Take 3 ~ Worth:$5.87 Put 29 ~ Worth: $8.44
Take 6 ~ Worth:$5.64 Put 30 ~ Worth: $7.12
Take 10 ~ Worth:$2.40 Put 31 ~ Worth: $4.22
Take 13 ~ Worth:$2.49 Put 32 ~ Worth: $4.38
Take 22 ~ Worth:$11.81 Put 35 ~ Worth: $17.00
The man has a point. Considering this is a pass with a lot of new members we do need to try to keep the values a lot closer to what the original sticks were. I know when I was a new member on CP and would want to get involved in a pass I'd look at the list and realize I had nothing to really offer. It's not going to be a good feeling for that new guy to get that pass and see that he really can't swap out with more than a couple of cigars but still have to fork over the money to ship it to the next guy. Not going to be fun considering he didn't really get to play much.
