Fuente Fuente Opus X Forbidden X + 1 for raffle, to benefit the American Red Cross

[Diesel Grinch]

Am I the only one that feels raffling off a gifted cigar even for a good cause is bad form? Even if the giver said it was ok.

It might just be me but I smoke every cigar that I'm gifted, get from a pass, draft, PIF, or a contest. I do feel it's bad form to do anything else with these cigars.

CG is like school in the summertime.......no class!

I would scrap the "closest number" logic.

I suggest:
If a number does not come up in the lottery, everyone keeps their numbers and moves on to the next day, rinse, repeat. This works out to an equal chance for all players, so long as there are less than 44 participants.

Why wasn't CC's cigar in the auction???? Let's stay consistent here!

Oh man, the irony...and I'm not sure what to think of this either:

He calls out CC the night before:

Writes a poll about him:

and then smokes one of his cigars the same day....

I know. I'm a regifter!

Under normal circumstances I would agree with you. I wasn't exactly bombed the stick. The circumstances surrounding the origin of the raffle are documented for posterity elsewhere. PM me if you want the link.
