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...
:-)

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.

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

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

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

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