Mega Review Signup and Voting

[buzz]

Ok guys, I will take a stab at organizing this. I am still pretty new to this site, so if someone else would rather handle it feel free to let me know. Thanks to badwhale for the idea - Here are my thoughts one how this will work:

1. We decide on a cigar or cigars to review
2. MO's to me (or check if I know you) - PM me if you'd rather do a trade
3. I'll buy the cigars and distribute sticks to everyone who participates
4. By a certain date(s), everyone must submit to me via PM their review of the stick(s)
5. I'll post the results in a new thread for each cigar we review

I don't think we want it to just be 1 cigar sent to each person, 3-5 sounds better (because of the shipping cost). Fivers seem to work nicely math-wise, maybe we do that. It will really depend on how many people want to participate and what cigar(s) we choose to review. If we decide to review multiple cigars and you cannot afford to (or just don't want to) review all of the cigars, let me know and I will account for it in the distribution.

I will probably make a Review Sheet for everyone to fill out, that way the format is the same for everyone and it will be easier for me to compile. If you have access to a camera pictures are appreciated. This should be a pretty interesting way to see how people's tastes differ. It would also be a help to guys like me who struggle to figure out exactly what that taste is.

Reply here if you want to participate, also post your top 5 cigars that you would like considered for review.

Please post links so we can list the prices. If you know of a better deal than what is listed please let me know. Freebies will be distributed fairly or randomly sent to one of the participants (I won't keep freebies for myself).

If you have any suggestions/comments on how we run this please let me know.
