A celebration of the Motorola 68000   
CPU and its derivatives.              
                                      
Compo machines include Amiga, Atari ST
classic Macs, Sega Mega Drive, SNK Neo
Geo, and more.                        
                                      
In addition to the usual computing    
stuff, you also get to enjoy the      
beautiful Finnish countryside. There's
going to be sauna and grilling, and   
you can also take a swim in the lake  
if you feel like it!

22nd to 24th May 2026, at Aulangon    
Suuri Huvila, Hameenlinna, Finland    
                                      
There's a very limited amount of      
computer spaces available, and are on 
a first come, first served basis. Beds
are available for most visitors (also 
first come, first served), and a hotel
(Scandic Aulanko) is only two         
kilometers away. Important: if you    
sleep at the party place, you need to 
bring your own bed linen!             
                                      
The party place is easily reachable by
car. You can also take the train to   
Hameenlinna and then take a taxi to   
the party place.

entrance to the party. We will contact

your entries before the party. We'll  
do our best to provide an internet

both for submitting entries and       
voting.

go in the wild compo.                 
                                      
We will provide the following         
machines:

Additionally, we can bring the        
following machines if requested well  
in advance (i.e. at least one week    
before the party):                    
- Amiga 1200 with TF1260 accelerator  
  at 66MHz, 128MB RAM

For any machine thats not listed here 
be prepared to either bring your own  
machine (with knowledge of how to make
it work with an OSSC or similar) or   
provide a pre-recorded video of your  
productions (mp4 format preferred).   
The latter is the safest bet. We may  
also pre-record demos for the compos, 
depending on technical limitations.   
                                      
Compo prizes will *not* be mailed out 
to remote entries. However, you can   
arrange to have someone at the party  
pick your prize up for you.           
                                      
We cannot guarantee a compo stream,   
but we'll give it a try for sure. Be  
sure to subscribe to the Dekadence    
Twitch channel.                       
                                      
All entries that are shown on screen  
at the party will also be shown in the
party live stream, and will thus also 
be uploaded to our Youtube channel.   
           CODE OF CONDUCT            
                                      
Please be respectful toward all party 
visitors. Racism, sexism, homophobia, 
transphobia, and other similar        
behavior will not be tolerated. You   
will be told to knock it off, and     
continued bad behavior will get you   
ejected from the party. Additionally, 
disruptive behavior due to extreme    
inebriation will also not be          
tolerated. If your only purpose in    
coming to the party is getting        
shitfaced and being annoying to       
everyone, stay home. In short, don't  
be a shithead, regarding anything.    
                                      
All this is in addition to the rules  
of the venue itself and Finnish laws, 
which must also be followed.          
                                      
We're all here to grill, chill, and
