 5
apollo - 5
70 filled...30 to go...it's up to y'all!
Ship out your cigars asap... I am out of town from Feb 1-5th.
Brian put me down for 5
If you need to fill another 5 at the end I'll take them..Would be cool to get more geeks to join first though.
Put me down for 5 cigars.

done!
The clock is ticking, need to fill this up asap...who doesn't want a chance to win some cigars??!!
Do the winners get random 5 packs (best choice i think) or is it going to be overly complicated with a draft of some sort?
Anyway I'd like to be in for 10, I will get them out tomorrow afternoon.
Brian ,I will send you the sticks after we know its a go.
"If we do not fill up the squares by Sunday, the contest is null and void"
So we do not know if we are even having the contest until Sunday( if it is not filled up) but you want us to ship the cigars to make it to you by Wednesday?? :confused:
Brian I played in one of these a couple years ago and we sent the list of sticks in ,the co-ordinate approved the sticks and a list was made.The different groups of sticks were then picked by the winners and the person who's group they picked sent the cigars directly to them.The picking order was randomly selected.

These rules seemed to work well
I think it's too rushed to do the format you had last year... Just my opinion

Yep this is the one I'm talking about seem to work well
I will jump in for at least 5 squares - will take 10 if needed. I agree - with the short time window we can submit the list of cigars and mail directly to the winners.
Here are the sticks I pulled. I will post the particulars later tonight.
Sorry, that resize didn't go as planned. I can regroup if you think they are out of balance.
This is getting way too complicated. I'm out.

yea, hard concept to wrap your head around, isn't it???
the cigars do not have to arrive by Wed, that was an oversight on my part...you are much smarter than that!...I think???
be like Chrism305! post a pic, and ship away! as long as the squares get filled up, and the cigars are here when I get back, this can work. if not, no worries. I know its a bit rushed, but it can be done. it ain't life or death stuff. lets keep it open until next Saturday to fill the squares, and get the sticks out any chance you get. I plan on putting names into a hat and randomly assigning squares, and then using a deck of cards to assign numbers.
if cigars arrive while I'm gone, my wife is trained in proper cigar storage!

perfect!
Sounds good will post a pic this weekend
First, Brian can we update the square count?
How are the squares picked? Are you going to post a Google Doc we can quickly fill in?
I am happy with the posting a pick or sending a list and have the winners pick by fiver. I would suggest the overall winner pick two, then each quarter pick one, rinse and repeat.

"Ship out your cigars asap... I am out of town from Feb 1-5th." < this certainly made it sound like you wanted the cigars to you by wednesday.
Guess I am not smart enough, I should be a mind reader or decoder to know that your wife would not be going with you
Can we get a count on where we are... I could do 10 but don't want to ship twice. Please let me know.

dude, let it go, this not earth shattering stuff...lighten up, heck, light one up!
After much thought and prayer, I've decided this is just too much to do in a short period of time. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused anyone. If you have shipped cigars to me, they will be returned to sender, along with a 5pk from me.
Enjoy the game my fellow geeks...may peace and love find you all...
This is unfortunate. Thanks for trying Brian!

Sorry to hear that Brian. Was looking forward to the contest.
Thanks for the effort to try to get it going, but sometimes things just don't work out.
Thanks Brian appreciate you giving it a big effort
You and Nuke can share the cigars that I sent. What the heck, give Kirby one or two!
Thanks Brian for giving it a go. Peace brother.
