Oh, that's a brilliant name - congrats!

+100 to what Gaminwench said. It's not that the RV companies are misstating their capacities, it's that "normal usage" of an rental RV's involve short trips to campgrounds. 6 people can fit, but only if they're going for an extended period and bringing lots of additional gear (as one would bring for...

I'm giving this a nudge over to the Q&A board, since that's a better fit for general event-related questions. The other people who've replied have said it pretty well. It sounds like your friend is a little doomed. He's either trapped in a terrible relationship and he and his buddies need to plan an...

Welcome aboard! The site has bunches of info that may prove helpful to your planning and preparation, feel free to browse the various categories. You may want to check out the Meet & Greet on Wednesday evening, it's a great opportunity to try and meet fellow ePlayans and put some faces to the names ...

I'm moving this over to Bikes & Transportation, since that's a better fit. Every once in a while, you run across a sensational headline that's actually perfectly appropriate for the post or article. THIS IS ONE OF THOSE TIMES! Thanks for posting, Token! From the Transportation Edition of the Jack Ra...

I'm giving this a nudge to the recommendations board, since that's a better fit for threads seeking recommendations on commercial products.

Relax, Ratty. When a user (including me) writes a reply based solely on the original post in a thread there's always a chance that info may be repeated. Oddly enough, that doesn't make it any less true. When the borders were less fuzzy, time would be wasted with boundary debates. Since the placement...

Just catching this and giving it a nudge to recommendations, since it's a thread seeking recommendations on a commercial product.

You are incorrect in your assumption. The amount of spaced for placed camps (theme camps, staff camps, etc) is approximately the same as it has been in previous years. What is different this year is how the boundaries have been drawn. It's actually mentioned on the BRC map page, if you care to read ...

Time to step back and take a few deep breaths. If you do not care for what a camp is planning, then don't join or visit that camp. It is not okay to attack the camp or its campmates. All camps (both placed and unplaced) are welcome to post on ePlaya. If you feel a camp is posting something that is i...

Sorry to hear that things took a different turn, but looks like a fairly solid plan. If/when you come up with a name for your camp, then you should also send one of your group over to playa info once you've got settled, you can enter your info there and friends can look you up.

I'm giving this a nudge over to the Q&A board, since that's a better fit for discussions related to mapping and other utilities. No, Burning Man does not publish a map of where all the camps are at. They do make a map available at playa info, and the various smartphone apps (timetoburn and iburn spr...

I'm sorry to hear of your experience, bdman... please file a police report on each of these cases! After you have done so, forward a copy of the case # as well as the particulars to fraud@burning man.org. As always, all users should read the read me post at the top of our ticket boards, and then rea...

If you're familiar with a site called Facebook, you may also care to look up an app there called Burnermap . It is a totally free thing that mines no data, made by burners for burners. You enter your info there, and then it shows you the camp info for the friends you are connected with on Facebook. ...

We are getting to the final crunch! Having just finished my last work weekend and into the home stretch on my cammp and personal stuff before loading, my time on the site is limited. The other moderators on the team (Eric, Savannah, Sham, AntiM, Elderberry and mdmf007) are here but also getting thei...

DrCook.... High percentage, you say? East coast, you say? How exactly are you able to say? Are you involved in BxB booking or conducting surveys on the bus? Because anything less than actual data is just some random person making really wild guesses

Moving this to recommendations after realizing this is a thread seeking recommendations for doormats? Really, almost any commercially available doormats is going to have finished edges, and subsequently be relatively non-MOOPtastic. You can further hedge your bets by going over any doormat or rug yo...

If it's not too late, reach out to them and contract their services... like a person who knows how to plan their camp's needs...

Several of us have tested different anchors, you're welcome to do your own tests with any anchors you're interested in.

Congrats, and you’re welcome to stamp as much of yourself as you like.... or as much of other ppl that they’re willing to let you stamp

2018 additions to our rubber stamp bar are all done and ready to go to the playa!

This post is intended as a resource guide for new burners, camp leaders, and campmates alike - basically anybody who is planning to arrive after the Burning Man gates open and/or arriving in multiple vehicles. It doesn't matter whether you're a camp that completed a questionnaire who was not able to...

The obvious challenge would be how to enforce a multitude of HOV lanes with varying levels of occupancy. It would require staffers every few hundred feet for the entire length of gate road, and who knows how many complications and disruptions to deal with ppl who ignore the posted rules along the wa...

BRC Storage placement is for camps within the city, at camp name & location. Anything placed on the open or deep playa must be done through ARTery. In order for such a plan to work, you would need to register a project through ARTery, then receive placement from them that can be passed along to the ...

I'm giving this a nudge over to the Q&A board, since that's a better fit for threads seeking help with an on-playa wedding.

Rev. Racks, you rock thanks for the info!

Yes, mutant vehicle registration ended long ago, and more recently I believe disabled registration closed.... but that doesn't mean they can not make an accommodation for a legitimate medical issue (though a part of me does scream for fuck's sakes, maybe this is the year to take off and allow your b...

Yes it does.

Help others to understand your idea - what kind of piece is it? Is it made of wood? Steel? Do you need assistance with welding, carpentry, beating on random stuff with hammers, writing code, wiring stuff? Being the 9th of August, it seems a little crazy that you still haven't nailed down a design, b...
