[font=Times New Roman"]To join in and help christen Rod’s new ‘Contest Forum’, a few CP members have gotten together to sponsor a new game to test a few brave souls within CP’s membership. While some of these contests will challenge your minds by employing your detective skills, eating something dumb, testing your memory, guessing the date of a marriage :laugh:[/font][font=Times New Roman"] [/font][font=Times New Roman"]or the utilization of your Google-Foo abilities, this contest will be pretty straight forward and simple.[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]We want to see a picture of you smoking a cigar in an uncompromising position, a smoking sensitive area, or some weird sort of place that normally doesn’t allow cigar smoking and would totally aggravate an Anti-Smoking zealot. [/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]Our main goal here is to have fun while still retaining the pride & integrity that CP has always stood for and requires of its members each and every day, so try to keep that in mind when deciding where to take these pictures. Attempt to emulate the shining examples of benevolence within our society that we hold so dear to us [/font][font=Times New Roman"]along[/font][font=Times New Roman"] with the virtues and strong character that we require every day as a self moderated forum. [/font][font=Times New Roman"]As an example, [/font][font=Times New Roman"]try to use two of our most outstanding Prime Time icons in America today as an example of what we are looking for in this contest…the beloved & highly respected Jerry Springer and the brilliant producers of the hit TV show, “Cheaters”. Capish?[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]See?....very simple.[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]The Judges for this contest, after considerable deliberation, will convene [/font][font=Times New Roman"]one week from today[/font][font=Times New Roman"] (8/12/2012) in my kitchen to announce the winner. This esteemed panel will carefully take each entry into consideration and grade them in these three categories…[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]1) Creativity[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]2) Awkward Factor[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]3) How funny/dumb you look doing what you’re doing[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]Now listen B/SOTL, we don’t want you being yelled at by your wives, husbands, Rod, girlfriends, boyfriends, Rod, or significant others (or even Rod for that matter!) by breaking any laws or hurting any children or defenseless animals with first, second, third, or fourth hand smoke…but, should a difficult situation arise during this photo shoot, please take that additional photo to earn bonus points! One thing, NO VIDEOS...this isn't Jackass: the Movie![/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]RULES:[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]1) We are invoking the ‘No Asshat Rule’…you all know who you are![/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]2) Must be a member for at least a month and have 20 posts minimum as of next Sunday[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]3) A large set of stones would come in handy…this contest is not for the weak of heart.[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]4) One entry per day[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]5) Must be a picture taken specifically for this contest...NO PICTURES FROM THE INTERNET![/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]The panel of Judges will consist of; BlindedByScience, Uptown Isy, YankeeFan555, and myself. There may be a fifth mystery Judge…but that is yet to be determined.[/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]Good luck to all that enter![/font]
[font=Times New Roman"]Oh, I almost forgot to mention the prize. To the winner of this travesty will go [/font][font=Times New Roman"]15[/font][font=Times New Roman"] Premium cigars out of the personal stash of Tom, Isy, and myself.[/font]
