If you guys don't mind a newbie in on the fun, then I'm game. I do have a couple questions though.

1. It was stated... "smoke and review (blind) one naked cigar." By blind, does that simply mean no label? I can't imagine we will all be on a webcam blindfolded...but?!? Probably self explanatory for most but when there's an investment on my part I like to be certain. You'd understand better if you met the guys I play golf with.

2. Another splitting hairs question. If there are 14 players at the start, there will be 14 individual guesses correct? 7 from each team. The team forum is for the team to narrow down if possible and brainstorm, but not necessarily come to a unanimous decision. Correct?

Anyway, sounds like fun. If you want to reserve the slots for more seasoned members I totally understand, just let me know.

You're in. Yes, blind just means without the label - you don't have to be blindfolded. Yes, 14 individual guesses - the team does not have to come to a unanimous decision.

Alright, let's do this. Looking forward to it fellas.

If my math is correct (Jamie is double-checking it right now) we are currently at $68.47 per player. If we get 2 more players signed up before Monday the cost will go down to $60.01 per player.

There will be 7 prize pack winners. Prize packs will be 4-6 cigars.

Funny you should say that........I think I asked a couple via PM.

Whoever gets stuck with me is going to regret asking me to play!

two team captains who will take turns choosing their teammates (elementary-school-dodgeball-style)

Jamie found some math mistakes...

If we get 1 more player signed up the price will be $61.01 per player. We need 1 more player to round out the teams...

1 more person who isn't afraid...

1 more person willing to try...

1 more person...

Craig, you don't need to worry about any of those other shows; you haven't been missing anything. The only show you should really pay attention to is Project Runway, which, I believe, is the theme for the MEGA Review VI.

That actually looks like it might be an interesting show. However, I grew up in the fashion industry, so I'm biased.

$61.01 per player.

You're just begging to be sent pennies, aren't you?

[Mangyrat]

IF some one signs up twice and they play on both teams?

[FightingFish]

I am just now noticing the subtleties between a fine swisher and a lesser backwoods. Pick me! pick me!

How do we choose captains?

How do we choose captains?

Buzz and I will put all the names on a dart board and each throw one dart........

[TheGreekTitan]

IMO the captains should be veterans of the board and have played the game before.

[ashauler]

IMO the captains should be veterans of the board and have played the game before.

Well, the first part can be handled, but since this is an entirely new game, and buzz and I are just kinda making shit up as we go along, the second part is not really possible. I can guarantee you that some thought will be put into the selection of the captains......just realize who is doing the thinking.

Yep, that is what we are probably going to do... the only job for the captain is to choose his teammates.

...and go down with the ship if she hits a berg.

I made another math error... <rolling eyes smiley>

I'll post the correct price up this weekend when I figure out how to use a calculator properly.

[craig]

I nominate Hefty and VanMark to be captains.

[heftysmokes]

hey buzz why don't you use that piece of shit random number generator to pick captains you cheating bastard!! You know i won that contest!!
