We live in a non-linear world. Numbers mean nothing except as a label.

Didn't we basically all come to the concensus while discussing possible plans for #100 that the numbering in the gallery was basically arbitrary and meaningless?

Oh, I could dig up the thread, but I'm feeling too lazy right now. Just search for "#100" or something.........

Maybe on MR 2.0, there will be a better ride archiving/history section than just the photo gallery.
RB?

It seemed to going fine after that....I realize Cruz with us rides were M.R. rides...but is Pedal Punx?

yeah i remember people talking about what does count as a MR ride. I always thought it was the 2nd friday, cruzz with us and hollywood ridazz. but now that cruzz with us and hollywood ridazz is no more, do pedal punx count now?
btw, i think it sucks that pedal punx already called dibs on the calander for the last saturday for the whole year of 09! like nobody in the valley can use that date but them. oh well. glad i live in dtla!

Also, Noche III wasn't an official MR ride, Medieval was the MR for Nov.

Use any date you want, wherever you want. Nobody owns a time or a place.

parts 1 and 2 of day of the dead were #39 and #81. Only seems fitting that it be a numbered ride. Common sense should be used in this....
barleye12.18.08 - 9:16 pm

Yeah, shit is definitely screwy. Problem is that it is just decided upon by whomever posts the photos first. And not everyone knows what's up.

That's true. I don't mind, just saying if we keep in line with 2nd Fridays. How complicated. Haha.
imachynna12.18.08 - 9:19 pm

Haha, yeah some of us discussed this in person. In short, the photo gallery is a bit of an unwieldy mess!
Personally, I'm in favor of having a "photo czar" that sets up the galleries with an agreed (?) upon numbering system and can delete redundant pics.
Maybe in version 2.0?

OMG so many rides so many numbers!!!!!!!!!!! aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What about ride # 19220jfdzv0-034i012? I can't figure out if that was the Cyber Monkey ride or the Mushroom Pizza ride....hrrrm...
Let's just start numbering them all, and anytime there's more than 1 on any day they get letters too, like 120A, 120B, etc..........OR NOT!
i'm tired and cranky. your mom is my #1 ride.

haha good one Krista... Glad I live in the Valley where shit like this doesnt matter. Hollywood Ridazz? Skano did like two rides. If we only counted 2nd Friday's it wouldnt be close to 100. And who cares?!

if it was up to me each ride would get their own numbers starting from 1... 2nd friday 1-?, cruz 1-?, santa barbara 1-?, etc... just so you can compare! yeayy!!! or something like that. it's a mess... are there any neat freaks out there that would do this?! i guess roadblock is the only one with the power...

Anyone want to be the photo czar? I can give you permissions to edit the gallery. There is actually a lot of functionality on this site for things like that. Any volunteers? I would love to get more people involved....

Mr. Rollers and I were talking about this last week....Either of us or anyone else allowed....could totally clean up the ride numbers.
I think a lot of people think every ride is a M.R. ride....Taco Tuesday, Chinatown Mosey, Monday Six Pack, Root Run, C.R.A.N.K. mob, Sins and Sprockets, and countless others...are RIDES....just not M.R. rides...
Just a while back, there were a bunch of numbered rides missing on the photo gallery....now every M.R. ride is numbered. Maybe I'm wrong but it appears Roadblock took the time to fill in all the blanks....so it sorta does matter.

hell ya,,,,i'll do it with rollers if he's up to the task...(my first choice)
barleye12.19.08 - 10:30 am

Yeah, I'm pretty compulsive about these things, at least just for the sake of readability and consistency. It's getting hard to access the information in the galleries and it's getting harder to upload pics.
I'm willing . . . "bring it on!"

Holly cow! It is looking pretty shabby!
Can you fix the "bicycles around the world" folder?
Do we really need this much detail?

Yes, someone clean it up. I also think that the "Pedal Punks" rides need to be toned down and less frequent.

HEY WAIT A MINUTE! How could anyone say any ride needs to be toned down/less frequent?!?!? Oh man, am I cranky today...But seriously, if you don't wanna be there don't f-ing be there! Graham, you're cool. Don't be a douche.

If you still need volunteers, I'll be more than happy to help Brad and Rollers.
imachynna12.19.08 - 1:28 pm

I don't think the idea is tone anyone down, just to bring some needed clarity and a little order to the thing.

Exactly what Mr.Rollers said, thats pretty childish of you to start calling people names.

I know. I'm sorry. I just got tired of all the naysaying. : ( boo.

We should have a ride called "the real 100" and properly celebrate our 100th ride.

NAH....100 was a cool ride....the tinkering will be minor no doubt....

OH GOD PLEASE MAKE ME THE PHOTO CZAR. I will delete 99.999% of that bullshit on the first day. Then maybe people will learn to only upload the really good ones.
YES YES YES OH GOD YES I'M DRUNK WITH POWER ALREADY

Cool! I think we found ourselves a photo czar!

It happened again....the Pokemon ride was posted in the gallery but not numbered. I corrected it and posted 1 photo to the corrected gallery.
also, THE RIDE WITH NO NAME is called just that....not "ride ith no name" and not "no name ride" (stuart)

has anyone else noticed the photo gallery? The numbered rides are just the 2nd Friday rides....the cruzz with us are numbered and the hollywood ridazz are all together as are the critical mass rides too.
barleye02.23.09 - 10:31 pm

Yeah, I was tired and it was late when I uploaded those pics for The Ride with No Name...so I accept that responsibility for messing it up and labeling it the No name ride.
And if I remember correctly, sean might remember more of the details, didn't the Winter Prom and the Vegan Banana Penis ride happen on the same night. So technically they both were #100.

Hell yeah, I did notice and thanks! I would be willing to help clean up the # of categories, if you want. I have a pretty good memory of rides and know what is redundant.
