Was an eight hour ordeal last year. Coffee shop, freeway, then home. Luckily I have a wireless hotspot - paired that with my iPad and was able to be mobile. Replicating same this year.

Remi, that sounds right. Burner Profile is a separate entity from that of the message board handle. Each Burner Profile allows you x2 tickets and x2 parking passes. Per http://tickets.burningman.com/

Apologies for the hijack but I'm having Burner Profile issues, too. I bought tickets last year so I know for a fact I have an existing burner profile. Thing is, I can't login to my ticket burner profile and I never receive my 'recovery' email. (Which it says it's sent. Should I re-register today or ...

Duct Tape or Gorilla Tape works awesome! This takes two people to apply, and about a half an hour, but I swear it works! Just use GOOD duct tape like Nashua..or Gorilla tape. Layer and cover, until mesh is closed. Man, Gorilla Tape really worked!? I kept reading that even that wouldn't adhere prope...

Yay for Wednesday! Kick those smurfs.

LINE-UP HAS JUST BEEN RELEASED!!!! Who the fuck are these people? Imagine this bill to be mostly jazz and Miles, Coltrane, Gillespie, Bill Evans, and Charlie were playing. The electronica equivalents are in this BM lineup. I'm floored that I'll see Orbital, Infected Mushroom, and Oakie in the same ...

Uhmm.... is this real life?

Question: Is it prudent to bring lots of canned food to the playa? I wonder how big of a pain it is to leave no trace with that since you can't easily break them down. Oh! Also, is glass STRICTLY prohibited in BRC? I was at BevMo shopping for gifting but 90% of all bottles are glass. Thanks!

Got word that it's hit 80 MPH within the last few days! Also, I'm sure y'all heard about the rain. Yikes!

BKAT - you and your camp are my heros! I'm definitely swinging by for a dosage of drums!

SWEEEEET. So Thunderdome is nightly!? Thanks so much!

Oh, what a bummer! I'm coming in Wednesday and am gonna miss Thunderdome and all that wonderful industrial oontz. Is that the only party with industrial/goth paying?

^OMG. Oakenfold!? 16 year old me just fainted. I finally get my Oakie experience!!!

Woo hoo! Got my pair! PHEW. So later on just email to have the name on the other changed to my friend's? Thanks for everybody's input today - hard to imagine doing this today without it!

Aaaaaaand, REFRESH. Doop, doop, doop. Wait, wait, wait. Went over to the FB comments and... yikes!

My buddy got his and he was one of the early noon attempts. I just got back in the queue after a horribly frightening 'no tickets available' page that mysteriously disappeared.

I have to pack up my stuff and head home. Thought this would be something easy I could do over lunch but it's going on three hours now. Good luck everybody! I'm going to jump back on the horse from home with hopefully a better outlook.

Damn it, my mobile hotspot is about to die. If I reconnect under a different wireless I'll for sure lose my spot, won't I?

Hey all, I've been following this thread for the past hour with the same worries and concerns. Finally asked me to reenter my passcode again and this time it redirected me to the purchase page where I was able to go through the purchase process easily. Were you in line for a ticket at noon or just ...

Cool. Thanks all. My only worry now is that my mobile hotspot dies!

Do you guys think I should refresh? I've been sitting without any timeouts for over 30 minutes now.

Your passcode is not registered. You have reached our limit for trying. Please contact customer support for more information. ^^ That's all I'm getting now. What the hairy fuck? ...and now my GF is getting the same message so I guess plan B of her buying me a ticket is out the window too. Once agai...

argggggh

I got in at 12:08 and have been booted multiple times. Still waiting.

I've now gotten booted about 3 times! I thought it was my connection (sitting in my car with laptop running off a hotspot) but it seems we're all having this issue!? Boo!

Gah! I got on at 12:05 but timed out after 10 mins!!! Back in -- hope I didn't lose my place in line.
