has the directed group sold out yet?

we got invites the last 2 years and i think we are in good standing? so i hope...

i assume that i should not panic if i have not received an invitation yet?

i second this request!

yeah, that's my fear. (time to burn is a great app, btw. thanks!) so without location data, you pretty much have to get internet connection somewhere at BM for this app to have location data. too bad it's not released beforehand...

that's a great idea, but the problem is the data appears to rely on BMorg releasing location info online. as of 2 hours ago, it wasn't there. though contacting the developer might shed some light as to when they received the location details too... thanks trilo!

i noticed that the app "iBurn" is only updated for 2012 and the data provided by BMorg doesn't have camp locations. do we know when either will be updated?

we got placed on the corner of 7 & A!!! my whole camp feels blessed & stoked!!! i'd email placement to say thank you, but i'm sure they are overwhelmed. so, a big "THANK YOU" shouted from eplaya.

seriously. i was fine until i got the email from placement saying that they were "moments away" from announcing. that was 5 hours ago. oh the pain.

STEP-queue-dwelling-folks will be happy to know that my camp mate received 2 STEP tickets today.

i'm sure trilo's first question is, "what was the time stamp?" and the answer is 12:08 on the day STEP went live.

good luck STEPpers even though you probably won't need it.

wow.... i never even *thought* about how someone would give me something illegal to take up there. guess i'll be sticking to people i know... or doing bag searches for sure... good to know... Funny but that's the first thing I thought of... Nasty suspicious soul that I am. Then again there were soo...

thanks all! great stuff. savannah, we took an old mercedes (my sweet dear prissy) the last 3 years and managed to get quite a bit of stuff in her including our (zook arch) shade and 2/3s of the dodgeball court. so i'm hoping we'll have the space. my plan is to have a staging area that mimics the siz...

i'm renting a cargo van for this year and probably won't use all the space. i might haul a bunch of stuff for people in my camp & split the cost, but also thought about charging some "reasonable" price for taking other people's things to the playa if we don't need all the space. perhap...

that's what i've been telling my campmates that don't have tickets... but part of me still wonders and i'm still happy that i have a ticket...

The picture is accurate to what I said, save for Boulevard G. However that's still a relatively newer thing, and still being developed by Placement. I'm sure they'll update it as they reach the point where it becomes an integral part of the placement process. yeah, it's just not as intuitive to tho...

awesome! thanks trilo. it might be a good idea for BMorg to update their picture/instructions in the questionnaire to have this info...

Thank you.

sorry eric. didn't mean to start a riot. my original message was actually to you and then i figured i'd spare you and just ask eplaya instead. whoops.

awesome. thanks all.

yeah, that's what i'm thinking. the placement questionnaire reads ... esplanade ... is the first street at the front and ... avenues ... are high visibility & traffic locations on the radial streets of course, they wrote "avenue" and described it as a "radial street "... lol....

i was filling out the placement questionnaire and it seems as though there's options for streets and avenues... but i can't find what the difference is anywhere on bm.com or on eplaya.... does anyone know? are "streets" the radials and "avenues" the spokes? http://www.burningman....

lol. lots of love here. obviously, we aren't film makers. just having fun. sorry you didn't like it!

hope you all enjoy it! (it's 24 minutes long)

wow. 4k low income. 3k pre sales (did they sell out?). 10k direct (did they sell out?) and 40k main sale.... gone.... though only 57k tickets + 1k more for OMG as opposed to 61k last year. (wasn't that the number?) i'm betting BMorg releases more tickets into STEP once they get their permit from BLM...

my apologies if this was answered, but i didn't see it....

... what if you didn't register and the main sale doesn't sell out? at that point, can you register at any point and then buy a ticket? i ask for my camp mates that are in the "maybe" crowd...

is the BMorg going to release ticket stats? i'd be curious how many of the 10k were purchased...

"$65 cheaper than i paid"

...everyone.can.go....

if only we knew this 5 months ago.... oh wait, BMorg told us this would happen.

yes! praise the almighty timestamp!!!!

It should be in the link that the email gives you. Everyone that can't go should hit decline so not everyone is waiting 72 hours for the next ticket(s)... it's not there. damn. i want to help the next STEP'er in line... though anyone who really wanted tickets should have been able to buy them in th...

Just got offered 2 x $390 tickets through STEP but as I have already secured a ticket these are going straight back. See you on the playa (.timestamp 12.28..ish) awesome! so much good news going around! how were you able to decline them? i didn't see that button/link. so i'm just letting mine expire.
