I was a reviewer for 3 issues back in 1999 - Summer, Fall, and Winter.
I did the summer and was asked to come back as a featured reviewer (w/my pic and brief bio).
Back then, you got 3-4 cigar in each baggie and the baggies were labeled "torpedo #5, robusto #52, etc... In other words, blind reviews. You didn't know what you were smoking and were given a format to follow, I still use the format when reviewing. If you want to see what it was like for me, and still used today - I gave out some cigars to 3 guys and had them use that format to review them. The thread is

Have fun! It is a great experience and opened my eyes quite a bit about what is a good smoke and because of the surprises when I found out what I had smoked, I learned not to come into things with a preconceived notion. Some cigars I never would have tried were really good - some brands that I thought would be stellar, turned out to be busts.
Peace of the Lord be with you.
