»CL0: Spoletium 4 Party Report
»CL6:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Written by »CL5:Rigel »CL6:of »CL5:Trinity
»CL1:Unlike the previous years, the party
was held in a big room that was
'donated' by the local church (that
was not such a big problem though,
we had fun anyway). »CL8:About 20-25 people
attended this year's edition, which
was also the expected number of
visitors.»CL1: There was also an Amiga
coder from Mankind, (Krabob), who
drove all the way from France to
Spoleto just to bring a couple of
productions :) Although all the coding
entries that were submitted were only
for Amiga, there were people from the
Linux scene (myself), the PC scene
(3 guys), and the rest were all Amiga
sceners/enthusiasts, Most of the time
was spent socializing and enjoying
the all-Amiga demoshow directed by
Mod3m of Darkage (and a few others).
»CL7:There was a hopefully reliable source
of alcoholic beverages (beer), and no
kind of LAN»CL1: as the only connection to
the Internet was someone's GSM phone
(and that connection was used to
update the 'live event' section of
»CL1:Spoletium's website). Just before the
competitions started, most of us went
to a local pizzeria, pizza and white
wine simply rock ;)), where we had
quite a good time (and it was rather
cheap, by the way). Another small
detail, there were *lots* of girls in
that pizzeria ;). Back to the party
place, another round of beers, and
the compos started, (the party results
are at the very end of this small
article).

The 4 channel Mod music competition
was the first, with a few good entries
and a ripped song. This compo had the
highest number of entries, by the way.
»CL8:Then the graphics compo, where the
overall quality of the entries was a
bit higher than usual for such a
party,»CL1: and the flash competition with
just one entry, guess who won ;).
The wild compo followed shortly
thereafter with a diskmag and
a music disk, and the 4k compo took
place with just one entry as well. The
winning entry for the intro compo was
quite nice, the other one was some
kind of joke intro. »CL6:The demo compo
featured an intro from DCS&RNO (which
should have been shown with the wild
demo entries, imho)»CL1: and a joke demo
that was quite funny (too bad it was
»CL1:not 100% in English). The compos ended
and it was time for.. Free Beer. Yeah,
one of Spoletium's sponsors was a
local pub located in Spoleto, which
kindly donated all that beer, once we
all moved to the pub :).
»CL8:It was a fun party to attend, mostly
because of the small number of people
involved and maybe because the
organizing team planned almost
everything,»CL1: just to ensure a smooth
scene experience.
I look forward to attend next year's
edition, how about you?
