    Not sure who the Shizz I'm voting for yet either so guess we'll all have to smoke em if we got em until the results are in...

    Sorry for the delay guys, between work prepping for New Years Eve and Christmas Eve and Christmas with the Family it's been real hectic. I would have liked to get it out this week but pulling 15 hour days tomorrow and Saturday. Looking forward to seeing how this ends tho fo sho. Here are my Takes followed by my Puts and if all's good will get everything together...

    Takes

    Puts

    I found a couple of those Tat Brown Lanceros when I was organizing my Wineador and had forgot I had them. Got them at an event back in AZ before I moved here so I've had them a couple years and they had a year or so on them when I got em.
    Holy smokes Jim!!! Those takes look absolutely delicious and the puts are fantastic. All looks great to me. Thanks for Being a part of this and for helping wrap up the pass. Don't sweat it if you don't get to the PO until early next week, should have a short trip from you to me...
    lookin forward to getting it in, repacking, and tallying up the votes for The winner.

    Thanks to all Who've contributed To this. You guys are great. Will keep you all posted before I send back out to winner!!

    Sounds good and a supposed 15 hour day today turned into 18 hours and have to be back there in about 8 hours. Wanted to jump on real quick and make sure everything was good though. Was tough deciding on Takes haha. Lots of great stuff in there and looking forward to seeing who gets absolutely destroyed lmao.

    So sorry guys, haven't forgotten about this but work has just been kicking my ass. Was supposed to have Monday and yesterday off but got called in for both days 12 hours each day and then had a 16 hour day today. Have another 12 hour day Friday but going to see if I can get my Mom to pick it up and get out for me. It's nice getting hours especially when you're part time but hate letting things hang like this because of it.

    Jim, understandable being busy this time of year, esp in your line of work. Hope you can get it out soon, I'll be on the lookout for it next week.

    This went out today and so sorry again for the delay guys. I had to work again today but had my Mom send it out since I wanted to make sure it got on its way. Will post the DC when I get it from her. Actually have a few days off now to recoup a bit from the Holidays and work which is nice.

    thanks for the update, jim.


    Edit:

    looking over my spreadsheet now working on tallying up the final votes.

    pretty darn close between first, second, and third place so i am going to double check all the pics in this thread & PMs with votes/nominees again to make sure I counted everything correctly.

    don't want any "hanging chads"

    will post a more detailed update when this gets back to me (total votes, total nominees, etc.)....before sending it back out

    and LMK what you guys think --- but I'm leaning towards *not* posting the winner's name here ... instead will let it be a surprise when it lands. thoughts?

    What if you are the winner Randy? I like the idea of the winner finding out when it lands.

    Alright y'all just wanna let you know the pass made it back to me today. Only had a quick chance to peek inside and it was stuffed full!! You all rock!
    I'm going to snap a couple pics of the final sticks and get a count on them as well. Will get those posted up tomorrow along with the vote info.
    Planning to get this shipped back out before the weekend.

    yes i got the bag :-) :-) :-)
    you all are sneaky i'll give you that. lesson learned: when tony sleeveplz asks to be first in a pass he has an ulterior motive and was setting me up for an a$$ whoopin' lol. very nice surprise, special thank you to tony and all who added sticks to "my bag". look forward to trying them all ... they look fantastic and most are new to me. (will get a pic or 2 of this up later)



    but more importantly huge thanks to everyone who was involved with this and contributed to the pass in general. i would say this was a huge success and i'm super excited about how this turned out ...
    there are over 100 sticks in the pass that will be going to the winner.


    i looked through everything last night and snapped some pics (will get those up later) .... almost everything was in perfect shape aside from 3 uncelloed sticks that got beat up pretty bad --- i'm going to switch them out before sending this back out. a couple of the boveda packs were pretty hard and not all the bags had a pack .... so i re-bagged everything each getting a boveda pack and got everything sitting snugly inside a cooler right now to "stay fresh" until I can get them back out to the winner in the next couple days.

    vote info & pics coming later today .... stay tuned.

    151 -- total votes cast / total number of "puts"
    19 -- nominees receiving votes
    11 -- vote differential separating the top 5 nominees
    9 -- vote differential separating the other 14 nominees
    over 100 -- cigars going to winner

    and unfortunately these 3 didn't survive the trip.
    the wrappers are pretty heavily damaged and i don't think any of them would yield a good smoking experience. they have been removed and replaced. (don't worry they won't go to waste, i am going to donate them to "science")

    lastly, the bag for me that tony started and you guys all added too. thanks a ton but completely uncalled for!! they all look great & most are new to me. and another stogie stand too, sweet - i dig the look/pattern on this one.
    thanks all.

    i need to pick up some "packing materials" from the store before i send this back out. plan on getting there tomorrow and will try to ship tomorrow too. if not this will go out monday at the absolute latest. will post the DC when i have it.

    huge thanks again to everyone who participated and made this a big success. i think the "voting" was a hit and would consider doing this again with a future pass.


    and congrats (sorry lol) in advance to the winner .... best prepare your mailbox and hide in a bunker lmao.
    you'll all find out who the winner is sometime next week when this lands. bwahahahaha!!!!!

    Someone once referred to me as "Spoon" for always trying to stir the pot.... I was insulted and surprised since I never do that EVER. ;)

    So happy to see this make it back to you and be the huge success that it was. Was there a rule about being able to give the votes you receive to someone else??? If so, go ahead and pass mine on to Drewski :)

    No clue on exact weight but the large flat rate box was absolutely stuffed full, definitely had some bulk to it. Will remember to get the weight when I drop at PO
