I think the lack of response speaks volumes about the members here. Personally, I can't really take CA seriously. I feel the same way about Wine Spectator too. Even down to the oversized issues. I am guilty of reading the occasional issue in B&N but I'll never (ok, very rarely) pay for an issue.

As far as my opinions on the cigars, I can't say too much. I'd been slacking in the cigar department in 2010.

My chances of coming across a Behike are slim.

I'm a sucker for Opus X. I've only ever had a couple but theres just something about them. It's not surprising at all to see one in CA. It doesn't even really matter which vitola it is. But xXx is pretty catchy; shit load of nick-names, cult status, blah blah blah.

I heard quite a few positive comments about Illusione from the members here in 2010 so it seems appropriate they make an appearance in the top 25.

I really enjoyed the CT 50 yr. Haven't smoked a box-press though.

I also heard quite a bit about Oliva Vs last year and managed to enjoy a hand full of lanceros myself.

I think Casa Magna deserved the mention as well.

Specific ranking doesn't mean shit. Except for maybe #1.
