Ummmm....did I miss something?

Than what do you do to buy the items? Do you just post something in the thread saying that you'll take it?
 
When the GO post hits, you click send on your pre-prepared email to Amy-O that has a list of what items you want from the ganza. It's a first in first served, as far as I know. If you're in time, you will get an email later on from Amy-O that you won 1 or all of the items that you put in for. Then, you pay for them and they send them to you.

Most people sit at their computers with this forum, and busse combat's forum, open, clicking refresh every 30 sec or so, waiting for the GO. Don't click send without double checking that it's not a hog doing a fake GO with a close-to-Jerry's name. They do that, because if you send in the email before hand you lose out and p off Amy cause she has a lot of emails to sort through, and doesn't consider ANY posted before Jerry does the GO post.

Generally this will be explained in Amy-O's explanation post that comes after the announcement, but this will at least set your mind at ease :)
 
Note - I am not a HOG, hence why I'm not lying to you. I'm a nice guy =P. The true die-hard Busse HOGS are named so because they will walk all over anyone that gets between them and a blade crafted from INFI steel. Their dedication to achieving their goal of getting whatever they want with regards to Busse Combat is so intense that if we were to tell them they would get a unique INFI blade for it, they'd be able to solve global warming in an afternoon or so :).
 
Do I just email Amy and tell her I want to be apart of this or what?

No, just wait until it is announced here on the forums. It will be hard to miss. :thumbup:

Just leave Amy be and don't send any unnecessary e-mails, I'm sure she is still recuperating from Blade. :)
 
But than how do tell them what I want from the ganza?

First, you will see a thread posted by Jerry Busse announcing an upcoming *Ganza ("*" because the name changes every time, but the end is always 'Ganza', i.e. HumpOGanzaaaa, ExtravaGanzaaa, VetDayGanzaaaa, etc.)

Then, if not already, you will see a (or a few) new thread(s) with pix and a numbering system...

1A
image

2A
image... Etc.

Then closer to the actual event, you will see a thread with pricing and procedures (this is stated IN the thread title). ALL of the info that you need will be in this thread... FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THAT THREAD, and you will have a chance. :):thumbup:

BTW, another name for a Ganza would be "virtual show". Submissions are by email, not posts... and everyone waits for the last new thread from Jerry, which is the "GO" thread. At this point, the RACE is ON. :D
 
Oh, so if I see so something I want I would send an email to whatever email address Jerry tells me to in the thread with the pricing and procedures?

Yes. To usually more than one email address.

Here is an example of the Rules & Ordering Procedures from the last ganza held...

Here it is gang! All of the necessary info you'll ever need for the KnoboGanzaaaaa Spring 2010!!!!!!

I also put a duplicate thread as a sticky at the top of this forum, but it is locked and loaded.

The KnoboGanzaaaaa Spring 2010 will be this Sunday, April 25th between 9:00pm and 10:00pm Eastern. If the forums are shut down due to an overload in traffic, as has happened in past Extravaganzaaaas. . . I will continue to attempt posting the "Go" button until I am able to get through on one of the 5 Busse Knife Group forums.

1) http://www.bussecombat.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php?ubb=postlist&Board=1&page=1

EMERGENCY BACK-UP Plan!!!!!. . . If the forum shuts down and I am unable to post, or you cannot get on to see whether or not the "GO" Button has been posted, we are implementing an emergency back-up plan that consists of an automatic "GO" at 9:55 pm Eastern!

Your email can not be marked any earlier than 9:55 pm Eastern unless I am able to post the "GO" button before that time. . . . If the automatic "GO" is used then ALL EMAILS MARKED 9:54 pm or earlier will be put at the end of the line!!!!. . . So, be careful not to jump the gun boys!!!

Some of the knives being offered are extremely limited in number. So, be sure to include second, third, and fourth choices in your email as the pieces you request might be sold out before you get your emails in!

We need to know the total number of knives you want to purchase. You must tell us HOW MANY of each knife you want from the list you send us. You can also include how much you want to spend. For example, you might list 5 knives and tell us that you do not want to exceed $3,000.00. Please list the knives in your order of priority

You must include the knife's description and pricing in your order.

You must include your Forum name and your REAL name and address as well as phone numbers and any other pertinent info that we may need in order to contact you for payment and shipping info.

Email both the office amy@bussecombat.com and myself at busse@bright.net AFTER the "GO" Button is posted by me on one of the Busse Knife Group Forums.

WARNING!!! The INFI HOGs are a treacherous group and are not to be trusted!!! They will post under names that look similar to mine (Be sure that it says "Moderator" under my name if it is on Bladeforums) and will bring up MANY false “GO” threads from the past in order to get others to order BEFORE the actual KnoboGanzaaaaa Spring 2010 GO THREAD!!!! DO NOT fall for this as so many have in the past and be left out in the cold.

Orders are taken in the order in which we receive them.


**** Important Note: Those who intentionally overload their order request and then cancel most or part of their order AFTER notifications have been sent out, will lose their place and be put at the end of the line, where they may or may not get any of their requested knives. "Order loading" causes innumerable problems for our office. *******

Amy and the other girls will need a few days to sort this thing out. Do not expect any notifications to be sent out until next Thursday.

So, rev up your mouse and get ready for a wild one!!!

Good luck boys. . . . It looks like it's gonna be a Ganzaaaa of Knob Creek proportions!!!!!!

Check this thread for pricing, etc. . .

Oooh, I think I get it now! Took awhile, but this would be my first one so I was getting a little confused about How some things worked. But I think I got it now. Well, sounds like a lot of luck is involved, hope I'm lucky that day! Will Amy-O's email address be in the thread from Jerry?

The email addresses that they have us send our emails to have been known to sometimes change from ganza to ganza... Best thing to do is carefully read the current rules & procedures thread relevent to the current ganza (which hasn't been posted yet as the ganza hasn't been announced yet.) The email addy's that ya need to send the emails to will be in there. :):thumbup:
 
Ummmm, you missed The Blade Ganza. Man are you guys out of it.


Don't you remember how busy the servers seemed last weekend?

Oh, well, that may have been why it was so easy to score all those ridiculously cheap limited pieces of infi.

Better luck next time.

On a side note, Check the exchange for a B11 with a bigger handle, and full height convex grind Zero edge. Price is steep, but since I bought 27, I need to sell off at least 7 to cover the other 20 I am keeping.

WOW..Ok I think I get it and why I missed the last ganzaa. thanks for the honest answers. Not to mention the description of a HOG. However after seeing the blades listed for April I understand the reason to fight. I own 2 Busse's BWBMLE #604 and Sus Scrofa stocker. thanks again from the rinds.
