    @peter4jc Totally...

    My thoughts about who wants to be entered is I would post a photo and/or graphic of the prize in the thread per month. In order to be considered, any Forum member would simply have to comment by typing "ENTER" (or something to that effect), that way only legitimately interested folks are being considered. 

    I will preface by saying there probably will be times we will do a "Brand Takeover" for the contest, and so most brands generally want to see enthusiasm, so people who want to be considered for the giveaway will have to participate in that month's thread by posting a photo of themselves smoking a cigar from said brand.

    I'll be with Klaas Kelner most of next Thursday morning, so I'll see what I might be able to conjure up. Worst case scenario I put Klaas on blast when we do our on-camera interview and see if he buckles under pressure?  LOL  >:)

    Klaas is a nice guy, he might do it.

    @Eulogy I've not met him before, at least not that I can recall. I've met his Dad a million times.

    He had a great story about taking a photo of the travler. Great picture and an overblown reaction. Everyone I met at Davidoff was fantastic though.

    Like the idea of having to post to enter.

    As for brands,

    Davidoff and really any other ones... EXCEPT Patel.  :D

    Dunbarton. Dunbarton. Dunbarton. Did I mention Dunbarton. Tats, Crowned heads, Espinosa, Matilde, Southern Draw, Romacraft, Caldwell, Protocol, Viaje. Just some ideas. I know you guys like to push Patel and Ghurka but they aren't well received here and stuff like that would probably lead to a dull month. Also, start to carry Black Label Trading and Blk Wks Studio. 

    This is certainly a good start.

    Okay, guys... Just got out of my meeting with Legal and we're good to go for a monthly Forum-only contest!  :) In a nutshell, these will be separate giveaways from what you see on CCOM's Social Media, and you're not going to have to repost anything, tag people, etc., which I know can get annoying. I will start a topic within "Discussions" here which I'll keep pinned to the top that will swap out for each month; although I can't promise the giveaways will always be huge, I do plan on making sure once per quarter to give away a big prize pack so things don't go stale.

    Question: How would everyone feel if once in awhile I get a manufacturer to provide a Forum-only bulk 5-pack, where (for example), you guys can get it for only $5 when it would normally retail for $50+?  I would make a private page on CIGAR.com and provide a link to everyone here, that way non-Forum members can't piggyback off the promo.
    Let me also suggest the entrants be on the good Traders list and a post minimum such as 50 or 100, in order to prevent 1 post entries just for contest with fake accounts.
    @Yakster may have a list for good traders that could be updated every month.  
    Love the promo idea for the bulk 5 pack, that is awesome.
    I was born a fool, and just got bigger!

    I didn't do my first trade here for a few years. I used to joke that I wasn't on the good trader list.
    So that might need to be considered.

    I  was 3 months doing my first trade, but we have a lot of profiles that are only active the day they are activated.  Just a thought, but most likely I am over thinking it.

    Love everything about it. +1 on the adding Black Label TC and BL Works. AND none of this "continental U.S. only" BS😆
    Now this is not the end of the cigar. It is not even the beginning of the end of the cigar. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning of the cigar.

    Cigars were made to be smoked, whiskey was made to be drank and women were made to be loved. The only thing I try to age is myself.
