Destroit

Yay! Congrats to kat. If you are still down you just won yourself a free spot! I will PM you right away.

ATTENTION We have a DGN member who is registered and paid up to go but lives in the Algonac area and needs transportation. This person is willing to sufficiently compensate for gas. Anyone helping out with this would be absolutely cool! PM me if you would like to help out.

Registration is now closed! We have 31 people confirmed! See you all in a few days. I also sent out a PM (or actually am in the process of it)...READ IT! Very important! I remind everyone that visitors should come somewhat early in the day as they are not allowed to stay all night. On the same token, if you bring someone who is not on the roster (as it is now being finalized), with the intent of them staying...it will not happen! They can come to visit but come late-night they cannot crash out in someone's tent and cause there to be extra people on your lot! If I find someone trying to sneak someone overnight or some stupid bull like that, that person may not be allowed back.

So yeap, you're hanging out with us the whole time. It will rule.

You're a dork . We'll all be out there.

Awww...crappy :( And this is the third DGN Camping Trip, the MANFAST term was coined the first year and the event name changed the second year.

Originally, they were predicting 80% chance of Isolated Storms Friday, 60% of Scattered Thunderstorms Saturday, and a 40% chance of rain on Sunday. BUT...it looks like all that stuff has been pushed back and now there is a 40% chance of Scattered Storms on Friday, 20% chance of sprinkles Saturday, and a 0% chance of precipitation on Sunday! Looks like this will be the first MANFAST ever where it's not going to soak us!

This is Chernobyl on behalf of Timata because he is awesome and got me beers. He is too lazy to go upstairs and fire up his computer so he says: "No need to enter, just start posting manly."

Psssht...been there. The Beatles were wrong when they said "all you need is love", what the meant is "all you need is tequilla" and you won't notice those pesky moments in life where it seems as though you should have just been fatally wounded.

Yes, it's people who are looking for a cop-out or scapegoat, an excuse to be lazy and not "be able" () to control themselves, that seem to love blaming inanimate objects, substances, other people, etc. Guns don't make people violent, being stupid does.

Phee, it's called jousting...duh! Haven't you been to Ren Fest? Just imagine that shit but in the modern times, like a Ford Focus versus a Chevy Cobalt, for instance.

Whoever wins also gets to stay on the hill on Chernobyl's lot!

Yes, normally people would need to check-in to get two parking permits for a total of $12. However if you have a valid Michigan State Park pass than you do not need to pay and you should not need to check-in anywhere. Since there are no other groups going to be there this week besides us, the lady on the phone said it would be okay if we came a little early from the 3pm check in time. I personally plan on being there at noon, but ask that everyone else waits until at least 1-2pm to start showing up so that I may set up my stuff and get settled. I also gave everyone the cellphone number that can be called to reach us. I'm hoping that the signal will stand out in the woods, we were getting okay enough on-and-off signal last year so that it was not a problem. What I think I am going to do about this dilemna, just in case, is I will PM everyone our cell # again and ask you to PM a cellphone number from someone traveling with you. This is so that if our shitty Black Berry gets bad reception out in the woods (we had a different, much better phone last year) we can call from someone's phone to check up on you if you're taking awhile.

All this land you see will be ENTIRELY our kingdom for one weekend! I checked to make sure that no other groups have reserved for the group area annnnnd - WE ARE THE ONLY ONES! We have private outhouses this year so that instead of shitting on strangers' shit all weekend; we'll only be shitting on piles of each OTHER'S goth shit all weekend! It'll be just like CC! We also have our own private water pump that isn't 800 billion miles away like the last two years... And instead of being camped out by a swamp with shittons of mosquitoes...we're PARKED RIGHT ON THE MAIN WATER!!!!!! FUCK YEAH!

TODAY IS THE DEADLINE! I CANNOT GUARANTEE YOU A SPOT AFTER TODAY!!!! With that said: We're looking at 30-35 people (not including visitors!) When I say I cannot guarantee you a spot that does not mean I may not be willing to try, but may not be able to (and definitely am not obligated to!) Please PM me if there is an issue! Now is the timeeee!

TODAY is the day before the registration deadline! I still have a few stragglers I'm working with, all and all I believe we're probably going to end up with 30-35 ! Of course, that doesn't include our visitor cameos, with visitors we will probably be over 40 People who signed up late: The roster of who's going and who is on who's lot is the SECOND post in this thread. It is updated regularly and timestamped every time it is. Check it! Also, if the same group of people have not noticed, 99% of all important relevant MANFAST info for this year is properly posted on the VERY FIRST page at the VERY top. It's the shit with a lot of text that you're most likely reluctant to read because it's boring. Go take a huge dump, bring your laptop with you, and knock that thing out if you haven't already, as I said, important stuff. If you do not have a laptop, use your printer to print it from your desktop PC. If you have no printer, go to one of your neighbor's or relative's house, use their printer or laptop, shit in their bathroom, read this stuff, then leave. The whole thing should take 15 minutes tops. There are also NO refunds unless you have a legitimate emergency. An emergency is NOT "My family is having a thing last minute," or "I don't have transportation and did not bother to arrange any" or "I forgot to put money aside for gas" or "I got called into work" OR...ETC. An emergency is a death in the family, uncontrollable catastrophe (car LEGITIMATELY blows up, blows a tire, gets wrecked), house is on fire, family pet gets hit and killed by a car, child comes down with H1N1, etc. Just to make things clear on the refund policy. I will be calling tomorrow to order the last batch of lots....EXCITEMENT! We have EIGHT days, THREE hours, NINE minutes, and FIFTY-ONE seconds until there's no turning back!

HOLY HELL! We just reached THIRTY member paid up and 100% confirmed! This is definitely a MANFAST record! The first epic year, the year the seeds of manliness were planted, we had 9 die hard DGN members (us included) The second year, including the visitors, we had around 25 (without visitors probably around 20) The THIRD YEAR WE REACHED THE BIG THREE-O! The fourth year? Let's aim for forty! Added Michi and Amie Lamie to the paid-up list. Thanks for helping me make DGN history guys A reminder to people: FRIDAY IS THE DEADLINE! I CANNOT GUARANTEE YOU A SPOT IF YOU PAY ME PAST THEN! GET YOUR ASSES MOVING!

Yes, I use the method Eevee uses because then as people are scrolling down it shows a full sized picture. The second method will cause it to show up as a thumbnail. Basically, when you post, at the bottom because you hit the "post" button there will be a box and a Browse button, giving you a chance to add a picture attachment. When you do this, it will upload it directly from your hard drive and attach it to the post. This is ideal for people who don't have a hosting account (i.e. a Photobucket or something to that effect)

NERD FOR THINKING ANIME! (I call myself out too because I was going to name off Faye Valentine) Faye has the short angled hair.

I did get the map done and written out directions. For those who have been asking for a specific address for Mapquest; I'm working on it. I'm not even sure if one would be worthwhile, honestly I believe the map is your best bet, but when I call them either tomorrow or Tuesday to get some more lots I will ask. Just because...what kind of address would you Mapquest for that? 1 Some-Tree-In-A-Huge-Campground, Brighton, MI? What I will do if there is no specific address (and I doubt there is), I will ask for the camp headquarter address and people can stop in there and ask. It may be handy anyways because you must stop in to the Bishop Campground area to pick up a parking pass when you first arrive. Expect a PM from me shortly if you are either on the "confirmed" or "visitor" list with the map and directions.

I can always arrange that
