Sounds fun. I'll gladly add some stuff and re-karma it if I'm chosen.

UnishotI done this type of "Box Pass" (as we called it) a number of times on a few cigar forums. The idea was to put a few cigars in, and take a few out that you haven't tried. (You take an equal amount out that you put in...) It was a lot of fun until a newer member just ran of with the box or, took all the expensive cigars out and put dog rockets back in.
I can only hope that this does not end in the same way.
The way we did it in the past, was to limit the number of participants and post the order of where the box was going. (In other words, we could "track" where the box was, and who had it, and when it was sent out to the next person on the list). Most members would post what they added, and what they took out. When the box got to the last person, (who was the person that started the whole pass)we would have a good idea on what was inside (cigars, cutters, lighters, etc) and then that was donated to the troops overseas.
I think a bit of thought should go into this before it gets sent out and things turn south. (Yes, I recognize that this membership is an extraordinarily stand-up group.....I'd just hate to see something bad happen.) Just a thought.
That being said, I would love to participate. I have several goodies I can thrown in.
Insert your favorite gun-related witticism here!

I tried this once before and it didn't really go as planned. The idea, if you win, is to take a few things that you want from the box, and then add a couple of your unwanted/unused things to it and re-Karma the box. If this is something you are not willing to deal with, then please do not enter. The fun is to keep this Karma going.
So, the two rules for this Karma are as follows...
1. Confirm you are going to re-Karma to keep this going. You must mention this in your post so I know you read this rule.
2. Have an email in your profile. Thanks and good luck!
Sure thing.

UnishotJust to be clear, I would certainly re-karma and would love a chance to do so. I love surprises!

I would love more organization, but wasn't sure how to approach it. The last thing I want to do is come across as a total asshole with a bunch of rules and regulations.
I'm all ears though. Maybe I should have the Karmanator pick the winner when it gets to page 5?
