ASSEMBLY '92 REPORT ·²¢2ASSEMBLY '92¢1 ·²PARTYREPORT ²Written by ¢3Reaper¢1/¢2DIGITAL ARTISTS¢1 This is a report of ASSEMBLY '92-party held on 24th July to 26th July by ¢2Rebels¢1 &¢2 Complex¢1. The party was for C64's and PC's too and also was the biggest one ever held in Finland. About 700 freax showed up... Here starts the story.. I met my friends ¢3Shaddock¢1/¢2DICTATORS¢1 and ¢3Zenox¢1/¢2DAI¢1 at the trainstation. We had quite lot stuff with us, all the bags, my tape recorder, one Amiga with all the expansions... We began the journey listening to the sound of ¢2SEPULTURA¢1... Some other freax came to the same train with us. ¢3Kissarobotti¢1/¢2PARALLAX¢1 and his pals were already boozing and made some noise on the train... The journey went quite fast so nothing special to say about it. We came to the partyplace in time,about 10 o'clock when the doors should have opened. Bullshit! There were already lots of freax and we all had to wait an hour before the doors opened. And then we had wait another hour to get through the chaos because they had to take all the information from everyone... The much presented 'Great organization' seemed to not be that great... Well we made our place somewhere waiting for other ¢2DAI¢1-members to come. They came by car with some ¢2REFLECT¢1- guys. It was nice to meet first time the guys you have been dealing with the last half year... The following hours went along by inspecting the partyplace and meeting some friends and contacts. There was quite a lot people from many different countries. We built our 'base' in a small hall. There was about 20 class- rooms in use. The main action was in a big hall (That's where the democompo was held). Even all the corners and passageways were in use... Crowd started to become more active and boozing began after some hours. (Well nothing special about that it was friday evening and a party...!) Boozing in the school area was not allowed so we had to go to the edge of a forest next to the partyplace. There was several guys boozing. There was some organizer-guy wandering around and collecting 'taxes' of bottles! Well we hide our bottles when he passed by so there was no problems of him.There was also a test in the front of the doors so you wouldn't go in if you're drunk. Some of the guys had problems there so they had to wait outside... I guess they had nice time... A small conflict was fought outside between an ¢2ACCESSION¢1 guy and a ¢2BLACK ROBES¢1 member. ¢2Accession¢1 guy had some- thing to say about the color of the skin. As the ¢2BLACK ROBES¢1 guy is black there was some misunderstanding... Later a sign appeared reading: ¢2BLACK ROBES¢1 - ¢3COLLECT THE WHOLE SERIE!¢1 SUPPLIED BY: ¢2ACCESSION¢1 ...and below the sign was a tuft from the ¢2Black Robes¢1 guy's hair that the Accession guy had torn during the conflict... Well the saturday went along by copying some stuff and trying to get food. Two things I was missing during the party were F.O.O.D. and S.L.E.E.P. But that didn't matter that much as the democompo started... We found our place in the front and it was worth that! The demo- compo was ¢;MINDBLASTING¢1 with great demos from ¢2REFLECT¢1, ¢2COMPLEX¢1, ¢2THE DARK DEMON¢1, ¢2NIKKI CORRUPTIONS¢1, ¢2SOC.BRIGADE¢1 and ¢2PARALLAX¢1. Those were the best of them, of course there was some others... Quite intereseting introcompo and of course GFX- and music-compos were shown before the democompo. There was shown a PC-democompo, too. But... Once again the organizers showed the might of 'great' organization. We had to wait about 1,5 hours or more before the compo started. And there was hot as hell in the big hall! You know, 700 people and not a single breath of wind... Phew! After the compo lots of guys left with hurry. And along them went the thieves. There were stolen lots of disks and other hardware like Hard disks and Action Replays during the democompo. (The people were all watching so no one was watching over the computers) We survived with only few bottles of drink and several disks stolen. Slumlord/DAI and some others were quite angry of their disks stolen and wandered around searching for suspicious looking guys. None of the disks they found... Overall the party was quite an experience with the great democompo. But the organization would have been better... But it would have been worse too... It's not so easy to handle 700 people gathered to have fun, is it? Here are the only results I remember from the party: DEMOCOMPO 1st place - ¢2REFLECT¢1: '¢3Sound Vision¢1' 2nd place - ¢2COMPLEX¢1: '¢3Delirium¢1' 3rd place - ¢2NIKKI CORRUPTION¢1S: '¢3Piece of Mind¢1' INTRO COMPO 1st place - ¢2VECTRA¢1 2nd place - ¢2COMPLEX¢1 3rd place - ¢2VECTRA¢1 (They released two different intros) I hope you enjoyed my article. I'm searching for some new contacts so my address is found around...
