I was wondering what that absurdly large red number was up top there when I logged in this morning! Thought it was the national debt at first.
What did this have to do with me? Ahhh. Yes, sir! I will totally buy you a drink, too!! Lol

@Pipke We'll just continue to cancel each other out. I can play this game as long as you can.

EMP died in the wee hours, gents. @Bbailey324 administered the killing blow. Just as well, I'm not a mo(u)rning person...
This is true. @niblicck and @Manawydan and @geoffs get to re-cast. Curious onlookers (@Val) may notice that their up votes won’t count in the soon-to-arrive update until the votes are fully cast.
ODF has one hit point and I can't resist...

With that, we lost 3 blends over the past day. First there was Dunhill/Peterson's Early Morning Pipe. JimInks once called this blend's aftertaste "pleasant, short lived," and that directly describes its presence in this game. Then, there was Eight State Burley by C&D. JimInks describes its aftertaste as "pleasant, moderately lingering." Once again... fuggin' nailed it.
Then there was Old Dark Fired. JimInks said that this blend's "harmonious complexity... gives you plenty enough as it is." I don't know what he meant by that, but it sounds good so we'll roll with it.
Anywho, Winchester has re-taken the lead, with 558 not too far behind. May the mildly moistest win.

Call me peculiar, but I like my aftertastes to be unpleasant AND long-lived. I find it keeps human interaction to a minimum, and what interaction does occur is usually mildly moist. Wait, that came out wrong...
