Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

READ THIS CAREFULLY!

I'd like a newb that writes reviews and enjoys cigars for a little blind taste test fun.

You need to have around 100 posts, at least 1 or 2 trader feedbacks (a send and receive in the NST, for instance) and to have written some reviews already. I'd like it if you're fairly new to smoking and just trying new stuff.

You'd be obligated to write reviews and enjoy some cigars.. that's about it (painful, eh?).

Post here why you should be the one and link some of your reviews. The way you write your reasons will be considered too... :tu

From the other thread ;)

I am quite a n00b, but I do enjoy trying new smokes and I love sharing my experience with everybody. I don't do much research on the reviews I have done here, because I don't really care what other folks say about a certain cigar or brand, my review should be how I feel about the cigar.

I'm trying to add new reviews every couple days, and I think pictures really help show how a cigar burned, came apart, smoked, etc....

Perhaps by the time the next round starts I'll have the necessary post count to be considered.

From the other thread:

I'm not really a noob anymore, but I'm not as well versed as some of the members here... Great thread, I really enjoy reading it and I'd love to be considered.

I'm constantly reading cigar reviews and forums and trying new sticks. I've got a wish list longer than my wallet, and I'm on seasonal layoff from work until January...so you could say I've got the time! :)

I've never reviewed any "mystery" smokes that I can remember and would be interested to see how my palate is developing. My current favorite smokes are Trinidad Reyes, Padilla 1932, Padron Anni, and anything Don Pepin Garcia. I like long walks on the beach, disco dancing, and cramming ships into glass bottles!!! I'll be your Huckleberry!

Dan,

I have been smoking for little bit and am still trying to find out what I like. There are so many cigars out there that I haven't tried. I love cigars and have on average about 5 to 10 a week. I am still not convinced that CC's are the be all end all of cigars. Although I have had some good ones and one great one, most of them have been let downs.


I love to read reviews and have done one myself.

I loved the first DBall Newbie BTT and it was awesome. It was the only thread I subscribed to. When I am contemplating purchasing cigars, I always check the reviews here first. I value you guys' opinions.

I would love to get the chance to participate in this taste test. Thanks for considering me.

How about a FOG that doesn't? ;s

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

Wow.. there must be no newbs around here... :confused:

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

Well, we did set the bar really high. ;)

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

agreed... that thread is filled with super high quality reviews... and... it is a pretty big commitment (almost 3 months). :)

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

Post count is getting closer, and I started my n00b trade so I'm working on that as well ;)

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

Awesome! Don't go randomly post-whoring to boost it up, though... that 100 number is open to negotiation.

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

Post-whore.....me.......never !!!!

:D

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

Oh... and you need to be able to review a cigar a week... that's the other big thing. ;)

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

Only one?? :tu

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

That's the spirit... at least one. ;)

There are only two reviews I've done and they're both here on CA in the BTT PIF. Here are the links.

The only reason I can think of as to why I should be picked to do this is because I missed the last one and wished I could be a part of it. The reality of it is though is that it is YOU who obviously will, but more importantly, should decide decide who it will be.

I am not as nooby as some but have in the last few months started smoking on a daily basis in order to try everything I can and share some of what I learn with others. I am definitely a noob when it comes to CA drifting in the vast sea of well seasoned smokers who have made this place what it is.

I hope to take part in this and either way do thank you for your consideration.

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

Dan,
Thank you for doing round 2. I really enjoyed the reviews before and it really helps seeing the same cigar from 2 different point of views.
Can't wait until the reviews start coming in!

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

Sweet ! I'm really looking forward to this, and getting it done in a timely manner ;)

Re: Need a newb that writes reviews... (Part 2)
 

Thanks Dan! You have made my day! I can't wait. This is going to be a lot of fun! It's the old East Coast/West Coast perspective! :ss
