Upcoming contest
"We" (the CW Illuminati) are discussing a new contest based on what I am planning to do for November. Barring sickness and "prior commitments" (think turkey) I plan to smoke/review a Lancero (or perhaps a long panatella) a day (reviews pending if I have already reviewed it; I might top the review) during the month of November.
The idea will be to smoke and review 7 cigars of a vitola to be named later in a month. Since there are officially 24 shapes on the official vitola chart, this could run two years. Realistically, some of those shapes are hard to come by and some run into others, so it would be, basically, on a run until interest wanes contest. Your review will be your entry. And yes, we expect a picture or two as provenance that you actually smoked the cigar. The reviews will then be judged by the editorial team. I'm going to say that repeat winners will be discouraged, depending on the number and quality of entries. The prize would likely be a fiver of premiums from the 2016/2017 IPCPR stash. And no, I will not be getting a prize for my November Lancero a day debacle. However, any and all are free to participate. Just a heads-up; since December might be a bit cold for us outside smokers, the December vitola will likely be Corona/Petite Corona, so start gathering your cigars!

So, by the look of things, no one is joining in on #LanceroNovember...give it a shot, it's good practice.

Okay, I need a little clarity. Should I start one thread for all of my monthly reviews? That is, November reviews, December reviews, etc. Or a separate thread for each review? Should I post my reviews in the Review Forum or here in the Cigar Talk Forum?

Post each review in the review forum. See if you can knock me to page 2.
