Mold to Gold Give-away

[Irritech]

Okay fellow B'sOTL I have come up with a contest. I'm going to do my best to explain it and hope you all can understand what it is. The first thing you need to be guessing is cigar brand names ie: Partagas, AVO etc. They will all be NC brands. Here's the deal, I've picked four brands to select cigars from. Anyone that guesses a correct brand name gets an Anejo #77 (shark) sent directly to their door. Yes, a few small spots of mold were on them at one time, but hey they're free. I did wipe em down mind you. Plus, I've smoked some and as long as you smoke em soon, they're all good.

After all four brand names have been guessed, I will give you some cigar sizes. You will then use the brand names to match cigars with the sizes I give. Once you think you have a match, you will write that cigar name down. There will be seven sizes in all so obviously there will be more than one match per brand name. Once you think you have all seven cigar names, you will then use the 1st letter of each name to come up with seven letters. Then the seven letters must be unscrambled to spell a seven letter word. First person to correctly come up with the word gets a Don Carlos lancero shipped to their door. Hence the mold to gold give-away. I hope you guys have fun with this. Also you must bear with me as I do have a day job so I can only check this in early A.M. and evening. Good luck!! :tongueout

Jwintosh, congrats, you got the last-La Flor Dominicana.

PM me your address as well. Okay, I have to double check the sizes real quick and then I will post em. :assaultri

[jwintosh]

woohoo!! pm sent!

[Irritech]

Here are the sizes:

6 1/4" x 54

5" x 50

5" x 40-60

5 3/4" x 38

6 1/8" x 52

4 3/8" x 60

5 1/2" x 50

Remember, use only the 1st letter of each cigar name to get your seven letters. Then unscramble them to reveal a cigar name that to me was a classic. Good luck all!!

Hint #1 There is no hint yet. Wanna see if you sleuth's can get it w/out a hint first. Happy hunting!!! :pokemyeye

[Irritech]

Now I'm going to go try and land this damn hang glider. I'll check back soon! :glassesgr

[Headbanger]

I worked last night and missed the entire game. Well done, lots of people has some easy fun for free cigars is always a good thing. :thumbsup:

[Headbanger]

Perdomo?

[Headbanger]

Bolivar?

[tobby4]

very nice... i have not kept up with this.. so I will let yall duke it out for the sticks

[Headbanger]

Lancero?

Not sure if this time looking at sizes or brand that is a classic.
Thanks for the additional contest either way.

[orlenz]

Okay three have been guessed so far. Orlenz and Halon both guessed correctly. PM me your snailers please.




Woohoo!

Pm Sent, Thanks for the contest and the cigar :thumbsup:

[Irritech]

It ain't over orlenz, try and get the last one...it's a good en!:wink:

[Headbanger]

Looking at various size sticks goes, each manufacturer calls each size their own name, sometimes a unique name. I am sure you have a certain place or chart your looking for, but there is no set name for the sizes you have mentioned above. This is going to be very hard to find that exact site or reference for your sizes listed above.

Thanks for the additional contest all the same.

[Irritech]

Okay, I'll give a hint or two.

Hint #1 - There are seven cigar sizes. I have picked 2 cigars from 3 of the brands listed and 1 cigar from the 4th. This means that there will be no more than 2 cigars per brand name.

Hint #2 - None of the cigars I chose are named by their size. So, no cigars with the name pyramid, corona gorda or belicoso#2 for example were chosen. A cigar with the name mysterio or illusion would be okay.

I hope this helps some as I may have made this too hard. :ninja:

[Irritech]

Jeez, this must have been alot harder than I thought.

Hint #3 - I found all the cigars on one internet retailers site. The first name of the site is the same as the guy that broke his crown. Alright now, look up some of those sizes. I promise when you smoke that Don Carlos lancero, you'll be happy you used your noggin. :nodlaugh:

[orlenz]

Alcalde

[Irritech]

LOL, nope Alcalde isn't even close. Okay here's the last hint:

2 are La Flor Doms, 2 are Ashtons, 2 are AVOs and 1 is a Tatuaje. The one that is Tatuaje is 6 1/8" x 52 = Unicos. Now you have one of the seven letters and it's a U. Look at Jackschwartz.com and match the other sizes to cigars from the other 3 lines. GL I'll check back maybe later tonight or 1st thing in the A.M. If nobody's won by then, I'll pick a number for heavens sake

[Halon]

Woohoo! PM incoming!

[Halon]

Buscemi?
I got nothin.


TYLER

[Irritech]

Halon, you have all the letters correct except one. The incorrect letter is C. Thats a pretty funny guess though.:thumbsup:

[goin' fer smoke]

I guess my brain doesn't work right for these type of contests, I am clueless as to what we are trying to guess at this point.

[Greg]

Sublime!

[Halon]

Damn you, Fredneck! All along I was thinking that was it, but I couldn't find the damn L.


TYLER

[Greg]

It could be 'imburse' too.

[Halon]

Or subrime? I guess if you're asian.
But seriously, though, there is no L anywhere. The C comes from Chisel (made by La flor), but there's no cigars 6 1/4x54 with an L.

LA FLOR DOMINICANA LIGERO TORPEDO(Dominican Republic)

Litto is bringing back the ligero torpedo! This new cigar is the first La Flor Dominicana to sport a Nicaraguan wrapper. The filler and the binder are Dominican, grown right on Litto’s farm.

Ligero Torpedo 6 1/4 x 54

[jwintosh]

nice,, that was tough! spent way too much time on it last night.

Right on, I figured that one was excluded because it had 'torpedo' in it. Sweet contest!
