So I'm going to stick with the original plan and donate the PS new prototype to the runner up, which is Spikey! She definitely deserves it, and she was a great contestant in this "pageant". Also, she's always supported Steve and I, and we appreciate her for that. So yay, Spikey! We'll get it out to you when we get our first batch in!
That is so sweet!!!! I am REALLY excited! Although I am always scared of the "kinks" not being worked out with new products... I love ALL puresmoker products.. so we can't go wrong here! You guys have been great and when you are ready to turn PureSmoker into a chain store.. I want the first NY franchise!!!
As a contributing supplier, I can say that we donated to add to the fun. It wasn't a business move. (Not to say that it isn't good to get our name out there, that's always a plus, and much appreciated!) I'm okay with however those running the show may choose to distribute our donation. I'll pass on the rusty car.
I firmly believe that the hosts were absolutely not trying to slight anyone. Some may not have received what they wanted, but is that really what this was about? Does calling the people out who did the work to make it happen accomplish anything other than to turn a good thing into something ugly or to be hurtful to the hosts? Sometimes it is the graceful thing to do to simply say thanks and maybe say to someone at your home "Poo, I was really hoping for that [insert prize here]!" I hate that the ones who provided the fun are being hurt. Between the two of them, they were actively on this thread at almost all times during the pageant! I don't blame Wiz for not wanting to do it again, and I'm sickened to think how Rick will feel when he checks in amidst his emergency.
I'm sorry for the novel. But I thought maybe people hadn't stopped to think that they may be being hurtful to someone who really hadn't intended them any misdeed. I will go back to into lighthearted mode now, no more "ranting" for me!
I don't blame Wiz for not wanting to do it again either... but as it has been said.. this was the FIRST pageant and there were bound to be little problems.. these issues will be kept in mind and I hope and pray Wiz and Rick will run it again... their participation is part of what made it such a GREAT and friendly pageant!
I propose that ALL the supplies pull their prizes from the contest to teach those a lesson in gratefulness.
Now THAT is an idea

OR we can let Wiz hold them all and use them for the 2010 pageant.
Can I vote for Miss jaaxx again? She really is awesome
I wish I could have voted for Miss Jaaxx AND Malice!
Or give them all to Rick and The Wiz
Could do that too!
well i don't think you can guarantee
that
Tauk cannot guarantee no fighting... these are WOMEN we are talking about! There will always be arguing lol
For those ladies who competed in the TRUE spirit of the contest I thank you , for those contestants and the members stirring the pot , you make me wanna throw up....
Thanks Wiz , Rick, Suppliers and every person who voted or followed this great community event ...
Yup,, what Trumpy said!
8th place on the original list was: SOLARFLARE KIT
8th place on the new list: 801 manual switch kit, DVP9kit.
Ritalee's votes brought her in at 4th:
Original 4th place: M401 from David yang
New 4th place: Solarflare kit.
So if you don't care what you get - switch with Rita!
The manual switch 801 was a combined prize I think to cover the regular prize AND the 20-30 age range... that is why it was so much better.
Wildsky... For the record, my FREE prizes were changed completely. I sort of liked the original 401 and the ecigar... but I have learned to like the Titan and the DVP9 just as much.
If someone needs something I got, they can PM me their addy and I will ship it to them. Not my house or car though! LOL
Titan is quite similar to the 401 in a lot of ways. sensitive switch, mega vapor... just bigger carts and bigger device. If you want a cigar... you can have mine. I washed out the one I have and I think it is working again.
ok.. so not the house.. not the car...i have an idea!!!
hmm... ok... maybe not.. got a dirty little idea but decided i'd slideon that
im kidding... we (the group) still up for the idea of mardis gras and fantasy fest??
I hate drunk people but love vampires and boobs... so I could prob do either... but will be in the air about this.
Wow... Wiz can get peolpe REALLY talkin.
Even after all the apologies... one must remember....
.... You just can't unring a bell.
Here's to a peaceful and content ending for all. \_/\_/
(oh, that's two glasses toasting and not two square boobs!)
I was hoping they were boobs
Congrads Spikey!
This is the only time I will refer to you as Spikey. The rest of the time I go back to old school. Your cuz is not 4 days without an analog. We will see what happens tonight when I go out for drinks. But I wanted to Thank you so much. This might be what I finally needed to get me to quit and I have you to Thank.
Love You,
Donna aka Moody2
