Re: Out of control scams.
It seems to me like the Borg should have a year where they just have a blanket no transfers rule. If you buy a ticket you must go or lose the money you spent. Require ID That matches the name assigned to the ticket or no entry. Even if that were implemented, I think we'd still see a lot of people s...

Out of control scams.
A lot of the discussion boards I’m on regarding Burning Man are filled with people who were scammed buying canceled or otherwise unavailable tickets. It seems to me like the Borg should have a year where they just have a blanket no transfers rule. If you buy a ticket you must go or lose the money yo...

Re: Shake-down on the Rezs?
That press release basically confirms that they are willing participants in this.
This seems like an amazingly short sighted action on their part. Good luck Paiute, you really spite your own face with this one.

Live cam?
So this is my second year in a row not going to the burn. Last year I watched the on playa live cam several times. It was a nice way to feel like I was there in some small way. Anybody got a URL for it this year?

Re: Controlling RGB Leds

nope are you saying Obama deserved a peace prize? I worked to get Obama elected by going door to door in Reno in 2008. I voted for him again in 2012. I would've voted for him a third time if it'd been possible in 2016. He didn't deserve the Nobel Peace Prize. While his policies were different from ...

One more, 2007 or 2008 I think, I guess this counts as an "art car" but it had no motor.

Re: Best thing you ever saw
I've got to agree that Uchronia was really spectacular. It really was. I remember the first night at the burn that year, I saw Uchronia out on the horizon, flashing from the lighting. I thought it was a cloud off over Winnemucca with lightning. 2004's Alien Semaphore was one of my favourites. It wa...

So, many of us here have been to lots of burns. I've been to 12. I've seen a lot of great art.
So, in all those years you've gone. What's been your favourite thing (or event) out there?

2009 Though not particularly lethal, it was a theme park of danger, pain, injuries and goddamn quality family fun! Lots of road rash that year. Of the 12 years I've gone, that happened to be one of the two years I took a friend to medical by Center Camp. While my friend in 2009 was getting help, I ...

Was probably the nicest playa to ride on since 2010, and maybe even better than that. It was effortless to pedal virtually anywhere and I didn't encounter a single dune. That is, unless you rode around on the 9:00 side, which had foot-deep blast craters in the roads that ruined many a bifkin. It wa...

It was hot as hell during the day. Like, can't move from your chair, risk heat exhaustion/stroke by moving about hot.

Shits bad. Closure is indefinite. (Click that link to get updates, since I think eplaya cuts off updates after 30 minutes on posts.)
