Hah! Good to see it's back on track :=)

I'll make arrangements with tinnie for a hasty return to Europe!

I saw the dong on GH and all my anxiety about this went away.

THANK GOODNESS!

ps-the dongs in the wild were 3d printed by kmiller on GH. Made for the D-Squad lol

Why do you post such a low-quality photo as blown up PNG?

7.5MB vs. 143kB

Muirium · 04 Jun 2014, 20:23

When you finally upgrade past 14k dialup you won't notice image load times quite the way you do today…

Mrinterface · 05 Jun 2014, 19:21

Finally I got some time to shoot more pictures....

It was nice to see how most people added instructions with the stuff they added so most bags had little leaflets with extra info on the items. Some of the leaflets also encouraged others to take something from a bag, but not to take everything

Now I need to find good replacements for the stuff I took out........

The idea is that selling the final contents will generate cash for donating to DT and for paying for excessive border crossing costs for future surprise box rounds.

All in all I think this was a very successful round and I will start a new one soon given enough interest!

So there was a whole keyboard, after all! It definitely grew after the Atlantic. And glad to see you like the Apple mods. I dialled up the IBM factor a bit when it came near Greenock…

7bit · 05 Jun 2014, 22:58

I'm afraid it was me who started to put instructions on the bags.

Halvar · 19 Aug 2014, 13:43

Any plans on the continuation of this?

Mrinterface · 19 Aug 2014, 21:40

Yes!
