Question Contest or a bomb??

I have a few sticks that I don't really care to much for in the bottom of my humi. Its probly around 5 or so, one retails for about $15/17. Then I have an extra closed end new cutter that I may part with. Also an unused Humi I got from an intro sampler. I have 2 desktops and recently got a Vinotemp I'm working on to make right.

Should I:
1. Start a contest? If so, any good suggestions. Im looking for something interesting and not lame.
2. Bomb someone? If so, any good BOTL/SOTL that you think would be an excellent canidate (PM me). And please don't say "ME" as a response, I would like to give to a worthy noob or a "semi-noob". I've never participated in any aspect of a Bomb.
3. PIF?

Thanks ahead for any great suggestions~

Re: Contest or a bomb??

Great gesture! I personally pick the PIF option which actually would be a bomb. Afterall, PIF is a mantra that BOTL live by.

I would just look at some of the newer members posts and decide who I thought could use it the most and send it to them with no warning whatsoever, not even a DC #. The best way to get cigars are when they are a surprise and are sent out of heartfelt generosity.

These questions probably belong in the "Too stupid to ask" category but since you're discussing it here I'll ask. What is a PIF and what is a DC#?

PIF = Pay It Forward: This is probably the greatest aspect of being a BOTL (Brother of the Leaf) It can be done through either helping out a brother in need of something with no expectations of anything in return or it can be as simple as passing on knowledge.

DC# = Delivery confirmation Number: When shipping cigars and other stuff it is standard procedure to post a DC# so that the package may be tracked. This is used by USPS and tracking can be done on their site.

Re: Contest or a bomb??

There really is no right or wrong answer. Just do what you feel.
