Re: The 2025 Burning Man Bar is open

[Elorrum]

lol whispy lil Colonel! He made “keep it potentially fatal” stickers, so I guess I’ll have some rickshaw decoration. Pulling, yes, but a narrow tongue, not the side rails like a regular rickshaw. I liked your idea of a draw bar, I have a hardwood broom handle I can incorporate I think. I mean, I’m leaving Thursday, it s nearly done… being designed!

we'll be anxiously awaiting an after action report, and hopefully photos!

Hello bar,

PSA- sugar ants can and will bite you. You don’t feel the bites but a bit later the bites will become raised welts and the welts last for a while.

seems it's make sense they'd bite you........sweet flower that you are! I mean, how do you even keep ants and bees away? I bet you just stir your coffee with your finger to sweeten it!
did you go to PBB?

Testing my quote button.

My account seems to be working OK yg. Not sure what's going on. I guess you could write it up in the "eplaya feedback" subtopic thread.

Also, the mighty Sham may see this and offer a suggestion.

This kind of snafu has me flummoxed.

Hit the reset button and power your computer down. If that doesn't work, I don't have a clue.

seems still not working, tried restarting... I'm such a luddite, I really don't even know where to look. Seems non of the "buttons"[size=150][color=#BF0040][color=#BF0040] work for me[/color][/color][/size].

[ygmir]

oh also, BVB, I don't have another device.

[burner von braun]

Looks like one of the mods must have done a little redecorating here in the the Bar. It seemed to me like the recent advice given to a burgin about ticket sales was pretty spot-on, but I guess they have their reasons for removing it.

Yg, I'm thinking any other computer or device with access to the Internet that you can briefly borrow when you get a chance, other than the one you typically use, will suffice. That way you can temporarily login to eplaya, and try posting a quote (or colors, size, etc) from that machine. Perhaps then you can determine if it is your machine or your account that is haywire.

It's still here, but split off under the introductions, as it was more appropriate there than the bar thread. Just a little housekeeping, so the bar doesn't wander off the cliff. https://eplaya.burningman.org/viewtopic ... 4#p1227775

[burner von braun]

Thanks Sham. Hope all is well over your way!

Also, another thought yg...
I was looking through my settings here, and it might be worth checking-

In-
> User Control Panel
>> Board Preferences
>>> Edit Posting Defaults

...make sure that Enable BBcode by default is Yes

Not sure just what that even is, but mine is set to Yes, and I have a vague recollection of having to make that adjustment, or one like it, when I first got here, so that everything worked. Worth taking a look anyhow.

That's pretty much all I got, Lol!

well, I turned it off and back on, just as an attempt at resetting.
I sort of remember this happening years ago, but can't remember the fix... dang it.

also, Sham: "Just a little housekeeping, so the bar doesn't wander off the cliff."
well, it is 2024 now....

went and deleted "all board cookies", and still nothing... also, it won't let me change some settings, I click the change, and "submit" and when it comes back, they are not changed...

curious.

Hallo da bar! Greetings from field camp on *former* Aral sea. (thank you starlink).
I hope all are well, I happening to check computer stuff and see eplaya so come to say hallo!
Seems my quote works.

[Sham]

The tech glitches have been reported to our vast team of computer savvy wizards. Let's see what the hell they come up with.
Stay tuned....

[mgb327]

Well gang, we have our tickeeeeees! Who else is going this year? Can't suck as bad as last year. (or can it?)

[JayBobBoy]

I never really expect to get tickets these days but I got lucky this morning. Now I have to see if I can make it work!

[niner-zero]

I got lucky too! Go figure.

Been years since I scored tickets in the main sale.

[Cyben]

Got my tickets within the first 20 minutes of waiting. This year will be my first

[FlyingMonkey]

Congrats to everyone who scored tickets!

[Patsh]

So, mgb327, is this a challenge?
A dare?

[mgb327]

Challenge accepted? Double-dog dare ya. Camp with us?

[Patsh]

Challenge accepted? Double-dog dare ya. Camp with us?

Oooh man, I'd be honoured to camp with you(s)!!
No ticket, and wasn't really planning to go this year, but all of a sudden, I'm having second (forty-third) thoughts!
Last time was 2018, way TF too long ago.

Now you've got me scheming...
hehehe

What? Maybe you and your sibling in the Great White North might come with you. There have been some great times still going on. I hope you make it this year.

Now, that would be the bee's knees, wouldn't it? I still have all their camping stuff in AZ.
I'll hone my power of persuasion, and see what comes of it.
Wish me luck!

There still remains the fact that we'll have to scrounge up 3 tickets and a vehicle pass.

If this can happen, what we usually do is meet in Reno a couple of days before gate opens, my little car is packed to the gills, and they take the Burner Express in.

(I still have three siblings- sisters- in the Great White North, one brother in Uruguay, and one brother in Arizona...)

*wanders in, sets up bar, grabs mug from ENECM*
Hi gang!! looks like some excitement !! yay for gettting tickets.
Patsh: I'm sure you can get tickets and a VP, they're always floating around. It'd be like the "Holy Trinity" if you and Delle and Kenny all showed up at once!!!

Having all three of us back there together again would be a long-standing dream come true!
I know, if it's meant to be, tickets will come to us.
There will remain their plane fare from Quebec to Reno and back.

I've been accused of being an unrelenting optimist, more than once...
