    Default Premium Draft Spring 2011

    (*plagiarized from DG, prophetic_joe, Ash and Logan.)

    Spring Premium Cigar Draft 2010

    The Godfathers of Cigar Drafts ricmac25 & gatorsmg at Cigar Snobs came up with this idea and I'm just a poor schlep continuing it here.

    This is a pass of sorts but done in a fantasy football draft style.

    # of participants
    You just need to be a CigarSmokers member in good standing(at my and the "regulars" discretion) and here longer than a month. I will allow as many people who what to play join!

    # of sticks to play
    5 sticks. This is a Premium cigar draft so I'm putting the minimum price at $7/stick. If you have any question about a stick post it and if no one says anything with in two days then it's good to go. Do some damn research to get an idea of what your smoke is worth. It's the interweb for God's sake, just think--all that false information right at your fingertips! I will be double checking anything that I or another feel might be under the minimum.

    How it will work
    Everyone playing will submit 5 sticks to the draft. These sticks should be posted in the draft thread (Please wait two days before sending sticks for review. If no one says anything then mail away.).

    All sticks will be mailed to me along with $5 ,cash is fine, to help with my shipping costs back to each participant.(If a brother from up North wants in I'll figure out the shipping with him via PM) Once all sticks have been received I will post a list of all cigars in the draft. We will make our selections just as in a fantasy football draft ie: if there are five players each player chooses any one stick per turn in this order 1,2,3,4,5,5,4,3,2,1 etc. I will put all of the participants names in a hat and draw them one at a time, the 1st drawn being first to pick in the draft and so on. After each selection is made it will be posted in the thread and the next person will make their selection.

    So it's basically a pass but instead of taking your turn and then seeing something you would have liked to try pop up later when it's too late you get to see ALL of the possibilities up front. Of course the hard part is deciding which sticks are a "priority for you".

    Depending on how many people join the draft, I might impose a time restriction for picks to be made. If you won't be able to make a choice but don't want to be skipped, I have no problem if you get in contact with another member of the draft and give them a list of your choices in order of priority so that they may make the pick for you if that stick is available.

    If you're in, say so! Let's do this!

    Aaron, you might want to modify the post where you say "Check and compare prices Here to get an idea of what your smoke is worth" - it used to be a link to cigarcyclopedia's price comparison guide... are we gonna base prices off of the December 2010 edition of it? I have it saved if you need a copy of it.

    What I've been doing lately, is google search the brand / line / vitola, and then hit "shopping" and then sort highest to lowest, and then over "$xxx" to get me into box price land. Obviously some of the vendors are nobodies, like BnBTobaccy, but it gives you a good idea.

    Modified. Should have re-read it after the c/p but alas, kinda lazy.

    Think it over. The draft is fun and there's relatively little work involved on your end. If you're really out, I'll drop you this weekend.

    Sorry, I'm out - those gray market websites really lower the prices of (ETA: some) ISOMs!
