    Default My 100th Post...Contest for the Vets

    For my 100th post I thought I would do something a little different.
    In honor of the generosity I’ve seen and experienced on this board, here is a little contest for you.

    Only a few ground rules:
    1. Must be an active member for at least two years. (This contest is meant to be a thank you for the more senior members.)
    2. Must have at least 250 posts.
    3. Players must reside in the lower 48 or Canada.
    4. You can guess twice per day.
    5. I will try to update daily the amount of correct responses you have.
    6. 1st person to get all the answers correct will win the prize.
    7. I will start to give clues if this isn’t over in a few days
    8. No editing your posts or you are disqualified

    What’s the prize you ask? The prize will be 5 of the sticks that were most influential in turning me into a cigar smoker. Hopefully, we’ll have some fun and someone will be walking away with a handful of Backwoods, Phillies, White Owls as well as a couple that are pretty gross. What do you expect; they’re free and I'm a newb.

    Please feel free to just put the letters in successive order. (X,Y,Y,X...) Sorry, should've said that in the beginning. Although, with Buzz's answers I'm kind of glad I didn't. Too bad you're wrong.

    Default Day 1 Results

    It's obvious I haven't been around long that's for sure.

    So far, the leaders are:
    Ashauler: 5 Correct
    Mangyrat: 5 Correct

    Trailing behind are:
    Badwhale: 2 Correct
    Craig: 2 Correct

    And, pulling up the rear
    Buzz: Solamente Uno!!! Hey, at least you're beating mrtr33

    Ok...Just so we don't get bored with this I will start giving clues, beginning right now. Also, with each guess you may ask a question. I will either answer it honestly, cryptically or not at all depending on the question.

    1st clue. The verbiage is very important in question #1.

    Thanks for playing.

    Question #3
    I don't see cuddling with other dudes as an option.

    I kid, I kid. I don't qualify so I thought I would give you a hard time instead.
