I seemed to have found a flaw in my Secret Recipe distribution plan.
Out of the 200 people who were picked from the drawing 25 percent never responded to the multiple emails I sent letting them know they were selected and a few warnings that they would lose their place in line. So
fair warning has been given and those that did not respond are now off the list and I will pick 50 names to replace them from those that were not picked the first two times. This time I\'m giving three days to either buy or at least contact me and RSVP your copy. Any disc\'s left are going to end up on my Auction with a "buy it now" first come first serve till they are gone.
If you are reading this and you are one of those that were picked in the first two drawings and have not purchased your copy yet and still want to, go here and enter your name and email to RSVP your disc because after tonight there will be no getting back on the list.

is this thru Paypal still or something else?....
just wondering, if this DVD is going to be an Internet Only item or if the release will be anounced on the ever slowed down Bucketboard.

This pertains only to the drawings we had here last week. You will probably hear about the general distribution on the Bucketheadland board first.
Well I just got my third email asking me if I have extra copies of the DVD.
If you have a question about this please feel free to ask it here in the forum so many can hear the answer and it will save me a lot of email typing. There are no extra copies, all are accounted for from the drawing. I haven\'t misplaced or forgotten about anyones DVD, with the exception of a few who were waiting on back orders of something else and the arrival of payments by mail, all the DVD\'s have been shipped. If you were in the first drawing and haven\'t received yours yet, contact me. If you were in the second drawing, they are all shipped but they may not have all arrived yet. emails for replacements for the no-shows will go out tonight, they are being selected from those that were not picked the first time.
I was just wondering, I didn\'t mean to ruffle yer feathers Travis...
sorry I was\'nt on either list so the big beefy Bouncer, Bounced me out of the way..
I\'ll wait for the rumoured 2007 release.
Chris
good going for giving folks another chance to get the dvd,travis!most people would just say"eh,they don\'t want it i guess so forget it".
so all the dvds are accounted for but your going to choose 50 more people form the lists who didnt get chosen.. yes???
Yes, I have now picked another 50 names and emailed them. These were chosen from the original list of those not chosen already. They have till 6:00 PM pacific time tomorrow to respond . The response so has been very low. Despite my culling the original list for double registrations by removing doubles of email address, last name city combinations, IP address, and I even looked at doubles of emails with too many of the same domains I think fully 25 percent were still double registrations and that\'s why no response. At this point I\'ve done all I can to be as fair as I can to try to insure that only one DVD goes to each person who registered and try to give as many as possible a fair shot at the few DVD\'s that are left.
This has been an interesting study in character values of some. But I do think for the most part the vast majority of the DVD\'s found fans with as true a sense of fairness as that that I tried to employ.
After tomorrow I will take whatever DVD\'s are left and place them a few at a time on my auction with a buy it now price the same as they were selling for, so no bidding up.

that is rediculous that people would try getting multiple copies not to mention ruin others chances of getting in on the dvd action.at least this way secret recipie will get to people who may have been screwed by the double email add-ers!
thank you Travis i ordered mine from the first batch.. and me and my Friend Spencer signed up at the same time. i got picked. he didn\'t.. and then today he was picked out of the 50.. thank you so much for giving us all these chances to order the DVD. and it is unbelievable that someone would try and snag multiple copies. or someone signing up more the once so they could get better chances.. i would have checked their IP\'s and if thier was more then 2 from the same.. i would have deleted them off the list all together. i mean 2 signups is bareable but 3 or 4 or more is over doing it. but hey thats just me. i mean i only singed up once and im glad i was picked. ;D. thanks again man u are awomse.. i been wainting so long for this dvd and i got it like 2 weeks ago and its simply amazing..
Hi Yravis
Got my copy of Secret Recipe. Loved it. Your the man. Where are all the easter eggs on it. I was able to find just one. Also, what became of the Giant Robot shows that were shot on pro video last year in S.F. ? I thought for sure that they would be on the dvd. I tink they shot the L.A. knitting factory show also (i was t all three shows).I also video taped the L.A. show my self.
Other than the Thanatopsis video I don\'t have any info on why what was used or not on the DVD, I\'m sure others will chime in.
I hope this will be one of the last posts I make on the DVD. To the best of my ability I have tried to give everyone a fair chance at getting one. The very last step is to offer them to anyone who wants one a chance to buy it first come first serve on my auction page
http://tdrsmusic.com/cgi-bin/auction.pl
Please be kind to those that don\'t have one and only buy it if you didn\'t get one by some other means. Also please only use the "Buy it Now" link on the auction page, I don\'t want to see any bidding, buy it now only or I will delete the auction and re-post it. I will be sprinkling these on the auction over the weekend and I expect they will be gone by the first of the week.
just got mine!
thanks Travis

But if I have to I\'ll call and get it working some how Thanx once agian your Friend BigAl....You made my month of June! YES! :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
I\'m glad people are finding the DVD, but hitting the buy it now button is not enough. Like the email says when you buy it now you have 24 hours to go to the purchase page and make payment. Of the 10 DVDs on the auction today only 3 people have actually bought it. Believe me, I\'m tired of looking at these things, I want em out of here. Here\'s the email in case your not getting it for some reason. In the next few hours the first buyers time will expire, I don\'t want you to miss out because of a misunderstanding, but I can\'t have these tied up in limbo with so many wanting them.
To all Buy it Now auction Buyers of Bucketheads Secret Recipre DVD.
Buyers have 24 hours to go here:
http://tdrsmusic.com/tdrsauction.html
and make payment on their DVD. Enter your amount ($30.00), a brief
description and your auction number. After 24 hours you will lose claim to the DVD and it will be put up for auction again.
Thank you all for responding so quickly, makes my job a lot easier.
Hi Travis, I can\'t thank you enough for placing the last of the dvd\'s up for auction !! I missed the first drawing, wasn\'t selected in the second drawing or the 50. And, yes I was one of the punks emailing you about availability of the dvd. I was so excited when I saw the auction, I bid just before I hit buy it now. I am so excited, I can\'t wait !!
Thank you so much !!
Aaron
