1000 competition !!

[Perrow]

I'm bummed, the drone box I planned to include doesn't drone , more spacious and plucky... Any body know of a cheap drone box with more of an Indian sound? Like harmonium or tamboura?

I'll probably start mine today. If my smallbear shows up

I could tell you, but then you might win...

Further, I hold the position that we don't have 1000 pages until we've filled all of page 1000, partly because I think so and partly because I need the extra time to build my entry

you could always try tacking a few diodes to ground at the end, see if that evens the output as well as adds some texture ...
could even try in line b2b diodes for some crossover dist, if you have enough signal... alot of octaves do 'sitar sounds' due to the crossover distortion, in line diodes could add a little of that flavor so long as you have a big enough signal to get over a diode threshold...

I suspect the longevity of page 1000 itself will be no more than........ <60 minutes. Just a hunch.

Wasn't there an agreement a few pages ago to give 72 hours to entrants AFTER we reach page 1000?

I think so! I wasn't saying the contrary.

[slacker]

We discussed the 72 hour thing, don't remember the powers that be agreeing to it.

I think they did (but I'm neither sober nor sure, happy midsummer by the way).

[cloudscapes]

The way I understood it, is it doesn't matter if you post on page 1000 or after page 1000, just as long it's as of page 1000. I'm guessing we'll burn through like five pages on that day. 

As for the duration that entrants are allowed to post, I don't know what was decided.

I'm more and more considering my entry fee as a donation 

[deadastronaut]

^ me too...been really busy lately.. ....still it goes to a good home eh!...

[slacker]

Hard bit done

[Perrow]

Interesting.

[deadastronaut]

wtf?.....

[Govmnt_Lacky]

Uhhhh....

Am I the only one who remembers slacker's DSP display from a few pages ago??

It still haunts me!! 

[Leston Braun]

I am ready and waiting for page 1000. Finished an hour ago.

Now I'm considering building something else to fill the Pictures-thread with, but I might as well wait.   

[cloudscapes]

Once I recieve my PCB, shouldnt' take more than a couple days to do mine. Half a week maybe. But till then it's a nervous waiting game. Might be in a week. Maybe two. Maybe three. 

[garcho]

Between a mad schedule and failing in attempts to rectify armageddon or the number 1000 with my build, I gave up. But, even still, I felt a little tinge of dread seeing Slacker's latest post. What showmanship! It'll be hilarious if he builds a LPB or sili-face or something.

[deadastronaut]

^ ha ha...digital lpb-1..

i'm looking forward to whatever it is...and all other entries....it'll be cool.
