I may have to take that image and make a few signs of it to post on the guard booth. I will also be preparing probably stickers of some sort to essentially stamp peoples papers. I also have a link at home for inexspensive solar lights and will hopefully remember to post it tonight. I plan on using a few of them to light up the guard shack at night.cmainiac666 wrote:Hey Jellyfish-

Ditto that. Last year we had a tough time, although we were promised an early set up, we had our crew turned away at the gate on Friday. We only got admitted on the Saturday prior because of Hagey's political connections and the Burner Hostel history with the LLC. They promise to have it better organized this year, certainly something the good Kernul should look in to as it takes a good two days to stage and set up a theme camp properly.Isotopia wrote:Monday, August 29th at 12:01 am the event opens. Do NOT attempt to arrive earlier than that or you WILL be turned away at the gate -unless you've made prior arrangements both with the event and with your theme camp.
Hopefully that'll translate into even less people getting through the cracks under the pretense of setting up with a camp. Last year was a marked improvement over 2003 but there were still a few lame-o's that got through the cracks.They promise to have it better organized this year,
Yes. I would recommed a letter from one of the "high-ups" in the LLC with a signature and list of real names that can be copied, and delivered in person and verified by photo ID at the gate. One of our group got turned away because just such a letter had his playa first name and real last name and the dufus at the gate refused to believe it was him because the first name was different on his driver's license.Badger wrote:Hopefully that'll translate into even less people getting through the cracks under the pretense of setting up with a camp.

The only reason I was thinking of stickers is to allow something to be brought home. The stamp I think is a good idea because the name of my piece is the Navel Inspection Station. So I could inspect all bely buttons and stamp the approval. Maybe have an alternate stamp for those that are smuggling belly lint.Ranger Genius wrote:Why not get an actual rubber stamp made, sammich? it doesn't cost too much. I got an embossing seal made at a stamp specialty store in my home town for under thirty bucks. Rubber stamps can be made for even much less. I saw a place advertising them for about six bucks. It would be funny if you didn't let anyone pass without getting SOMETHING stamped.
You don't need a stamp...you just need to hit harder.Rian Jackson wrote:Hey, RG, i was going to get some surly tart stamps made. Was that a local deal you saw?
They included a broken one for free that I am experimenting with. I tried drilling out little holes and putting colored LED's in the pupils, but it kind of messed up the illusion.Kernul Killbuck wrote:Very swanky idea Mr. J!!!
Perhaps you could email me a pic of one of them so as to see the possibilities. Perhaps placing them face in, inside a small box with the solar light fitted inside.
Play out the paranoia idea with this-- it seems to be right.
I was thinking of getting some of the solar powered lights- they only seem to need a dusting off of the photoelec panel now and then.
So many projects, so little time.
Still, some nice work there, Iso. Especially "3,2,1", posted to the Hall of Truth.Isotopia wrote:Yeh, i think you're right Genius. I need to keep the focus a bit tighter i think.Starting to wander (like my contributions) into the P.S.A. realm.
