  • Mystery Stick Game

     04-23-2009, 3:02 AM

    I got an idea from the Black Band Project. This game would work like PIF but you send someone 3 cigars, without bands, marked A, B and C. The recieving person smokes them and reviews them, trying to guess what they are. After all 3 are smoked and reviewed the sender posts what A, B and C were. That way we rely completley on our palate(which this is a good opportunity to develop) and no brand hype. This way a "highly rated" cigar can be called a bag of ass or a cheap stick an awesome smoke. Only kicker is the recieving person would have to be willing to smoke all 3 within a few days of reciept, humidified shipping would be appreciated. Whats everyone think? If i get a few people interested i'll start things off on Saturday? Good idea?

    I'm down. I dig the games on here quite a bit, and this one sounds like it would be alot of fun.

    I know I'm not on the good trader list yet but I think this would be a lot of fun.

    To some of us rookies, three is a hell of a lot; if I had to smoke three cigars in a single day, I'd probably burn my mouth out. Maybe make it a one on one comparison?
    Appreciate.

    Might want to stick a post it note, or flag or something on each stick so that if you send three similar looking sticks, you can tell them apart for review purposes. Might also want to limit Nubs from this pass, they are pretty identifiable. Aside from that, I'm giving some thought into joining this. Put me down in the maybe column.

    I've heard the first step is admitting that you have a problem. Thankfully, I don't have a problem. I'll just smoke more.

    hmm, well a lot of cigars I have people have already smoked. And I don't think too many of us care what a premium is as far as talking crap about it. I'd be down though.

    I thought i covered everything pretty clearly in the first post. This games works just like Pay It Forward, except you send 3 cigars, without bands. The recieving person gets the cigars then asks for a mooch. Once he has a mooch, he sends 3 unbanded cigars. The cigars a labeled A, B and C. You smoke them, review them here on this thread and try to guess what they are or where they came. After that, the person who sent them to you reveals what they are. Pretty easy.
    Edit: Bass, your sticks are on the move, i'll PM your DC# when i get it :)
