    Libations, hmmm, I like that.  Everyone knows that the difference between a drunk and an alcoholic is that alcoholics have meetings.  I don't want to be branded as either, so,

    I must be a "Libationist".

    Perfect.

    @Amos_Umwhat, are you a civil libatarian?  :D

    Well, I'm a happy drunk, so I suppose that's the natural progression.

    A couple months back, my carpenter was putting in some new windows for me, his asst. comes around the back of my truck, then asks  "What's so special about Librarians?"

    He'd seen the bumper sticker "Enough is enough, vote Libertarian" on the back.

    Took me a minute, too. ;)

    So as not the threadjack:

    Really nice website, guys, I need to remember to check that out more thoroughly.

    Interested in the scotch write-ups too, but the links don't seem to work.  Should they? Or is there nothing there yet?

    @Gray4lines  there is only one up so far.  We have been heavy into the cigars, and will soon be putting the efforts more towards scotch.  if there is anything specific you want to see please let me know

    nice write up. 
    i got a protocol robusto in the humi that i've been meaning to light up. 
    i like the way you layout the reviews with short & simple descriptions for each third.....

    and the bar graphs at the bottom are interesting but I don't really understand what they mean .... since there's different descriptive words for each reviewer. 

    and i'm using firefox (v 49.0.1) for windows and there's something about the UI / layout that seems "off" to me.... i think it's something to do with symmetry/ the rule of thirds.

    This is great @Trident! I'm hoping to learn how to develop my palate, so this will be another wonderful way to look back a what folks with experience have to say about specific sticks and compare and expand on what I find! 
  • TridentTrident Posts: 2,563 ✭✭✭✭
    @TaraLee Awesome Idea.  Anything specific you would like to see reviewed?

    Hey @Trident ; nice write up (as always) and the site improvements are great! 

    It looks a lot better now, the page seems more organized, and it's much easier to read. Very nice!
     
    I'll spend some more time looking around the site later today and shoot you a PM if I see anything else.

    @Trident - the site looks great.  Is the header shrinking as you scroll new?  It seems easier to read.

    It's cool that I can read more about some of the cigars I see on this thread.  Thanks for sharing this.

    Terrific reviews @Trident I really like the layout, it makes it easy to see what is similar across the board for most peoples palates as well as pick out unique flavors that certain palates pick up that I know are similar to mine. The pictures are very good as well and its nice not to read and huge write up but rather a condensed version where it hits the main points. Keep up the good work!
