Priceless v2 will be very similar to how it was originally planned. It will be a little cooler (80′s during the day, 50′s at night) and a little more of a celebration of the end of summer, rather than the beginning, but a celebration of our community nonetheless. Its been a crazy summer and we have a lot to celebrate. There will likely be some changes to the music, art and activities we originally put together, but we’re doing our best to keep things as close as possible and to fill in the gaps with new delights. We will continue to update this site with this information as it comes in and email you if needed. So please, mark your calendars.

We understand that there are will, undoubtedly, be a few of you who will sadly not be able to gather with us because of the rescheduling. It is our priority to help you out. We have been talking to Inticketing and together have set up a refund policy. The policy is that refunds are available to all ticket holders for the next TWO WEEKS ONLY (ending 11:59pm July 31st) with no exceptions. See In Ticketing for details. However, we would like to encourage folks to not seek refunds through In Ticketing if possible. This is for two reasons. First, the service fees are non-refundable. Second, False Profit is charged a small fee for every ticket refunded. So instead, we encourage you to exchange your tickets with friends. If you have willcall tickets, you can exchange tickets by changing the name on the will call list by visiting this page and following the directions.

In addition to these services, the Priceless team would like to assist those who are wanting to sell tickets and buy tickets get in touch with each other. Our current plan is to use tribe.net to facilitate this. There are two urls: one for ticket sellers and one for ticket buyers. Please post on the appropriate link if you wish to participate. We will also be importing this information into our ticket page on this website for ease of viewing messages and contacting others. However, to post, you will have to join Tribe.net.

As always, thanks for your patience and excitement. We can’t wait to see you in the forest and on the dancefloor. Until then, enjoy your summer.

Best,
All of us at False Profit

Black Rock City, NV – ‘Inevitability’ is usually a term incompetent economists wield indiscriminately and talented economists avoid at all costs. There is nothing inevitable about the moneyed economy—the single exception of course being the unequal distribution of wealth. However, the well-respected Life-Quality Economics Institute at False Profit, LLC, has just made an announcement that could change all that.

“Our Aural Economy division is reporting that, against all odds and predispositions, False Profit, LLC will once again be throwing a party on the Playa,” explained Jay Oberhelman, Director of the L-QE Institute. “We had to find a model for this kind of behavior.”

They are calling it ‘Tuesday Night Syndrome’, though it is now assumed that there are other inevitabilities in the field of life-quality economics. It has even been suggested that Priceless, False Profit’s annual campout may fit this model of inevitability.

“We believe it is a Pavlovian response to high-quality basslines,” remarked Lazlo Jamf, Chief Psychoanalyst at the Institute. “It has been verified that False Profit was recently exposed to very good beats, which may have triggered this conditioned reaction of throwing a Tuesday Night Party.”

Spokesperson for the company, Nevada Valentine, advised all participants in the life-quality economy to show up around 10pm at False Profit’s camp at 4:30 and Esplanade on Tuesday Night.

Why is commons licensing important and good? This is just one example.

Read on to increase your exposure to this hot segment. Our first pick is to use Tor and Privoxy to make your online activity anonymous. (Vidalia and Torbutton can make this easy.) False Profit is currently multiplying returns with a Tor relay at our headquarters.

The latest research from False Profit, LLC indicates that letters, and words made from them, continue to compete strongly in the conscious mental activity market segment. Despite recent challenges from YouTube and other blinky things you click, the 26 traditional Latin characters and their associated punctuation and numerals are still providing solid returns.

For example: The October XLR8R cover proclaimed “BERLIN WASTED YOUTH” to announce their special issue devoted to the city. After cutting out each letter of this headline, our senior staff of financial linguists put together a number of attractive anagram investment packages. With a small up-front mental payment, you too can leverage the latent power of deep structure for maximum entertainment. (Particularly if you turn the “W” upside down to get “M”. But you do have to use all the letters. Scrabble rules apply for deciding if a word is a word — unless it’s really, really good.)

Post your XLR8R cover anagram remix photos on flickr in the False Profit group pool with the tag “berlinwastedremix” and they will show up over in the left column. Bonus points, of course, if your anagram is vaguely poetic, actually makes sense, or references the content of XLR8R. We’re pretty sure you can spell “Tiesto” with those letters.

Trackback from XLR8R, November 14, 2006: [...] While surfing the web we ran across the October issue of XLR8R, only to find that particular cover had sparked an anagram face-off among users of False Profit’s website. All of the “attractive anagram packages” were put together using the letters of XLR8R’s annual city issue, which focused on Berlin this year. [...]
