þ ß BnZli - we ruin your holidays
ÔÍÍÄÄÄ---ùùù ú ú INTRODUCTION ú ú ùùù---ÄÄÄÍÍ;
Uhrrm... I know, I know, that information package has been announced
to become released five weeks earlier, but you know, there's been that
time-wormhole thingie, and suddenly it's been the beginning of June.
Well, last BnZli has been quite successful, there were many people
attending the event, the mood among those people was great, many
competitions with many contributions have been hold and somehow that
Swiss scene meeting even gained some attention from abroad! So it's high
time to come up with another BnZli, another of these brain-blowing
eternal-sick parties where the ugliest sceners from Switzerland tend
to meet.
Har, and what can you expect BnZli #5 to be like? There will be tons
of ecstatic teenagers screaming when spotting you, a public whispering
respectfully your name during the competition, great prizes as free
weekends in New York (do we? oh, wrong file), service men polishing
your shoes in the bistro and tech assistants checking up all your whole
bunch of hardware palette!
As some of you might not have been to BnZli that far (really?), let
me explain to you what we imagine you to expect from that party and
what our aims are: For you, it's a great opportunity to get in touch
with the Swiss sceners, those people being addicted to computers and
spending almost (?) every free minute getting toasted by their monitor.
Further, BnZli's a very good occasion to present your work to other
sceners, to those who know (hehe, do they?) how difficult it is to
do something and most probably will appreciate it. And of course, it's
a nice place to meet, to talk and to have fun!
That's about what you may find at BnZli #5; and as our aim just is
to provide an unique and friendly mood and to bring the scene together,
you don't have to fear advertising campaigns or anything comparable
from our side, so it's pure fun from our side, too!
[ ... as poisoning people doesn't seem to fun enough
we're still looking for pizza cooks ... ]

ÔÄ-ù ú How to ge there?
We're about to add a map into that information package (don't know if
it'll be already included as there's that scanner_fucked_up problem),
so it should be easy enough to find it.
If you're coming by car, please notice that the Kornhausbruecke currently
is under construction, so you won't be able to come that way. We
recommend to park your car in one of the blue zones as parking is free
there on weekends or at the pay-parking at the main station. You may park
your car on the Parkplatz Schuetzenmatt (northwest of the main station)
as well, parking there is free from saturday 19.00.
However, we recommend you to come by train as the Hotel itself's situated
just about 500 m from the station, and as there are quite a lot of those
luggage cars waiting for you at the station, transporting your equipment
won't be a problem.
