QuoteVroomp - 2/7/2015  7:48 AM  Seems we did one similar to this a year or two back. Might I suggest numbering the sticks in each color for the folks from the GWN to pick virtually? When a stick is taken it is replaced with a stick with the same number so they can pick red#5, blue#2, etc....... :?:

 That was Chris's pass too, it was the Yankee Swap Pass back in 2012.  Very Fun.

Chris, is each color representing the 4 groups.  So say if red was ISOM's, and a person doesn't own any they would stay away from that one color.

Never mind, answered my own question.  Just saw your cigar lineup.

Since it looks like I can kick this off early I am going to. The one change is that I would like to start with Mark in the Great White North. The Canadians are usually last so I will give him first crack at it. This way if the mountie's intercept it's only my sticks at risk. I can also leave the pass open for some stragglers while also beginning the pass.

Mark I can also give you the choice of going virtual or old school. I can send the whole thing to you or just your virtual picks. Just let me know.

After Mark I will have the pass order based on points.

Thanks for the invite Chris but, I need to sit this one out....... :-(

OK Jeff makes number 15. The pass order has been updated and it's time for kick-off.

Excellent, really excited for this. Such a cool idea.
This is not the admin you're looking for...

OK Mark here is a numbered pic to help you choose. I have transitioned the pass to you and will post shipping info after you have made your takes. 

 No one else needs to label the cigars when they get it. I only did it for Mark because his end is virtual.

Hi Chris I checked my mail this morning and it arrived safely. Thanks again I will open it when I get home and take some pics when did you want me to post them right away or wait all geeks receive them?

Also, I will pm tracking number I put 8 sticks in as a few extras and 1 is for Eric wish list. I have a leeter with it to explain all data needed.  I did not wrap the sticks in the paper since I didn't have any those colors. I wanted to keep the package as small as possible even at that it was 16 bucks to ship. Man you guys are so damn lucky not to pay these outrageous prices we do.

Regards,

Mark
