From C64 Diskmag Wiki
THE EASTER PARTY + DIFFERENT THINGS +------------------------------------+ as you all might know, phenomena on the amiga and light held a party in alingsas between the 17th and 20th of april. we were there and most of this chapter will be dedicated to this party. +------------------------------------+ first a little party report... wednesday the 15th of april me, the spy and creeper decided to take the car and drive down to the party place. the party was about to start on the 17th, so we decided to take the boat over to denmark just over the day to buy booze, candy etc. but when we arrived to buy our tickets we were shocked by the message saying that you must be 23 years of age to take the boat over. and the time was only 13.00 fm. we never got on that boat, so we drove to "systembolaget" to buy some beer and then we went back to the party place, took a warm room and started to drink. later that day, some guys from shape and megastyle arrived. at first they didn't like us that much (and we didnt like'em either), but after creeper and the spy had drunk some more beers they made friends with'em. we even talked about doing a cooperation demo! how about that? more and more guys came. mainly amiga dudes. but around 12.00 o'clock on the party day start, loadsa c64 guys were present. some of them were: flash inc. extend ---------- ------ morpheus electric crept creeper origo the spy ----- bx crest ----- beyond force maduplec, mac ------------ sam antic gremlin ----- the whole gang fairlight --------- triad the whole gang ----- king fisher horizon alfatech ------- tdm kjer aktie bagder zagor dual crew mastermind --------- + the rest metal maniac panoramic pretzel logic --------- ------------- bj0rn the gang richard nygaard + the rest loadsa cool guys! (read more about which groups that were present in the "party facts" section.) the party went on like all parties does. drinking, spitting, swearing, farting, burping, talking and photoing were some activities. but there were also some stupid guy that walked around the party stealing things. for an exaple, my friend metal maniac of dual crew lost two cart- ridges. later, d'arc of topaz was caught. some guy had seen some stuff in a car. it belonged to d'arc. he refused to open the car, so the police had to open it for him. later he had to go with the police to the station. the final day it was time to show all the contributions to the different compo-cathegories. they were c64 demo- compo, c64 graphics compo, amiga music compo,amiga democompo & amiga graphics compo. really cool contributions on the 64 but really boring on the amiga. the c64 results look like this: demo compo: 1. origo 2. beyond force 3. antic gfx-compo : 1. tnt of wraith designs 2. creeper of flash inc. 3. atte of extend at the end of the party, the place looked like a mess!! our crew and some germans and some others didn't make it much better. we spilled out every coke bottle we could find, hitting things with a baseball bat and spitting. after that, the place were like a battle field. really cool. the germans started to play kickball with the coke bottles. toilet paper all over. this was really funny! ten o'clock on the 20th of april we drove home. back home sweet home. +------------------------------------+ here's some party facts for ya: ------------------------------- place : ice-hockey hall and a sport- hall in alingsas, sweden. a party for c64 and amiga. number of guys present: approx 780 who payed and maybe 50 who didn't. groups present : flash inc, antic, triad, extend, origo, beyond force, horizon, fairlight, dual crew, tpf, zone 45, pretzel logic, panoramic, crest, wdl, shape, megastyle,hysteric, noice, oxyron, enigma, topaz, brutal, dunex, vision, hitmen, parados, conic, chromance, x-rated, illusion, booze design, censor and maybe some more. demoes released : ----------------- lunacy 5 / antic venimus vidimus vicimus / tpf digital dreams / noice legoland 2 / fairlight psychothic dreams / brutal partytrap / beyond force elysion / origo winning demo / dual crew coma light 4 / oxyron winner in the compos : ---------------------- demo : origo graphics : tnt / wraith designs positive things : 24 hours open shop, big screen to show demos etc, organization, many c64!

vote for jtm. after my opponion the only cool logo was the visual reality logo. the rest looked like ripped graphic by various groups: blackmail, flash inc etc. +------------------------------------+ PROJECT-X WAS IN CO-OP WITH DEADLINE!! PROJECT-X WAS IN CO-OP WITH DEADLINE!! -------------------------------------- - an article by jity (ex. project-x) - the cooperation between deadline and project-x had existed (so, fuck ya, derbyshire ram!) ------- btw, to all who are thinking like this fucking asshole that this coop never was, then just take a look to the headlines #2. or just ask the cure (sysop of desintegration) , nme/dl , extremist/empire and you will see. but now, dis coop splitted and project-x died ! some members are going to build anot- her group ! i left p-x, and chipster stopped all his activities! i'm searching for a new crew to join ! so try to catch my addy somewhere or leave me a messy on the boards i'm on! later on ... jity * break da rules! * +------------------------------------+
