Hmmm, your last pick wasn't prime... interesting.

The first 3 cigars I got were in my top 10.

1. Liga Privada T52 Belicoso---Buzz

Thanks for hosting the pass! My picks look good.

ETA: Pick ranking - I didn't have a set one all the way down, because I knew nothing about the majority of the smokes. However, being (second) last, I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to get some Opus. (I've only had one other Opus ever, and have never had any of my other picks, so that went well.)

Sorry guys been at a landfill all day today and just got back to the hotel.

16. Padron Magnum Maduro - Sep 07---Craig

<snip>

Funny, I thought this one was easily the best of my puts, and it went last. (I'm talking of the particular boxes that I pulled the cigars from, not the brands or vitolas generally.) Two hours of smoking pleasure await you.

The Magnums are good. If the AB went, that was next. Only reason it was down farther is I was trying to pick stuff I haven't had before.

18 or so) 13. Oliva V Belicoso---ashauler

Pretty good list.

[Eville]

Funny, I thought this one was easily the best of my puts, and it went last.

I'm not quite brave enough to take on 9 inches yet.

2 - 9. RASS (2006)---slcraiders
5 - 40. Padron Serie 1926 #2 ( Torpedo )---Mizicke5273
6 - 43. Ashton ESG 21 Year Robusto---Logan 37
13 -47. Tat Verocu Red Tubo---EGQ
21 -54. Padron Anniversary Maduro ~ Toro---Badwhale

My list was pretty optimistic. I think most of my top 10 all went in the first 2 rounds. It's no 1,2,3 but I'm extremely satisfied. Thanks for hosting this Aaron!

[logan37]

Looks good to me Aaron.

I was able to pick my #1 and #3 choice. The other 3 were in my top 20. Plus that 2nd anejo Will picked for me was a nice surprise! Thanks again Aaron and thanks for everyone participating for the smooth run of the draft. (Except you Cody. Landfill my ass.)

[mrtr33]

Ahh. Wine, Opus X and Harry Potter...

He's out back near the railroad track eating a snack with his best friend Zack who deals crack out of a black sack.

Sorry guys been at a landfill all day today and just got back to the hotel.

so much fodder.....just don't think this can't follow you in to the PPP

I'm happy with mine, here's how I had them ranked:
(1) 56. Montecristo #2 ENE 10---heftysmokes
(2) 57. Partagas Serie P no. 2 SEP 09---heftysmokes
(6) 58. WOAM---heftysmokes

(19) 48. Camacho 10th Anny---EGQ

I can't say I haven't smoked them before....but, that's a good thing.

[slcraiders]

I am extremely pleased with my picks. Thanks again, Aaron. I did not pre-rank anything in advance, so I cannot share a breakdown.

--Tachy, yours is on hold until I find a suitable box for the Padron; it's a hair long for the standard priority box

--Paddy's is on hold until he wants them sent along.

--Craig's is on hold because he's Canadian (that's not really why; I'm just going to do some creative packaging to make sure they get there clear).

--Buzz, I'm putting together a little something for your package, but I have to wait for the chili dog I had for lunch to pass so...

[Eville]

Just go ahead and cram Tachy's in there. He told me to tell you that, and also to not worry about being gentle.

That's two of those in this thread now!

[heftysmokes]

Ya, I might just cut three inches off the head of that, probably make for a nice morning quickie.

[ashauler]

All these doors open and I'm fresh out of smart-ass replies. Shit.
