OK, another prank, you set up a camp and informative display that purports to be put on by a local N. Nevada industry, such as:
The Gypsum Association
"From Playa to Drywall"
Then slightly and diabolically twist the message to something else entirely without losing believability.

That wouldn't be too hard to pull off, what with the USG plant right behind the store in Empire. I Know several people that work there.

Here are some ideas for pranks:

Have the greeters dress like TSA guards, inspecting luggage, etc. Every once in a while, someone identifies someone that looks suspicious. That person is immediately tasered, handcuffed and dragged to a special off site camp where they spend the rest of the week in total luxury. (see you were all expecting something like Gitmo. Thats too simple)

Crash a remote-controlled 737 into the ribcage of the man, setting it on fire early. Yes I know the man burning early has been done before, but this has more artistic merit and a good degree of difficulty.

What...too soon?

EVERYBODY knows TSA stands for Totally Shitty Attitude...

make the disgruntled postal workers look like candystripers.

One more time!
Holy shit that brought tears to my eyes! Somebody working Gate or Greeters Station has got to print a few of these out and randomly insert them into the guides for this year! And throw in some "swimming pool tickets" and "ride coupons" or gift certificates to Playa restaurants that don't really exist... How about an official looking document that says:
"Congratulations, you are the official winner of the 2008 Black Rock City Luxury Lottery! Please proceed directly to the man pavilion, where you'll be spending the week in 43 ft luxury coach, complete with a private chef and a driver for your choice of one of six fabulous art cars!"

I had a porta-potty idea that I won't be able to do, maybe somebody else can take it and run with it?

I wanted to make a Johnny on the spot look like the scene of a grisly murder, rig a prosthetic arm or hand to look like its hanging out the crapper, sling fake blood everywhere, maybe leave a bloodstained shirt and rubber knife lying on the floor, and to finish it off, police tape the door shut and then cut it open, leaving the yellow tape hanging like someone else was there first.

My friends variation of this is to just sling the fake blood around and leave a bloody rubber fetus on the floor inside the door.

This is a prank I used to pull while touring! It's pretty gross, but the reaction is priceless! Once one of your unsuspecting friends passes out, get a pair of tighty whites (briefs underwear and they have to be white) and rub a little dirt on them, maybe rip a couple tiny holes in them, whatever, just make'em look used. Once you've gotten your used pair of underwear take a little mustard, smear on the (inside) front of them, then take some good ole hearty chili and rub on the (inside) back, get the idea?! Now proceed to throw on your friends face and watch the reaction!!

You can buy fake security cameras which have a tiny red blinky light and will track motion. Just sayin'.

BYOL = Bring Your Own Larry. I do, of course.

How about getting ten (or so) people, spread them all over BRC and get them to start doing something at the exact same time, say, screaming and running about?

We spent a good chunk of a day in '06 parked in lawnchairs across the way from Camp Compliment, hurling insults at everyone they gave a compliment to. Some of their members thought it was funny and came to eat watermelon with us. Others found it slightly less amusing...

One year I collected AOL discs from everywhere I went, and on Saturday I rode around and put them in every single mail box I could find. I like reminding people that the corporate world is still out there, and it's watching.

my friend bert likes to do this one...

grab the chocolate pudding filling pack from some fudge brownies. Go to a porta-pottie and sit down and then spread said pudding all over your hands and face....Leave the door unlocked and wait....

it's important to have a shit-eating grin on your face when the unsuspecting victim opens the door.
