Re: The Perfect Ticket System
You’ve regurgitated this cut & paste across a few social media platforms. The ideal post would be original content, and shorter. Yes I did it, but I'm trying to get ideas from different groups of people. I HAD to post here too because this forum takes discussion more seriously than Facebook. It is ...

The Perfect Ticket System
As a though experiment, I'd like to present "the perfect" Burning Man ticket. Rather than show solutions, I'll show the joys of an hypothetical utopian ticket system, even if the solution to an item is "it will work, somehow, by magic". The Perfect BM Ticket would work like this: People get their ti...

Random Burning Man Information Radio audio excerpts
Hello people! I made a page with several audio excerpts from BMIR 2018 transmission. Feel free to explore and get that feeling of being more and more misinformed. Random BMIR audio excerpts: https://randombmir.github.io/ I have selected the finest gold I could find in all that week of transmission. ...

Tips from someone who slept in a car, alone.
I decided to sleep in a car because: - you don't have to set a tent and fix on the ground; - the car seals better against dust; - high fees to bring heavy tent back in an airplane; - the car has A/C for desperate times. Greatest thing about sleeping in the car: you just arrive at your spot and that'...

Tried in work PC (chrome, firefox, explorer), home PC (chrome) and Android (chrome), all at different networks (cable, 4G) - all appear the same, no text. It appears th...

Re: Sleeping in a Cargo Van.
My plan is to sleep inside a minivan. I'll put all seats down and use and old single person mattress for me, as I'll make it solo to Burning Man. To control heat, I'll tape a reflective sheet on the ceiling and windows, also, to control dust I'll tape some plastic to the semi-open window. I'll cover...

Re: Visit the Black Rock City Airport -- For a Gift Ride:
Can't believe it is possible! I was dreaming about it but I didn't want to bother anyone.
Does anyone know if we have to pay the $60 airport gate fee?

Carry everything for the week on the Burner Express Bus?
Hello there people! I'm wondering if it is possible to carry all your stuff for the week on the bus (including tent, food, bike, clothes, water, lights and few extras). Has anyone here done that? - carry ALL your things, with your own hands, without depending on anyone else or any other resource but...

Renting a car in 2017
If you rented a common car last year, how was your rental? Did you cleaned it in Reno? How much it was? Did you returned your car in another city? Did the company complained about anything? I know this rental subject was fairly debated before, but I want to know current changes in policy and tech. I...
