CanuckSARTech Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 Okay, I've decided. For the cigar raffle, I'll bring an RyJ Coronita en Cedro for the "cheap & cheerful", and then I'll bring a really nice and oily Cuaba Piramides EL for the premium basket.
CanuckSARTech Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 I thought of this too Art, but wanting to keep costs down, i did not persue with this idea...maybe something to consider for the 2013 winter herf Or the potential Nov. 2012 Las Vegas herf!
tempbond Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 T-SHIRT INFORMATION IF YOU GUYS WANT TO PRINT SOME So here's the t-shirt info I promised in the shoutbox earlier this evening. This is a first draft of the design, I'll have to do a higher resolution image for the actual printing : These are the prices I found for 2 local companies that have a very fast turnover : Let me know what you guys think...
maverickdrinker Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 I'm cool with it. Would like the graphic on the back of a large sized black t shirt if possible. Black is slimming...
tempbond Posted January 7, 2012 Posted January 7, 2012 My contribution to the third raffle (miscellaneous items) : - Cigorange cigar beads 1/2 pound X4 - something else, don't know what yet
CanuckSARTech Posted January 8, 2012 Posted January 8, 2012 Okay, firstly, the T-shirts. Awesome. I too would agree on a black one (but a brown or dark grey t-shirt would be awesome too). Any price, I'm game for an XL. My only suggestion though would be to put "Montreal" in there, as in just before or just after the 2012. Secondly, Temp's post. Temp, I'm wondering - those James Suckling DVD's that you state and show, are those an authorized burn??? I ask this, as in the image of the disc it shows it as a "Verbatim DVD-R" disc, so I'm presuming it's not factory manufactured (my awesome powers of deduction, I know). My question then is, is however you bought the digital movie file from Suckling's webpage (hoping that it was properly bought for in the first place), does that even allow for burning multiple copies of it? I get that you're not selling 3 DVD's of this movie for profit, but it's still a burn of 3 copies of it. I would feel horrible doing that, rather than actually supporting the making of that and actually buying/winning a legit copy of it, not a pirated version. Hey, and I get how this may seem hugely hypocritical, as I have a plethora of songs on my computer and whatnot from the Napster-era days and such. But for such a smaller production, from a BOTL, for such a passion of ours, I'd rather properly and financially support the project by having it be a legit copy.

I did BUY a digital download of the movie 100% legit, but the copies are just that, copies. For my own use, I don't see the problem, but to give away, that's not ok. I'll remove them from my post and I'll find something else for the raffle. Thank you for the heads up !
tempbond Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 Okay, firstly, the T-shirts. Awesome. I too would agree on a black one (but a brown or dark grey t-shirt would be awesome too). Any price, I'm game for an XL. My only suggestion though would be to put "Montreal" in there, as in just before or just after the 2012. Thank you for liking the shirts ! Adding Montreal is a good idea. The only thing is that only 2 people including yourself have shown interest, so for now, this is a no go. So if you guys want t-shirts, please say so VERY soon, like Tuesday at the latest, because I have to make the design and then have the shirts made. The only thing that's a bit touchy is having black and white shirts : I would have to make 2 designs because the lettering won't show up on a black shirt. Since the two people who showed interest want black shirts and me wanting to do only one desing, I'll only order black shirts to make everything easier. Please give me the size of the shirt you would like, I will charge you only what I get charged. Please e-mail me your order (address is my FOH name at hotmail dot com) and I will update the list here. I will do a design only if 20 or more people want shirts.

tempbond Posted January 9, 2012 Posted January 9, 2012 My contributions to the cigar raffles : cheap and cheerful : Bolivar Coronas junior premium : RyJ Churchill from 2001
tempbond Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 Sorry guys, looks like the t-shirt thing won't happen, we're just 9 (at best) who want one. Maybe for the next herf, that way we'll have more time to plan and get orders.
riazp Posted January 10, 2012 Author Posted January 10, 2012 Sorry guys, looks like the t-shirt thing won't happen, we're just 9 (at best) who want one. Maybe for the next herf, that way we'll have more time to plan and get orders. agreed to short notice. no worries there will be other souvernirs...can you say pink eye?
Lotusguy Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 I'll plan some for Vegas - will need help with the design, though since an artist I am most definitely not...
kiwiman911 Posted January 14, 2012 Posted January 14, 2012 sorry about the shirts they would have been very cool to have maybe next time here are my pics for the raffles cheap and chearfull Bolivar Royale Corona and I don't know if a La Gloria Deliciosos RE cuba from 09 would be good
canadianbeaver Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 Big news you Montreal herfers... I am joining you!!! I am visiting my daughter during the day and meeting you for dinner and smokes at night! I have a beautiful new bottle of scotch... I donated a gift box of Rocketfuelcoffee for the draw and I have amazing cigars to smoke. Waiting to send in my $$ for dinner (as soon as I have the details)... See you soon!!!
maverickdrinker Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 2 additional BOTL from Rochester might be able to make the trek as well.
