its definitely a misunderstanding of the concept by most dudes. some of the dudes who post online camping videos (i wont name any names =)) are completely obvlivous to the fact that with every second that passes by, hundreds to thousands of dudes are gettin in before. i cringe when i watch those videos... its the SUBTLEST details that make a difference. but dudes dont think of it as time, not LITERALLY at least.... if they did, their approach would be a lot different. I always say, if your heart starts to race and a sense of urgency comes over you... you probably have a good grasp for whats going on. If you're cool and calm and you didnt get the shoes... thats probably the reason why.
