There was a comment on a facebook post that really hit home for me. It was directed at long time burners who did not get tickets this year (ie. ME). It went something like this.
Don't let the event be your only shell of the burning man experience, use this as an opportunity to take your experience to another location and share your love of art and people and music. Go to India, go to Tibet, go anywhere and be the person you are while at Burning Man.
This was pretty profound for me. Actually got me thinking that this may have been the best possible outcome to not actually get a ticket. I am not giving up on the event, there is another sale, albeit only 10K tickets left, but you never know. Really, this is just a nice thought to have other than being pissed at BMORG for whatever they got themselves into with this ticket system.
- I think that this sentiment is part of what the BM organizers might be trying to provoke. Perhaps some long-time burners have gotten to comfortable with coming home and need to "walkabout" a bit.nato
