What's new

Update on the Sydney Ideal Org situation

Depends on your datum of comparable magnitude. Before a donor got $0 for a $500 donation; now they get a $10 shirt. That's a ratio of 10:0 = infinite expansion!

Correction. They are having an Ethics action applied. For giving only
$500 they have a horrible shirt to remind others of their low condition.

I wonder if they would let me change the logo to the text:

"I just donated $500 to the ideal org fund and all I got was this F**king t-shirt!"

More Ideal Morgue Promo

I wonder how it's working for them....

The Public Division would be buzzing with effective action and new people :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: and :goodluck: with that .... :D

what do you get?

what do you get?



another identical looking "idea orgue", made is Dave Boy's factory of little helpers, just like the ones who help Santa Claus at the north pole

I can just see all the little people running around there putting the stuff together.
Would be a funny a cartoon or charicature for somebody to draw, me thinks...

Wow! Long time no see, Purple Rain! Good to hear from you.

I think Castlereagh is still sitting empty. They have a real dilemma with their fire permit and I think they have it shoved solidly in the too hard basket and are just hoping their public don't ask about the 11 million dollars they coughed up for the renovations. :confused2:

Thanks, Kookaburra. I've been having a pretty intense personal journey. I'm just poking my head back out in the real world a little now, catching up with some old friends from school, that sort of thing. Life has been interesting. Glad to hear the Castlereagh thing is still a disaster. I saw what you guys did with Dundas St, and I was so impressed. I'm really proud of you all. Anyway, take care. I do hope to catch up with you one day.

Best,
Purple

Went by there last week it's still empty and nothing has changed with the signs on the front door.
The stairway to nowhere is still going there.:D

Hey Purple Rain,
I was just sitting at the busstop in front of the Sydney Org & its still boarded up with the same poster explaining renovations comming soon, God I would be pissed if i'd given 100's of thousands in donos to see they have done F-All & continue to do nothing, so who knows when they will get their act together........& who cares!

Indications from behind the scenes are that the ideal org is not being built yet and there are no immediate plans to start. They are short of money to get it built. There revenue raising during the economic crisis has been seriously slowed down. I wouldn't be surprised if nothing happens at all this year.

They will have to move out of Hercules St soon and I suspect they will just keep ANZO.

Also, my guess is they will move the major RPF site out of NSW soon.

Since the thread was bumped...

I don't have much skill in construction management, but it looks highly unlikely the Ideal Org could be done this year. I think I saw a new Ideal Org opening schedule that said Sydney was now slated for beginning 2012, can't remember where I saw that though.

As far as I am aware they have not finished Phase II fundraising which is required to start construction (An additional $1.5 Mil is required AFTER that), though my data is rather out of date. If anyone has any info on the fundraising status please post! By PM is fine if you have security concerns...


Also stay tuned this week for a special Sydney Org leak! (will be posted in the leaks forum, hopefully on Thursday :coolwink: )

They announced in March 2010 that they had reached the target (with a big dono from one of their public) to start renovations and would be starting within the week. Yes, folks, I said 2010. It's not a typo.

Before 2pm?:D

:lol: Meaningless to Zhent. He's not an ex, he's Anon, so has never lived the Thursday at 2 psychosis.

But I will say this.

Zhent, if you can get this posted before 2 pm, it will crash OSA's stats at a crucial time and they will be in trouble and have no time to handle it before it is reported. Maximum impact. :timebomb:
:D

Oooh, this is getting exciting!!! I love surprises! :happydance:

I like to check every so often that they haven't gone all flourishing and prospering on me while my back has been turned. It's good to hear that things are downstat as ever. It warms the cockles of my suppressive little heart, whatever cockles are.

Exciting about running the RPF out of town, too! It's so un-Australian for one thing. I definitely consider myself anti-gulag. Hopefully the new detention centre will not be able to be spirited away altogether, though. It would be unfortunate if the inmates were shut away from all help and hope.

Anyway, can't wait to hear the news!

Hey again, Sir Facer! What do you reckon? Do you think they have a misunderstood on "soon"? Hehehehehehe! Oh, I kill me .... boom boom!

Still nothing going on as of Sunday.

I'll put my money on "still boarded up with the same sign on Sunday, this time next year".

Actually, I think they will just sell the building as they can't move back in. Stupid Scilons blew it. :laugh:
