I have the baby on the way in May as well. So depending on how many people we have Brian might be better for me to stay closer to the front end of this (if you are generating the order as people join where I am is fine). Also just an idea but if you want to put Chuck and I beside each other it might make things just a tiny bit faster as we could just do a handoff. Just an idea. Not trying to tell you how to run your pass, as I ahve never moderated one.

I'd play as well if you still have room for another Geek. I'd be a Canadian virtual participant.  

But just so there are no surprises, February would not be good for me as I will be living at the hotel for 2-3 weeks while the remodelling is taking place in my house. March and on is fine. So if you'll have me, better place me later than sooner in the order.

I got you guys that sent the request.  Thank you everyone.  I did change this to 18 players and including myself there is 17, so one more if somebody wants in.  Sorry going to be first request first serve.  Don't want to make this pass too big and take too long.

this is probably a dumb question but why are you a virtual participant. Can't ship that many cigars to Canada and back?

 He will pick the cigars he wants and I will ship only those to him.  He will in return tell me what he is sending and sending just those to me.  cost will be low, I will do him at the end to make sure his remodeling is done

Not a dumb question at all! There are customs issues involved when sending passes back and forth to Candanaistan. Rather than take the risk for the whole shootin' match to be held up in Customs Limbo and perhaps heavy duties being assessed we routinely let the members from up North make their takes and puts from long range. That way only a relative handful of sticks are involved.

Correct - if, by chance, customs finds them they will level duty and taxes on the entire lot and/or confiscate the goods.  Sending only a few sticks reduces the chances of this significantly.

I was planning on starting in February cuz I didn't think thus would fill up as fast as it did.  I'm game for letting it rip if everyone wants to. I can select cigars, figure pass order this weekend and ship out Monday if everyone wants to get going??
