522'ed after 33 minutes? Do we have a sellout?

I got 522 Could Not Connect errors for about two minutes and then finally got the spinner. Sadly, my brother just got dumped with a 502 error after 20 minutes of watching the spinner. Looks like the new vendor has introduced our old ticket day frustrations.

I tried something similar with PVC mounted on 2x4's and it wasn't wind that an issue as much as the weight of the tarp (I actually used shade cloth to reduce wind load). Cinching the tarps down pushed the tarp stand offs (the buckets for your design) toward the middle of the truck. I think your plan...

Thanks, that's what I'm interested in knowing, which company will be providing advanced life support services.

Does anyone know who is going to provide advanced life support services this year? CrowdRx has no mention of BM their page anymore. Thanks.

For those of you with custom camp flags, where did you get yours? I couldn't find any mention of custom camp flags in ePlaya. A G---le search yielded a few possibilities but a known source would be preferred. PM would be great to avoid any decommodification indiscretions. Thanks.

Got the email last week and the signature notice from USPS a few days later. Picked 'em up on Monday.

Same for me, mine are also imprinted with $990.

The line is moving, a friend was just offered tickets. Keep the faith and work those networks.

I built a shade structure last year for a similar sized truck as the OP's. My shade was anything but airplane portable though. I used fence rail to build a 'box' around the truck and planned to cover the top, front and one side with shade cloth (I was worried about the wind load on 30' long tarps; d...

I'm with Lucky, ice ice baby

I'm building a shade structure for my box truck 'camper' this year. Unlike an RV, there is nothing but aluminum skin and it gets really hot inside once the sun comes up. I'm building my 10' x 30' x 11' structure with fence top rail and shade cloth to mitigate wind load. The top and the south side wi...

So, my friends and I had an idea: A few of us have pretty darn good credit - and we could BUY a USED cargo van or a small box truck with an auto loan. If we buy it in the next three weeks, we should be able to get it "permanently" plated and insured by the time the playa opens. Anyone have any expe...

Got the email yesterday at 5:00PM and found an 'envelope waiting' slip from the post office in my mailbox when I got home. Picked up the tickets today. It's getting very real.

The spice is indeed flowing, one of my camp mates got her LI notification yesterday as well.

My brother got to the purchase screen at 1:12 and no tickets were available.

Got two tickets here, vehicle passes sold out.

LOL. My wife got into my ticket package and ate the Fireball. She just texted me "Holy cr.. that Fireball is super hot! I have to keep taking it out of my mouth." I got a bag to hand out in the Gate line and to leave with Will Call.

@GreyCoyote Looks like your watermelon knife is OK.

You mean the tip that clearly says APRIL FOOLS right below the video? :roll: :D That was the first time I saw Chuck Miller so every time I watch him now I keep hearing in my head "lay it on thick". And yes, I did see the date on the video. The hook in the drill is a good idea and I will use if I ha...

After seeing this tip I've hard a hard time taking anything Chuck Miller says seriously.

A medium duty tarp might be OK until, well, it isn't. I bought a super heavy duty from tarpsupply.com for my monkey hut when I built it last year. I didn't want to take the chance that my tarp would shred in high winds.

Just following on from the above post i just made, contemplating cooling a 24' rented box truck with a reflective tarp above it, which is separated from the truck below, providing an air gap and wonder whether a swamp cooler has ever been employed in such a setting, for i cannot find any such thing...

Wow... almost done with mine. Never thought I could do it. Whoops, I don't have a battery charger for home use. Any recommendations? I don't need anything special or quick charging, just something that won't kill a battery. I was thinking of getting one of these: http://www.amazon.com/Battery-Tende...

The email comes from [email protected].

Last year we built a 6’ stretch yurt (BFD mod), and didn’t heed the advice to protect the bifi tape. With 2014 rolling in, we're at the stage of re-taping the hinges. We didn’t remove last year’s tape and most of it has deteriorated and lost its adhesion. When we pull the old tape off, the adhesive ...

Got the email today. Perhaps "the package" will arrive on Monday.

But as I learned last year, you do need to know the password.

I built a 14' x 24' MH last year using 24' ribs to 'garage' a Ford E250 van. The van is ~7' tall and easily fit inside. Remember, MH ribs don't form a perfect circle, they kind of flatten at the top. You may be able to get away with 24' ribs with the ends 15' apart. I needed an overall height greate...
