Re: What did you do to be an Asshat in 2012?
I insisted on joining my friends in their adventures, which -- due to my leg-breaking adventures earlier in the summer -- meant they had to slow down (waaaay the fuck down) and wait for me while I crutched through soft playa and took many breath-catching breaks. Eventually, I smartened up and stopp...

Re: 2012 Experiences with Police
Yeah 10 cars AT LEAST! And yes why is it so hard to believe that an obstructed license plate could get you pulled over- and as far as dogs go, yes indeed they can ask to search your car- not the only story I heard of either! I understand that if you are not doing anything wrong you will not get arre...

Re: 2012 Experiences with Police
1.) A campmate (virgin) and his wife who is a doctor were pulled over when they got to about 6:30 because dust was obscuring the license plate. A dog was brought out and yes a 500 dollar ticket was given. 2.) Thursday night near the Pier an art car was being searched by a dog and at least 10 cars sc...

Re: 1 or 2 12 V deep cycle and LED lights?
Thank you all so very much for responding! I should have paid way more attention in the 1.5 years of Physics classes. Anyway- I had an electrical engineer friend come over and assess the situation. Right now I have 750 LED strip lights on the top part of the car. Each strip has either 3 or 4 individ...

Re: 1 or 2 12 V deep cycle and LED lights?
Thanks for responding! We have all different kinds of LED light strip modules that we got second hand from someone who owns a sign company. Some of them look like the ones in this photo- some have 3 lights, others four, and some that look like dominoes. http://www.lights-expert.com/b2b/lighting_fixt...

1 or 2 12 V deep cycle and LED lights?
Hi everyone- I hope some one can help! I have a ton (300' +) of LED lights. They are the old variety which look like strips of 3-4 lights on a plastic backing- some look like dominoes. Last year we covered our art cart in them and ran them off a 12 V deep cycle. This year we are doubling the amount ...

Re: Headlights?
Headlights are a definite! Go to the auto store and pick up a cheap pack of halogens or LEDs. You can run them off a car battery and they put out a ton of light. We also have red LEDs in the back- and we have a golfcart too. You want big art cars to see you and you definitely want to spot people tha...

Re: ticket situation
People can not be excluded just because they are not veteran burners. Sure not many of us like the idea of weekend warrior, tourist, frat-house style partiers coming out to the playa just to stare, gock at tits, puke on art cars, wearing their affliction gear and fist pumping. However, hopefully the...

Confirmation Page But No Confirmation Email???
Hi everyone- Hope you are all hanging in there after today! Hope many of you will get tickets and be out on the playa in no time celebrating! Did any of you get a confirmation page but no email? I finally got the confirmation page at 12:18 after constant page refreshing like everyone else. But still...

Re: STEP has launched... but server crashed immediately
Went through the same rigamaro as everyone else. Was so happy at 12:18 to get the confirmation page. Got the confirmation page saying look for an email- but no email. Anyone know what to do? Should I be worried!

Re: New Blog - Ticket Update: Rebuilding Black Rock City 201
Yeah that really bums me out. Living in Reno- I started going to Burning Man in 95 when I was 16. I feel like many others do about the situation...rejected. I was hoping for another chance at STEP to get tickets. I agree with a previous post- many of us did the "right thing". We didn't use mass cred...
