I'll take a stab at this...

I think the idea is to use a DS running homebrew interfaced with the Christmas trees. The idea is to find wireless networks (war-driving or walking) and to mark them with RFID tags. However, you have to check to see if someone else already marked it with an RFID tag. Using the trees and DS to detect RFID tags causes the DS to make sounds, apparently a la Guitar Hero III. Furthermore, the chalk design a person uses to mark the network and RFID's is a D-pad.

If some random person saw an idiot on the street with this setup making noise, they'd probably call the police.

My favorite quote from the site is "War-Chalk a TAG KNOB." I have no idea what that means but I can't stop laughing.

War-Chalk A TAG KNOB! Holy crap that's awesome! That may well be the next largest internet catch phrase...next to "LEEROY JENKINS!" I'm with sgt_easton on this one. I can't stop laughing either.
