Re: dry ice
A big kudo's to dry ice! It's amazing shit when you have few alternatives. It's likely losing its attractiveness given solar generators and the like, but it still serves a kick-ass purpose for what it was designed for and if logistics are constrained its a rock star. My first burn I brought a cooler...

Re: PAGE TWO
So what big crazy original shit are you doing? And we've actually reached a point where that ticket is going to go to a person connected to something huge, or to someone bringing their soul to spread wonder and joy. There is a choice. There are not infinite tickets. Honestly gang, I met a lot of yo...

Re: PAGE TWO
... But I will stand by my point, bringing "big art" to burning man does *usually* take money. And time. And under capitalism, time = money. So by default, bringing large scale art to burning man is often off limits to artists without large scale budgets or the connections to fund their large scale...

Re: DGS Ticket Troubles
Discovered that the issue was on Ticketings side. The somehow provided him a link that contained an "extra space" in the URL which caused the problem.
You are correct there were VERY responsive and replied before the day was over.

DGS Ticket Troubles
Today during DGS ticketing one of my campmates tried to purchase tickets. For reference: I'm the camp lead and I registered his e-mail address ahead of the sale and was given the "Good to Go" so the e-mail address was fully registered, burner profiles created, etc., etc. He was able to get to the po...

Yes, definitely keep your private porto secret, don't even tell your campmates. That's what I do every burn.

Yeah, puppy play is a fairly specific 'thing' in the kink world. Probably not your bag.

There was no intent behind the dog theme, other than since we were ...

You want an impact driver. They sell super handy little 1/4" drive models but I'd be more tempted to go up a size. I have to agree with the Captain, pump up the impact wrench to something you know will do the job. I took a 1/2", 20Volt impact driver with 5/8" x 23" lag bolts and that worked wonderf...
