The smell of fry bread at a roadside stand at midnight as I was driving home after the burn.
And of course playa dust, any where, any time.

Re: Burning Blog official ticket update
Cryptofishest- I totally agree. What kind of mess would this be if the collective voice of eplaya had been the driving force behind the ticket distribution system. Admittedly, there have been a few reasonable ideas put forth here, but the majority have just been crazy. I for one am pretty satisfied ...

Re: Marian Goodell (Maid Marian) on the Ticket Situation
I won't refer to specific numbers. there are plenty of numbers floating around, some make sense and some were reinforced by Marion. Some are gibberish.

Re: Do the math: over 50% of tickets went to scalpers
I agree with kestralsf that there are enough reports regarding percentages for the large camps to see the trends of something like 30%. These are not just individuals reporting that they did/did not get tickets. These are eplayans reporting on larger samples that they have knowledge of(ie their own ...

Ticket scalpers are allready aware that BM sold out last year. Sold out events are what draw them out. With or without the lottery, scalpers will be active in this years ticket sales and unfortunately a lot of tickets will be sold for a lot more than face value. The only problem with a lottery syste...
