(von peter:dario du arsch) we were late, peter was driving like my grandma, anyway, we reached venlo safely and imidiately took the two copies of our demo, not looking left nor right for friends but only to spread the thing. most guys had already packed in and went home, (15.00 pm). but as we had shown our demo, we soon were surrounded by some friends who usually go there, like aj/trc,tt/[p], max/afl,joe cool,[p],timm/vision,hok of action,jihad and many more, hi guys! we decided to copy the shit before the fat pig cuts the power and took over a computer in the crowd. but what was this! one of our copies seemed to buck after copying it. we checked the other one out, phew, it ran. but after copying the second of our copies on that god-damn ram-expansion lameer-64 the second disc broke,gnaa- aaaargh!!! that's the reason why in venlo there was only spread a broken version of "that's design". sorry dudes, but that was bad luck for sure... besides several magazines that come up like hell now there was only spread the vision demo "mist 2" and the flash inc. demo "channel 64". after one hour venlo for us, the power-source was cut. i was frustra- ted anyway as i had no working demo anymore,but only some paper graphix to spread... the show was over and we drove back home after we had eaten some frites. peter turned on his gospel-tunes and i read the new "gridpoint observer", i got from action jackson (thanx friend!), trying not to hear the noise! magic man was telling bad jokes but noone listened... i recognized: gridp.obs.: amiga-ranks ...demo-charts: 1. vision, 7.vision are there 2 visions??!... ...anyway, gotcha censor party report --------------------- by zth/shadows and bhf/hoaxers 'we came to the party on friday, one hour after it had started. there were only swedes at the party at this time... as we had no computers along, we took place in the same room as horizon, light and groovy bits, coz they had lots of compys ! the party-place was a huge school, 4 floors high! the groups took different classrooms in all floors, so we had to walk a lot through the building. all day went and no other foreigners showed up. the only foreigners that ever showed up were excell/ikari, jch 4 other danes and one dude from poland. but most of the swedish elite was there. still the conclusion must be , because of the lack of people (and other things) : the party was lame..., or at least a major dis- appointment for us that had gone all the way down there. still i feel sorry for the censor dudes, coz they are cool guys and were good hosts! if there had been more people, it would have been ok! at the party you could buy candy+coke and there was a pizza-bar close by. the demo-comp. -------------- the demos were shown in a little hall on sunday morning. the demos were voted like this: best demo 3 points, 2nd 2 p. 3rd best demo 1 point and everyone got to vote results : 1.flash inc prize:3000 sek 2.vision " 1000 " 3.censor " 500 " it also was allowed to vote for their own group. demo conclusions: flash had an ok demo with lots of animations and other things flash always has released (only stack- improvements). vision had a large filled vectorpart (animated) and a part with a rotating scroller. (and some good graphics, but very un- original though) censor had some nice parts, and one with a 4 screen high eddie-piccy, joystick-controlled(ofcoz by bob) and one part with an fli-hardware-scroll! my fgavourite partydemo was bergamygg iii, by groovy bits, coz it was very original (and that's more important) by zth of the shadows... (written on the train back home) ...and some additional words by bhf of hoaxers... 'there were too less pornomags and films at the party. the party would have been totally lame if bob, shark geggin/censor haven't been there + some other cool guyz like : terrax/ flt,vision,i+t,an-x-starion dude, nova/flash,masterjam and odin of s451 goblin and flamingo of light and hz. it was about 190 people present, mostly c64 guyz, but many left the 2nd day, only 50-60 were present at the democomp. it was cool with some heavy drinking. lot's of people did that. the school locked like a mess, but the party was an intime experience i got to know people better than i would at a longer party. bhf/hoaxers there is someone i would like to mention : bob, geggin, slaygon, shark ...nice pals. especially the disco in town was nice : masterjam messed around with this ugly girl,regretting like mad the day after. groovy bits, light, hz, flt, viper, excell,s451 +++ zth and bhf signing off ' okay dudes...for any kind of reports call the states...XXXXXXXXXXXXXX box 9021 !!! -return
