Puro Pot Pass IV!!!

[TachyCoventry]

Ok I've finally read through most of the threads that have been posted in the last 4 days. I'm going to keep this post relevant to the PPPIV and leave out all the nonsense about the PIF and the gaRy thread.

First and foremost I want to apologize to every member, new and old, who are participating in this pass. I have been lax the last week and could list a ton of reasons for it but they would be pitiful at best. I believe that because of my inactivity in the last few days the pass has gotten out of control. I am going to be paying much closer attention to the pass for the remainder to make sure that the rest of it runs smoothly.

I also wanted to send a few PMs to the following people but thought that I would just include them in this post instead.

To Bo - I did not receive your PM and I am sorry about that. I will make sure to check in with everyone before they post up so that if a situation arises where they can not verify the correct guess I will be able to step in and keep the pass moving.

To Mangy - Thank you for helping out while I was not online. I appreciate it and owe you one. I don't have your address but send it to me when you get a chance, I have a little something for you!

To MRTR - I feel like I've let you down on a more personal level since you ran this pass previously. I have removed GaRy from the pass and hope to have you stay in this.

Your guess would have been correct if I had sent my original pick to you... The illusione that I sent as one of my passes was my original pick and was a Nicaraguan, but the binder is not from Nicaragua, so it had to stay clothed. So, in my rush to run to New York City, I went diving into my humidor... And came out with a punch gran puro. So it's Honduran. Sorry Mangy!

I thought I had sent this info off to you guys before I left, I apologize again for my awkwardly timed travel plans, and your decency in dealing with me. I owe a package of cigars to the gentleman who kindly expressed mailed the package to me (I cannot remember your tag at the moment, I apologize) and I'll get those out on Tuesday (the 26th) to repay you for your help

Edit: Figured out the problem... My PM box filled up Friday morning, so a couple PM's didn't go out! Oops!

You were in NY and I wasn't notified?! You SOB!

Sorry, Logan! I was already only sleeping two hours a night while I was there - I don't think I could have handled any more, haha! We were running a tight schedule with the conference that I was attending, along with chasing after European women all week... Ended up quite busy I'm down a shirt, but I think I managed to make it home with everything else intact...

I'll be heading home from DC today so things should return to somewhat normal for me.

You didn't let me down. Like it's been said before in this thread, it's not like this pass is 'mine' or anything - I just hogged running it for 2 years in a row. I think you've been doing a fine job, and everyone understands that things come up - I think we all would have appreciated a little heads up if you knew you were going to be out this past week. But you did have a backup (Mangy), and Bo responded in a somewhat timely fashion; let's move on and keep this pass going.

My requirement for continued participation in this pass has been met. My reasons have been well documented in various threads the last few days - no need to rehash it here again. Simply put, I seek to avoid asshatery in the passes I participate in.
