Darklord Day 2017

Yep, you can solder with dragon blood since it is so metal.

 

This is how I know I'm ready for this week to be over and DLD to be here. I'm resorting to puns and I apologize.

 

Press Release for 5-14-17
FFF Faces Class Action Lawsuit: DLD attendees receiving vintage allotments sue over tote bag strength. Bags designed to barely hold 5 bottles collapse with the weight of 6 bottles leaving 4,000 broken vintage bottles at fest and 8,000 smashed 2017 DL bottles.

 

Is this the biggest event thread we've seen so far on the BA forums?

 

Don't forget the flurry of pages that will come from after the event with everyone's experiences

 

6 bottle totes would almost certainly have to stand out..... I kind of hope they pass out 5 bottle totes first and then save the 6 bottle totes for the post 7pm pickup crowd.

 

But they don't mention Dragon Abortion...

 

Literally loling my ass off

 

I would think it would be easier to spot the other colored wax from prior years. If you see red, run...

 

I can't be the only one to have this genius (not really) idea...everyone will get a 6 bottle tote. Some will have 5 bottles and others will have 6 bottles.

 

I'll trade a regular DL bottle for some Dark Matter coffee if they run out before I get there, which I'm assuming is probable since I'm sleeping in and arriving around lunch time.

 

This is just Coffee right? Not beer right? No alcohol content correct?

 

Correct. However, the high caffeine content may actually be worse for your body than if it did have alcohol...

 

I have my Dark Lord from last year in the totes, the bag isn't tall enough to hide 5 or 6.

 

I'm still new to the forum, but how soon can I post about it sucks my beer got stolen?

 

Yesterday.

 

I'd guess it would be exactly this. You get handed a bag and immediately exit the warehouse. No time to open it or anything until you are outside. In prior years there has always been staff getting people immediately out of the warehouse after getting their bottles and this won't change likely. The bottle lines should absolutely fly this year with the random tote approach as there is no reason to be in the warehouse longer than it takes to be handed a bag.

 

I imagine the golden days of bottle sharing in group lines are long gone now, with how fast they'll move this year.

 

There was zero bottle sharing last year in line to get my allotment as there wasn't even a line. Got in as fast as I could walk.
Worry not though, I'm sure there'll be plenty of other lines to share in.

 

There'll be plenty of other lines to share in. I didn't share in the line for bottle pick-up last year because it flew, but I did get a chance to share while waiting for Dark Matter Coffee stuff, for other taps, etc.
