No takers, change the odds.

[Adam in CO]

I have takers.

Traditionally, the West Coast has been the dominant piking team. But they can't hold the title forever. I'm thinking about putting some money on the East Coast this year.

OK Noob, we'll spell it out for ya:

(1) Say you're going to Moab
(2) Talk for 9 months about it - get psyched up
(3) At 90 days before departure - start the "not sure if I'm going" talk
(4) At 60 days - Make up lame excuses
(5) At 30 days - Talk about how you wish you could go, but can't
(6) At 7 days - Come up with a new conflict. Say you actually planned to go until this new thing just came up.
(7) At 0 days - Don't show up.
(8) At -10 days - Say how sad you were that you didn't show up, but "will be there next time".

Hey, c'mon man. That's major breach of ettiquette. You know you need to hold off until the the 7 day window to use that one.

Wish I were that close. Then I would not have to plan to be away from home for 6 - 8 weeks to do this! The hardship I must endure to attend. The sacrifices I must make to appease the Hummer gods. Oh, woe is me. But I will be there.
