Very well, I challenge you to a battle of wits.

Eplaya posting and bong hits.. two great things that don't always go great together. Your first paragraph and the rest of your post are completely disjointed. Oh noes.. you requested time off.. were awarded a ticket.. and now you can't go.. and now this is the evil BORGs fault because there is only...

I was making two different points.

I see 2012 as being a record setting year for low income ticket requests. I also see it as being a record year for unqualified requests for low income tickets.

Lets consider that for a moment... Lets say you are one of countless Burners trying to make the event. Your boss says "Yeah, we might be able to give you the time off". So, you buy a ticket through the STEP program, and then, weeks before the event, work informs you that you can't take the time off....

Maybe this idea has already hit eplaya, but perhaps not. I don't have the time to sift through the thousands of posts on the topic of 2012 ticket sales, so if this idea has already been tossed around, I apologize. Of those 40,000+ tickets sold in the 3 day period of the lottery, it seems obvious tha...

This year will be my 11th Burn, and with the exception of the first year, I've brought an SLR camera Film in 2002, 10D in 2003, 20D in 2004-2008 and D5 Mark II in 2009-2010. First things first, I never once, not even for a few minutes, walked around with my camera out of my bag unless I was shooting...

This is going to be my 9th year in the dust, and I'm taking the plunge and building a hexayurt for the playa this year. Thanks to eplaya and the rest of the interwebsnets, I feel confident that I am well informed and ready to tackle the project. However, I have one question for any hexayurt owners.....

A portcullis? That is freaking awesome. I wanna party with you guys, and deny access to your camp from behind the portcullis. Do you have a pot of molten acid you can pour on the really annoying ones?

Next year it's all about the moat! Anybody know where I can get a good deal on a Lava Monster?

The sharpie idea is a good one. I'm surprised that didnt come to mind. I think at this point, I am very likely to handle drunkkards with a sharpie! I have the urge to be cruel, but perhaps writing "asshole" all over this guys body would not only teach him a less, but I would feel so much better! So,...

So that's why they call you Dark Gnome! We have to remember those things for next time.

Every year our camp seems to turn into a drunk magnet when some asshole wonders into our camp looking for a place to sleep off whatever they consumed way too much of. This year was no exception, however, this was to be the last time I help anybody out that is too drunk/stoned/high to help themselves...

My list incorporates stuff from Helousise's list, as well as a few other sources... This, like everything else, is a work in progress... TICKETS TICKETS TICKETS TICKETS!!!!!! They come in real handy out there! Don't forget your tickets! Building your home for the week. Big tent Inflatable Mattrress....
