The situation that arises toward the end of a night of clubbing, when the last of everyone's cigs are counted out & divided evenly amongst your buds (See Socialism.) until enough change can be gathered for a new pack.
Example: We were running low on smokes as were a few of our friends. I realized we were having a "cigaration" & spread the word for my buddies to pitch in.

When you come close to something but don't quite get there.
Just short of success
This phrase originated in the 1920's. Fair grounds would give cigars away as prizes. Prizes were more aimed at the adults then vs. children like they are now. The fair workers would shout out "close but no cigar".... The first written documentation of this word appeared in the 1930's and then became a common phrase.

You finish second in a race
A friend asks how you did
You tell them "I finished in second place, close but no cigar"
