Castaway VI : Revenge of the Casters

[PSNCO]

I'm using IE 8, but I'm sitting on a gov't computer and God only knows what filters are hitting with some pages.

 

[Harley2001]

I see it fine iam on ipad.

 

[Mike8850]

I'm seeing the route now.
thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike, I'm using windows vista, i see the map but no route.
Also just checked using my phone, LG Optimus Pro G, same thing.

 

[healeydays]

The map should have 5 locations with 4 routes setup on it already.

Sad thing is it's setup like the last castaway.

 

[edicehouse]

I saw it last night at home no problem. I just tried using firefox at work, which I just downloaded, and does not work either. So I don't know.

 

[healeydays]

Sorry to whomever can't see it, but I'm going to have to put troubleshooting individual browser issues aside and get back to the day job. I will be still updating the site as more deliveries happen, and might come back to it at a later time when I have more time to look into it.

[edicehouse]

Appreciate the work put in. It's no biggy if I can't see it at work, and only at home.

 

[edicehouse]

Lathemaster should be to you any time now.

 

[healeydays]

Have folks been posting pictures of what came in their door, what they took out and what they added?

It's the rules folks...

 

[edicehouse]

So far it is Mike, the only one to receive and send out.

 

[edicehouse]

Says it was delivered to Lathemaster....

 

[Russianwolf]

I'm on chrome and see it fine.

Castaway IV

Box arrived yesterday .. When presented with so much beauty how doesd one make a decision in just four days ...?

Mike

 

[edicehouse]

Put them all in a bag, close your eyes and pick some out LOL

 

[healeydays]

Don't laugh. I actually did that one time...

 

[edicehouse]

I am thinking Texas needs to get off the their thumbs and get a name....

 

[Turned Around]

are you calling out Texans?

 

[edicehouse]

Being a Giants fan after that last game I don't want the box to get fumbled, and I figured they would try to intercept it....

[edicehouse]

All right moving on to theidlemind, and then Powertool-junkie.

 

[Lathemaster]

Can you move the Map link to the first Thread or permalink it

 

[edicehouse]

I can't see where I can "edit" it

 

[Joe S.]

Yell at one of the mods, you might be able to pester one of them to do it for you. :biggrin:

 

[theidlemind]

Got the box a few minutes ago!
Nice stuff in there for sure. Tough to choose.
I'll make my choices tomorrow, post some pictures, repack, and print a label.
It hits the road again on Monday.

 

[edicehouse]

Theidlemind got the package and it should be rolling out soon, so let's see who will get it next.

I figure the guys from Texas need to get it. So......

TruckFixr
Tx.Slopoke
Justturning
Seamus7227
Vanngo5d

The first one to post here and state Tony Romo is over rated will be the one to get it. LOL!

 

[edicehouse]

Been to:
Mike 8550
Lathemaster
Theidlemind (currently has it)

Next up:
PowertoolJunkie

after that:
Texas....

 

[edicehouse]

I just did the math once it gets to Powertool it will have been 3290 miles....

 

[Tx.slopoke]

Oh oh me me me!!

 

[Tx.slopoke]

Tony Romo is overrated

 

[edicehouse]

All right that was quick... PM powertool junkie your address and stuff.

 

[theidlemind]

It is off..............

as soon as I can print a doggone label, that is.
Tracking number is 9405 5036 9930 0060 3662 68
I will post pictures later tonight.

Great fun! :biggrin:

 

[Turned Around]

any plans to take this international?

 

[theidlemind]

any plans to take this international?

It is international!
We have had some from South Africa on previous rounds.

 

[Brooks803]

It already is Nic...just no one outside the US signed up this go around. On all the other boxes there were atleast 1 or 2 international participants.

 

[theidlemind]

Here are a couple of pics......

Here is what arrived, I took the bottom three.



Here is what I added, the tube in is for the Sierra series. I hope someone can make use of pre-tubed stuff. Carbon fiber and Steampunk/Spacejunk.
The full size blank is aluminum swarf. Makes a pretty cool pen.




edit.......looking at the picture it looks like I took 4 blanks. 50 years old and still struggle with counting and tying my shoes.
*big sigh*.

 

[Turned Around]

oh...... then I meant this round. I'm tired, I get a pass on dumb questions tonight

 

[Turned Around]

how does one get put on the list?

 

[theidlemind]

how does one get put on the list?

You gotta catch a castaway thread as it is getting started, then be one of the first twenty (or whatever number the organizer chooses) to sign up.
And you have to be a caster.
