Show Me Your Ash - 2014 Contest

[Light this!]

Gentlemen, I have been inspired to have a contest for the "Longest Ash" after smoking this LFDC stogie this morning. I know that everyone toys with their ash once in a while. :whistling: (some more than others) So here it is.
 

 
 
The Rules:
 
1. Must be a picture taken specifically for this contest...NO PICTURES FROM THE INTERNET!
 
2. As I am sure this has been done previous times before, the cigar submitted as an entry must be smoked by you after my posting today.
 
3. You must be an active member of this board in good standing, no asshats with a join date after before May 1, 2014 with a minimum of 25 posts.
 
4. You must submit a picture of your cigar and ash still on. Rulers are encouraged to be pictured for a side-by-side comparison.
 
5. This is a "Longest Ash" contest so if you smoke a small cigar to the band but it only measures 3 inches you may not win to a longer cigar / ash.
 
6. One entry per person.
 
7. Contest ends Sunday August 10th at 5:00 pm Eastern Time.
 
8.  If it’s too close for me to call, I will ask Rod to be the final judge.
 
 
Now to the PRIZE:
 
1 Partagas Gran Reserva along with a couple of nice hitchikers.
 
 
Now lets see your ASH!
 
 
ETA: To correct that it should've of read join date before May 1 not after.

Nice contest, I think you'll get plenty of participation. Now to think about a worthy stick!

 

[CMontoya79]

I think I may have a good one for this.

Sorry guys I screwed up the wording and have corrected it. Edited initial post to say a join date before May 1st 2014 not after. This is what I meant to write all along.  ??? 

 

[Tall Paul]

Sweet Kris thank you for the contest. Outstanding prize!

 

[bfreebern]

Great ash.

 

[jfields]

Leave it to Freebern to like another guys ash!

 

[Brickhouse]

Attempted an entry last night.....failure.  I got a pic just before it fell, but I don't think it would compete.  I will try again.

Wow, I would've of thought that I'd see some ash by now. Ok, I get it you gentlemen need some motivation huh? Here is a pic of the prize including the hitchhiker bodyguards that will be included:  An La Escepcion Italian RE and a ERDM Infantes Cuba RE. Not to shabby huh? 
 
 
Now let's see someone's ASH!

Thanks for doing this Kris, I attempted it last night but my ash fell before I got to take a picture. I will keep trying!

 

[2K6TBSS]

I will get started on this next time I have a smoke, probably going to be Friday before I can have a chance to sit and try this.

 

[CigSid]

I tried twice, and both times my ash fell as I was taking the picture :laugh:

Damn rooks! The trick is to keep taking pictures as you go.  :laugh:

 

[Brickhouse]

I'd post mine, but only one entry, so I want to try for better.

That is exactly what I was thinking... What a dick for only allowing one entry :laugh:

Yeah, I have to cut down - NOT! You just have to smoke more Paul.
 
 
I could see it now a bunch of entries being posted on Sunday at the 11th hour. I think no one wants to be the first one to post because they think that they have a small one.  :0
 
 
Ok, I'll try to get this going and the first person to post some ASH will get a CC 3'er! :thumbs:
