I want to play but I will sit this one out because I see a giant clusterfuck war brewing just like the PIF trainwreck. Good luck guys

**prophetic_joe** · 11-08-2005, 08:44 PM

SHHH we'll will not have pesemistic attitudes in the Santa forum thank you very much. Nothing but big bright rays of sunshine, wait the sun can hurt your eyes right? Damn.

**SuperChuck** · 11-08-2005, 10:23 PM

Count me in!

**godfather** · 11-08-2005, 10:44 PM

Yay for secret Santa. Go Santa!

**mithril** · 11-08-2005, 11:09 PM

that's awsome GF.

**TheVitaleMob** · 11-08-2005, 11:48 PM

I'm in if it's okay with you guys

**JJ Westbrook** · 11-12-2005, 08:22 PM

... or can a new guy join in?

I only recently found this site for sure, but I really like this place and want to get to know you guys (and for you to get to know me). This is a REALLY great idea you guys have put together here and I think it would be a good chance fore me to start participating.

Anybody mind?

bigpoppapuff · 11-12-2005, 10:19 PM

jump in....

**thepyrofish** · 11-13-2005, 05:10 AM

Cheers for the use of the word "clusterfuck" kevin, it's a personal favourite of mine.

Howdy JJ. To be honest, I am somewhat leary of someone so new, to the board and cigars, participating. I think you should spend some time getting to know folks and do some personal trades and participate in the PIF etc., and develop a rep before getting in the SS.

Shagaroo is that going to be the call on JJ Westbrook that he'll have to wait until he is better known? He already sent me his info. Or we can let him in and just let anyone who has an issue with it pm me and I'll make sure they don't have him as their secret santa?

This also brings up another issue. One of the member's playing is from Canada and I have no idea about shipping to Canada? Is this going to make life difficult. If some one knows more about shipping between Countries please post the info. This way who ever ends up with him and who ever he ends up with will know what to expect?

Shipping to Canada isn't terribly painful. I just sent the Review These cigars up there last week to pyrofish. It's more expensive than shipping in the US and you need to jump through a couple hoops, but it's not all that bad. You do need the recipient's phone #, though.

i've traded with someone in canada. it was only $2 and it got there in 5 days.

I guess I'll play.

If everyone is aware and has no problem with it, I won't stand in the way. I would like to hear more from the rest of the folks participating. I would just hate for someone to get a box of overpriced Macanudos. Not because JJ is a bad guy, just from inexperience and lack of sources. Perhaps if JJ agrees to run his package past you before he ships? It makes me nervous though.

**grand cru no 2** · 11-14-2005, 11:37 AM

I have to say I'm with Shagaroo on this one. It's not a slam on JJs character or anything but with him being so new he's an unknown variable. And something like Secret Santa can be completely ruined by a questionable package or someone not sending.
