The big game is set, now the betting begins! If enough geeks are interested, I am willing to run the SB Squares Contest again this year. How many of y'all would be willing to play? I'd have to end this by Jan 30th, as I am heading to Vegas and Laughlin for SB weekend...so, who's in?

I'm thinking 10 geeks, ten cigars per geek, gets ya 10 squares. First, second and third quarter winners get 20 cigars, and final score gets 40.

I'm open to suggestions, but this makes it easy to set up, fill up and go... :biggrin:

Brian, thanks for firing this up again
I would would be interested but would prefer to go 5 cigars / 5 squares.  Of course this depends on the number of willing participants
Would also like to see some rules on the level of cigar, much like a pass.

We can do the five for five, no problem, as long as we have enough participation. If so, we can do a five for five, with a ten for ten max. There will definitely be a price range to go by, similar to last year. I am also thinking about adding to the mix a guess the winner and score, and it takes one premium cigar to join that. Winner takes all sticks in that one. Hoping we get some geeks joining tonight so this can be set up quickly. Thanks!

If it's not a super premium level pool I'm game, these have tended to be out of my league in the past.

Yeah, I'm not looking to play for super premiums either.  Diesel, Ave Maria, Oliva, along those lines is what I'm thinking.

got 50-55 of the squares potentially filled based on this thread. I will start an official thread to make this easy to follow...this one could get out of hand fast!
