+Shotgun & Peashooter Posted December 20, 2003 Posted December 20, 2003 Count us in! It is only 6:30am and Zoom & Peashooter are still sawing logs and do not have a clue that I have made the reservations. I think I will keep quiet and see how long it takes them to read the forum and see that we will be attending. So anyway, we will be in A16 next to Westly Crew and across from Mr. Snazz. Will be great to meet all you crazy cachers! Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted December 20, 2003 Posted December 20, 2003 I linked the picture to the original site so it should update here. Quote
+pdxrose Posted December 21, 2003 Posted December 21, 2003 LSwandering will be joining me for this great event! Quote
+EleriandBlade Posted December 29, 2003 Posted December 29, 2003 We've got a disabled little one, and live not far from the park, so the odds are we wouldn't camp, but we'll see about joining in! ~Eleri Quote
+The Mailleman Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 What are the details? Start Friday (June 4th) or Saturday (june 5th)? We just might head on up. What kind of drunken hoopla goes on? Thanks, The Mailleman Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 I believe it starts on saturday but we've rented a site for friday and saturday. Friday is free camping day. Quote
+Wander Lost Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 What are the details? Start Friday (June 4th) or Saturday (june 5th)? We just might head on up. What kind of drunken hoopla goes on? Thanks, The Mailleman Ususally most people start showing up Friday late afternoon/evening. (that whole silly work thing and all) Most of the actual events are on Saturday, but the drunken hoopla starts Friday and goes on the rest of the weekend. Quote
Sassquatch Posted January 3, 2004 Posted January 3, 2004 (edited) MMMMMMMM...... HOOPLA!! And can anyone tell me why I see a warn 0% under my avatar? I've been hanging out on the PDX site and haven't seen all the new features here. Edited January 3, 2004 by Sassquatch Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted January 3, 2004 Posted January 3, 2004 (edited) And can anyone tell me why I see a warn 0% under my avatar? It just means you haven't posted anything that would be naughty so that a moderator would issue you a warning. If your percentage goes up high enough I believe you are put to death Edited January 3, 2004 by Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Quote
+Team Maximus Posted January 4, 2004 Posted January 4, 2004 I'll be making this my first event cache. I havn't frequented the forums so most of you don't know me but I guess I will see you all there. I talked to Quantum Mechanic and Sassquatch the other day and I'll be drinking...er staying with them since they have room for one more. Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted January 4, 2004 Posted January 4, 2004 I would imagine at some point in time we'll have a group bonfire or lynching or something we can all participate in right? Quote
+bazzle Posted January 5, 2004 Posted January 5, 2004 The "group" thing would be the ivy pulling and the potluck that follows. Plus usually some cache type activities and of course Apparatus III (right Soup???) Quote
soup Posted January 5, 2004 Posted January 5, 2004 The "group" thing would be the ivy pulling and the potluck that follows. Plus usually some cache type activities and of course Apparatus III (right Soup???) Yes, the usual Ivy/Potluck will occur. Then there are the cache events, including a new fractalSoup adventure, and yes.. Apparatus III. I cant wait!! However, there is PLENTY of room for other events if people are ambitious enough. Past ideas include: FrisbeeGPS, Kids Scavenger Hunt, and my new favorite... YurtCrawl! (Kinda like pubcrawl, but with yurts/tents!!). Quote
Sassquatch Posted January 7, 2004 Posted January 7, 2004 Team Maximus Posted on Jan 4 2004, 02:30 PM I'll be making this my first event cache.

Did I mention that Mardi Gras Man won't be in the sassquatch yurt. He's moving to New Mexico and will be replaced with newcomer Team Maximus so break out the tar and feathers for the hazing ceremony.

+pdxmarathonman Posted January 7, 2004 Posted January 7, 2004 so break out the tar and feathers for the hazing ceremony. That was my favorite part of the whole weekend. Well, the 2nd time anyway. Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted January 8, 2004 Posted January 8, 2004 So we've signed up to pull ivy out. Teaches me for not reading the fine print. I'm thinking about a great event cache the weekend after this one. I'll supply all the rollers and paint brushes Quote
+Quantum Mechanic Posted January 9, 2004 Posted January 9, 2004 When is the send off party? I think there may be a thing on the 17th. But it may include visiting places that have long poles stuck into the stage. Probably will not be a PG going away party. Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 The Mailleman, his family and BDC have rented space A7. He said there is only one left in the A loop after he got his. Quote
+Team Maximus Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 I was playing around on Terraserver tonight and was able to get a screenshot of yurtville, heck at this resolution you could almost see someone holding a beer. Quote
+DenaliNW Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 They kind of look like pencils stuck in the ground . . . like those perfectly sharpened golf pencils that I have tons of but end up never using after the 2nd or 3rd hole because my game sucks. Quote
+dasein Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 Ooo, ooo...! Interconnected crop circles! Or better yet--discounting Yurt F--the likeness of an alien being: the main path outlines its body, and yurts A-E represent 5 protruding eyes! I don't remember those trees in front of fractal's yurt last year. Have they been removed? Lots of those Terraserver images are several years old. Doug and I were both thrilled and intimidated when we easily zoomed in on our house! We couldn't believe it! --laurak Quote
+bazzle Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 I do not remember the little pathways to each yurt either. This must be a rather old pic? Quote

It looks like if you pay to be a member at terraserver.com you can get resolution 6 times closer than the free microsoft images edit: Taking another look at Team Maximus' image - they must be members Edited January 21, 2004 by pdxmarathonman Quote
+Family O Foxes Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 I do not remember the little pathways to each yurt either. This must be a rather old pic? As someone who stayed in Yurt C last year...I do remember them having gravel paths up to each Yurt. Amy Quote
Team Misguided Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 Just imagine what that image would be like if they take it in June. Quote

+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 Hmmm perhaps the reason my side of the campground took so long to fill up was not so much about my personal hygine as it was about the availability of beer over on the Yurtzilla side. *throws toothbrush away* Quote
+Shotgun & Peashooter Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 Beer, beer, beer..that's all we hear about, well, ok maybe we heard something about pole danicing and special light effects. What we have to offer on the lonely quiet side, note quiet (maybe something to be said for having a quiet spot to crawl away from the shennigans), will be a jug or so of homemade vino (and we are noted for our Central Oregon Wine!), our own small effort at lighting and wild and crazy decorating. Just how many ways can you hang ivy, or dress up in it...hmm, any Adam and Eve visuals come to mind? I have to admit, neither of us intend to do any pole dancing, but we may be reeling in the middle of the night. Now am I refering to square dancing? Heck no! We may be Central Oregonians, but not all of us are desert cowboys. We do have a killer water ballon launcher, like, you can shoot those suckers 2 blocks--- if you're man enuf. Look out yurtsville! We have learned that any interseted individuals need to start stocking up on ballons and the nifty filler attachments now. A large cooler or rubbermaid container filled with water holds them pretty well, not to mention the back of a truck bed (ok, never saw that!), but, if you could get water to stay in the bed (truck bed) to float them babies, you would be the king, grand champ, sole survivor, of the water ballon fight! Now I must admit, this is a great way to entertain the kids, they'll have to fill 'em up and tie them off, hundreds of 'em. Just remember to come prepared, We'll only bring a hundred or so....you'll want your own artillery...we do have the park to ourselves don't we?!!!? Now..... any takers on the quiet side? Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 Our 5th wheel is equipped with a 50 gallon per minute pump which produces a spray measured at 3500 psi. We come prepared. Quote
+Shotgun & Peashooter Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 Holy C*rap! You're suppose to be on my team! Does this mean I have to step up my system too? I call truce with you dude, but the rest of ya, bring it on.... well, no need to single us out...it'll be a group mash. This is the response we wanted tho'! Amazing how well we seem to work together when we haven't met yet huh? Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 my apologies, I see that you aren't residing in the area reserved for people who'd rather be in a motel. We will work together. Quote
+Team Maximus Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 I just purchased "the beast" water balloon launcher which is supposed to launch 1/8 of a mile... I couldn't have Yurtville go unprotected. Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 I just purchased "the beast" water balloon launcher which is supposed to launch 1/8 of a mile... I couldn't have Yurtville go unprotected. I got nailed with one of those on San Francisco Bay while sailing during opening day ceremonies. I was sitting on the foredeck when it struck and that baby knocked me out cold. If the other boat had boarded us I would have been no use at all. Quote
soup Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 I think we are going to install air raid sirens in Yurtville, to notify us of incoming WMD (weapons of mass drenching) ballons. Then it wouldnt take too long to fire up our Patriot Missle Defense System. We should be able to knock em outta da sky without much problem Note: I cant friggen wait for this event!!! Quote
+pdxmarathonman Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 (edited) Suddenly, A42 doesn't seem like such a good place for a tent Edited January 22, 2004 by pdxmarathonman Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 Suddenly, A42 doesn't seem like such a good place for a tent It would suck to be nailed by friendly fire wouldn't it? Quote
+WestyCrew Posted January 23, 2004 Posted January 23, 2004 I like your style Shotgun, peashooter & zoom. Were camped next to you so I’m sure we can coordinate some decent panty raids over to Yurtville (aka: Where’s the hotel???). For the close in and sticky, I have a patented Navdog Marshmallow gun. Can you fill a water balloon with whip cream? Just a thought……… Quote
+Shotgun & Peashooter Posted January 23, 2004 Posted January 23, 2004 hmmm....whip cream??? Glad to have you on our team! I had thought about colored water but thought we'd have a few unhappy (but well marked) cachers! Panty raids tho', now you have me thinking a whole new line of thought! I'll be pondering that one over night! I'll have to remember to bring the telescope for stargazing (or Yurt watching to see when the coast is clear). Shhh.. don't tell 'em! Oh yeah, and my giant flag pole, crikey there may not be room in the rig for geocaching equipment, what am I thinking?! (And they thought they had the corner market on silly shennanigans)! I think we may have a bazooka style marshmallow shooter tucked away in some dark corner. I'll have to see what I can uncover, nothing like a pounding of marshmallows by the gross to cheer you up. Now if you were covered in whip creme, you would look like a giant Easter bunny (or one big bee magnet). Late note:My other half tells me the bazooka has bit the dust, hmmmm with a name like Shotgun, I'll have to see if I can rig something up. You know, just for self defense, from the "hotel yurties". I'm sure they're good folks and undeserving of all this attention. Off to ponder the panty raid idea ....... Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted January 23, 2004 Posted January 23, 2004 We have several dipsticks. those long pipe like things that you dip into a river or lake and fill up with about a half gallon of water which takes mabye 1 second to empty. I understand that inside of the mens restroom they have a wonderful porcelin thingy about 6 feet wide, two feet deep and filled with this yellow tinted liquid............. Quote
+fractal Posted January 25, 2004 Author Posted January 25, 2004 Oh this is getting good.... Soup and I are meeting tonight, and I have a feeling we will be discussing the fabrication of a unique water-based weapon Bring it on... -fractal Quote

+Wander Lost Posted January 25, 2004 Posted January 25, 2004 They are so not going to let us back in 2005. We'll be bringing our WMD as well. Quote
+Lazyboy & Mitey Mite Posted January 25, 2004 Posted January 25, 2004 They are so not going to let us back in 2005. We'll be bringing our WMD as well. WMD= Whiney Mommy Diapers? You think the survivors of Yurtmotella will really require them????? Quote
Sassquatch Posted January 25, 2004 Posted January 25, 2004 (edited) Oh!! it's like this huh. I feel a drive by comin on DAWG. With soup and fractal on the job I pity the fool. Those 2 could flat out make it rain. ( a nifty trick in Oregon). But to tell you the truth, this team Maximus is starting to scare me. dadgum glad they're on my side. The way YURTZILLA will reign down on the limp tent yurt wanabees will be UNORTHADOXT!! ( In all actuality I don't like the ratio happenin here) I'm also thinking on a squirt gun filled with tequila but I haven't finalized that one yet. Edited January 25, 2004 by Sassquatch Quote
+Team Maximus Posted January 25, 2004 Posted January 25, 2004 (edited) who me, Sassquatch? I wouldn't hurt a fly. Of course I might hit one with a high velocity water balloon but that's besides the point. Edited January 25, 2004 by Team Maximus Quote
Viktor Von Helsing Posted January 25, 2004 Posted January 25, 2004 Ah, you zimple meinded people think zat flying vater vill be your only vorry zis zummer. You vill learn, mein peoples....you vill learn. Muahahaha...Muahahaha!! Heir Dr. Viktor Von Helsing Quote
+Wander Lost Posted January 25, 2004 Posted January 25, 2004 WMD= Whiney Mommy Diapers? You think the survivors of Yurtmotella will really require them????? Don't laugh. Lil Lost Ones diapers are not something to be glib about. More often than not they require a full biohazard suit. Quote
