I mean this in a neutral way, but this is why you should have fully read through the instructions in the original post (or in general with anything you commit, or sign to); it was only about one paragraph total of text, and the information that was required for getting a shirt was listed after the statement about needing to thank the post, so it shouldn't have been missed.

The shirts are for the forum community, so I think the "thanks" part was a good way to ensure that a bunch of people that aren't a dedicated part of the forum community or own a twin didn't just hear about this thread, create a new account, and flood the thread for free stuff - which would have totally ruined this for all of the legitimate forum members, and owners that will be there.

If you believe that the whole event "sucks now" based on that, then I think that that bit of a filtration process is doing its job.

I wanted to chime in because I was one of the guys that didn't read, and re-read and thread multiple times for the correct sequence of likes, thanks, or replies needed to get a free shirt. I am honestly a little disappointed I'm not on that list. I can understand NW86's frustration, and I'm sure he was just saying that "it sucks" out of frustration and dissapointment. I'm sure that dissapointment will fade once we get to the pre-meets next week and start bullshitting with all the good guys in this community, because that is what the event is actually about.

Given the number of posts for this event, the number of edits on the same posts and the fact that you also have facebook invites I am not at all surprised some folks got confused or completely missed the roll call and that includes me. Hell, I think the whole shirt topic came up a few days after the original thread was even posted

I personally just hope this is the worst gripe anyone can have about the event because Bernie has been busting his ass setting this up so we can all have a good time. I'll buy a shirt if they do print extras for purchase.


On a completely different note, if you spot me at the event I will have a cooler of water in the back of my car for anyone that needs a drink. It is going to be really really hot out there so it is gonna be important that folks stay hydrated!

Someone can have my spot; I can't make it.

This! I'm also looking forward to the event as this will be the first major meet I've attended with the extended NW family, and not just a small meet with some of the local folks

Sorry man, first 50 "thanks" or an indication that you are going in the main thread according to date. But not to worry, there will be a lot of things going on at the meet and things to be had!

Planning to motor from Bainbridge through Shelton rather than detour into Tacoma.
Besides, I like the road through Union much better than I5.

Ahhhh, makes sense

It's no big deal, I am sure it is going to be a blast anyways!
