Rules

PLEASE READ & FOLLOW THESE VERY SIMPLE RULES TO PLAY...

In a PIF thread, somebody asks, "Who wants some cigars?", and must include their e-mail. The first person to respond [on this thread] that they want some cigars, will receive some cigars from the person offering.

The "suggested minimum" PIF package is FIVE PREMIUM smokes.

PLEASE NO BUNDLE SMOKES, NO DOG ROCKETS, NO REBANDED STICKS, NO JUNK... PLEASE!!! You risk getting flamed on the thread, which is rather unpleasant.

You ARE not encouraged to send more, but please NEVER fewer than five sticks. Going overboard is encouraged!

If you don?t have at least a FIVER of PREMIUM smokes, PLEASE BUY SOME, then play!!!!

It is then their turn to ask if anyone (one and only one please) wants some cigars within an [Approx] 24-hour time frame. If you are able to do so earlier, please do so as it helps the thread move smoother. It is usually prudent to ask once contact has been made by both parties. It is then their job to send some cigars to the first person that responds.

Winners will be limited to one win in [approx] two weeks. The key is to be fair, make new friends, and have a little fun...

To eliminate any confusion please remember to post an appropriate "I DO" and send your snailer via the posted E-mail address.

If you have any questions, or issues, feel free to email me at the address below.

I think it would be great fun to revive GSS's idea now that we've got a large and ever-increasing membership.
What does everyone think?
Further tweaks I'd like to see:

1. Only send three sticks to get things rolling
2. US BOTLs who struggle to get Cubans can send NCs but should send Cubans if possible
3. All non-US players should send Cubans

Any other ideas for tweaking before starting?


I've created a poll to see who's interested

[Mr Omneo]

as I don't have a huge stock to draw from three sticks sounds better and would probably encourage more participants. rather than providing email addresses in the forum and thereby attracting bot spiders, what about we PM instead? I'm assuming everyone taking part will have posted at least 15 times?

not saying how wonderfull I am or anything but we did a cigar pass the other month which worked perfectly and I think its a bit easier than this we could just do that again? if i recall D4s were banned, in current climes the JL2 should now be the banned stick I think!

[Stevieboy]

Mr O & Panto - good ideas. I've incorporated them into the updated rules

[Deano]

Great stuff guys, we've been meaning to do this for a while, but about time we did a decent pass.

[daverave999]

The Pants-O-Pass went great I recall. It did seem simpler?

[Pantomimehorse]

indeed Dave,

thinking about it really there should be some kind of medal in the offing for the creator of said pass should there not ?

[daverave999]

You can have all of mine.

[Stevieboy]

Eight people have expressed an interest in PIF but most of the posts are intimating a preference for a box pass!?!? What's it to be guys

[Pantomimehorse]

well my vote is to swap either 1 or 2 sticks by being given a random forum memebers name like last time

We could do both Panto.....a PIF scheme and a box-pass scheme. Start a separate thread if you want to organise a pass muchacho...I'll leave it to you to organise..well volunteered LOL

[Mr Omneo]

I've got some empty boxes I'm happy to pass on I'm up for a stick or two but unfortunately I don't have any boxes

But if there become 2 threads I may join in the box pass once I've built up a supply.
