We, your neighbors at Kamp Apokiliptika encourage you to embrace our cold war nostalgia theme with long, long lines at your bar. When it's finally somebody's turn to be served, just give them an oven mitt.
Long Live Kernul Killbuck!

Dear Mister Jellyfish we are very honored that you have graced us with your wisdom and insight you are most right in your assessment of the special East Bloc style service we are carefully planning for Eplaya Bar Camp.
We have been training hard and going so far as to enroll a few of our servers that were formally employed as Wal-Mart greeters to DMV School.
The measures we will employ to insure consistent lack of service will also include simply shutting down when we darn well feel like it hopefully when the line of thirsty ready to drop customers is extended thru to your camp at which time feel free to make much amusement(schadenfreude) as you quickly shut off your bar too!
At other times we had much hope that someone special from your kamp such as BoxaRoxa would entertain our guests with a turn on the stripper/dance pole au (un)natural that should really hold them mesmerized while we make another customer go get us ice first....

Also for that Stalag/Gulag touch we are requiring all guest’s to abide by a bring your own tin cup policy which reduces MOOP and has the added benefit of reducing service greatly to the unequipped former guest now victim which really is a Burning Man tradition that we seek to uphold.
Also the standard East Bloc grafting system will be adapted to the Black Rock City environment replacing most cash transactions(bribes) with the gifting of neat swag, goodies, food, blow jobs, booze, ice etc which will entitle the gifter preferred service at the judgment and mercy of the gifted bartender of course this is very similar to the system used in Mexico currently.

In a related note ePlaya Bar Bucks can also be received for all of the above so earn em lick your lips and then smile knowing a job well done is reward enough.
And of course any member of Kamp Apokiliptika will receive the preferred Kamp treatment which allows automatic unfair cuts to the front of the bar which should increase the likelihood of actually getting a drink in an undefined reasonable time frame...Maybe
Cowboy hats will automatically get the bearer very special treatment.
Specific Safety hazard:
The ePlaya security/safety/fire force of six halfwits known together as the three stooges has the training to detect the smell of rotten Herring, and at times that are deemed necessary will require the bartenders to wear the proper PPE (Nomex oven mitt) for coming in contact while serving such hazardous but very welcome guest's from far away cold Wastelandville who may enter the bar without previously warning others of their affliction.

That's not "wasting time." It's using pressure to enhance creativity. Procrastination can be good for you if used correctly.
