Kamakiri
The New Dynamic
The idea to get the map established stretching from coast to coast, or wherever it might be ending up, was not only to make a route for gear or what have you to travel, but maybe even for members to meet up along the way
My original idea would have been brilliant (in a Kamakiri sort of way), which would have been to send off my well cared for '87 Buick Lesabre on a coast-to-coast jaunt with AK members, with a photo journal of the trip in a subforum, and a rolling Gear Swap in the trunk, with lots of audio goodies , and maybe some member purchases going West. What could be more interesting than that! Heck, we could even sell ad space on it, or have an AudioKarma Coast to Coast logo imprinted on it. Kind of cool and something unparallelled among a forum of any kind
What would have happened at the Pacific coast end? Maybe it would make it's way back, maybe we'd give it to a member who needed a car. Who cares, just send me the plates back :yes:
But the more I thought about it, that'd be asking way too much of the volunteers.
So, instead I'd like to propose a handoff of one piece of gear, a receiver of some sort, where the members who have it in hand, sign it with a silver paint pen, and pass it on to the next, creating the symbol of a chain of members who have all met. Kind of cool, for a first venture
When we have the chain made, we'll get something to happen :thmbsp:
