Firstly. It 'PROVES' that the 'knewbee' actually OWNS some cigars. (Unlike previous players: i.e. Berry, Danny, etc).
Secondly. It prevents them from reneging on their end of the arrangement (unlike. previous players..etc, etc).
(It would also stop them from recycling some of the cigars they recieve and keeping the rest (See above)
Obviously, it also means that the recipient has them 'in-hand' prior to sending their 'bomb'... and 'yes'.. it may take away some of the fun (assuming, some of you guys consider getting 'screwed over' fun?), however, as it only applies to 'first-time' players, very few swaps would be affected.
I'd rather something like the above was adopted, (simple, reliable and easy to monitor), than put a whole load of rules and regulations in place. But that's just me.
Either way, I just hope the next 'Cigar Pass' is run by someone who takes ownership and manages it more intelligently!
Unlike the last THREE.
N.B. Sorry Sean.. but pairing 'Berry' up (an untried 'Knewbee with no previous history of swaps) with TWO other members was INSANITY.
(Hands up... was anyone really that shocked by what happened next...?)
